Ms Romo is the best i encourage every one to take a class with her. She is real dedicated to helping the students as well as the community i loved her class it was the best.
Amazing time! I'm definately enjoying the class. It has been such an incredible opportunity to know her. Overall, fun and interesting class!
Oh my God, this is the best teacher ever. She is so great and so sweet. She cares so much about everyone in her class. She makes everything clear. Plus all her class was based only on attendance, one research paper,a respond paper not an essay format, and a questionaire on your representatives in your community. I got an A in her class. Take her!!!
First of all, shes hot. I mean shes really hot! Shes a studmuffin. The only problem is that she married Tony Romo who messed up the Cowboys' season. She didn't attend the next day when that happened.
Great teacher, very friendly and caring about her students. Did do lots of reading but all worth it.Thank you Mrs.Romo
This is the 2nd time i take her & she's super nice and laid back. Not strict at all! 1 midterm, a research paper and the take home final was a SHORT essay!! Take her you WONT regret it.
She is very nice and he class is so easy take her!
She pretends to be such a nice and easy teacher, makes u believe tat everything is fine. Then at last "BOOH", she gives you a crapy grade.DO NOT RECOMMEND!can not learn a thing from her and the class is very confusing, besides you can not get the grade you expected.....!!!!!SERIOUSLY!!!
easy!!!!!! do not have to attend class really.. i dont recall any tests... presentations and writings really easy... this is a class to get a for sure A
good teacher....easy teacher....
ms romo is cool she extremelly nice she smiles alot her assignments arent hard i learn some descent history from her i recomend her PS if u were in my situation shes late all the time
She's very nice as a person but maybe not so much as a professor. But her class is really easy so take her! She's lenient, flexible, and just really good person overall. Ignore people who say she "gives them" a crappy grade because she didnt give them their grade. They earned that grade.
MRS. ROME IS VERY NICE AND FAIR IF YOU ATTEND CLASS IT WILL HELP TOWARD YOUR GRADE, OTHER WISE CLASS IS EASY, TEST R EASY,HOMEWORK IS EASY,FINAL IS EASY. I DO NOT RECOMMEND IF YOUR A CHICANO STUDIES MAJOR, SHE ALWAYS LATE OR LATE ON GRADING YOUR HOMEWORK.SHE MORE OF A HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER.WILL NOT PREPARE YOU FOR THE NEXT LEVEL
I had 95% going into the final, ended up with a B. I learned absolutely nothing from the class. She tries to act nice but she will give you a bad grade in the end. Do me a favor and save your GPA. Heed my warning.
Took Her For The Second Time Didn't Like The Class She Could't Control The People But Overall She's A Good Teacher A Lot Of Peeople Says She Sucks But All u Gotta Do Is Pay Attention To Her Is It That Hard To Pay Attention N One Thing I Didn't Like Was Her Grading But Overall She's Really Nice And Understandable Take Her If U Want An Easy Grade
mrs. romo is very nice attend class do work and you will get a good grade very nice lady.
One of my favorite professor at ELAC. She is so nice. She tries her best to make the class fun. Her assignments and tests are ur personal opinion.
Professor Romo isn't a normal professor in the sense that she'll just lecture and test you. She cares about her students and wants them to do well. She's very friendly and approachable, unlike a lot of professors, so as long as you ask questions you won't have trouble understanding things. Very awesome professor! Take her if you get a chance!
very nice professor easy and fun class!
Super nice professor. Class is all lecture and discussion, bought the text book but didn't need it, only used chapter 1. Super easy class if you attend and do the work. Easy A
Professor Romo was very helpful, I enjoyed her class. It gets boring from time to time, but if you do your projects and study for exams you will pass the class with A.
Def recommend
Excellent professor. She cares about her students.Very informative. Take her!
She is a great teacher!! She makes the subject very interesting and givs loads of information. Took during winter, lectures during class and readings were important, had to do a 5-6 page essay but I got an A, because she is wonderful! Learned a lot and would recommend to anyone!
