Not only is her class easy and fun, but she is also one of the most caring professors I have ever had. She makes the lectures fun and makes you feel included. Makes the homework and quizzes so easy you basically do the test/quizzes group test. 10/10 would recommend. Not only is she like your friend in class but she is your friend outside of class.
Amazing professor!! She is very passionate about criminal justice. Makes learning fun and interesting. I will be taking her again for criminal law! i highly recommend her. Genuinely have nothing bad to say

A very caring teacher, all you have to do is pay attention to the lectures in class and you will pass!!! she is also really helpful if you have any questions, at any time of day! i loved taking her
I truly appreciated this class and Professor C, as she preferred to be called. She cares for her students education and managed to be accessible outside and inside of class. She will put her 100% all the time and taking her should be an easy A+ if you put your 100% as well!! Recommend her (:

Professor C is a great professor she really does care about this subject and her students dearly would 100% recommend her!
I love Professor Castillo so much! Ive had her 2 times now and she is such a delight! She is respectful, caring, and will always be there to help you whenever you need it. Her knowledge for criminal justice is astonishing and if you are a CJ major, I highly recommend taking any of her classes
I've taken Prof. C three times now and she is amazing. she keeps the class super interesting and engaging for her students. She has clear grading criteria, follows her syllabus, provides extra credit, gets everything graded fast. She has weekly quiz and written assignments, but as long as u read the chapter/presentation youre good. TAKE HER!!!!!!!
I took Professor C. this semester and let me tell you she is the most awesome respectful professor you will ever take. She really cares about her students and will do anything to help them pass. her weekly assignments go along with the PowerPoint so there so no reason for you to get a bad grade. I highly recommend professor.
Professor Castillo is one of the best criminal justice Professor I have had. She is super understanding and very sweet , also since school has been online very creative as well. Work is very easy and she gives extra credit.
Professor Castillo is one of the best in criminal justice. She is super understanding. Work is very easy and she gives extra credit. Her creativity since the change in the semester due to covid has been phenomenal. This is my 2nd class with her and I look forward to my next one!
Super sweet! Such an angel <333 easy work
Best teacher I have gotten in my college career. Shes always excited to teach us and always pumped no matter what time it is. She is my favorite teacher for sure and she not only teaches us about the subject but helps us grow as individuals as well. One last thing she doesnt make us do stupid discussion post! If she is available take her class.
I love this Professor! She is so sweet and kind- genuinely cares about her students! She is very passionate about criminal justice and about learning the topics! She shows different perspectives on views that make learning really fun and interesting! The work is not hard, it's just about doing the work and participating. 100% would take again!

AMAZING PROFESSOR! She's so sweet and no matter the day she will always respond to you! She is so nice and I learned so much from this class, I learned while being stress free, that says something. If you're thinking about taking her, DO IT! You can tell she really really cares for her students.
Professor C! She is AMAZING, Seriously the most caring professor I have ever had. She is genuine & cares for ALL of her students. She knows her criminal justice stuff & runs a very outlined structured class. Everything is scheduled from the start, there are never any surprises. Her lectures are inclusive & interesting. You will LEARN the material.
She's a nice & passionate professor. She is understanding and her lectures aren't boring, there are normally 2 weekly assignments online. The textbook was used in her class, but rarely.
Professor C was a delight; she took the time to establish clear grading criteria. Textbook is required. The online course focused on 2 assignments a week, which was super easy. Opportunity to make up points at the end of the semester! She responds fast to emails or texts, so reaching out to her is never an issue. Take her; you won't regret it!
She makes everyone feel capable. Cares about all of us.
Prof C genuinely cares about each student, and she wants each of us to succeed.
Professor C is incredible! I took this class as an elective. She is genuinely passionate about this subject and loves teaching her students. She is very accessible to reach outside of class. The textbook is "mandatory," but all the information you need for your weekly assignments is in the PowerPoints she provides. I would totally take her again!!!
