Very nice teacher. helpful, easy going, and very approachable. recommended for Polisci students or for people trying to fullfill a GE requirement.
attendance isn't mandatory but, you'll be assigned journal entries that are due the same class. Most of the assignments are based off completion and course material is presented clearly through notes and lecture. great for a GE course and an amazing professor who cares for your success.
My favorite professor I've had at SMC, she genuinely wants her students to succeed and gives great feedback on critical response papers. She's great at finding specific strengths in each student, which is really encouraging. If you do all the readings and put thought into the essays, which you should, then it can be a lot of work, but well worth it
Dr. Cueva lives what she teaches, she's genuinely committed to justice. Accessible and accommodating, she'll bend over backward. But you must match her effort. Not caring, expecting an easy A just because she's nice will earn you a fail. Opening your mind, engaging, and reading is the bare minimum. It's a lot, but the course is very fulfilling.
i took women studies 20 with this Dr Cueva. We learned of a variety of FeminismS and Civil Rights MovementS. Her teaching style is very different. it is not like the banking method. We discuss in class everything we learn. She assigns journals only Midterm and Final exam. Expects all Students to try. Her class will challenge you and open your mind
A wonderful professor who really cares about her students. Had a few journals, midterm, final, and a presentation on a movement. Pretty manageable course load, and you learn A LOT of new stuff that you won't learn in any other class. Definitely recommend.
She is an incredible, amazing, beautiful, strong, motivating professor who does her best to see her students transform through the development of a critical consciousness thats grounded in praxis and social justice. Her teaching style encourages students to create a safe space and a community where learning and discussion can take place.
Amazing professor! She's incredibly intelligent and compassionate. Somewhat of a heavy workload but very doable. You've got to TRY to fail because although she isn't easy, she's not impossible.
Professor Cueva is one the most considerate professors I've ever had. She really tries to engage in a discussion with the class and to expand our ideas on topics that take time to map out. She's understanding to all situations or problems, but she also won't take bs. You really have to work for a grade you want, but it's rewarding in the end.
Passionate, dedicated to the topic and her students, Dr. Cueva is one of the best teachers I have taken at Santa Monica. She is a very inspiring professor!
She helps improve your spirit, mind, and body--if you allow yourself the freedom to transform. With her help, I expanded my interdisciplinary knowledge, critical thinking, writing and reading, and knowledge of various women groups, and so much more--all of which helped me transform into a stronger, happier, and better person for myself and others!
She is such a brilliant teacher. Her class will challenge you in the BEST way possible. She is so kindhearted and caring, you can see it in her overall peaceful disposition. Her class will open your eyes to issues that you wouldn't even know existed. She really helps you visualize and conceptualize, instead of just memorize. Would 100% take again!
Expect to do work. Expect to learn a lot. Expect some shocking material on the state of our Earth. Expect a more open mind by the end. Expect emotions because social justice emanates from the heart and social justice is the heart of her teachings. A big part of me wishes the class didn't end. A bigger part of me will remember this class forever.
I learned so much from her as a professor and as a person. In other classes, I have felt excluded from the discussions. She made an effort to learn our names and our aspirations. I would take this class again! The work load was manageable and enlightening.
Dr. Cueva seems to be right of the bat interested in improving and enlightening her students. She seems to be for the people. During the 2014 Summer Semester she was very considerate on the work load she assigned and was extremely helpful and provided different teaching methods. I really recommend her, although material might be challenging.
Professor Cueva is a wonderful person who deeply cares about all her students. She crafts wonderful lessons that teach the importance of self love, understanding, and advocacy all while helping you develop critical thinking, reading skills, and the ability to analyze and critique and understand many many different theories. Take the class!
She showed me that the activism and its study is a passionate pursuit of making the world a better place. As a Classics major, that was all I could ask for and more!
Cannot fully express how much I appreciate Dr. Cueva. She's one of those professors that gladly teaches you so much more than "she is supposed to". Prior to starting this course I was intimidated easily, however I learned to feel really comfortable. I found my voice and learned to assume agency through her teachings. TAKE THIS CLASS!!!
Professor Cueva prepares her students for long-term educational success She expects the best from her students and also gives 100 in return. She encourages students to become critical thinkers and to use one's education in the service of creating a better world. She prepares amazing lectures, power points, and a safe space for profound discussions in class. As a student with disabilities, she also made sure that I felt welcome and pushed me just as hard as other students I am forever grateful that she really tries to connect with her students Best Professor I have ever taken at S.M.C. Also, no texting in her class she is kind-hearted BUT not a push-over, thus will call you out if you are disrespectful. The academic work load is heavy, but so worth it
Professor Cueva is an amazing human being and a passionate teacher. Her class was interesting, inspirational, and a course that everyone should take. Women like Dr. Cueva should hold more positions in academia in order to educate society about the struggles and triumphs of women around the world--especially of women of color.