I actually took 2 of her classes in the same semester, Chicano History 09 & 19, she was wonderful. Really new her stuff. She made the class very interesting, she is very caring, and wants her students too pass. I highly recommend her...
people take advantage of her cause she really nice. more than half of the class is gone trhought the semester kinda sad. However I stayed beacuse she knows her stuff and grades easy and gives extra credit as well. Overall she is very helpful and requires alot of note taking and attendance.
Really laidback. She's not harsh with attendance. Two in class tests, one take home test. One essay. She's really cool, helps you try and pass the class if your behind.
She is really nice and her hw and stuff are easy, im going to retake the class because I had personal problems that held me back from passing but for sure I'm going to pass the class next time, I highly recommend her she cares about her students
Great teacher.Cares about her students.Mid-term, journal assignment, take home final. Really knows her stuff.
She was an understanding teacher. I enjoyed her class.
She was so sweet & lenient! We had like 4 assignments and both of our finals were take home essays. Class discussions were super interesting. Taker her!!
Professor Romo is the nicest teachers.She isnt very hard. I took her for chicano 7.she gives you a study guide for the midterm but when she goes over it in class the answers are in the notes so its pretty easy. She doesnt really tell you to do the reading but you must do it since there is questions about it on the test. Higly recommended!!!
Really nice teacher; I learned so much in her class!
sweet lady. very nice teacher. you will learn a lot
Prof. Romo is without a doubt the best! I took this class in the past and dropped because the professor wasn't clear with her lectures. Romo makes lecture very interesting. Im learning so much right now. Her tests are an easy A, of course if you read the book and study. Take her, you won't regret it! Im going to miss her class <3
Professor Romo is seriously the greatest ever!!! She is hilarious and makes her lectures interesting! I loved her so much that I always visited her office hours! Without a doubt one of the greatest professors at ELAC. There is a lot to learn if you pay attention and the projects are not difficult, just observations. Hands down one of the greatest!
Professor Romo's class is easy. You will have to read articles and journals that she uploads on Moodle. You will have 4 online quizzes and a final. No midterm. You will also need to write a cultural observation paper (very easy) and will have to present a group project on a music genre (very easy) both due at the end of the semester.
Sometimes the lectures can be boring but come on its history. She's very sweet and clearly loves to teach. Easy A just show up and do the work.
Professor Romo is the best! I highly recommend her for anybody, she's very helpful and there for the students and she understands if you have things going on in your life, just talk to her and her classes are super easy, I've had her for Chicano 7 and 44 and her class was my favorite, highly recommended if you want an easy yet fun class.
Shes a very sweet teacher. Easy A i would take her again!
One of the sweetest professors. Will help you with any questions you have. Show up to class take notes and you'll be good.
She's a nice person and her class is easy but I found it very boring.
SHES A GOOD TEACHER EASY A TESTS ARE NOT HARD
MS. Romo is a sweet lady very awesome she's very interesting if you participate in her class she will be your best friends share stories you might know from your culture when it comes to that topic she usually brings a power point about Mexican icons so share any stories and you will have fun in the class even though people find it boring.
Professor Romo is the sweetest person ever! I highly recommend to take Ch/S 44 with her. She does not assign a lot of essays. She has the class read articles from moodle with a timed quiz of 10 questions but be sure to not miss them as it can affect you grade.
A very caring professor and funny. One of the best professor I would Highly recommend to take her class. very easy class she goes over power points, I didn't really use her book but it be safe to get one.
Easy A. Boring lectures. Everyone was just on their phone the majority of the lectures. You don't learn anything from this class & i've taken other chicano st. classes, but hey it's a easy A that meets your humanities. Oh & group projects ugh..
Polite , helpful , and clear . Would take again and recommend to others for Chicano Studies 7 . Make sure to read the material ,and take notes on the PowerPoint she make us print out. (optional) Keep in contanct with her if your absent and catch up on work.
Professor Romo is such a sweet and caring lady! She makes everything clear and understands her students. She gives extensions for work assignments but only if the reason is valid. I highly recommend her class!
Prof. Romo is a very sweet lady. She is not difficult but you do have to pay attention in class because her assessments are based on some of the things she talks about in class. Don't leave the assessments until the last minute because she will close them and not reopen them.
