Amber Daniels THET251 Expecting an A+ admin 07/26/2025	Fun class. She is passionate about the material. She also does a good job at teaching you how to write about musicals properly, which is admittedly a bit of an adjustment. I took this class in the summer and there were only 6 live class meetings, so each one felt like a bit of a mad dash. You get to pick which final project musical you do from an extensive list, so finding one that interests you should be easy.
Amber Daniels THET251 Expecting an A+ Anonymous 11/11/2024	Great class and professor!!! Amber is soooo nice and wants you to succeed. In every class she always appeared very excited to teach the course content given her background in dance and theater. If you like Broadway or just don't mind watching musicals this class is for you. Personally, I enjoyed being able to watch current and previous Broadway musicals as homework assignments, but you have to pay attention because there are normally quizzes on each one with specific questions about random details of the musical. You should also go to every class because there are participation/attendance points. As long as you are trying your best on every assignment you should get full credit- she cares most about effort. If you are looking for an easy A that fulfills many GEN-ED requirements then I definitely recommend taking this!
Amber Daniels THET251 Expecting an A+ admin 05/23/2024	This class is soooo easy but you can tell Amber doesn't want to be here. She's a dancer, not much of a theater analyst person. pretty sure 95% of people got an A+.
Amber Daniels THET251 Expecting an A+ admin 05/12/2024	Great course and absolutely wonderful teacher, would 100% take it over again if I could. This course is somewhat heavy on hw (just because every 2 weeks you have to watch an entire musical and there's no real way to get around it, plus there's a somewhat significant Discussion board every week that you likely allocate an hr to) but the time in the class is great and is such a fun experience. Amber really does work hard to make the course exciting as she recognizes most people in the course already have a significant interest in musicals so she really taps into that to really give the students what they want out of the course. Amber herself is also really accommodating and tries to make everything as easy as possible while still having you learn what is needed. Overall great class, would highly recommend it for anyone, and is a really easy A for a class that gives 3 gen-ed requirements!
Amber Daniels THET251 Expecting an A+ admin 04/30/2024	Amber is such a fun professor, especially for a course like THET251. She's super engaging, talkative, and has loads of experience. She always keeps class interesting with different activities. Assignments can be time-consuming sometimes but very easy and often pretty fun.
Amber Daniels DANC200 Expecting an A- admin 04/10/2023	This is literally the worst course ive ever taken. Dont expect an easy a. Out of my four other major courses and this, this is my lowest grade. I put the most effort into this class and am graded so harshly for every assignment. Definitely dont recommend
Amber Daniels DANC138A Expecting an A+ admin 10/24/2022	Very kind and understanding professor. Keeps the students engaged during class with her positive and optimistic attitude. The class is meeting twice and week and learning new dances. She takes the time to explain the movements and is overall a fun professor to have.
Amber Daniels THET251 Expecting an A+ Anonymous 06/03/2022	While the class involved a fair bit of work (watching a 2+ hour musical every week, taking a quiz, and writing a discussion post), Amber worked to make sure we were not overwhelmed by it and eliminated assignments when necessary. She did mispronounce a few words (like assimilation was assimulation), but that was easy to overlook. She tried to make the class fun, and is definitely an instructor you can ask for help.
