Prof Perea is very into the material herself, which in itself is an essential component to teaching. She will gladly repeat herself 10 times if you need her to, to make sure you understand. Do not miss a class, or you won't do well on her papers. Her class is fun; lectures are long but she keeps you interested. Very energetic and made us laugh!

Professor Perea is good human being, and her lectures are interesting if you are interested in sociology. I'm not interested in sociology but had to take this class because of credit. I found the topics not interesting for me, she is mainly focused on LGBTQ+ communities and almost all essays are on this topic. She never gave me feedbacks. Big con!

The lecture material was alot of reading but it was interesting. Most essays were inspired by LGBTQ+. Provided feedback upon request for assignment grades.
