Background
Depends on youEducation · Career · CoursesShowHide
Depends on youread from published reviews and public records · low confidence
Take her for a lecture-led Political Science or SocSc 14 class if you will do the readings, write the papers, and consult before submitting. The SocSc 14 comment calls that path an easy B+/A with group work. Lean away if you need fast written feedback, application-heavy exams, or a high-energy discussion class — the other usable review calls her so-so, talk-heavy, and potentially intimidating. Confidence stays low because only two comments survive the unused comparison rows.

Chill if you read, but every assessment matters
positive

I was pre enlisted in her class last year she’s really chill and nice but I agree on the comment here that dont get on her bad side. Make sure to read before class because she gets annoyed when she notices her students doesnt use the materials she provides. I think we did about 2 quizzes lang for the whole sem and it was essays (I dont remember much). She wants a good written essay to give you a high score and an average will just give you a passing. In my experience there was barely any thing to grade, so every assessment matters. She doesnt return the works immediately and I didnt even see her comments on my assessments. Her class doesnt require recits, she just explains a lot with her slides. She’s okay, make sure to know what youre writing :) Just read a lot and study the materials in her gdrive you’ll be fine :))more

yes!! Ma’am Mariel was a really good lecturer and made each synch session interesting. She discusses the readings really well so that helps a lot if you have a hard time understanding them.
In terms of outputs, most were group works so it helps to have a friend or two in class. They were all really manageable since it was typically just 1500 - 2000 words or less.
A downside was that she wasn’t really responsive to emails so it was hard to reach her outside of the classroom and didn’t give grades back except for this one group paper where everyone got pretty low scores. Somehow ended with a B+ though so I can’t really make an accurate comment on her grading.more

So-so lectures, simple memorization exams, read the readings
positive

Hi! Ma’am Quiogue is a so-so prof. Her teaching style doesn’t really require much recitation, and she talks for most of the meetings. Her exams are pretty simple and straightforward, more on memorization type rather than application. Usually has essays too. I think we had 1-2 group reports, and a big final paper.
A major tip I’d give is to make sure you read the readings she assigns! She won’t really ask for recitation, but she can tell when the class isn’t prepared.
Another thing, don’t get on her bad side. She can be kind, but she truly can also be intimidating if you don’t respect her.
Best of luck!more

hello poo! Can I ask another follow up question?
Regarding her requirements, specifically essays, does she require the class to write it on-the-spot (and hand-written)?
Thank you po! 💙more

Chill class. Has activities onsite and most of them are by group. Most of the major requirements are by group too except for the final synthesis paper and the first ever paper for SocSc 14. Easy B+/A with a bit of effort. Gives feedbacks kinda slow and her lectures are pretty okay naman but of the time she's just reading off of somewhere. Be sure to consult when you can since she grades those papers higher when you consulted her first.more

Monologue lectures, late grades, malabo instructions

I’ve honestly struggled learning from her lectures because all she does is monologue 🙁 also i’ve never felt so….gaslit by a teacher. 🙁 my group tried to get feedback from her on our outputs but she either is barely available or returns grades late….also her instructions are so malabo but she makes u feel like it’s your fault for not following (at least for me and my group lol)more
