Amazing, inspirational, energetic and one of my absolute favorite professors. I love how she interacted with all her students and even remembered all our names. Sad that she's going since I wanted to take more of her classes.

Incredibly enthusiastic and loves to explain things if there are any questions. Sometimes fast in her lectures, but does not really allow room for confusion. Fantastic professor overall for Intro to Logic.

Battaly is amazing and super hilarious. You'll enjoy her class so much. The materials do get confusing and tricky at first, but she will make sure you will get it and once you know what you're doing, you'll do fine on the test. She may come off as weird at first, but I assure you, Battaly is SO INSPIRING and like i said, AMAZING!! TAKE HER CLASS!!

If you are planning on taking the LSAT, you NEED to take this symbolic logic class. Not only is Battaly the BEST EVER, understanding, and funny, she is a wicked smart teacher. I went from getting -14 on my logic games sections to getting -2 or -0. My Oct. LSAT score soared a full 16 points higher than my previous pretests thanks to this class.

Do not expect her to reply to your emails. She is too busy complaining about her department responsibilities.

Battaly is an amazing professor, and she inspires you to be a better person. 0 regrets for taking this class. Many people had problems with the material, but Battaly clarified it very well. Grading is beyond fair. Textbook is required for HW assignments. Other than that, she gives handouts that you can study along with your HW and notes. Easy A!!!

Battaly is the most enthusiastic teacher I've ever had! She really knows her stuff and is great at clarifying confusing topics. She's an easy grader and will work very hard to make sure everyone understands the subject. There are 3 tests and 5 hw assignments. Loved coming to class and logic is awesome. Definitely recommend her!

Such a helpful class! She has such passion for the material, and ensures that everybody develops the skill necessary to work the derivations. The material got difficult at times. But if you ask your questions, she makes sure you understand. If you like language + math, take this!!

Battaly is an amazing teacher, she really takes in interest in her students and pushes you to succeed. She cares. a lot. and this is really evident in how she bends over backwards to make sure that she's readily available anytime you need her. i'm not so interested in philosophy, but i would take another class just to have her again.

Battaly is really awesome! At first you might think to yourself that the class is TOO easy but eventually you'll see that Battaly is just really good at communicating the material. She's very very fair at grading. The material can be a bit dry and mundane but she does her best to keep it interesting.

Great teacher! She really loves philosophy and makes the class extremely fun! Funny teacher. My favorite class even though I'm an Engineering major. DO NOT get discouraged! The first 3 homework assignments are hard but the rest are simple. Study for tests, pay attention and you will get an A like I did.

It was a delight to take her for the Seminar in Metaphysics and Epistemology.She is crystal clear on her instructions and lectures.She encourages class discussion--if you're shy, do put some effort in speaking up.She actually remembers students' names, which gives solace knowing that you're not just a person on the list.A very virtuous person. :)
