I took her Spring 2011 GOVT 2305, which was half class and half online. Her class has 15 quizzes, which you can give unlimited time, short questions (need to spend time to write throughly to get full marks) and 1 research paper. If you write good paper, you are good to go. She is very helpful, explains what she wants during class. I ended up A.

Professor Perez used slides, the board, examples, maps, visuals and the front row to deliver the info. Weekly court cases. Reading quiz is open for weeks to complete. Zoomed with Prof and tutor is also available. THX Professor

She encouraged me and now I am a lawyer for a Fortune 500. She is smart, passionate, and willing to share what she knows. Professor Perez changes lives. Don't hesitate to take her.

Ms. Perez is incredibly easy to talk to and work with. I'm a high school student taking multiple APs with not much time on my hands, it was easy for me to slip up. When I missed a test, she opened it up for me and give me full credit for it. Its so rare to see teachers so giving and kind. Not to mention her detailed feedback. She's awesome!

Took her 5-week summer course, was extremely easy and had such ample time to do so little of assignments it was kind of crazy. Graded by minimal amount of assignments: video quizzes, packback disscusions, and 4 exams (MC). The discussions took more time to do, but were easy. Take this if you want a chill US Gov class.

This online GOVT class was clearly laid out. It made it easy to know what to do. The videos were current and I liked interacting with my class on different topics in the posts. Responsive Prof and I would take this class again.

I took her US Government class for this summer's semester. There's an online textbook, so you have to be prepared for reading before taking exams and to stay on topic with discussions. She gives amazing feedback on discussions and I'd take her class again because it was fun posting my discussions.

Professor was very easy to work with, No lockdown browser, fully open note, heres the schedule: So you have a video assignment, then something called packback (1 response to a discussion question and 2 responses to other peoples responses in the board), and then the module exam, only 4 of these.

Lectures are very hard to follow, lot's of rambling and spent several class sessions explaining "why she teaches the way she does" rather than focusing on content. Through the first several classes we had covered almost no material at all and were pretty unprepared for assignments

Professor Perez is the best. It is lecture heavy and she is very knowledgeable. She lets students ask questions and seems to keep everyone in mind. Visuals used, stories used to deliver info. Good morning class.

Honestly probably one of the best professors she's very funny and very knowledgeable I would say take good notes. Get there on time she will say what she went over the last lecture and use that to study most likely it will be on the test.
