Wow! I love Professor Mares. She is very caring and understanding of students. Not only that, but you can tell she really wanted nothing but success for her students. She is more than passionate about class and the subject she teaches. Lectures were easy to follow and neither boring nor too wordy. It is very easy to succeed in this class.

Lectures often hard to follow, and the expectations for our semester project were not very clearly laid out.

Professor Mares really takes the time to make sure the content is easy to understand and doesn't leave any of her students behind. If you show up to the lectures and discussions and take good notes, you will be able to do well.

Prof. Mares is actually the sweetest person in the world and can do no wrong. She's caring toward her students and understands our lives outside of class (real ex.: rescheduling our exam so it's not set right after the election anymore). We get to bring a full sheet of note paper for each exam, and the study guides are so useful!

Professor Mares is incredibly kind, caring, and always willing to answer questions. She made the material engaging and accessible. With a cheat sheet for every exam, I was able to focus on truly understanding the content and mastering concepts. There were plenty of extra credit opportunities, and I highly recommend this course for QRB credits.

She is genuinely the kindest professor ever and cares so much about her students. CA 361 is the easiest class I've ever taken in my life. I keep getting 100% on the exams. It looks suspicious at this point. The study guide is the exact test and she lets you bring a cheat sheet. My TA Jinyoung is equally as lovely and kind as well.
