Do not trust bruinwalk... You will regret it if you take it. Ifkyk
FYI, the grade distribution on bruinwalk is NOT reflective of what the actual distribution is for post covid... I came into this class hoping I could learn something about Asian Americans and get an A, and received the lowest grade ever in college. Just avoid if you are standing at the same crossroad.
This class is pretty heavy with readings and material, in addition to the writing requirement of 20 pages for Writing II. BUT Professor Tamai makes all of the time worth it! She is the nicest professor I have ever had and really wants to help and connect with students. She gives lots of comments and feedback on essays that REALLY improve your writing skills in a couple weeks/papers. Overall, she really made the class enjoyable and the class was full of interesting material. :)
I really liked this class there was a ridiculous about of reading but there was no test just essays so as long as you went to the lectures you should be good I did the reading just in case. The discussion is mandatory and the attendance for it is very harsh. The homework in this class is reading and she has videos you have to watch and fill out worksheets these can be pretty lengthy. Was a very easy class would recommend. Also, I loved the lectures they were very organized and easy to understand and Tamni was always quick to respond to emails and really nice.
Take this class, pay attention, and learn something. Best professor you can take this class with and highly recommend if you need writing credit. Sure there's a lot of reading, but you have plenty of time and most of it is useful. If anything, the books are more important than the assigned reading, and if you know someone who already took the class, it's the same.
I really liked this class! I took it my first quarter at UCLA and the professor was really passionate about the subject material. I did the readings for the first few weeks and then I slacked off a buuuunch, but if you listen to the lectures in class and take decent notes based on those, you're good to go! Write your essay on something you're passionate about, because the whole class will be way more enjoyable then. :)
take this class! it will feel so rewarding. i'm not quite sure why i got an A- bc i worked really hard and it makes me kinda sad but i still absolutely loved the class, the material, and my TA haha. took it my first quarter of my first year and it made my transition to ucla a little more special.
Professor Welty is so sweet and supportive! She actually tries to know everyone's name, and she gives almost everyone a PTE. I am not an AA major but this class was very manageable. The readings are very interesting and easy to skim through. Professor Welty's lectures are very engaging and interesting, and she is very helpful during office hours. She also lets her students decide which concepts to be on the finals. Professor Welty is one of the most approachable and sweet professor I ever had in UCLA. This class is also very interesting. Highly recommended!
Dr. Welty Tamai is a wonderful professor. Her lectures are clear and easy, and she allowed people to view them for up to 1 week after lecture during this online quarter due to COVID, and I found that really reasonable. She removed the midterm and made the final really reasonable (just answer one of a few broad prompts and reference course material). The essays for this class are fine - I would recommend meeting with your TA to figure out what you need + go over your essay, but everything was pretty reasonable for this class considering it's a Writing II. There's a fair amount of reading for each week for discussion, but you'll be ok if you skim. Overall, I would recommend this class, especially because Dr. Welty Tamai is teaching it!
Professor Tamai was fantastic in helping students transition from high school to college. There was a significant amount of reading, but her lectures made it totally manageable. She offered a "diary" extra credit, and actually read them. She definitely cares about her students and their well-being, and has a super structured class that makes it easy to follow the material.
