i had her for theo 13! according to her, most of her insights for dlq don't differ from the ones she shares in theo 13. because of this, i highly reccomend taking ma'am rosal! she's very engaging when she teaches. and as a queer person, her theo class was a much needed safe space. she likes giving quizzes, but they're not difficult so long as you pay attention in class. she encourages the exchange of different ideas in her class, so if you want a good grade, participate when you can. i genuinely learned a lot from her 🫶more

nawt really, if you'll also have oral examinations for dlq, she can tell if di ka nagprepare for a presentation OR you did the bare minimum. she allows you to use index cards when presenting, but she really pays attention to whether you're just reading or you truly understand what you're talking about. to get a good grade, i personally took a lot of notes. she usually quizzes you on stuff she says, and sometimes it's on the slides she uses but not all the time. she'll say "write this down", and usually it will be on the quiz/exam. so you really have to pay attention in class :))

TAKE HER! Got an A in her class, so I can say, A-able naman si Ma'am. Super engaging ng class nya and hindi rin super daming ng reqs. Super tropa vibes lang si Ma'am and relatable yung mga examples na sinasabi nya in class. Would definitely take her class if I have a chance ❤more

Had her for 151 and she's a pretty okay prof. Nothing mind blowing, personally. She's nice and grades fairly in my opinion. Not really easy A (she gave a bunch of people F/Ds in the midterm orals but she'll give everyone equal opportunities to make up for bad marks naman I think)more

My friend messaged me about Miss Rosal and they have consented me to share their experience
I saw your post sa profs to pick on lesley ann rosal. I had her as my theo prof last year. She doesn't use PowerPoint but she uses the board A LOT. She gives incentives for perfect attendance(100% on class participation instant) and sometimes add points to quiz just because of your attendance
By really good prof, she really pushes for the students to recite and actually give their insights on the subject matter. I learned from her talaga and I would say she did her job really well
On theo we have regular quizzes which are really easy
++she provides bonus questions/points at the back side of the paper(mostly k-pop related -- she's a "carat" so a fan of a k-pop boy group named Seventeen) We had one major paper and presentation and various random personal stuff
Not an easy A since you really need to work for it but she grades fair
For my experience sa subject, she's a really good prof but idk about DLQ 10🤷♂️🤷♂️more
mixedTHEO 13
hello! ill drop my review i wrote for her when i took her theo 13 class. might not apply 100%, but theres some carry over for sure:
highly recommended tbh!! tho not an easy A, her classes really do teach you so much about love and discernment.
first thing to note is shes pretty strict when it comes to attendance. if youre late or absent, that most likely wont be rectified unless you have a valid excuse (usually kailangan ng med cert of some kind for this). if di ka umabot sa role call, automatic late na yun even if you show up a few minutes later.
the workload can be relatively heavy din, but thats mostly due to the readings. you definitely need to dig into the materials outside of class to get a sense of the discussion + to prepare for the short quizzes, so as long as you manage your time well and read a little bit each day, you’ll be able to do well.
pro tip for this class: dont be absent during quizzes, and really prepare for them. i failed this class because of crucial mistakes during midterms and finals, but also because i didnt have a few quizzes due to absences/lates that brought my grade down just below the minimum passing grade. DONT DO IT LIKE I DID 😭
despite all of this seemingly coming off as negative (strict siya, heavy workload), her lectures are really great. her life is very storied, and so she lectures from a place of passion. she puts in a lot of effort during her discussions, and i think the way she grades and constructs the course is based on the fact that she expects a lot of effort from the students din.
i took her class during a bad time in my life (breakup 😭) kaya ako bumagsak, but at the same time she taught a lot of valuable lessons that ill carry with me. alongside that she was always very kind, even if i wasnt the best student.
tldr: if you have time and effort to spare, i say go for it! you wont regret it even if you dont get that A ❤more