She's a really great teacher and a greatinteresting person. She tries very hard to work with you and tries to make the class approachable to everyone. The class does require a lot of reading and a few assignments, however. Anyone should be fine but it certainly helps if you're already interested in the subject.
Dr. Cueva is such an amazing professor. This has been by far one of the best educational experiences I've had ever. It is such a breath of fresh air to take a course from a professor that is passionate about their teachings as Dr. Cueva is. You will have to participate in a group project but that in itself is another amazing experience.
Shes's an awesome teacher very passionate about what she teach, very straight forward as well as open minded. Shes super helpful and shes willing to help you, very easy to pass her class as long you put your part. I felt in love with this class i learn a lot in such a little time. She just an AMAZING teacher, must take her if you have the chance!!!
Dr. Cueva is the most amazing teacher I have had at SMC. Showing up matters, because it's taken as a sign of respect. Dr. Cueva encourages her students to dig deeper and question everything. She is insanely smart and open minded and above all, kind. She cares about her students and truly wants everyone to get an A. I cannot wait to take her again
Amazing professor! Was extremely helpful towards assignments, projects, midterm and final. Expectations are crystal clear, and I highly recommend taking the class.
Professor Cueva is invested in her students' education - she really makes an effort to engage and inspire her students during lectures and presentations. Definitely take one of her courses, you will learn how to be a critical thinker with an open mind.
Dr. Cueva is very knowledgable and her passion on the topic is apparent. Having said that, there were moments of absentmindedness and distraction; she'd get so into a topic that we would end up being told the same things over and over again for six weeks. Bottom line is Cueva's passion and spirit overshadowed most of the negative aspects.
I took her for winter semester & I was so sad it ended. I love her so much ! Don't be intemidated on the 1st day. I recommend her big time! She's so sweet& understanding. You grow in her class & I almost teared up on the last day of class. Every day I was excited for only her class. Class is so much fun you won't want to leave!
My favorite professor this will be my second class with her. I was extremely disappointed last semester when I couldn't get her class. She is truly amazing and works with everyone individually. She's kind and always happy, you should really take her class. (Psst: it's a take home midterm lol, but it's still hard you just get to do it in pajamas)
Definitely recommend this course. Professor Cueva is amazing, the lectures are fun and so interesting If you pay attention and do your work then you'll get an A
Dr. Cueva is one of the few humbling and inspirational professors, ever! What she teaches, is what money can't buy. I was really sad her class was over on the last day, she makes you become a wise and humble person!
She is by far one of the best professors I have had in my academic career. Her teaching methods are untraditional so it keeps the class interesting. Not only is she a professor to her students but also a mentor. She is a great example of how teaching is embedded in someone. She is passionate about the material and is well informed on it.
Really helpful and lectures a really interesting would really recommend if interested in learning
Dr. Cueva is truly invested in her students. She encourages students to use their education to create change, especially for those that are historically marginalized. She assigns lots of work (i.e. journals, research papers, exams, and group projects), but so worth it! Her courses are an educational investment, as you will gain so much!
I loved this course! Professor Cueva teaches her students the importance of "giving back" to society and our world. It was a challenging course, lots of writing, but so worth it! Wish more instructors cared about teaching! Oh, midterm is tough (in depth) take good notes, read, attend class, and work with your group members to keep up.
Best Professor ever taken at SMC! Pushes students to learn and engage in the material. Really cares about our learning process as students. Beware of Group Projects- pick a good working group of peers that you like! Also attend class!
Great Professor! Awesome lectures and includes women from different racialethnic, class, and diverse backgrounds. First course ever taken in WS that included African-American women! Expects a lot from her students, so be ready to work. Requires: Written Journals, Group Presentation, Midterm and Final. Also very approachable to her students.
Dr. Cueva is AMAZING. I learned so much in this class and i loved how much she cares for her students. Take her class.
I took Dr. Cueva WS10 class over the summer. She is an amazing professor who really does care about her students and wants to see them to do well. Her class really does open up your mind on the outlooks of life. I would say you're interested in this class you must take her.