Professor C is amazing. She's passionate about what she teaches. I would recommend her to anyone looking for CRIJ classes!! The workload is very light and fair- I learned a lot from her teaching
Professor C is so amazing. She's easy to get in touch with either by email or remind app. Shes a very easy grader. She also gives her students a chance to turn in late assignments for full credit. I loved her online class. Take her class you won't regret it.
Professor C is an amazing professor, very optimistic and friendly she makes her lectures very easy to understand and remember. She creates slideshow that are extremely helpful when it comes to taking an exam and assignments that are due. This is a great class to take if you want an easy but in depth understanding of Criminal Justice.
Professor C is an amazing! I enjoy reading her PowerPoints that she gives us for each chapter. If you do the work you will pass with an easy A. You do not have to worry about overload of work, she is easy and well organized. I enjoy her class and the assignments. If you are looking to study criminal justice take her class, you will NOT regret it.
Professor C is incredible and genuine. She is very passionate about what she teaches and you can tell by the way she presents the chapters with a lot of detailed research. I would recommend her to anyone looking to take CRIJ class.
Professor C is literally the best CRIJ teach I've ever had. Even though it was an online course, I was able to learn way more than in any other classes. She was very clear with instructions and datelines, and she provides plenty of information for us to be successful. Don't think about it, take her class. You won't regret it.
Professor C was very straight to the point with every assignment. Everything in D2L was clear to find. She corrects you if you make a mistake. Easy Class!
Everything is open and easy to understand, she makes learning the criminal justice system easy and comprehendible. The work she provides is easy and understanding to schedules and individuals.
Professor C is a great speaker, she does a great job at sparking group discussions which makes every class interesting. Her teaching style is simple and direct, it is clear that she enjoys teaching and that she loves criminal justice.
This course was fairly simple. Her class consists of a weekly powerpoint presentation, four to five questions for you to respond to, and a quiz. There were only a few easy exams, and you also had to finish a powerpoint at the conclusion of the semester. You should definitely enroll in this course!
Professor C is a great professor, she is super caring, and her class is fun to take. Each week there is a PowerPoint she goes over in class, along with a stop for thought and a weekly quiz. The only tests are the midterm and final, then a powerpoint project at the end of the year. (group optional)
Professor C, is very good and caring teacher. This is a fairly easy class you just have to do the work and it's not much. She gives her weekly lectures through PowerPoints, and at the end there are some stop for thoughts and a weekly quiz. There are two test the mid and final exam and one project. Very easy to pass if you do the work.
Mrs. Castillo is an amazing professor. She makes the assignments fun and easy. There is quizzes and work sheets to complete however her power points help prepare your for the quiz. This is not a stressful class at all. Do you work and you will pass.
Professor C is by far the best professor I have ever had. Right from the beginning she made it clear that she was available if we needed anything. She actually cares about the wellness and success of her students. She is very accepting and quick to answer. Super simple and easy class. 10/10 recommend Professor C! You won't regret taking her class.
Professor C is the best and most amazing professor you will have; she is nice and caring. Also, she is great at teaching and explaining the lecture and will always ask us questions and give us an opportunity to ask a question as well.
She is simply Awosome
Professor C is amazing! Her lectures are fun and super engaging! The test are also very easy as the questions come straight from the homework assessments. She even gives a few extra credit opportunities. Highly recommend!
I really enjoyed taking this class online. The workload is very easy, just a quiz and a few questions from the power point each week. I had a really hard time this semester with a few personal things going on in my life and Professor C was so sweet and caring. She allowed me to make up any work I missed, and she gives plenty of extra credit.
This class was pretty good for an online class for a full-time employee. I was able to manage this class because Professor C would always keep us updated, and she is a great communicator.
This was a very smooth class for me since I am a full-time employee. She was better at communicating when things were coming up and gave you a chance to submit any work not completed for a grade at the end.
This professor is really amazing and she is really understanding. Castillo really makes everything really easy to understand.
Is very passionate about what she teaches and cares for her students!
Class is very engaging and Professor C puts a lot of effort into her lectures.
Professor C is such a great professor! I took her Intro to Criminal Justice class and I loved her lectures, she will go over a new chapter every week and we would do 1 assignment and 1 quiz with each chapter. She tries to make her lectures fun! Take her class you won't regret it!
