Comment:

Gosh!!! She is obsessed with charter schools! you better want to learn everything and anything about charter schools if you take her for this class. There is much more work than tutoring involved for this class. Be prepared for a time consuming and extremely boring class with zepeda!

Comment:

All she ever did was **** about being a single Mexican mother, and trying to make the class feel bad for her. She is intimidating and unfriendly.

Her lectures are hard to follow but she makes up for it with an easy midterm and final. For the final she let our class have two pages of notes.

She is my fav TEP teacher. She is fun and teaches differently than most professors at UCSD in a good way. I loved her class and would recomend her to anyone. She cares a lot about her students.

Comment:

Her hair was about as big as her ego... DOC 1 was an easy class and I had really cool people in section, but the mandatory attendence really sucked. Zepeda put me to sleep every single day.

Comment:

okay, so she's not the greatest lecturer, but her personal stories are very entertaining. Her midterm and final was the easiest out of the 3 professors. Luckily I had an awesome TA, so I really enjoyed the class. Take her, but DO THE READING and you'll do fine.

Comment:

She definitely has a passion for what she teaches and encourages student's opinions during lecture. she's very nice but her lectures can be confusing. i tended to drift off quite often but she's not as bad as most of the comments depict her to be!

HER LECTURES ARE HARD TO FOLLOW BECAUSE SHE LIKES TO JUMP FROM ONE TOPIC TO ANOTHER. SHE MAKES YOU FIGURE THINGS OUT FOR YOUSELVES. HER VOICE IS ANNOYING TOO...DONT TAKE HER...

Boring lectures. Luckily I had a good TA so it wasn't too bad. Unfortunately lectures are mandatory (they take attendence!) so try and take one of the other DOC teachers if at all possible.

Comment:

Bring Tylenol to class, not only will relieve you of pain when she jumps randomly from topic to topic, but it'll also provide you with a method of escapism from her annoyingly loud and obnoxious voice. Notetaking is difficult, lectures hard to follow.

Comment:

I don't know enough synonmyns for "horrible" to make this comment section effective enough. She just made the class so treacherously boring and pointless (and the class is boring and pointless to begin with - yet she made it even worse).

Comment:

Tutoring at the Preuss school rocks, and Prof Zepeda is really cool. Besides the fact she is simply intelligent, she is genuinely insightful. I highly recommend her classes.

Comment:

She doesn't clearly explain material - rather, she asks the students to figure it out themselves. Note taking is a little difficult due to the fact that she jumps around a lot and the notes that are put up are up there for very short amounts of time.

Lectures do not help; do not really explain readings. She jumps around the readings during lecture, which makes it more confusing.