Professor Cueva is the most inspirational professor i've ever had. She motivated me so much and taught me a lot. This class will leave you with real life skills and knowledge you can take when you leave the class. She is extremely caring about her students. Just do your reading and assignments and you'll do well!
Dr. Cueva has been the best instructor I've had at SMC so far. I was very happy to see a WOC teach women studies and not discuss solely the suffrage movement. But, an emphasis on Black Feminism and Chicana studies. I think more women of color should be hired in the ethnicwomen studies department. You will have to work for your grade but she helps!
Dr. Cueca is an amazing professor. I was in her honors class and it was one of my favorite classes. She gives very helpful feedback, tells you exactly what she expects in our work, and makes the the class very engaging. You will be challenged and have fun as well. I recommend this class for everyone.
I absolutely loved Professor Cueva! She was so caring and really invests in her students. I got an A because I really worked hard on all her assignments and papers.
I came into this class expecting it to be just readings and lectures, and while that is the case, there is a strong emphasis on your personal experiences. As a woman of color, I have a deeper understanding of why I feel the way I do and what it means.
Dr. Cueva is a truly inspirational Professor! She believes in her students and pushes us out of comfort zones in order to learn critical skills. Expect to work hard for the grade, i.e. lots of writing, reading, and a group presentation. I really enjoyed working with my peers and came out of this course so empowered as a Woman of Color.
Dr. Cueva really pushes her students to become critical thinkers and want to give back to our society. She is such a gifted educator and what you get from her is "quality" teaching. It is evident that she loves working with her students and treats us with respect. I had to work hard for the grade and it was so worth it! She is inspiring!
Dr. Cueva is the most helpful and inspiring human being out there. It really does not get any better than her. She uses what she teaches to inspire students to help others. She also creates a safe space for everyone, taking into account everyone's differences. Take her for every class she teaches anywhere and everywhere!
Absolutely amazing course! Dr. Cueva is a humble, kind, fierce, brilliant, and a passionate instructor! I learned so much in her course that can be applied to life. Lots of work and writing, but I felt so engaged throughout the process. She is a one of the best instructor's that I have taken here. I give her an A++
Dr. Cueva expects a lot from her students and in the process you will learn and grow so much! She is an amazing professor and wants her students to thrive! This course made me a better man, son, and future husband. Workload: Try not fall behind with the readings, writing journals, and attendance is important. All prepare you for the exam!
Dr. Cueva is such an amazing professor. You expect to go into that class to learn about women's issues, and you do, but the truth is that you get so much more. She is much more than a professor, she is someone who is willing to listen and give you a hand in your time of need. Her lectures are beyond amazing; they are inspiring. Take her class!
I have taken many courses at SMC, but never have I experienced such a deep connection to the material and content based on gender, race, class, & sexual orientation. Dr. Cueva makes learning exciting, challenging, and really inspired me to care about my educational goals! She is an amazing professor, educator, and human being! Loved her course.
Dr. Cueva is a very passionate, helpful and inspiring professor. You can tell from her lectures that she truly cares about the material and her students. She makes the class very clear, always gives feedback, and makes the class very engaging. She is the best professor I have had here at SMC and I wouldnt think twice of taking her class again.
Dr. Cueva was an amazing Professor! She puts her heart into teaching and expects the same from her students. As long as she can see that you care, you will be fine. Her stories were very inspring and helpful. I recommend taking this class because you will be surprised how interesting it is! And she has positiveenergy in her class. Best class at SMC
Dr. Cueva's class is something that any person should take while at SMC; male, or female. As a male coming from a largely masculine, athletic, and sometimes even misogynist background, Dr. Cueva and her material challenged me to address my past, urging me to confront it in a very real and vulnerable way - consequently, I have grown.
txt: need, vry interesting lectures? vry inspirational, informative, prob should have some prior k prof? the best prof i've had at this school so far 2014, if you have any probs/Qs go to her, she calls you in rather than out, SJ ppl: take her class!, vry understanding/forgiving w/in reason, participate in class discussions, she CARES abt her subj
Dr. Cueva is probably the one of the best caring and open professors around. She is always there to help, even though she sometimes does not have office hours. She is very forgiving on late assignments, although I never felt so rushed that I turned something in late. She is not a tough grader at all, she is so lenient on pretty much everything.
Best professor ever. She inspired me to continue to take women studies class. Her classes are so empowering and I recommend everyone to take her class.
Professor Cueva is the best! At first she'll try to scare you off with her long syllabus, but is not as hard as it seems.
