Very nice lady, but the class is confusing. She constantly uses Ulearn but it's unorganized. She is understanding and gives clarity if asked. She does give a lot of homework at once, so stay on top and go to class!!!

She's very confusing for most of the term I had no idea whats going on. When I asked her when things were do she would tell me she didn't know. However, lets you turn in late assignments and is an extremely easy grader.

She's confusing and drags things on and on. She also gets off topic very fast. Doesn't explain things clearly either.

Comment:

All I can remember from the class is hundreds of hours sitting at the library trying to finish all the homework. She gives a lot of homework! But she is very good grader, gives you the ability to improve you grade after revising. So that was an A+, but I had to work for it.

Comment:

She was a great professor who really wanted to see her students do well. If you go to every class and keep up on your announcements there is no reason you should do poorly. Whenever I did not understand something Professor Iacobbo made sure she cleared it up ASAP so I could complete it properly. You pick your own topics that interest you also

Comment:

Professor Iacobbo is a teacher. gets her lectures across for anyone to understand. She books labs to work on papers. gives great feedback. The only way you would do bad in this class was if you were a slacker. This class is NOT hard. I would HIGHLY recommend her. If you cant get at least an A, you don't belong in college. =)

Professor Iacobbo's course was one of the best I have taken at JWU. She was challenging and at the same time extremely helpful - I found myself enjoying the assignments and English! I left the class with skills I still use today! Got a lot for my money!!

Comment:

She is a nice person but really can't teach. I sit in class wondering what the point is. She is unorganized and lost 3 of my papers. The class never knows where it is supposed to meet or when things are due. In short it is annoying and useless class.

She likes to talk a lot so it is fairly easy to fall asleep especially when you have the 710 am class. You have to ask a lot of questions to make sure you know what is due and when.

This class was soooo boring, all she does is sit and talk to herself, it is impossible to stay concentrated. I would not recommend taking it with her.
