This class is easy if you do all of your assignments and work hard on your papers. Make sure your ideas are clearly stated and related and you will do fine on your papers. Nice, helpful, and very willing to sit down and help. Be prepared to work though. I got a b , I didn't work as hard as I could have.

It seems like she wants to see all of her students succeed but she obviously expects that we do our parts and put in the work to improve. She provides one on one discussions after each essay, it helps me understand what is expected of a good paper. Some prompts could be explained better. Overall very thought provoking and engaging lectures.

Tough grader, will definitely grade you a lot on the little things. She has 1-on-1 feedback with you after each essay (we had 4). Sometimes directions are not clear. Overall, for the amount of work she gives you many of us feel like she did not respect how little time we had and just piled assignments.

If you can keep up with the rapid lectures and show up not even a minute late to class, you should be fine. The problem with her class has more to do with her emotions, rather than her teaching methods. For somebody who spends the entire semester illuminating critical thinking, she seems to disregard those lessons when it comes to her students.

She is not professional, occasionally uses profanity, and goes on political rants. Assignments are set up in orderly fashion, but the papers are also on politics. She was only pleasant when admin was monitoring her for her evaluation. Gets upset when you ask questions and when someone was confused. Very tense environment.

I had an amazing experience with Professor Sandoval. Very enganing teaching style, and gave really good feeback on essays. It wasn't an easy class by any means, but if you put in the work you will get a very stimulating and intellectual learning experience.

Professor Sandoval is strict and expects full commitment to her class. Much of the material is based on her personal views in Sociology, with little room for critical thinking or open discussion. She's quick to call you out if you're even a minute late and told us to cancel all plans near finals. Be prepared for a demanding and rigid environment.

She is a very sweet person and extremely realistic. She understands that students entering college from the failing public school system are at a total disadvantage knowledge wise. She can come across strict or mean, but show you care about learning and she will help you get an A. Only 4 essays for the whole she is very lenient.
