positivePOLSC 121

Hi Regina Louise Caburnay! I did end up taking her for POLSC 121, and I highly highly recommend doing so as well! She really knows what she's teaching, and not just in the academic type of way— she knows it because she has experience in education policy and local governance nga talaga. I agree tho 'di siya nagcucurve and not exactly life changing 'yung class mismo. But I was pretty excited to take Public Policy and she did not disappoint. Hope this helps!more

Chantrice Santiago Joaquin Balina uhm hahahah sir will not fail you and the PE is all about form talaga parang dancing siya

positive

hello! took sir's penjak silat class last year. he's really chill with teaching movements and stances and overall a really kind guy. he's very understanding if someone isn't physically able to execute the moves well, as long as he can see their effort in practicing. his class is definitely A-able with enough practice and overall the class is not very physically demanding and doesn't have sparring, aside from practicing the moves with your partner sometimes. would recommend to enlist in the class with a friend so that you already have a partner for the sem

positive

Very beginner-friendly! He's very chill and super nice in assisting. Had him during 2nd sem of 2023-2024 for PHYED and can confirm that we had all the assessments the others here have previously mentioned. A-able as long as you take class seriously and work on your forms, and don't forget to have fun feeling like an earthbender lolmore

positive

easy A imo! iirc we had 1 group presentation (online), one written quiz (lowkey easy... he just listed the qs and gave the entire period to ans it while other ppl were performing the quizzes so he wasnt rlly looking or paying attention lol), and for quizzes, he holds them after every "move" or module of u doing the movements which he allots 2 meetings for before the quiz! theyre super easy and he grades rlly high! u should take him hehemore

positive

Pretty chill, tbh. The coach is the one who brought the sport in the country so you can expect he really knows his material. You will be memorizing routines but you can do this by group/pair but graded individually. You can ask him to demonstrate the routine and take a video of it so you can study it.more

Shen D Sta Maria Quesadilla. ano nangyari sa varsity training natin?

Really great, really chill. Gasaido was not my first choice, but I actually enjoyed it. The routines are all fairly easy to memorize, but in the end he is particular about your form and stance so take note. He did give a written test, but that was like once? And it was really easy.more

It’s mostly practical, except when he asked us to do research on the martial art. He’ll teach the whole routine first, practice for several meetings, then give a practical exam. After that he’ll teach a different one, and repeat the process. Eventually the routines will mesh, but as long as your foundation on the basics is strong you’ll be fine~more

IF IT HELPS YOU WILL THINK SIR IS GONNA EARTH BEND OR SOME SHIT BC IF YOU DO IT RIGHT LOOKS HELLA COOL

Took her class and honestly pretty reasonable and fun class naman. The subject itself is very reflection heavy and each session honestly feels like a retreat. One unique thing about ma'am's class is that she requires you to do social annotation which is basically you read the readings and annotate with the class asynchronously. Reading heavy yung class pero keri naman. Ma'am also hosts synchronous sessions twice a week which is just a reflection session lang. She's really nice and understanding, just make sure you're being reasonable.more

positive

I think this is her first time teaching an LS talaga ): Although I do know her personally, my experience with her is as a musician and composer. I do know she’s understanding and I feel like that would translate online naman. more

Bump hows her workload + teaching style + grading

positive

Got her for a different class (and not online, not sure if she taught already since the pandemic started) but would say she's one of the best profs ever!! Public policy is really her stuff and she gives very practical insights on the topic considering her background in education policy and local governance. Gives great feedback and constructive criticism on your work, very clear rubrics. Make sure to stick to the deadline in your syllabus because if you miss a requirement, you miss it (at least pre-online setting). Also, stick to the rubrics bc she checks them very objectively, if you fail a requirement you fail talaga haha pero getting a good grade is not impossible either--again just read the instructions and rubrics carefully and you'll be fine. Very practical prof to get, gives you great insight on the messy and exciting life of being a public policy practitioner hehe don't miss the chance to take her class :)more

positive

Straightforward prof. Clear lessons. Easy to digest readings. Gives feedback. Is sweet n nice. Grades nice (flex ko lang A ko😎). She also knows her stuff so her lessons are insightful Just follow instructions. Be clear and concise with your inputs cuz she seems like the type that doesnt want nor need zigzagsmore

