Overall I really liked Professor Fernandez and she was very accessible outside of class, but enviro was much more difficult than it needed to be. I never really understood the content and they way she taught the class was very chaotic. She often felt somewhat unprepared or all over the place, and it could be hard to follow her lectures.CIVE2334 2025-12-16 19:27:17 +0000 UTC
Prof. Fernandez is super passionate about what she is teaching. Sometimes her teaching is all over the place, but the objectives for each unit make it clear what she wants you to know. The tests are pretty straight forward if you do the hw and understand the objectives. Her class was really interesting for all things environmental!CIVE2334 2025-05-04 15:33:44 +0000 UTC

Professor Fernandez is great. She is super nice and easy to talk to, always eager to discuss homework and provide help outside of class. 10/10 would take again.CIVE2334 2024-10-16 05:11:25 +0000 UTC
Professor Fernandez is super nice and easily accessible outside of class. Her class covers a lot of material but she manages to make it relatively digestible. Her lectures can be a bit all over the place but I still got the gist from each one. Do and understand the homework. If you do that the tests are relatively easy.CIVE2334 2022-12-17 03:46:31 +0000 UTC
Lectures are pretty confusing and hard to follow at times. That being said, still had a good experience. Tests were graded fairly, homework was very helpful, professor loves the subject and cares a lot. Solid class.CIVE2334 2022-12-02 20:10:07 +0000 UTC
Overall, I enjoyed this class and Professor Fernandez. She is super nice and the tests aren't too bad if you do the homework problems. You only have one homework assignment per week which is less than 10 questions. The only thing was lectures are kind of all over the place, so I often had to learn some things on my own from the textbook or online.CIVE2334 2022-05-10 13:19:45 +0000 UTC
