Winter 2024 - Best professor I've had a UCLA so far. Extremely engaging and thoughtful lectures. She is very sure to make sure everyone understands the concepts she is teaching and encourages discussion throughout the lectures. Very fair grader as well. Class is set up for you to succeed, you just have to understand the concepts discussed for the midterm and final, which are both in-class essays. Highly recommend this class and professor.
