Leans worth takingread from published reviews and public records · low confidence

On the one kept LLAW 113.03 writeup she is kind, resource-sharing, and flexible on deadlines, with activities that helped understanding; the caveat is monotonous sync delivery. Take her if you will use the slides and recite; be wary if you need a high-energy lecture. One voice only, so this is lean_take rather than take.

Suits

Onsite is boring and not a generous grader

Hi!! adding for onsite! While she has good reviews, she’s no longer a first choice of prof for me 🥹 While I enjoyed her class, I have to be honest about her classes for those who are considering taking her in the future. This is for on-site specifically! I took her online and she’s fine naman, but I noticed the following about her onsite classes: > Powerpoints are montonous AKA boring—-you’ll probably zone out. I’m a student who does not usually zone out so this is saying something 😀 > I actually did not find her to be a generous/motivational grader. > Though she tries to incorporate activities for the class participation, she finds a way to make it competitive instead of collaborative. AKA forced ranking post activity (other groups rank the other groups etc.). Yes the forced ranking is graded. > Also don’t try and make your performances funny, she’s not really the type to be humoured by that. > Attendance is on the dot, she sets a timer. After exactly 30 minutes she takes attendance again—-this time for those who come in late. Coming in 5 minutes later for either period does not get your attendance marked. > Makes it hard for you to supply proof of sickness for excused absences. if you are sick, even if you provide a doctor’s letter, she will require you to go through the process of contacting OHS and will only excuse your absences once OHS talks to her (screenshots of your convo/clearance from them will not suffice). This seems like standard practice, but she is unnecessarily pretty stingy and inconsiderate about attendance. > Does not reaally take into account your participation. While she does give class participation activities, I have a hunch she does this to keep in line w the prof evaluation rubric. She mostly cares about quizzes/test, so do well in those! > Workload was on the lighter side, but almost everyone I know did bad for finals :”D She said she would curve though, so take what you will with that information. > Does she curve? Downwards 😀 The grade you calculate may be the grade you recieve, or lower. > Also if your wifi crashes during an exam she’ll mark your unanswered questions 0. Keep that in mind. > Onsite quizzes are suuuper easy tho! Her online quizzes on the other hand…. 🥲 > While her classes are “hybrid” you need special permission to join the zoom if you cannot make it to class for whatever reason. Special permission in advance, with doctors note etc. By the time she checks it, class is done na :’) so she just marks you absent lol. Tips for survival: If you want to get a specific grade, make sure your marks are unmistakable. A grade that is easily calculated and is obviously your target grade. If you have multiple good grades and one or two not so good grades this could land you in the C/D terrirory for her. Unmistakable means good grades for everything. Do well in the tests and your individual tasks + get good groupmates and you should survive naman! B-able. From what I heard she’s also D-able and C-able so 🤠 And these are reviews from good students, who I know work hard. I never had these concerns online, so onsite students beware. I’ve had better law profs that actually helped me enjoy the subject and learn from it. Yes she’s survivable, but would not necessarily recommend. TLDR: While i’m sure she’s a good atty (heard she topped the bar), I don’t think she’s a good teacher nor fair grader.more

Hello! I had her for LLAW 113.03 😀 General comments: - very kind and pretty lenient - appreciates it very much when you recite! - provides all her PPTs and resources ❤ - flexible with deadlines. She asks her students when they want quizzes and deadlines to be set and isn’t too strict when you pass stuff in late - will put you into breakout rooms for sync class activities and gives activities that relate to the topic. This was really helpful in understanding the material! - zoned out a lot in her sync classes bc she can be a bit monotonous Requirements (this is for LLAW 113.03 but maybe she’ll use the same format!): - quizzes every 1-2 modules (i think) - homework/sync activities (just have to read through some cases and apply the law) - midterm & final exam - final group work (creating our own contracts! Total of about 3 papers) - gives a lot of extra credit work! Like quizzes and papers to pull up your grade ❤ Grading: - very generous in grading! She’ll even write motivational comments when you do bad AHAHHA I think she gave me a grade higher than I deserved xDmore

Tricky quizzes but you can pass with reviewing

positive

she gives an hour for quizzes and 2.5 hours for exams. they are matching type, t or f, multiple choice, and multiple answers which got a bit tricky. then the essay can get tiring bc we had to read the lazada terms and conditions and say what we thought should be changed thye're tricky but I think with enough reviewing, you can pass easily!more
