I never rate professors but this professor is the worst teacher ive ever had. Dont take her class for any reason. HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!
worst professor ever. she's rude and doesn't even teach right. the workbook is used a lot and you have to memorize a lot for the tests. do not take her
This class isn't impossible to get an A in, but boy, does this lady make it tough. She makes a seemingly simple, interesting class into this really hard course. You will *always* need your textbook, as we read from it every class, and she asks you questions at random to give/take away points. She knows her stuff, but she's pretty harsh and rude.
I actually like her!! She is funny and her class is not so serious, you can get an easy A if you do the questions and listen in class which are very easy to do... definitely recommend taking her.
If you go to class everyday and pay attention you will pass this class with a B or higher. She accepts late work and reviews before each test.
I loved this professor she lets you hand in late work, does a quick review right before tests easy assignments. Take her! Easy A
All the bad reviews are all wrong. This class is a cake walk. The only annoying thing is that we read the chapters out loud in class and they're long as hell...but that's it!!! She makes you highlight what's on the test and she reviews the test before you take it. She has a pretty good sense of humor too. I enjoyed her.
Great professor, she explains everything and reviews the questions of the test right before. The only thing that is mandatory is the book, other than that easy A plus she's hot and has a sense of humor.
Loved this class!! Great professor I learned a lot and would take her again. Some projects were more difficult than the rest but overall a great class and a great grader.. Definitely take her.
Goes over a new chapter every class so it is not wise to skip a class; however, she does intensive reviews the day before every class that are VERY helpful. Love this professor and would absolutely take another class with her again!
The teacher is absolutely ridiculous, if you are a minute late, you are not allowed to enter the class. She does not teach, she only has you print out 80+ pages of from the book itself (which was not required IN THE FIRST PLACE) for you to write bits of information on them the whole class period. Save yourself some time and do not take!
Kind. Passionate. True Artist.
Shes a tough grader on classwork, just an FYI don't ever answer a classwork question in 1 sentence make it a paragraph long! You don't really ever do much in class shes always going over the information you need for the next test but you can print them all out or download them on your computer. Oh and you can use all your notes on the final!
Don't listen to the bad reviews, this class was a breeze and fun! I would definitely recommend her and take her again( if I can). She makes you work for the grade but is an easy grader once the work is done. Not smart to miss any deadlines though because she deducts from the points for each missed deadline.
OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGG I LOVED this professor, the projects were challenging, but I like a challenge, I started out not knowing much but she explained everything and was sooooooooo helpful, it was such a fun class! Tests were easy JUST TAKE HER!
Took this blended. Not an amazing class, but easy to do well in. The subject matter was interesting, but the lectures felt too long compared to how easy the quizzes and tests were. The professor allowed us to use the powerpoints on the tests and quizzes and the questions came directly from them. She clearly laid out grading scales and directions.
Can be very confusing when it comes to the online tests and quizzes. Goes over the same slideshows over and over and over. Not really helpful, but the class was easy. Just make sure to not have your phone out or fall asleep, she'll kick you out. If you show up 5 minutes late, she won't let you in.
At first, expectations and rules in class were excessively demanding but once you prove your work ethic she changes. I'm thankful for how far she pushed me, I now have so many great works to add to my portfolio thanks to her assignments and help. Two things she needs to SERIOUSLY ease up on are: touching other people's work & TOO much homework.
I took this class blended, it was an easy A. Her lectures aren't too bad, they give you all the information for the quizzes. If you're late, don't even bother showing up. I would recommend her.
Get this class she's the best! I learned a lot and the work I did in her class paid off I get lots of compliments for my work, projects seemed time consuming at first but when you're done it looks awesome... so worth it
She does assign a lot of homework at first, but she takes the time to show us what we need to do, and is willing to work with everyone. She really pushes students to do more than they never thought they could. She is also really funy and sweet. I recommend you take her class. She even wants everyone to get an A in her class.
Shady is strict and wants things done her way specifically. It can get annoying but she is not budging. Eventually she warms up to students a little more, and she's very nice. She is a real artist aside from teaching, and has a lot of knowledge to share. Make good use of your time with her, you can learn a lot if you go with the flow.
