Kind and easy grader, but she was waaay too unorganized for me. I need structure to get ready for my career, not chaos.

Very kind, easy going, and easy grading. While getting a bit overwhelmed at times, she is very knowledgable about what she teaches and is a bit of an interesting person to talk to from time to time.

Comment:

Professor Murphy is both a smart and kind woman. She gives extra credit assignments. However, her negative reviews are all correct. Her classes are lecture heavy, but are hard to follow, for both her notes and her thoughts are scrambled. She does not use online grading, so it is hard to know what you will have for grades. She gives few grades out,

Comment:

Professor Murphy is an amazing teacher. Though she may not be clear when it comes to describing something in particular and goes off topic sometimes, she does explain what we are going over in the course and does expect you to do the work to pass. Make sure you listen and take notes, use the study guides she prepares, and read each chapter.

Lectures are unstructured and hard to follow. Often late. Freaks out if your phone is in her sight, in use or not.

This class was brutal. Horrible teacher. Yes she is bright, but she is completely scattered and it very hard to get through to her. I would not recommend a class with her.

She's a nice woman, but are we talking about the same prof? Random facts, random notes, random handouts made it hard for me to take this class. I taught me more than she did.
