CS 477
It (the instructor's teaching) can't be improved. It's at its highest level.
Marin is an awesome professor and deserves to keep teaching. She is awesome in every way and I hope the best for her future she helped me so much.
She knows the material super well. And is excited about it!
Marin is very enthusiastic which has made the course much more enjoyable.
AAE 350
Marin is receptive to student questions, and it's evident she takes the time and effort to help make sure students understand the course content.
Marin did a good job during discussion keeping us engaged and interested. She did a good job of explaining and simplifying complex topics.
I really love having Marin as my instructor. The way she explains topic materials, making it easy for students to understand.
Marin is very knowledgeable and speaks with a great sensitivity about poverty – even when it got sad or controversial. Discussion sections were structured in a way that made it easy to engage and I enjoyed hearing Marin's input. Additionally, with the transition, Marin and the other TAs handled everything with great consideration - but I would say that Marin stood out as someone who provided understanding and resources.
AAE 322
Marin was an excellent TA for 322. By far the most helpful TA I have had throughout my courses here.
