I should have listen to the warning signs. This is my first time using RMP, and that is because she's the worst of the worst. She make her test so you fail. I work my butt of on every assignment, but it still doesn't meet her expectations. She takes off mad points for grammer. I am running before she murders my GPA.

Comment:

This is a teacher from hell. She doesn't believe in extra credit. You can spend your whole night working on her assignments and she still gives you a failing grade. In her class you have to download stupid grammarly that sucks which she believes that's the best website ever created. STAY AWAY FROM THIS LADY YOUR GPA WILL BE IN DANGER IF YOU TAKE

Comment:

Dr. Mendoza is a genius as she can recall events from her teaching experience in the 70s! Buy the book and study on your own as her stories might not correlate with all the content. She has great advice, but she can say things that are edgy. Follow every centimeter of the syllabus to hopefully satisfy her grading style. Use grammarly or edit it!!!

Comment:

I'm going to be extremely honest here. 1) Get prepared to stay the entire class time 2) Get prepared to hear long and never ending stories about her life and cat 3) She definitely have favorites. Sit in the front of the class and stay in-tuned 4) The rubric and they way she like her papers aren't in sync 5) Go to her office if needed

Whatever you do, do not choose her! She is a tough grader but she will tell you what you did wrong. I did not like how she responded to my emails about assignments or grades. She is very rude! She is very particular about punctuation and will take off points for it.

She will spend most of the class time talking about herself & how incompetent everyone else is at being an educator. You MUST turn in every work. FOLLOW EVERY DETAIL IN HER INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING ASSIGNMENTS. ASK QUESTIONS! She will answer. VERY picky about grammar. Test is okay. Syllabus Quiz. Some things she says in lectures show up on test.

Comment:

Dude, when are they firing this woman? Attended her class an entire semester, did not learn a thing. I feel rude saying this but... if you have a choice, don't take this class. oh yeah and she wastes so much time talking about herself. As for the class itself, keep reading the comments, you'll get an idea...

Comment:

Don't take her class!! She is really mean and doesn't care about her students. She gave me a 0 on a homework because it was not how she wanted. I asked twice to make up two assignments and her only response was to read the first week announcement, meaning, there were no make ups. Even if you try your best, she won't help you!!

Comment:

DO. NOT. TAKE. HER. CLASS. She is not helpful. She is only interested in grammar. She is rude. She does not have any concern for her students. The only teacher I have ever had who expects online classes to turn in work by 5pm on Fridays. She would rather let you fail than help You. Basically a nightmare professor.

Comment:

This professor is horrible! Her instructions are very unclear and if you want to clarify anything she'll get mad so pretty much you are on your own. She will grade your assignments based on grammar more than the content itself. Not helpful! Do your self a favor and do not take her.

Comment:

This lady is by far the WORST professor I have ever had. DO NOT take her you will regret it, everything needs to be up to her criteria if it isn't its no good. My field experience teacher gave 100s in every micro-teach I did and this professor still gave me Ds and Fs. WORST PROFESSOR EVER !

Comment:

Professor Mendoza can seem a little rude in person, but she is just a sarcastic person. She expects you to come to class every day and will take off points if you are late. Her syllabus is very clear on what she expects on every assignment. One of her major pet peeves is grammar, so take each of your assignments to the writing center to get checked

Comment:

Don't take her class! Very difficult grader on all her assignments. My field experience teacher gave me a 100 on all the micro teaching labs but she still gave me a F, D, and C on them. If you ask her questions, prepare for her to correct you on everything you say. Avoid her at all cost, she is rude.

Comment:

Professor Mendoza is a nice lady... all she expects is for you to do what you came to class to do, work! She is sarcastic and grammar is a must for her. You better take your papers to the Writing Center or someone that knows how to write correctly before handing it to her because she WILL deduct points for it. "EVERYTHING IS ON THE SYLLABUS."