Learned a lot, be prepared to work though. She's strict at first but when she sees your work ethic she softens up. I recommend her.
She really knows her stuff. But she's really annoying with the way that she wants things done. But you just have to do everything she says exactly how she says. My only real problem with her is the "umm". Every lecture is "blah blah umm.. blah umm... blah blah blah umm" It seriously gets on your nerves after a while. But overall she is a good prof.
Shady was a really unique professor. Her lectures weren't boring, and we got to watch videos of artists criticizing work, too. The only thing that really threw me off about her class was that she did not like paraphrasing, and she wanted us to copy directly from websites for our in-class essays. Other than that, I recommend the class completely.
Some people happen to clash with this professor due to her responses. She seems to feel offended when people don't do her homeworks. There are a lot of things that could go wrong. Whatever you do, DO NOT TALK BACK!!! I have seen many students get into it with her and it is respectful to simply try to listen and decide what you're going to do next.
Professor Shady is great, she likes things done her way, but all around she is very nice and easy going. She makes the work super easy with her lectures short and straight to the point. You will have to write a small paper each class but guess what? you just have to copy straight from a website. (yes pleaseee!)Tests and quizzes are online. EASY A!!
I love Shady! I took her for Drawing 1 and 2D. She can be a bit strict with her guidelines but she really knows her stuff and she will support you and push you to be the best you can be. She has been my favourite art professor I've ever had. If you really want a good structured class and want to improve, take her!!!
She really pushes you to do your best. She also takes the time to help each student individually in their projects. I have never drawn the way I do before I had her as a professor. Sweet, funny, and truly an inspirational and respected professor. If I could give a score from 1 to 10, I would give a 50. That awesome.
DONT TAKE HER, very rude , has an attitude, her feedback is very disappointing, she only goes to class and sit on the computer. so annoying, u won't enjoy art with her .
In the beginning I was not look forward to taking this class but Professor Eshghi made it so much better. You definitely have to do your part and make sure to take notes when she's giving lectures. If you pay attention and do your work there's no reason you'll fail. It's an easy A if you follow instructions. Thank you for an awesome semester!!
Professer Shady is super easy!! all of the tests and FINAL are ONLINE! she will not accept talking or texting, so make sure to give her your full attention, but she is super sweet and its an Easy A!!! I recommend taking her!!
Professor Eshghi's lectures r very clear. My class was on Thurs. U will have 1 Quiz and Test due in D2L every week. At the end of every class, she'll give u a topic to write about where u can use your cell phones. On the last day of your class, u'll have a Research paper due. If u do your work, u will pass. It's very easy class.
Excellent professor.
Super easy a test and quiz due at the end of each week and one research paper (due later on) the test, quizzes and final (no midterm) are online and there are PDF's on what your testing so you can keep those open the answers are in there just need to read super easy and gives like 4 assignments for extra credit
Make sure you do all your work and never be late or absent. If you know how to work on photoshop then this class is for you and if you don't then this class not for you. Be really creative, and always have fun in what you do.
Amazing professor, creative, kind and inspirational, take her you won't regret it.
I currently have her for a 6 week class. Lectures are a bore. Dont expect her to let you out early if shes finished lecturing. Shes quite bland in my taste and sometimes if shes done lecturing early shell start lecturing about things you wont be tested on for any upcoming quizzes. Personally I dont like her but overall class is an easy A.
I had her a few semesters back both for drawing and 2D Design, loved all the projects we did, a lot of work but definitely pays off. She's cool except for texting and absences, if you do the work, you'll learn a lot and a good grade
Great class, LOVED her plus she gives 10 full extra credits that bumped my grade from B to A!!!
She's a good professor. you will learned a lot from her class as long as you come to class, take your quizes and test. class participation is mandatory. you only have one research paper to do. the test are easy.
I had her for a 6 week course and overall the class is an easy A. Just make sure to submit D2L work on time, and to pay attention to her in class. Personally, I didn't like her attitude because she would be rude with students sometimes. It seems like she forgets that we are the ones paying to be there sometimes.