Romo is a professor I recommend to take for any Chicano class she teaches. She usually teaches all Chicano classes. She is a very nice and caring teacher. There is really nothing to stress and worry about in her classes at all. Everyone usually does fine just follow the syllabus and your good there is really not a lot from it. She is a recommended.
Romo is a professor I recommend to take for any Chicano class she is very nice and sweet to her students and is usually always in a good mood. There is no stress in her class at all and nothing to worry about. Everyone usually does fine and it's gonna be ok. If u ever do need any help she will be glad to help take her trust me.
Great professor
Awful, just awful. During the first 3-4 weeks she wasted the first hour of class taking roll and bs-ing. I mean 3 weeks had gone by and I hadn't learned a darn thing about Chicano studies. She teaches like she's milking the clock. The only thing you have to worry about is a 6-page journal. Exams are based off power points and a book you have to buy
Prof. Romo is such a sweet woman! She really cares about her students and will go out of her way to help anybody with a problem whether it be school related or life in general. The only big assignment that can heavily impact your grade is the journal so make sure to complete it. Overall, you should be able to pass this class with a good grade.
Ms. Romo is quite a gem. Her class is very easy to pass with an A. All that matters is a simple 6-page essay about what you've basically learned from the beginning of the term to where you currently are. Quizzes are given through Canvas and 1 of them is a group essay. The final is very easy, its based on the last 3 pp that she gives.
It was such a pleasure to have Mary for the summer. She is inspirational, intellectual and funny! The class consisted of eye opening lectures, films/documentaries, 2 group assignments ugh lol and one paper based on a personal interview. The book was affordable and an interesting read. I highly recommend taking her she is truly an inspiration.
this is an easy A class, participate and do the few assignments and you'll pass.
very sweet caring professor but can be very boring at times. she rambles for the first 30-45 min of class before starting with a lecture. 1 cultural observation, and one group presentation which you get time to work on in class, 4 quizes that as long as u read the material you should pass with an easy a
Quizzes are based on what you read. She is a very chill professor and very friendly. she makes the class enjoyable. I really recommend to take her.
She is a good teacher, I took her for both chicano 44 and 7 she is easy just do the reading because that is what your assessments are on.
Professor Romo is nice and caring. She works well with dsps students. I highly recommend taking her class, you won't regret it.
Prof Romo is passionate about Chicano history and makes the class interesting. She uses the syllabus and goes over everything that is on it. She brings articles, calendars, and magazines that are related to the chapters. If you are struggling, she will stay after class to help.
Interesting class facilitated by a knowledgeable professor. She makes it her sole duty to teach her students the history of Mexican art, all while keeping a positive attitude. Students from previous semesters come visit her to discuss with her and the class about their endeavors. It is apparent she is a well respected professor here at ELAC.
I really enjoyed Professor Romo's class it was a great way to study Mexican culture and made me open up to Mexican foods and the history behind it. She can work on spending more time on encouraging her students to get off the phones and do engaging activities that make everyone interested in the course. Overall, an easy class just do the work.
The easiest professor I have had in college. Almost no homework. Attendance was not necessary to pass. The class did nothing for the first two months. You really only had 5 assignments the entire semester(4 Exams & a Reflective Journal). She is extremely kind and very knowledgeable. Want an EASY A? Take Professor Romo
Professor Romo , where to begin !! Shes a lovely lady , shes so kind & shes just lovely ! Its been one of the most pleasant classes Ive ever taken. Shes just lovely ! Shes so passionate about Chicano studies ...
I never say this about my professors but this class was a disappointment, I learned nothing new. It was an easy A but really no material? no book? no assignments? She is knowledgeable but was not ready for this class. I wouldn't take it again because I like to invest in my time and learn. She wanted students to run the class.
I took her for 51 and 52 the same semester so I dont really remember what was taught in which class but pre-coronoavirus she lagged it to start class and would teach the last 10 minutes but of course there would be learning involved. She just does powerpoints and then does quizzes after every topic, the quizzes are just true or false.
