Maria Hatjigeorgiou
Maria is perfect if you want an individualized learning experience or to get more attuned to your inner life. The class also fosters community in a way other classes hardly do. The course materials are very rooted in Christianity, though.
This course is very interesting and valuable if you are interested in religion and want to learn more about mysticism. Professor Maria is extremely passionate about this class and you can truly tell it's taught from the heart. There is not much homework for the class outside of the readings, but the discussions are important so the readings are necessary.
Professor Maria is very passionate in her work! She encourages students to think deeper and hears everyone's thoughts very tentatively. The readings can be heavy sometimes, but they're enjoyable and she will be very understanding if you're slightly behind. She does her best to work with every student individually to meet their needs.
