Very kind and understanding professor that cares about the success of her students. There was a fair amount of reading but quizzes were very straightforward, the group project was interesting, and just overall a decent course.

Awesome lady! There are some things that could improve in her class but it is an easy A if you participate and do what you are supposed to. She is really friendly overall, she gets angry for no reason in class but nothing too bad. Great human being!

Very nice, made an effort to know every student. Frequently tells students to "cut the words by 50%" so be succinct. Highly recommended.

Very fun times! She actually teaches relevant things in her class and she always makes class interesting. There was not a single boring class for the entire year. Excessly uses "etc."

Comment:

She tells you exactly what's going to be on the exams. When you're up in front giving presentations she's a little annoying because she constantly interrupts, but she's nice and really only trying to help.

A brilliant and refreshing approach to class. I had her at 8am, and she nearly had perfect attendance (or at least it seemed) for the entire term. That is saying something!

Business Leaderhip. GREAT class! Probably one of my favorite that I have taken at WPI. Easier than MG2300. Did a good job teaching/interacting with the class. Very nice Professor. WPI is lucky to have her.

Definitely a different way of teaching. Not your usual lecture format, but an interactive one that kept the class interested. Extremely supportive outside of class.

Comment:

Class was ok. She doesn't lecture enough though. Can be VERY obscure in requirements for assignments. I will say however that she does care deeply about students and is willing to listen and help. Says "etc" too much though.

Very fun interactive class; plenty of activities. Only fault is that when she gives assignments it's given very nonchalantly, so sometimes you miss it or don't understand the importance of it.