Dr. Cueva is the best! She's super helpful and she loves all of her students. She resolves all conflicts effortlessly and will go out of her way to make sure you understand the material!
Professor Cueva is an amazing professor. Words couldn't explain. I enjoyed her class so much. Her lectures, her passion and her urge to want better for everyone. She is very understanding. She is a wonderful theorist, educator and person. Beautiful heart. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.
Phenomenal lecturer, very intelligent, and very obviously passionate about her field. Class formatting and grading criteria are basic and understandable. Midterm and final both require a good amount of writing and are based on text and lectures. If you're wondering about chili pepper rating, she is indeed attractive. Good class overall.
After 16 weeks, Dr. Cueva has served as a powerful inspiration to broaden my perspective. I enjoyed the comfortable environment she provided for people of all types of ethnicities, genders, and sexual orientations. I strongly recommend taking this class regardless of your initial interest in the subject.
Dr. Cueva has changed my life! This class is everything I expected and more. Topics are radical/ contemporary but very respectful of all. In order to succeed in her class you MUST get out of your comfort zone! Her class is a safe learning environment. Midterm is harder than final. Choose your group presentation topic wisely! Favorite class at SMC!
Dr. Cueva is by a brilliant and inspirational professor that truly cares about teaching and her students! She assigns lots of writing journals, readings, and work. However, you will gain so much for long-term educational goals . Thank you for inspiring me to care about our world, society, and humanitarian principles. A+ Experience
Professor Cueva is an amazing educator with great passion for teaching! She will push you and encourage you to give 100% to your studies, as she gives that to her students. Best course ever! Great group experience and safe learning environment. Critical Race Theory was my FAVORITE theory learned. Hope to use it in grad school. THANK YOU !!!!
Dr. Cueva is a great professor who teaches in a holistic way. She cares about how her students grow in her class. The class I took was a scholars class, so lots of writing but doable.
She was all over the place. When she assigned material her directions were unclear. And she spent about 3 weeks on one historical movement and was unable to finish all the material she was suppose to cover. Made us buy the books because they were "completely necessary" I opened them 3 times. Buy the books with a friend and share them Short readings
Best Professor I have ever had at SMC! Makes the space welcoming for all students. Covers lots of material. Very inspirational lectures. Motivates students to give their best! First class that I ever had that included the Black Panthers and women from different racial/ethnic backgrounds. Dr. Cueva is super brilliant! Midterm is tough.
Great Quality Professor! Lots of writing, readings, and includes marginalized groups of women, i.e. African-American, Latinas, Native American, Asian American, lesbian women, poor women, etc. Hard midterm and a group project. Cares about students education. Fair, but not a push over. Dr. Cueva makes lectures relevant to contemporary issues.
Pace yourself with your work, turn it in on time because each assignment takes hours to complete. Midterm is hard as well so make sure to begin it right away. She is a very sweet professor and I enjoyed her class this winter very much. I felt like she prepared me for the expectations for this major and I am very grateful for that. Take her class :)
Dr. Cueva is part of a new & more progressive breed of teachers. She genuinely cares for her students and wants them to do well. She really takes into consideration the trials that students face during school such as working, having a child, etc. She is incredibly smart and helpful and though she's not the easiest teacher, you will learn a TON.
I took Professor Cueva in the Winter Semester, and this class was honestly one of the best classes I took at SMC. I loved how she emphasized building a community among your peers. She does give extensive journals, but the information is pretty repetitive so you're good on that. Just attend class and do the work and you'll be able to get an A.
Loved Dr. Cueva's women's studies 20 class. I took her class during winter. She is very easy to work with. There were quite a lot of journals (definitions+short essays) we had to write but they all helped to prepare us for the midterm and final. It was an amazing experience and I would love to take one of her classes again!
If I can grade Dr. Cueva on a percentage scale, I would give her a solid 100. Dr. Cueva has gone accommodated the class like no other professor has on this campus. She cares about our well being as well as getting the most out of her class! She is the definition of a true humanitarian and inspires me to bring change to the world.
This class helped me become a better critical thinker.
Professor Cueva is amazing. If I wasn't transferring then I would 100% be taking another class with her. She's inspirational, passionate, understanding, and very knowledgable. One of the best teachers I've had at Santa Monica College, so much so that I hope to stay in contact with her. You won't regret taking her!
She's a great professor and really cares about her students. She always tries her best to make sure everyone is okay and not stressed. The work load is very manageable. Though her syllabus and directions are not very clear. She isn't as organized as I would have liked but I'm the OCD type.
