she was a good prof, but she was very hard one. she used to explain the materials to specific group of students. only the smart ones and she used to ignore the rest. she used to go over the material very fast.

Comment:

She is a very energetic teacher. You definitely should attempt to get into her class. She has a lot of information and will always be friendly. However, her tests are rather difficult in that a lot of the information isn't exactly centered in on during lectures. However, she still does a great job.

The best Prof at Calvin bar none. She is so helpful! Her class is challenging, but she does a really good job of explaining it. Also if you don't understand she will literally takek like 4hrs out of her day to help you. If she taught every class we'd all be 4.0 students!

The best prof at Calvin! She is very devoted to teaching and to God and sets a great example for all of us! Her lectures are interesting, she tries to make it fun, along with great devotions. Her tests and quizzes are pretty easy as long that you pay attention and study. I recomend taking her-if you do its a privledge!
