Comment:

I really enjoyed her teaching methods, honestly if you showed up to class, tried to do the readings prior to class and had something, anything interesting connected to the articles you would do fine. This teacher might seem demanding, but honestly spend 1 extra minute making sure you understand the assignment and you will do fine.

Comment:

This woman is not a teacher-period. She lectures on the most vague opinions, in vague ways. THen she will accuse you of being too vague when your tested in this material.She barley passes as a human being-I've grown to actually HATE her from this class.

Comment:

Do not a class with this teacher if you are out an easy grade. If you think you are taking an english class, WAKE UP! you will be bombarded with small articles (which are much more painful than some thick books)about art and music

Comment:

Had her for modern androgyny. She has some strange anal habits and some of the stereotypical harshness which probably accounts for most of her negative ratings. She is smart and a very good teacher. People are pansies and can't handle her classes i guess.

There were 5 Russian kids in the class, we all HATED it, so don't blame the good ratings on us, nor call us her favorites, as to who was, well, you decide... And DON'T TAKE THE CLASS!!!

To call this woman a "teacher" would be an insult to all the good people out there who share the same proffesion. Horrible class, horrible teacher.

Comment:

I think she rated herself a few times on here...there's no way 5 people were happy with that class, and the comments of those that rated her seem suspiciously like things she'd say. Especially the one about you not knowing, so try and find out.

Comment:

She is a VERY hard teacher. I don't know who would say she doesn't favor certain people in the class. She does! Those who say otherwise are probably the Russian students in the class who are favored by Boldina.

Comment:

her ability to challenge you and to make you think on your own is undeniable. some may not like it because they don't know how to do it. that's not her fault though. she is demanding. at times too much.

Comment:

truth never lies in the extreme position. those who fevereshly blame her are obviously biased, insecure, angry and confused. i cannot believe they did not learn anything from her class. observe both positive and negative sides: she is strict but smart.

Comment:

Yes, she is opinionated, but she knows what she is talking about. I also did not notice any favoritism. The course was tough, but I learned a lot and the readings were excellent (and she is indeed hot...)

Comment:

This is an intro class and it is the hardest one I ever taken! She is not very helpful and she is rude! Her discussions makes no sense and her readings even less. Also, she is a hugh fan of favoritism. If you are not Russian or an English major..good luck

Comment:

Worst class I have ever taken, worst teacher I have ever met-if she can be called a teacher. Clas summary:learn her unclear, bizzare opinions and then reciting them back to her in lengthy confusing assignments. Do NOT take any class she offers.

Comment:

A bad teacher who, though hot, lacks all ability to keep the interest of students. She takes material that has potential to be interesting and makes it worse then reading a math text book. She also forces you to say key words before the discussion can end

Comment:

Two words: HORRIBLE TEACHER. Do not take this class unless you want opinionated views and uninteresting discussions. The class is the longest hour and a half you'll ever have. Her teaching methods are poor and she has no people skills at all.