Professor C is a very good professor. She cares so much for her students and is very dedicated on helping them learn so much and pass her class with flying colors.
Didn't need the textbook because she gave PowerPoints on each chapter. Exams are the same as the review and she gives some extra credit if needed. Lectures are easy and attendance is 10% of the grade. Class was a breeze
Profesor C. is very caring and loves what she teaches. She's engaging and tries to make sure everyone understands what she's talking about. She's understanding that there's other things going on in our lives and helps us as much as she can to ensure we succeed in her class, as well as in our others. 10/10 would reccomend
This review isnt for extra credit shes just that great of a professor.
An absolutely phenomenal professor. I took this class mostly just for the credit but ended up walking away really fascinated by the topic. If you are looking for a good professor who knows her stuff and makes it engaging, this is the one.
The professor leaves little and easy homework and she is accessible at any time if you have questions.
Professor C is the sweetest and best professor you could ever have. She's understanding, helpful, and truly cares about her students. Her lectures will never bore you (she knows what she's talking about), and the workload is light. Lectures were engaging; we did discussions in class and interactive games for extra credit. Meant to give her 5, not 2
Professor Castillo is my favorite professor I have ever taken. She is so caring, will work with you, and knows so much about criminology. Every week, there will be a short quiz and a couple of questions that you write answers to. I learned so much about this field that I was new to, but it wasn't a hard class. I could not recommend her enough!
If you are majoring in Criminal Justice I would recommend Professor C!!! She was so amazing and gave good feedback. She had 12 chapters 12 writing assignments which were quizzes, and 12 stop for thought (short answers). Attendance is required but if you miss days you can fix your grade with the extra credit. Lots of group activities in Kahoot.
I was so nervous about taking online course but professor Alicia made it easy going, very understanding as long as you communicate with her. The quizzes were very easy straight from the book or powerpoint. You do have a SFT for each chapter which is could be from 1-4 questions each and must be answered with at least a paragraph EASY A.

I took this professor for my first semester and loved her so much that I took her again during my second! She is very caring, has great lectures, clear assignments and schedule, makes great study materials for the midterms and final, and has extra credit opportunities.
Very fun and easy to understand professor, class is mostly PowerPoint presentation though you still learn. The class is not hard to fail since it is mostly just a small quiz and a stop for thought every week. Textbook not necessary since the PowerPoints are just summarized versions of the chapters.
One of my favorite professors! Definitely recommend taking her for your CRIJ classes.
Professor Castillo was an absolutely fantastic teacher. She really truly cares so much for her students ,and I know if you take her as a professor then you will not be disappointed. I learned so much from her corrections class which is my career goal ,and I got to enhance my knowledge due to her very knowledgeable lectures. Follow her powerpoints.
Amazing communication, very understandable, she had amazing lectures and very interactive with her students.
Excellent professor, understand the student point of view and a beautiful person in a professional manner.
Amazing prof- the workload is easy there weekly assignment and 1 ph essays each week. Most of the info you need will either be in textbook or slides that shes created and shared. the mid term was paper, but everything else was online. Just do all your work and don't fall behind that's really the only reason I got a C. this is a great class.
Professor Castillo is a very easy grader, and if you are to arrive late she will simply just ask for you to meet after class so she can get your name for the attendance. There is a project which can be done in groups if you want, but you should no worry cause she is a very easy grader.
If you want to take a criminal justice class just for credits then she is definitely the best professor around. She is also a pretty easy grader as well as the work you have to do in her class is minimal. I would say the hardest thing in her class is the project near the end of the semester, but other than that her class was great.
Professor C's class was very easy and fun. It consisted with a chapter every week and on sundays a short quiz over the chapter as well as a stop for thought. She is very nice and very understanding and she does know what shes talking when shes teaching. Her class is never boring always looking forward to come to this class.
Professor Castillo is a great professor. She is a very understanding person she will help you with whatever you need. For assignments every week there is a stop for thought which basically you answer a few questions explaining what you think about what she has asked you. Also there is a quiz you do every week which has very little questions.