This class is so important for everyone to take. Dr. Cueva really cares for each and every one of her students. She gives papers but they really help when it comes to the final! You will be a critical thinker by the time you leave the class if you aren't one already. I would take her class again. It's a great environment, and you won't want to miss!
Professor Cueva is an amazing professor who teaches an amazing course! She is very passionate about her work and brilliantly humble in the way she teaches! I've learned a lot in her course in regards to being a better person, man, and overall human being. The course grew on to me and taught me more than I thought!
One of the most understanding professors at SMC. She is smart, humble and kind. Semester starts off heavy but eases down throughout the semester. Complete composition journals because they are graded even though we neglect them the whole semester. U will have a week to complete take home journals. Such an inspiring & enlightning class. Recommend!
Great class. Will change your perspective about many topics. Encourages you to question what you've been taught. Professor Cueva is passionate about what she teaches and it shows through her lectures.
Professor Cueva is one of my absolute favorite professors that I've had in the entire time that I've been at SMC. She is very passionate, understanding, caring, and inspirational. She's actually the reason that I was thinking about switching my major. She truly cares about her students. Definitely take this class, you'll regret it if you don't!
This was my first women's studies class, Professor Cueva is great professor, very inspiring and cares a lot about her students. This class consists of a lot of writing. My advice onto passing this class is do all of the journals get a good grade on them, as they play a huge part of the midterm and final and you will guarantee yourself an A.
Dr. Cueva is an intellectual power house. She inspires students to care about diversity & learning. Best Honor Professor I have ever taken at SMC! Really preps students for long-term educational goals beyond SMC. Lots of writing- journals, but all guide you for the Midterm. Class was also "quality teaching" she is a progressive professor.
Professor Cueva is by far the most loving and understanding professor on campus. While she can be disorganized at times and her syllabus is fairly confusing, she is open to answering all student's questions and always listens to students comments and concern openly. I really enjoyed taking a class with her, as it taught me a lot!
Dr. Cueva take care all the students. She is a nice Professor!
Best professor at SMC! Not only does she teach amazing movements, she teaches wisdom as well! Most humble women ever!!!!
She deeply cares about what she is teaching and her goal is for students to learn the information and take with them once they leave and apply it to their everyday lives. I have learned so much about myself while taking both her WomSt 10 and 20 classes. It is a shame she doesn't teach other subjects. If you have her as a prof. consider it a treat
This course was truly life changing. Professor Cueva has such an amazing way of teaching and is very understanding of her students. The class does require hard work and focus but time flies through it all. I recommend truly reading the reading assignments and when writing the journals make sure to give your honest opinion and stay open minded.
I have to say that I had to put a lot of effort on my papers because this class is very paper driven. However, she is understanding and her lectures are very inspiration. Its women studies, so either way you'll be leaving with a new perspective and you'll learn a lot of great things, so the subject itself is very interesting.
I appreciate Dr. Cueva's passion in teaching! She encourages students to develop critical thinking skills and to challenge themselves. Lots of work: Weekly Typed Journals, Midterm & Student Presentations. She is a QUALITY instructor and what you gain in her class can be applied to transfer & life. She gets an A+! Attendance is important.
Dr. Cueva is the best professor on campus. This professor has changed my life in a sense of inspiring me to be an asset to my community. Upon taking all three of her classes and becoming a Gender Studies major, she inspired me to start a humanitarian aid club here on campus that caters to the homeless students and the community! She is a blessing!!
Amazing and inspiring teacher. If you have the opportunity to take one of her classes please do. She is a teacher that teaches in a progressive way with countless amounts of knowledge to share with her students.
Her passion is brought out in the way she teaches. She inspired me to think about law school!
SHE IS THE BEST PROFESSOR. SHE REALLY CARES FOR HER STUDENTS. SHE GIVES JOURNALS EVERY WEEK THEY MIGHT BE "LONG" BUT THEY ARE VERY EASY TO DO. I ADORE HER, I RECOMMEND YOU GUYS TO TAKE ONE OF HER CLASSES!
Dr. Cueva was a fantastic professor. This was one of the most amazing classes I have ever taken and I would definitely take one of her classes again.
Dr. Cueva is a caring and inspirational professor who goes out of her way to make sure her students are doing well in the class. She is one of the most caring professors I've had and she really connects to the material she teaches. I would definitely take her class again. As long as you complete the weekly journals, you can pass with an A!
