Summer 2020 - This class was interesting and an easy A! The professor was extremely accommodating and made himself available if we needed him. There are no discussions so all assignments are graded by him. He gives a study guide and as long as you do it you should be fine for the midterm and final. For the papers, he will give the guidelines, and as long as you do everything he asks you'll get a perfect score.

Spring 2018 - One of my favorite classes I have taken so far at UCLA. Many people that have the College of L&S GE Reqs. don't know this class counts as one. It is a super easy class and really entertaining. The professor commonly made the whole lecture hall participate in replicating a song/singing, which is really good for an early class. I loved every moment of this class and I wish there was more like it. The assignments and tests are super straightforward and easy, as long as you study(I say this in a very loose way). You could just study the slides and vocab before a test and you will for sure pass. The final project is super easy too if you choose to perform/write a song. It is a lot better than writing a 10-page essay. Overall I wish there was another class that followed this one. Dr. Warden was absolutely an amazing and great professor. Would 100% recommend this class to anyone.