This class was an easy A. Like the professor, I just suggest that you take your tests before class and take your quiz right after class while the content is still fresh.
I took 2D Design with Prof. Eshghi. She's pretty chill just don't text and NEVER miss deadlines. If you are down for a good structured class where your take easy steps to create great projects this class is for you. Take her! If you don't fool around you get almost ALL of your work done in class. I loved this class and her. Only 2 easy tests.
Explains material well, very clear expectations, easy going. Just pay attention and don't miss class. Very easy A.
Her classs ROCK! Loved her and the projects I made in 2D, thank you for a great semester!
Learned a lot, thank you for a great class!
I took the blended class, there are 2 easy quizes per week, it is not a hard course. Prof Eshgui comes prepared, but that's that. Treats everyone like little children, she takes all the fun out of the subject, definitely not an accessible person. Attendance is mandatory but participation is not important. I would NEVER take another class with her.
I absolutely recommend professor Shady, she's serious about art but a great professor overall, kind, caring and funny. Just give her class your attention and you're guaranteed a great grade
I just have one word: SUPERB! If you want to learn how to draw well take her. She is an amazing artist herself so she'll make you work hard but if you rather not learn than don't waste your time. Thank you professor!
The worst prof if ALL-TIME. Gave us no time to finish projects, criticized your work if it wasn't perfect teaches technique once and never again then gets mad if you ask to show it again. IF YOU TAKE THIS CLASS YOU WILL HAVE TO SPEND OVER $500! WORTH OF SUPPLIES!!! NOT WORTH IT!
Professor Shady's class is not easy because she pushes you to do more and better all the way to the end, bit I grew because of that and learned so much and am thankful for her to push me to go beyond the usual, I definitely recommend her �� thank you!
She's a remarkable artist herself which inspired us to draw more and learn more. She's patient and likes to guide you but so if you want to take your art to the next level, take this class! Her drawing classes are awesome and the environment she creates for her students is unique. Who doesn't want to draw while listening to music?! Loved the class!
She is rude, screams all class long, has no patience with students, has a bird that screams as much as she does in the back. She is one of the worst teacher I have ever had. Not a nice person.
The professor is rude, doesnt directly answer the questions you ask. Likes to put her students out there. Yet her class is easy.
Don't listen to the haters, I loved her class, learned a lot, sure she can be blunt sometimes and strict with attendance but I rather have a good feedback to be able to grow as an artist. With all the hard work in the end I got an A which was so worth it, the extra credit was sweet too!
she honestly had an attitude problem, gives off the vibe that shes way above her students. if you dont know an answer when she calls you out, she gets mad but then again, all she does is lecture the entire class expecting us to retain every bit of information she gives out in one lecture.
I had her for figure drawing and she rocked! She expects A LOT from you but fun class overall and I definitely improved a lot. Just do the work, and respect her time.
Good professor, class is an easy A. Yet she can be kind of rude at times and not answer questions very thoroughly. Offers extra credit and this is overall an easy course, if you need the credit take this course!!
I was nervous going into this class because of all the mixed reviews I read here. The truth is that she is one tough cookie. This class was hard for me only because it was thought online. However, if you show up everyday on time and do your work its a guaranteed A. She doesn't like slackers. I loved that class and would take her again
Great professor
This professor is one of the better ones Ive had. Haha takes her time to explain and if u have questions she does not hesitate to go more in depth. If there are mistakes with due dates she quickly corrects them and give ample time to make it up. All in all a very enjoyable experience. I never knew i would enjoy art so much! Thanks professor. A gem
She not the absolute best but she isnt the worse. She does have a horrible mic and a loud bird in the background that becomes distracting. She does not take any excuses if you missed a quiz or test and she doesn't give any hw, just a final research paper which she review before you had to turn it in which was good. barely any extra credit.
Professor Shady's class was my absolute favorite, clear lectures and grading criteria, I found a new appreciation for art even though I wasn't much interested. Tests and quizzes are all online, she explains everything on the upcoming tests and quizzes every session and you get class participation points for just showing up! Excellent professor.