If you want an "easy" class that you don't have to do much work, this is NOT the class. There are quite a few writing/reading assignments, and she has high expectations of her students. I am so grateful for Dr. Cueva and her passion for this subject. I have gained important knowledge that has changed my life, and now I can share it with others.
A great professor to take for women studies 10! She gives great feed back, take home journals that aren't hard to complete, but get you thinking. As well as in class journals that relate to class material, and the books she ask you to get are accessible, I bought all of mine on amazon. She is incredible! I took a lot of great lessons from her (:
I really enjoyed her class. She is inspirational and gives you so much empowerment. She's always there for her students. She is a little unorganized but that doesn't stop me from enjoying her class. You have to read and there is a lot of homework but it is something you can get done. You have to earn that A. I would honestly take her class again.
Professor Cueva was honestly one of the best professors/teachers I have ever had. She genuinely cares about her students and their futures. You do have to work for an A in her class but it is so rewarding. She never lets your hard work go unnoticed, making it easy for you to want to succeed and put in the work. I would definitely recommend.
A+ Great Quality Professor! Makes you work very hard and engage in critical feminist thinking. Lots of writing and a long midterm ,but in the end you learn so much about Gender Studies. Appreciate her inspirational ways of reaching students and making the material relevant.
Professor Cueva is a very inspiring and amazing teacher. I worked very hard in her course. Lots of reading and writing, i.e. Take Home Journals and Midterm Exam. I appreciated that she included Asian American women in her lectures, as well as additional Women of Color. Thank you! Midterm is tough. Ask questions and pick your group wisely.
The course really challenged me to think on a more critical level not only about women, but also about society, humanity, etc. Thank you Dr. Cueva for being so inspiring, especially in creating a space to learn that includes different women's perspectives and voices! Beware - no texting, she will call u out!
Great Instructor! Course was demanding includes: Written Journals, Essay format Midterm, Group Presentations, and a Final. Commence assignments early and keep up to do well. Only critique - Dr. Cueva has great lectures & power points, but does not post them on line. If you miss class its hard to catch up.
doctor Cueva is absolutely divine as a person and a s professor, she wants her students to be devoted to hermaterials , get ready to write her journals are very specific so pay attention to her lectures and do the readings , don't skip class .She wants you to gain knowledge not just pass the class, i'd definitely take her again.
Hands down my fav professor. Thanks to this class, I'm so much more aware of the intersections b/w sexism, racism, classism, homophobia, & other systems of oppression. Work is very manageable, and this is coming form a hardcore procrastinator. She creates a class that has an atmosphere of openness and acceptance; there was no judgement here. Take!
Professor Cueva was honestly one of the best professors I have ever had. She is extremely caring and overall amazing.
I LOVE HER & I WOULD TAKE HER AGAIN. HANDS DOWN BEST PROFESSOR EVER!. I truly love how she care about her students. She is very inspiring and wonderful. Also, she lets you bring your small four-legged to class! AMAZING 3
Dr Cueva is one of the most strong woman that I never meet before. She is great, so smart and strong. If you want to empower yourself by learning your context take this class. You won't be dissapointed.
She's the best teacher to have when you really want to learn about social justice, leadership, and feminism. She genuinely cares about her students and knows just how hard it is to be one. If you ever have a problem with an assignment, it is really in your best interest to talk to her she gives feedback and pushes you for your best in class and out
Professor Cueva is a great professor. I took her for women studies and she had great lectures. Your grade consists of your essays and final group project(a presentation). If you want a good grade you have to be very analytical in her class. Overall I highly recommend her!
There are so many journals in class and take home so do them on time. Inspirational lectures and she cares about her students. all books were needed. she extends deadlines too since she cares about quality of work. shes so niceee i loved her
Having a professor like Dr. Cueva is a professor that you wish to have in your entire educational career! Does she give you assignments that push you to critically analyze and work hard for? Yes! But the tools that she gives you to critically analyze and conduct class presentations are assets that you need to transpire to UC and Cal States.
best professor i've ever had. she's so passionate and one of the strongest women i know. she helped me gain and be confident in my own voice
The conversations in class are powerful and so enriching. You wont regret it at all, simply stay focused and do what you have to do. You want a good women studies class? Shes your best pick!
Professor Cueva is one of the most caring professors I've ever had. You have to do a lot of reading and writing, but her class was one of my favorites at CSUN. On the contrary, this class is a bit time-consuming and far from an easy A so if you have a busy schedule for your upcoming up semester I wouldn't recommend this class.