Awesome professor. She grades pretty easily and I appreciate how authentically she cares about her profession and students. Class is somewhat writing-heavy but prompts are not too difficult. She is very passionate and knowledgeable about the Criminal Justice system and very kind-hearted ("Love yourselves and be kind!")

She was a great professor, 10/10.
It's an easy A, would take again. She's very understanding and allows late work. Also gives many extra credit opportunities and her assignments are very easy. The most difficult part of her class are just the stop for thoughts. A quiz for every chapter and a stop for thought every week, a midterm, and a final.
You'll love Professor C, her energy is amazing even at those early classes and the sweetest! Work is pretty easy if you pay attention!
I loved professor Castillo's class, she is so knowledgable about her topic and even though there is a lecture every class, she makes it interesting and easy to follow. We had one writing assignment and one quiz each week, a midterm and final exam as well as a big final presentation. I would definitely take her class again.
She is a fun and easy going professor
Professor C is very nice, and she offers a lot of lot of extra credit. Her assignments are very easy and manageable, and she accepts late work. Her lectures are very informative. If you take any professor for CRIJ, I highly recommend her.
This class was so easy , her lectures were good everything was always due on sunday at 11:59 i would love to have her as a teacher again.
I took the 6 week course, and it was great! I recommend Professor C, and anytime I reached out to her she responded back promptly.
Prof C is awesome!
She is amazing. Professor Castillo doesn't give up on you so there is no excuse that you should not pass this class, i love her class
Mad chill and caring
She is easily one of the most involved professors I've had and it very much easy-going. I would 100% take her again
Very good. Accepts late work 🔥
Professor C is amazing! She's timely with grading and all the assignments are clear and super helpful. Every week I look forward to her class and she always prioritizes student learning. She's very enthusiastic and gets a lot of important information across in her lectures. Take her and YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!!
What other should know is that if you really like criminal justice than this is the prefect professor you should be taking. This professor is one of the best when it came down to lecturing she 100% knows what she's teaching about and does it the best.
Very easy and simple course. She is kind and very forgiving with late work.
One of the nicest professors Ive ever had, she's very chill and makes her lectures fun
Best professor for this subject
She was anazing, so understanding
I had Professor Castillo in both her corrections ,and Crime in America classes. They were so enjoyable that I will miss having her as my professor. She is very intelligent ,and will work with you if you have any difficulties which you should not since she is a legit professor. Her teaching is so awesome that he lectures really make you learn.
Great professor!!! Greatly recommend. Lots of writing though and you have to pay attention to the documentary's that she plays or you won't pass.
She is extremely easy going and kind.
I honestly loved professor C's class, she always put effort into her lectures and made sure that we were engaged in it. She also gave us multiple extra credit opportunities, and was never a strict grader. She accepted later work very often and was always easy to work with.
She is amazing at lectures and is very detailed. She inspires and make the classes fun with group discussions.
Attendance isn't really mandatory but she does give a grade at the end of the semester for attendance so I guess its just like bonus points. I personally didn't get the textbook because we learned each thing in class with a presentation and all the assignments are easy if you just pay attention.
Awesome Professor, as you can see by her rating.
learned a lot she helps if needed , and very understanding of others situations really essay work overall .
She does care every single student and what I've learned her teachings is understandable of the material given, the meanings of the criminology with her class it has the assignments as well with quizzes and test so get ready with that and at the end you will truly see how criminology is really all about. this class is what you need for criminology.
Really nice and sweet professor and helps you really understand and engage with the subject.
great teacher overall
She's amazing! Very understanding and lenity. I highly recommend taking her class.
Professor Castillo is a very caring and merciful professor. She is also really funny and prefers that her class engages with her. She makes the course very interesting, gives easy assignments, and provides reviews for the tests that really help. She is always available to help you when you need it, no matter what it's about.
Amazing teacher, lectures weren't boring. I actually learned stuff, teacher was very nice and respectful.
Amazing teacher, very nice and respectful. Lectures and boring and actually entertaining. Group projects are easy. The work is easy, and I actually learned stuff in this class.
