Comment:

She has no empathy for students. one time me and another student did not show up for a test because we were sick and did not let us make it up. it doesn't make any sense. also be prepared to spend a lot of money on theatre tickets for this class. worst grader I've ever met. don't take her unless you need to.

Literally the oddest grader I've ever met. She treats the class like they are still in high school for example if you spend more than 6 minutes in the bathroom that's 2 points off your final grade, you come into class 2 minutes late 2 points off final grade, you don't come to class 4 points off final grade, she see you on your phone, 2 points off.

She is a nice lady. Although her hearing is not too good, her sight is. If she catches you using your phone, she will take points off. You have to participate everyday; she makes you read scripts in front of the class. Don't buy the book, ask someone to let you take pictures because you will only need it for one project and that is it.

Professor Bellog is a sweet lady, but is very confusing. She knows a lot of information about theater, but she gets off topic a lot. You will be doing 3 different things at once. This class is an easy A, you show up and do the work, that's it.

Take her if you want A. She gives you the opportunity to get A. She gives 2 extra credit which count two times and she doesnt divided them to your final grade. If you go to writing center, you get 10 extra point for every essay. She is very nice but tough grader. I found most of my friends in this class. My best class so far.

Bellog is hilarious and probably the easiest professor you will meet. She is passionate about theater. This was a UCC for me (I have no passion in theater whatsoever, but she made it somewhat bearable). Also, SHOW UP TO CLASS AND DON'T BE ON YOUR PHONE, she does NOT mess around.

Prof Bellog is really a sweetheart who loves to teach but the material. often drags on and she is an extremely tough grader (shell take off points for not filling all of the lines on the paper). She's a fun teacher but you need to put a lot of effort or you'll fail quickly she gives a lot of work.

Professor Bellog is very pationate about teaching. She's very caring and willing to accept late work (deducts 10 points every class it's late). This class requires A LOT of participation, but it will help you become a more conversational person and put yourself out there. I deff recommend it to shy people who want to break out of their shell!

This class was apart of my first semester so i didn't choose to take it. I don't like theater so i wasn't looking forward to this class anyway. The teacher is really hyper all the time, and has a hearing aid so she gets really close to hear you. had to watch two plays that i had to pay or myself. Rented the books that i used like twice.

She is a nice lady but kind of annoying. She can't hear and likes to yell. She makes you teach the class and do group projects. There is no midterm or final just a final project. Makes you go to 2 plays and write critiques on them. Gives a lot of extra credit.

She expects so much out of her students when half of our class is full of Criminal Justice majors rather than Theater majors. She's more deaf than a bat. If she can't hear what you're saying she will literally get up and jump in your face to hear you. If you don't like acting or doing any thing of the sort in front of people, then don't take it.

Comment:

She tends to go on tangents every class so we never got much done. By the end of the semester she was rushing to finish students' chapter presentations. The chapter presentations rarely helped at all so it's important to read the chapter to pass the tests. Just show up, read the book, and be thorough with your work and it'll be easy to pass.

Comment:

This class was ridiculous. The professor overloads you with work, (not like you have other classes) and in the beginning and expects us to memorize the plays of the class on a weekly basis. Besides the fact that she can be an incredibly hard grader, she tries to find reasons to make you lose points in her quizzes and others.

I just took her this semester. You have to act only once, but it's very easy. She gives you the answers to all the tests, pay attention to her reviews and you will pass easily. The tests on the reading are easy as well. If you are interested in this class, take it on Saturday. One of the nicest teachers I have met. She really cares.

The person who wrote that b4 was probably her couple of brown nosers. This lady was horrible!! We taught ourselves and she would give test on things before even going over it. Ridiculous!! She knows her stuff but fails at executing it in a proper matter. You want a real professor for this go to JERRY BEAL! Having her was such a waste of my Saturday

I absolutely loved this course. Yes, it was during Saturday, but it was so fun that I was excited to go. Dr. Bellog helped me find my talent I never knew I had. Now I am pursuing acting thanks to her!

THIS CLASS REQUIRES A LOT OF WORK! There are 2 books needed for the course. Her class covers tests every weekend (small book), a chapter presentation, a creative presentation. On top of all, Exam 1 and 2 are 5 chapters each (big book). I didn't enjoy the class at all, it was very boring.

She is horrible. Do not take her. She gives too much work for a 100 course level. She makes it seem like everybody in that class is a theater major. And she gives quizzes and then discusses what the chapters were about...do not take her

Initally, I thought she had given way too much homework, however, I have since changed my mind. It's close to the end of the semester and we have completed all the work needed to be done. She warned us that more work will be assigned at the beginning allowing us less at the end. loved her class!
