Cecilia Huertas Cerdeira ENME331 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/23/2023	Dr Huertas goes pretty fast because she is often not speaking to the class. She simply copies what she has written on her notes. This means many students miss important content when she makes a new slide to scrawl fast on. There was no support for understanding the material, since the TAs were pretty useless. Nobody responded to emails promptly, so homework questions often went unanswered until well after it was due. The professor moved through topics without reviewing their purpose or relationship to other chapters, meaning everything felt very pointless until we were forced to put it all together for homework. Also, much of the syntax she uses is not consistent with the TAs and textbook. The other professor, Dr Riaz has similar problems with his teaching.
Cecilia Huertas Cerdeira ENME331 Expecting an A- Anonymous 05/21/2023	this time around she taught lecture and riaz did the studios. tbh lectures were just boring and her writing on the slides with the pwerpoint drawing tool is p bad to read over but she super nice. there is always never enough practice for the midterms and final which is y everyone did p bad on them. she knows her stuff but cant teach well. my advice just skip and watch dr Biddle on youtube
Cecilia Huertas Cerdeira ENME331 Anonymous 12/27/2021	Huertas led the studio sessions and review sessions before exams. I think she is new and is learning how to teach a college course. She is kind of awkward but wants students to get involved. In-studio she asked questions for students to answer/help out while solving a problem, but no one raised their hands, so eventually, she stopped asking. Huertas is not consistent with writing out solutions where she will either show a lot of steps or skip some steps. Sometimes her work has an error or two. She is new, so cut her some slack, but could be better, could be worse. She does know the content, but learning how to teach it is the challenge.