She's a great professor and always there if you need help, she doesn't mind if you're late, and she takes late work. But overall, great personality!
Professor Castillo is an absolutely amazing teacher, it was extremely easy to get the material down because of the way she lectures. She's very positive and upbeat so she never fails to put a smile on everyone's faces. I couldn't have asked for a better criminal justice professor.
1-2 assignments a week, with a midterm and final/final project. Super easy assignments that take about 15 minutes to do total. When it comes to the professor, she is super nice and lets you turn everything in by May 1st. She actually tries to make the lectures and assignments fun instead of just reading off the screen.
She is very kind and cares about her students. When she lectures she is very outspoken and clear. She makes it a very fun class to be in and learn.
Very nice teacher that is always there to help and give feedback. Only has two assignments per week besides the midterm and final.
She is caring and wants her students to succeed.
If your major is criminal justice I really recommend Professor C because she knows a lot about criminal justice, I really loved her course that I taken all 3 of them. She is very kind and she helps you with anything when u need it.
She is very kind and entertaining which is on par with her extroverted personality. You are expected to engage and speak during lessons and her feelings get hurt when people just sit in silence so just talk. I bought the book for the class and we didn't end up using it so keep that in mind if you end up taking the same class also has great notes.
I have and will continue to recommend Prof Castillo. I have taken all the classes she teaches, some online and others in person. Her positivity and genuine joy in teaching shine every day. There is a short quiz (answers straight from PowerPoint) and one Stop For Thought a week. For extra credit, there are Kahoot games that double as a review.
Very nice teacher, don't take advantage of her.
This class is super easy as long as you just do the work. As long as you put in effort, she's an easy grader. I really liked her and the way she teaches. There are a lot of extra credit opportunities, and it's worth it to actually go to class. I would absolutely take her again!
This professor is great though it was a short 3week course it went by fast. Her class is straight forward and always responds in a timely manner.
Professor C is great, thoughtful, and straight to the point took a short 3 week course it went by fast and theres was a lot of reading but the class is easy and straight forward. She provides feedback and always responds in a timely manner. Will definitely take her again going forward.
Professor C is great, thoughtful, and straight to the point took a short 3 week course it went by fast and theres was a lot of reading but the class is easy and straight forward.

Professor Castillo is great to have. She is compassionate, caring and thoughtful. She gives plenty of extra credit for those in need. She also is consistently reminding use of due dates and gives great feedback. She is also very understanding and easy to talk to.
Professor is awesome! She explains things in a way that's easy to understand and really cares about her students. Plus, she gives extra credit, which is super helpful. Definitely one of the best professors I've had.
She is amazing and very helpful. I love the way she formats her assignments and I learned so much!
Honestly, this class was one of the best I've took so far. The professor had everything well planned, and easy for us to navigate and guide our self through. Great teaching and feedback is always there when you need it. I would recommend taking this course.
She a great. The professor is sweet and caring. She doesn't mind late work as long as you have a good excuse. And great lectures!!
Prof. Castillo is phenomenal! Her 6-week summer course was easy and understandable. We did 2 powerpoints a week, 2 short quizzes, and a discussion post that is graded based on engagement with the topic. If you read the PP's and textbook, it's an easy A+. She also offers extra credit! Highly recommend her, she's a sweetie!
This professor was great she emailed me back fairly quickly and everything was attainable just putting in the work. I would definitely take her for classes again and she was very sweet, put in the work = good grade.
Professor C was very professional! Professor C sent messages out frequently to make sure my class felt supported! She is overall a great professor and I had a great experience the time I spent in her class. She gave us extra credit opportunities and they were very fun but also a great way for us to engage and learn.
Professor C. is fantastic! Her enthusiasm created a positive and engaging classroom environment. I wasn't sure what to expect from this class, but she made the material incredibly interesting and the assignments were genuinely fun to work on. I highly recommend taking any class you can with her!
A good class to take if needed for your course requirements, slideshows are provided for the readings in textbooks, simple discussion posts, and easy quizzes that follow the information on the slideshows. The teacher is also easy to get in contact with, liked this class a lot. Also, there are two ending projects, but they are relatively easy.