[UPDATE] had her for first sem and the reviews here are pretty much correct lawl! take attendance seriously, REALLY review for the quizzes because they rely heavily on the readings + include specific details that might have been missed if u just skimmed, make sure to include the concepts discussed in major reqs, get good groupmates (!!!!!!) and you're good to go 🫶 consultation helps and so does reciting in class / giving ur comments and insights 😁 she's really appreciative of those and would remember u!
the indiv and group presentations will pull your grade up HARDDDD. personally fuawked up the quizzes (think, 30-50% score 💀), and was quiet lang in class, but i still got a B+!! bawi asf with the orals HAHA.
the subject WILL feel like a drag, esp for me since 8am yung naging sched ko, but maam is really passionate and knowledgeable about the course, very millenial tropa vibes, and whether or not you like the course you will learn something from it in the end! be prepared lang talaga because this class is HEAVYYY. she will be your best pick among batch 2 profsmore
mixedTHEO 13
hello!! would highly recommend taking maam lee-an for THEO 13 🫶🏼 you'll enjoy and learn so much from her class even if you don't consider yourself a practicing catholic. i appreciate how she actively tries to make her classes a safe space for everyone to share about their life experiences, so it really feels like you're having therapy sessions twice a week 🫂
maam is keen on attendance so you'd want to arrive early since she starts class on time. she tends to be fast-paced during discussions (as in lipat agad ng slide before you can even finish taking notes HDKSHD) but slows down a bit when she's telling personal anecdotes related to the lesson. what i like the most about her discussions is that she handles church teachings on controversial topics well and also encourages you to question these teachings. she makes it a point to facilitate healthy conversations in class not only through lectures but also through small group discussions :>
for class requirements, expect to have announced and surprise quizzes based on the readings/videos she gives 🤓 quizzes are mostly objective too! you'll have two major outputs (both oral exams), one individual for midterms and one group output for finals. the first one is also a bit more personal since you'll have to talk about your vocation story in relation to concepts you'll be learning from the modules. for the final group output naman, you'll have to analyze and come up with a group stance regarding a moral issue related to the module on family. ma'am really expects you to know your topic and sources well and will ask you questions that challenge you to think critically and properly apply what you've learned.
maam is very approachable both inside and outside of the classroom! you can talk to her or even ask her for advice about anything and she'll make time to listen. she's very affirming and supportive and won't judge you whether or not you believe in god. she's like an older sister and i mean this in the best way possible! 🙆🏻♀️
overall, B+ able with effort and super duper life-changing! i'd take her class again if i could :> good luck!! 🤍more

saks lang HAHAHA tl;dr one of the better batch 2-able profs
strict with attendance and doesn't allow anyone to go out of the class even for restroom breaks after the second bell
I love how she conducts her classes though! she says and discusses stuff you won't find her canvas modules. I come out of it learning something new BUT make sure you read the text beforehand because she likes calling random people for recit. she also does on-the-spot paired/group discussions and you have to present agad
i remember taking lots of short quizzes here and there and they're all about the reading that you should have read before coming in to class. you may or may not need to memorize it word for word because some items are fill in the blanks. BUT if you like kpop (especially BTS), your fan knowledge may merit you some points lol
her orals = presentations, indiv for midterms and group for finals. you get to choose your groupmates naman
be warned that she has very high standards though you can consult and she gives (not so timely) feedback naman. not exactly A-able but it's one of those life-changing classes where u don't need to sell ur soul to pass 🥳more

Update
Terrible pick for online class
Has graded discussion boards after every module that asks for your insights in which she expects you to literally reiterate all the points of the module. Also asks you to react or comment on other people's post in the board, else you get a reduction (I honestly don't get what I'd learn out of doing it though).
Slow and unreasonable at grading (especially with the discussion boards mentioned above). Very tita in a bad way, thinks of too many extra stuff to incorporate in the class like pop references (some make sense, a certain one she just keeps spamming cuz its her fave group).
She also had 2 papers (5-7 page reflection paper about 2 modules and 15+ page final group paper) and a podcast as requirements.
It may be just me, but take at your own risk 😴more