Had her for art appreciation and this was the easiest class ever! Just one research paper and 10 extra credit which got my grade up to A �� we watched videos and short assignments easily passed with little to do
I had Professor Eshghi during the spring semester of 2021. She's one of the best art professors I've ever had! She cares a lot about the quality of your work and pushes you to do your best. I had a family emergency about a month into the semester and she was very understanding. As long as you show up to class and do the work, you'll do well! :)
I LOVED this class, she very caring and we had fun as a class! Projects were always easy but she was there every step of the way definitely recommend her
Shes nice and doesnt give assignments. There are quizzes and tests every week which are very easy and can be completed by reading the lessons on D2L. Theres a research paper that requires you to go to a museum which was pretty easy and the paper doesnt need to be long at all. Overall, shes a good teacher and I would definitely take her again.
For this class, you need creativity and time.
This class was a lot of work but I learned a lot and grew as an artist definitely recommend her
Another easy class. We had one research paper to do at the end of the semester, but it's very easy. The assignments are easy and quick to complete. The tests and quizzes are multiple choice and the answers are found in the files she provides for the class.
Had a great experience in her class and would definitely recommend taking her, easy A+ y'all!
This teacher is lecture heavy. Very hard grader. There is high expectation. The grading scale is clear. She does gives good feed back. You're able to reach out to her for help but it is not worth it. She does give you a chance to turn in late work.
She's tough but helps you grow through the semester, the class is intense but it's like if you want to get better there's no way around that, so why bother? no tests and most of the work can be done in class if you do the work and follow her instructions you'll definitely get an A
Def. a better Ins. especially for online. Replies promptly. If you make an error as long as you fix it you will get credit. Lots of reading but if you do the work the grades will come. Clears any confusion and announcements are displayed clearly. Great class and Ins. Would take again!
DO NOT TAKE HER. I am so uncomfortable, and no one else likes her. She needs to relax, it is literally community college. 2 unexcused absences is a deduction grade and you cannot make up missed work. Eyeballing movement in and out of the classroom, lecturing about leaving 10 min early. She is genuinely mean and I'm concerned about her.
Best professor out there, she made us work really hard and I'm not gonna lie it was tough but at the end of the semester I had the best work in my life, definitely recommend her class if you want to build your portfolio otherwise if you're a slacker don't take her
This class have somewhat of a lot of work but they are easy she gives you enough time to complete the work. You do not have to know art to pass this class. If you fail this class. it is simply because you did not try nor did you did you do the work. I would take her again without hesitation
Don't expect any communication with this professor, she will not email you back in a timely manner.
This class was a breeze! Just do the discussions, and the final paper, I contacted her and she let me go to an alternative museum which was not even on her list she lets you rewrite the paper for a better grade if any Ai was detected, and I did mine and she gave me 100 on it. She has a personal number you can contact her.
Tests were not proctored and were easy as long as you did the reading. Each module was due weekly and there was a final paper. She was easy to contact if I had questions or worries about my grades, and would respond timely with good communication. She grades fairly and nicely.
She is knowledgable and wants to see her students succeed. However, she can come off as passive aggressive and will put you on the spot in front of the class if you don't do the projects the way she wants them done. As long as you do the work correctly and on time, and attend classes, you will be fine.
rude make do your paper over if you want a low GPA and make it come down just run worst art teacher ever please RUN for your life she not nice all. these reviews is a big lie.
I loved this professor. She would constantly reopen assignments giving us extra time. She was really caring. Dont expect to not do anything, there are various assignments each week but they are doable. All the work is open from the beginning so u are able to get ahead of everything. Complete everything following the rubric and u will get an A+
If you want to be miserable, stressed and get no sleep. This is the professor for you! Shady's very disrespectful and lacks the skills it takes to be a good teacher. She yells as she critics and doesn't even teach the fundamentals of drawing. If you're looking to improve in drawing and learning the fundamentals please choose anyone else.
Do not take this class, she made the final exam attending an art show that ended in October when the final exam was due in December. Horrible teacher I hope I never take that class again.
She extended all deadlines two or three Times over the semester which helped me with my busy schedule and kids. She's caring and understanding and would respond quickly when I texted her. I take online classes as much as possible and I really appreciated her flexibility
