-do not breathe in class, your seat will get moved -try studying with other students, she WILL NOT teach it -be ready for dumb attempts at "lesson diversity" -she will interject with political beliefs. teachers are not allowed to do this, but do not directly cal her out

cuesta is possibly the worst history teacher in the entire school. not only does she not teach/go over the material, but she interjects her own political beliefs into the subject in place of having us learn. she spends more time telling kids to stop talking so loudly (most of the time this is when they are WHISPERING) than she does "teaching" the class. lessons are replaced by simply doing guided reading packets and going over them in class. when confronted about this, she makes up an excuse along the lines of "ap and honors classes are all like this!!!!! 11! " despite them actually teaching the subject material.
