I wish all the professor are like her, two easy exams, that dont need studying and just talk in class, she cares about participation and wants to her your opinion. Amazing free-spirit character, always leaving the class with a smile. Very easy A if you show up all the time.

Best professor! super caring if you don't like talking in class your grade will go down. Overall she is very good she opens your eyes on situations that are going around in our society. If you don't go to class it will be a bit hard just because you are allowed to use your lecture notes! She is super funny and nice love her very much. Easy and fun

the best prof ever. definitely take her for socioligy. throught the whole semester, you are graded by participation one presentation, and one paper. you can sub ou the paper or presentation for 15 hours of volunteer work. and for the paper, you can turn in any of your old papers from your class cause "everything is sociology".

Comment:

Class taken Spring 2018. She has a fun personality that keeps things fresh. Don't ditch lectures, as most material is learned during the seminar and is also the source of your grade. Your grade is mostly seminar participation, with an occasional easy project/exam. Do not take this class if you dislike talking/showing up. Overall: 5.0

love tamara!! such a great professor and really inspires you to become a better person & see the world differently. lectures are amazing & she makes you look forward to coming to class. However, you dont like talking & participation, this class ISNT for you because she requires everyone to talk or your grade will go down since she grades on little

This class has been the EASIEST class ive ever taken!! All this class consists of is daily presentations from your peers, a paper, midterm, final, and LOTS OF PARTICIPATION.

Tammie was great. Truely enjoyed coming to her class. Participation is 20% of grade so if your very shy or dont ever raise your hand this may not be your best choice. Also must do a class presentation. Generous grader and offered some extra credit opportunities. Would highly recommend. Share your opinions and thoughts and you will do just fine.

Prof. Arida was the best ! Her class was super easy, all you need to do everyday is participate in discussions. You will also need to do 1 presentation, 1 paper (or you can choose to do volunteering instead), a midterm, and lastly a final. The final and midterm are both opinion based, so its not too hard. Just remember to participate everyday! :D

Wow where do I start with this amazing professor. She is one of the best teacher I have ever taken at PCC. Her class is Straight forward and is an easy A. You have the option to take home the test or do it in class with open notes. Also instead of doing the research paper you can do an extra credit volunteering instead. You can't go wrong with her.

She's the best professor here at PCC. She makes class time fly and tells amazing stories. You will not regret taking her. She gives out a lot of extra credit. You won't pass if you don't participate in class. There is a midterm and final and your class gets to choose to either do it in class or take home.

She's the best choice if you're looking for an easy A. No homework, lectures every class. However, she grades almost solely on participation and discussion, so if you don't want to do that, then please don't take her. Other projects/assignments included fun extra credit, volunteering, and maybe essay or presentation.

Comment:

Take this class if Sociology is not your major and you are just taking it to fulfill your general ed requirements. But if you are a sociology major, do not take her. She does not teach, it is a pointless easy A class. She is a very nice sweet lady though but you will not learn anything sociological.

Professor Arida is arguably the easiest teacher at PCC. There are lots of extra credits and students are allowed to use notes during tests. However if you are shy or bad at speaking English, you shouldn't take this class because participation really matters. She cares about her students, you can discuss any problem with her.

What a great class. Show up, participate, take notes, get an A. Most of the class is spent listening to lectures and hearing about Tons of opportunities to get extra credit, so if you don't get an A, it's really your fault.

She's inspired me to do all types of community work! A real gem of a teacher. Participation matters but it's easy to do in her class. I looked forward to her 7 am class every Fridays. She's one of the kindest people I've ever met and is just absolutely amazing. I am learning a lot from her class. Highly recommend taking her!

If sociology is your major TAKE HER! If sociology isnt and youre just taking it to fulfill General ed requirements TAKE HER! Very easy A her class consists of a research paper, presentation, midterm, final, and participation. She allows you to replace paper & presentation with community service & raising money. Professor Arida is AMAZING!
