Absolutely horrendous professor would definitely push this class off a semester if she is the only option. Does not know how to teach whatsoever, struggles to read off a powerpoint, specifically has TAs grade assignments harshly. Only good thing about the class is that you get a two page cheat sheet in addition to given equations.

Very nice professor, really knows what she is talking about. Pretty light grader as well which is a positive.

Only take a class with her if you have no other options for teachers. The class will be easy (helped by her ridiculous grading policies), but you won't learn anything. She's a mediocre teacher at best, and seems to have no clue how to "connect the dots" and tie in older material to new stuff you're learning. She doesn't really seem to care much about her students, and to top it off is pretty difficult to understand.

The course is easy and she does try really hard to help but you will get annoyed with the word "actually" by the end of the course. As long as you show that you are trying you will get an A.

This class was a typical intro engineering course. However, Martinez-Miranda made the class much more difficult to understand than it should have been. She was a nice enough person and gave a good percentage of A's, but she was impossible to understand. She said actually more times each lecture than a normal person would in a lifetime. I you have a choice, go with another professor.

Note: the rating is for the professor, not the course in general. The course itself is your typical rite-of-passage intro engineering course. However, this is one of those classes where you have to put in WAYYY too much work outside of class (about 3-4 hours per week OUTSIDE of class). At least Martinez-Miranda was pretty lenient with the A's. Now as for her...Where do I begin? IMPOSSIBLE to understand during lectures. Repeats herself way too much. I counted one time. She said the word "actually" 120 times in the span of one hour. I literally learned nothing from her class. If you're doing Materials Science, I'm sorry. If you're not, then STAY AWAY!