Professor Romo is the sweetest professor I've had the pleasure of meeting. Before we went into remote classes, I enjoyed her lectures in class. Must watch videos for discussions assignments. Her quizzes are T or F questions. Read your chapters on the book, take notes on the chapter topic guidelines, study and you will pass. Pretty easy class.
Prof. Romo is very knowledgeable. She's sweet and cracks jokes but most students won't laugh for some reason. You have to write alot of papers but she give you chances to redo them for a better grade. She is very inspirational and has made me develop love for my culture
Easy A. Read and do the quizzes and you'll pass. New quiz after every new topic (every 2-3 weeks), 1 paper, and 3 big discussion posts (huge part of grade). Only have to read every other week. Organized, flexible, nice, understanding, simply love her.
If you need to check off one of your course requirements during summer/winter, look no further. This is a no brainer, go with Professor Romo. Readings can be done in one or two days. Quizzes were 20 questions T/F, three discussion assignments , and some videos. One of the most interesting and easiest classes I have taken. You won't be disappointed.
Great professor! As long as you complete all your homework and read, you'll pass. The quizzes are based on the textbook she provides for you online.
Professor is thorough, engaged and caring. Answers all questions in a thoughtful, individualized way. Material was very interesting. I'd read great things about this instructor and they were true. Takes time to make sure you understand the material. We covered the entire book; quizzes are based on the book. She's wonderful, take her class.
The subject matter of this class was fascinating, but the structure was awful. Confusing delivery of instructions within module titles and long gaps with weeks of reading between discussions or quizzes. Supplemental readings were pretty good but some of the supplemental videos were poor quality or borderline irrelevant. Disappointed.
I'm conflicted in rating this course. Prof Romo seems to be caring and knowledgable; her weekly messages and assignment feedback were supportive and insightful. However, I found the course structure super frustrating. There wasn't enough guidance and instruction. So few assignments that you can't course correct if you miss something.
Professor Romo was a very nice teacher. Her class was very easy and there wasn't many assignments so if you have a lot of classes definitely take this one! Overall, she is a great teacher and I would definitely recommend her class.
Definitely take this if you have a heavy semester and need an easy A. You'll need to read the assigned book to take the tests and do the assignments but luckily there aren't many.
This professor is very kind and respectful towards students. She a good professor to have when it comes to Chicano 44.
Great professor! She is very lovely and understanding. Attendance was not mandatory and not a lot of homework was assigned.
Spring 2023. Can you believe there were only 7 assignments the whole semester? She gives you like 3 weeks to read a couple chapters and a whole week for the quiz. If you actually wanna read you need to buy the textbook. 4 quizzes, 2 discussions, and the final. Both quiz and final are T/F questions (thx AI). DEFINITELY RECOMMEND for heavy schedules.
The sweetest most caring professor! very understanding, funny and super knowledgeable. Easy class with interesting lectures. Grade based on quizzes/ discussions. I'd recommend to everyone.
Professor Romo is super easy! I usually just go over the material once a week and it is enough for me to understand the quizes. 100% recommend
One of the best professors ive had. She is so helpful and just overall amazing, if you take her online or in person just do the work and you will not have a tough time at all.
Amazing Professor to take No extra credit assignments, but the workload was easy so it wasn't needed Reco
This has been my second time that I have had Professor Romo and I love her lectures. Her assignments are pretty easy. As long as you do the discussions and do well in the quizzes it is an easy A. I would really recommend her. :)
I took her online spring class and honestly it was a good class. There's a few discussions with plenty of time to do them. She is understanding and replies to emails. Just do your work and read the assigned readings and you will pass this class.
This class is really what you make of it. Many resources are provided to learn in depth on Chicano History, however the assignments are few, and extremely easy (2 written comments, 5 T/F Quizzes.) While the provided resources are great, the required book (loan from library if needed!) veers towards colonial apologism at points, which was not cool.
Such a lovely professor, she definitely loves what she does and cares for her students. Barely gives any work except for casual reading and quizzes. But, if you are here to learn about the topic of the class you wont learn much. She does provided with videos and readings but usually in class she will have rambles rather than sticking with lecture.