Ma'am Anne's class was arguably one of the best classes I took in POLSCI. Learned a lot of tips and tricks on how to make our very theoretical course more practical. It's the only course she teaches in undergrad since she's very busy with admin work but you won't feel like she doesn't have time for the class. N.B. that I took this during the quarterly set up so there might be a change of style but her class was a very clear set of 5 modules designed to be learned asynchronously with synchro sessions at the end of each module. Each module essentially has a reading, the course content, discussion board, and recorded video of the topic for that specific module which is at most 12 mins. This made the module very easy to understand and digest especially because it was designed carefully. On course requirements, I believe there were 2 (?) indiv reflection papers, 2 DBs, and 1 Group Paper divided into, formative and summative assestments. If you do plan to take her, just read the rubrics and the syllabus carefully and always go back to that for your outputs to get a good grade. Maximize consultation with her as well for your group policy paper since a chunk of the grade will come from that. You'll surely learn a lot from her if you take her. Easy A? Not really. But she won't fail you naman. Goodluck 😊more

Hi! Took Sir Dado second sem, s.y. 2022-2023, and kinda okay naman especially if you’re new to martial arts! He teaches more on the fundamentals. I don’t remember the lessons and assessments na but it was like a group report, then quiz after based on the reporting of the group, then like practicals that tests your stance and movement. We also had a final practical exam but it was just a combination of what you’ve learned so far! No sparring din (afaik) which is okay for beginners. Honestly, it feels like you’re earthbending but more beginner friendly. Overall, take him especially if taichi slots are none na. Got an A naman but with effort of course!more

Hi! Sending an updated review lol Everything said about previous reviews about maam are very outdated… she gives a quiz per module to ensure you read the module readings + there was barely any graded group works (all we did were group dbs) + and overall DLQ just made the days longer… Other notes about maam are true tho, mabait naman siya and tried to get us to engage and that there’s no hard deadlines for journal reflections. But its also important to note shes VERY strict with attendance and will mark you late the moment you come in class after the bell rings (whether its 1 min or 10 it didnt matter) overall review: shes okay grading wise i guess… but theres probably other easier DLQ profs to take tbhmore

positiveDLQ 10

Hi! Got her for DLQ 10 last sem! TLDR: relatively heavy workload, A-able with effort, she's nice but quite strict 1. Modules and Requirements - Ma'am's modules were quite long. It was a mix of text and pics/vids, but you can make do with just skimming through it. She locks modules so you can't proceed to the next page if you don't view/comment on the previous page. - The readings were the most tiring part tbh. Usually, she gives 3 readings per module with 20-40 pages per reading. They aren't super tough reads tho. - Per module, there's 1 reading which requires "social annotation" It's like a DB within a reading where you highlight/comment/discuss specific parts of the text and reply to classmates' comments/questions - Requirements weren't too heavy. We had 3 journal reflections, 2 group discussion boards/papers, and 1 final paper. Each paper is max 1000 words so super kaya. 2. Sync Sessions - She has regular sync sessions every week. Nothing too heavy, she just synthesizes the module content - She tries to make syncs engaging but they can be draggy at times - IMPORTANT: She takes note of attendance!! Although attendance is not part of the grade, I think she kinda favors the students who regularly attend. But if you can't make it, you can email her ahead and she's accomodating naman! - Prepare for breakout activities HAHA you either share reflections with ur classmates or do an actual activity w ur group 3. Grading - Ma'am grades pretty high! Average grade for journals was 37/40 and 91/100 for group and final papers. As long as you explicitly connect ur reflections to the module and readings, you should be fine - She usually returns grades pretty late tho 4. Prof - Ma'am is nice and motherly! There were times we asked to extend deadlines and she would accommodate. - She doesn't like to give work over the weekend so her deadlines are usually on Friday then she opens the next module on Mondaymore

hello! taking her right now for this sem :) Workload • 5 quizzes (1 per module) • done via canvas but onsite. she also offers a paper version • critical reflections per module as well • sometimes, may discussion boards! • no orals Overall, i really love her! she is so chill and motherly vibes. her class feels like a therapy session lol. def learning a lot from her. grading wise not sure because she has not returned the reflections hehe but i did get the quizzes back 😅 kaya naman B+/A :)more

Aw I feel sad na walang reviews but I hope this helps... I had her as a retreat director before. She has a very calming voice and sings really well (iirc she has an album). I enjoy her lectures as well. She is very nice. That's all I can say tho.more
