Great professor! She is very funny, and her lectures are always interesting. She cares a lot about her students. A lot of extra credit opportunities, and the test are very easy. She gives a study guide before the test and even goes over the study guide with you. You don't even have to use the book.

Offers a lot of extra credit, only tests on lecture notes which was easy, down to earth, understanding with personal schedules. Never had a class where other students laughed at teachers jokes!

Professor Levy is absolutely amazing and cares about her students! I took her online for a winter semester. You can easily get an A if you read, take good notes and do all of the assignments. There's no getting around reading for this class. However, the material is so current and up-to-date that you truly enjoy the reading material!

I took Prof Levy for Soc 1 and am currently retaking her for Soc 11. She's awesome! She is super organized on Canvas, her lectures are great, and on top of that, she doesn't make you buy an expensive textbook. If you show up to class and do the work there's no way you won't receive an A.

I took Soc 001 online during winter session. This was my first class to kick off my general education. She provides a PDF version of the textbook that you can print or pull up on your computer/ mobile device. You do have to read a lot and take a quiz at the end of the week. She also provides extra credit.

This is from my personal experience, but taking and passing her class boosted my self esteem. I didn't have much confidence and started to feel like I wasn't smart enough college. If you're feeling that or lost, please take her class. She is a great 'entrance' course to take for your college career if you're looking to go back. just trust me

Professor Levy was great. I took an accelerated online class with her and she was great at explaining all of the chapters. She made me feel like I was capable of passing and gave plenty of opportunities for extra credit. You definitely need to pay attention and study as the tests are timed but I would 100% take another class with her.

Professor Levy does a lot to help students pass and reaches out to you. The online class has clear instructions, tasks, and deadlines. HW is not heavy, most are quizzes on assigned reading and videos (easy). She is a really nice grader and grades writing for thoughts and effort. There is lots of extra credit just in case. Recommend her anytime.

Prof Levy cares! The assignments are more than the readings themselves, they are real-life examples, which make the material easier to understand. She is reachable, and always gives the most thorough feedback. She also offers extra credit, which are easy and interesting to complete. I felt welcomed and heard in this class! Wonderful Prof!

Shes talks too fast, too much, and has to get the first and last word in, she interrupts a lot , which is rude, and if you disagree with her, then her temper comes out. Try another professor that is respectable.

Professor Levy had assignements due 3 days out of the week which were mostly reading and then taking a quiz. She did provide a study guide which really helped on quizzes and extra credit assignements. The class was really fast paced because it was 5 weeks long but she made it very enjoyable and easy to navigate! I recommend taking her class!

Insanely sweet professor, communicate with her if you have any concerns or forgot to turn in an assignment on accident. Expect a lot of reading. The textbook is required to pass tests. She also gives extra credit, which are super easy mini quizzes. Overall, very simple and straightforward class. Would take it again!

Professor Levy, she can be very rude or sarcastic sometimes. She expects you to know everything if not she lets you know. She reads yours post and replies to it. It has to be written in a certain way I would not recommend her , but if she is the only option and you need it to graduate then take her. Good Luck

Professor Levy was a tough grader. Most of her assignments were based on opinion and if she did not like it she would give you a bad grade. Since when do we receive a bad grade for giving our opinion? 3-5 assignments due every week. Lecture, reading, and taking a quiz also her quizzes were timed she gave 30 to complete a 20 QUESTION quiz.Avoid her.

Professor Levy is a fantastic instructor and a very caring person. As she touched on some delicate topics, she made her platform a safe place to speak whether you agree or disagree. She does have your quizzes on a timer, so be prepared. I would definitely take another one of her classes. She is amazing!!

I did not wanted to post anything about Pr. Levy, but after reading others classmate's. It's important for further students to know. That she is something rude when she replies to your post, she reads all the students post and has to be aliened with her philosophy and her perspective of her life or in what she believe and her own point of view.

A sociology professor- role includes socializing with theirs students , support their point of view in not their motivating, inspiring and encouraging them, transmitting values, awakening respect for facts and sense of critical appreciation in the subject learned. After all we all having different background, a little culture humility is needed !

Easy class. As someone else had said, around 3-4 quizzes (timed, 20 questions) per week. None are that difficult if you read the corresponding chapter. That said, her feedback feels very condescending. It feels like you're forced to decode cryptic messages to figure out what is wanted. Very nitpicky for no reason. Definitely wouldn't take again.

Lots of reading, and the entire grade is pretty much based solely on quizzes, apart from a handful of activities. You cannot see what you got wrong on quizzes, therefore making the class very difficult in learning from mistakes. Some extra credit does help; however, be ready to also do tests under a verified lock browser.

took "marriage and the family" online for ge credit. lectures and timed quizzes were fairly easy but the written portions would ask really personal questions. she would dock your points if you didn't write enough because if you didn't feel comfortable answering or you ran out of time on the quiz. it was mostly multiple choice so still passable.
