Th 121: Ms. Charity Durano

Subject: Th 121: An Introduction to Doing a Catholic Theology

General Advice: Start strong early on and some signs of consistency will eventually set your eyes on the prize. ‘A’ Don’t worry about the first day. She starts off every semester with every class the same way. Believe me when I say she’s really nice. Basically, take some time to understand what you’re reading and learn it in your own words/language so that explaining it during exams (both orals and written) will become natural.

Teaching Style: Doesn’t like to be interrupted when teaching but if itching for a question, exceptions are allowed. She gives notes of all her lectures so take down more of the “inputs” than the technical stuff. She’s traditional and prefers to use the blackboard and the OHP projector. Moreover, she’s got one of the most relaxing voices that sometimes puts you to sleep rest but put an effort to listen. Though she wouldn’t mind if you sleep in her class, it would help ease the burden of preparations once there’s initiative to listen to the lesson.

Requirement Level: Moderate

Study Habits: Use the Bible, absorb the notes and prepare for the group works.

A-able Factor (1-Easiest, 5- Hardest): 3 only because it’s hard to be consistent.
