Comment:

I agree with the person below me. She is a horrible teacher. Trust me you do not want to take her. She is disrespectful and way too opinionated to the point that whatever you say does not matter. Don't fall for her cute old lady exterior its fake and so is she.

Comment:

Whoever left her a good comment is a liar. She is a horrible professor. She is old and can not hear anything. She is demeaning and if you don't write something exactly the way she thinks it should be she takes off points. Be sure to check your test and papers for the correct grade b/c she cannot count and never calculates grades correctly

She's a bit of an airhead but so cute. Ironically, on a couple of occasions I had to correct her grammar or choice of words, or help her better explain what she was trying to explain, but overall, an easy A. Recommended.

Comment:

She is a good teacher, but you will have to work hard for your grade. Expect to stay after class to go over your essays or quizzes. She will always take time out for you if you need individual help or attention. If you take her you will have a fun semester, a little frustrating at times though.

she is a really good Prof. She wants her students to do well and tries to help them. However, she is a hard grader. Her assignments are pretty easy, but in order to get an A you have to be perfect. She is very picky. you will learn a lot form her.
