She is a lovely person and is one of the best professor I had while at Uwaterloo. Her Geography of Transportation class changed my life and put me on my current career path.

Comment:

Great course that I was excited to take. Assignments require basic math (descriptive stats) and written rationalization. She's a great prof- likely the best I've had in university. She's a bit tought on marking the presentations but it's interesting to be able to see real-world applications of course content.

Comment:

Took her course back in 1st year. If you smile or say hi to her, she always returns it, even 2 years later. Very nice. Makes a boring subject interesting, I actually liked going to class. Perfect difficulty level to filter out the students who never show up to class and only study the night before exams.

Interesting class. Easy assignments and midterms. Final was more challenging. Very passionate about the course content but confusing lecturer. Difficult to understand thought process sometimes.

Comment:

Jean is a good prof, committed to her students, and committed to education. She connects with students by being funny. Her 'textbook' is that you have to print off a pdf document and fill it in as you go along in the course, a very good way to learn.

Comment:

I hated any kind of math class but when I took stats with Jean she helped so much. Math always terrified me but she helped so much. It was a 8:30 class but she was able to keep my attention really knows what she's talking about and is able to break things down well. She is awesome def have class with her if you have the choice.

Comment:

I really had no interest in stats and Jean Andrey tried but as the class was at 8:30a.m only half the class showed up and everyone was tired. She's OK but when people don't understand she doesn't know how to explain differently. Tutorials and the TAs were useless.

Comment:

Prof frequently goes off topic and is very annoying. If you are trying to follow her thought process in class you might as well give up. The only saving factor is the assignments, otherwise you will likely fail because you have no idea what you're doing half of the time ( because of her rants/off topic tendencies).

Comment:

Makes stats enjoyable, surprisingly. Understands how hard students find it and has found a way to teach it in a good way. Great in office hours. Very helpful and doesn't make you feel dumb at all. If you have to take stats, you must take it with Jean.

Comment:

Easy marks from class participation.No textbook, have to take your own notes as she just talks from the slides. The 2 assignments are extremely hard.Final is just based from your her notes. However, she is a very good prof and I strongly recommend her. This course is actually very interesting.

Comment:

The diversity of opinions on Jean reflect the various maturity levels of the students rating here. If you are mature, respectful and are there to LEARN, you'll LOVE her (and you'll do well, trust me and my 98%!) If you are immature or have no real motivation, you won't. Go with an open mind and you'll see why so many students say she's the BEST! :)

Comment:

I went into this class with NO background whatsoever in class & was totally freaked out...but Jean is so clear, so enthusiastic and so helpful, it ended up being my best class (98% on the midterm, 97% on the final). Her door was often open and she was always willing to help. She makes class fun, so go, and you'll do fine!

Although no text book was used, printable handouts were available. Prof made the lectures interesting to listen to and knew the topic very well. She was willing to give extra help as she wanted her class to do well.

Excellent teacher! Very helpful, although at times talks very quickly. Great term, would definately recommend taking one of her classes.
