Comment:

she does not teach at all. she bases the class on our resentations and on the text book. she doesn't go over what we are supposed to have read but bases the tests on that. she talks so low that the class can barely understand her also.

Comment:

I never use these things, but I'm doing it simply to warn people. Doesn't teach or lecture (teach yourself the course), doesn't answer questions, mocks students. Very unclear and not helpful by any means. You may do good in her class, but you'll be miserable while taking it.

Comment:

Oy. This was by far the least structured class I have ever taken in my life. If you are looking how to use effective teaching methods in your future classrooms, do not use her teaching as an example. I'm doing fine in the class, but her teaching is just off the wall- nothing gets answered, no lectures are given, testing is sporadic and not explaine

Comment:

Does not have very much respect for her students. I am a straight A student and this was the only class I ever withdrew from out of sheer disgust for the woman. I ended up changing my major. Good Luck!

Comment:

The class has alot of imformation to offer, pointless information might i add, and prof. ryan can nottttt clearly explain anything, she doesnt understand questions posed to her, and she brings up irrelevant topics all the time...get ready for a class that requires self teaching. Read the text book, its your only hope....

Not an easy professor but she's respectable. Expects things to be done a certain way. Can do well if you try, not an easy A.

She was an excellent supervisor throughout my student teaching at St. Joseph's. She was very helpful and direct with all the seminar students. Her dedication will push her students to become excellent teachers.

Comment:

STAY AWAY!!!! I have a 4.0 up until now and this class was not even my hardest- it is because she is a horrible teacher and her tests were ridiculous. She wants EVERYTHING her way and if it is not then it will be reflected in your grade. I barely learned a thing- DO NOT TAKE HER!!!! I wish I didn't

Comment:

She was the worst teacher I have ever had. She was degrading, picked on things that didn't matter, and would have destroyed my self esteem if I cared what she thought. Do NOT take her class, esp if ur unsure about the teaching profession. I did well in the class but the stress wasn't worth it.

Comment:

Of all my years of being educated, never have I learned so little, been so frustrated, and wished so much harm on a person. She is the biggest disgrace to eduaction and she must be stopped! DO NOT TAKE HER if you want to pass. The work is not hard, rather she is simply a horrible teacher.

She sucks!!! She is the most unhelpful teacher I have ever had in my life!!! Honestly either you do things her way or it's the highway. Plus she'll give you an assignemnt, you'll do it and hand it to her and then she will completely change her mind on what she wanted. **** her and that class!!!!!

Good teacher to take if you are willing to earn an A. She gives a lot of assignments, but she is always available to help clarify and questions. As long as you do the work the class should not be difficult.

DO NOT TAKE HER! She is unbelievable, I wasn't sure that I could survive her class. Honestly, she is just down right mean sometimes.
