Comment:

i had her last year for socialogy and yeah it sucked. all she did for an hour and a half was lecture, she didnt tell us what was important or what wasnt. she hardly ever wrote anything down, we just had to scribble down what we thought was important. also, everyone bought a book and we never used it once. she didnt really even teach out of it

Very nice lady. Class was a little intimidating at first. Easy Papers. She is very helpful when you need it. Study and you will do fine. You can't be lazy and do well, but like I said if you try you will do fine. Sad she retired.

HORRIBLE! A class that I normally would have been very interested in but she ruined it for me. She didnt teach us stuff and then had it on a test and SWORE she taught it to us. Very rude, didnt think about the students at all

Comment:

This lady is a total psycho, she should move to mexico since she thinks it is so interesting. She is a really hard grader and her expectations are way too high. She also thinks she can speak spanish, but half of the time she is saying the wrong things.

This class was alright. She really knows her stuff but she can be very opinionated at times and sort of rude. I would not recommend this teacher.

I like her. She tried to explain the materials. I actually learned many things. Her test is a little bit hard. You will be Ok as long as you study.

Comment:

i don't see why people don't like her, a lot of people in my class were falling asleep and getting lousy test scores but they didn't even open the book or pay attention to her lectures and then blamed it on her! If you ACTUALLY LISTEN to the woman and think (god forbid) you'll have no problem at all

Unclear at times and very hard to take notes from. When I questioned her she grilled me and wasn't helpful at all. She also brings the meaning of strange to a new level.

Comment:

VERY unclear. On her writing assignments, the highest grade in the class was a 6 out of 10. A SIX out of TEN. Everyone had odd comments on the paper that weren't even close to being similar. She told one girl to reread this essay that wasn't relevant.

Very Nice lady. Most of her lecture discussion is stories from her past experience's, Tests are sort of hard, but with ample study time you can pass them. Overall a nice person. Funny little quirks about her, she humms alot of weird tunes, and sounds

Comment:

Sometimes boring in lecture, but her tests are easy if you study. Her papers she assigns are also easy A's. Not too hard of a class if you can get past the boring lectures.
