Cons: None that I can think of
I love her.
Understanding
Cons: odd voice and tone
Cons: This is anything but an interesting class. If you enjoy being spoken to like your in grade school, then this is your class.
This class has you reading 100+ pages a night with an essay about every other week. Little time is available to really appreciate what you are reading.
Don't bother buying the recommended books "Mythic Warrior's Handbook" or "A Short Guide to Classical Mythology". They are never read and provide little insight to the subject. The latter can be somewhat helpful after you take the class, but provides little information other than what's in the texts' glossaries. The former is complete garbage, as it attempts to summarize Greek myths into modern slang. Picture your grandfather trying to be "hip" and fit in with the younger crowd. Irksome, isn't it?
Cons: LOTS of little books. Expected to keep up with nightly reading.
the class is set up well
TAs are good
Cons: not a very good teacher
Cons: There is a LOT of reading and papers, the exams are tough and you are expected to know a lot of random information
Cons: Her voice is too soothing and soft...So tend to make me fall asleep
