I was nervous at first to take professor Harris class due to the lack of reviews... However I would definitely take her class again! Harris is not only a wonderful teacher but person as well.

She is kind, understanding, thoughtful, open-minded and so much more. Showing up, engaging and just being respectful is all she asks and deserves! I really enjoyed this class.

We went over so much engaging material, and videos and story's.. our class got deep sometimes with our discussions, the energy and the vibe was really nice and overall amazing. I had some difficulty this quarter with Fafsa and other stuff and she was so understanding, calm and easy going and was there to help me the whole way. She doesn't ask of much!, just show up and do the few readings and assignments and just engage with her.. It is a very enjoyable class and she is always there to help or listen to whatever it is you need. Trust me you'll love her and her class..

UCLA has some pretty questionable professors at times lol but she is not one of them.

The class was a little unorganized it was her first time teaching it and with all the strikes and protests it was a little difficult navigating as we switched to online. Overall I don't think the assignments were hard, she is very understanding and a sweet professor if you love structure, it is probably not the best class for you.

wow, she is super unorganized, if you are ok with a type b person go for it, but she was so all over the place and just read off her slides. never had anything prepared for our class and seemed unsure of everything she said anyways.

Highly recommend this course if you need a non-major upper division elective with no discussion and a very light workload. Readings are minimal, and the course content is interesting too. There are a few discussion posts and small creative writing assignments but they were all manageable within a full course load. Professor Harris was a generous (largely completion-based) grader and encouraged students to be creative and adapt the course content to their own culture.

I loved this class. Guaranteed A if u put in the work. The midterm exam is open book/open note, there’s no final exam instead u have to do a final project which can be an essay or presentation. This class did involve reading that needed to be done before class since during class you’d go into groups to discuss the readings. Overall, the workload was definitely manageable and the professor is really sweet

I had such trouble in this class. It wasn't even because of the material, but rather the exams themselves. I know it's the department that creates the exams, but I struggled so much on them because I feel like a lot of the questions were open to interpretation. As a teacher, Audrey was nice but I think she could have done better teaching-wise. I felt like she just went through the curriculum but did not necessarily connect with her students. I took Spanish 5 the following quarter and loved my new teacher as she took the time to ask the students what we felt like we needed to work on and attempted to gauge where we were at in the language before she delved into the material. I appreciated that and I think Audrey's future students would as well if she were to do something similar.

I took three classes with professor Harris: M155A, M155B, and 155C. I thoroughly enjoyed her classes and the literature we had to read. In fact, I learned about one of my favorite books "The Miraculous Day of Amalia Gómez" in her class. Professor Harris introduced interesting topics for our class discussion, which were always very relevant to this day and age. She made great parallels to the social issues of the Chicano movement to present-day ones. She encouraged class participation, so I would recommend staying on top of the reading assignments. Her midterms and finals were also more creative. For one of the classes, she gave us the choice of PowerPoint presentation, scripted video, or written essay. I do feel like this was one of the few classes I took at UCLA, where I was able to use my creativity instead of writing your traditional 10-page essay. I also liked how lectures weren't limited to literature, she would also share relevant digital media. One of my favorite lectures was when she brought the director of "No mas bebes" to talk to the class after a class viewing of the documentary! Professor Harris is also nice and easy to talk to. I always felt comfortable sharing my ideas and point of view during class discussions. I would definitely recommend any of her courses if you are looking for compelling literature and engaging conversations.

Professor Harris was very passionate in helping her students engage and understand the material. I am very glad I enrolled in her course and learned a ton about Chicanx literature and history. Highly recommend taking courses with her.

Love Professor Harris! I enjoyed her class so much that I am taking another class of hers this coming quarter.

Professor Harris is an amazing, genuine and kind person. She is very engaging, really cares about her students and is a passionate instructor. She takes her time to hear the students opinions on topics discussed in class and is open to learning new trends surrounding these topics. The class is very interesting, you learn a lot of Aztec folklore and popular modern day folklore like La Llorona. My favorite topics discussed were on Dia de Los Muertos. As a class we made an ofrenda and told stories of our loved ones who passed. This class was probably the best experience I've had not just as a college student but as a Chicanx. She bruincasted discussions and lectures as much as she could which was so helpful to not only those students who felt sick (as Covid-19 was still an issue) but also to commuter students and immunocomprised students or students who live with immunocomprised relatives. A lot of the class is discussion led so participation really makes the class the most interesting. As far as workload goes, there are weekly readings, a couple of short papers, a midterm and a final project. Nothing too overwhelming. She also gives students the opportunity to turn in artistic pieces for the final project that are related to topics discussed in class. Overall, I'd highly recommend taking this class with Professor Audrey, as I'm sure you'll love your experience too.
