Comment:

Difficult class and difficult professor. Strict and firm with her teaching, but gives very detailed explanations, enough to get one headache after another. Lots of reading and basically, going to need some good study habits and a friend or two to get the 4.0

Comment:

Wainwright is a difficult teacher..no doubt about that. But she is fair and will help you but only if you demonstrate a willingness to help yourself first. She's an attorney and teaches like a law professor would. That suits my style...so maybe that's why i liked the class and did well. She's not for everyone..and neither is business law.

Terrible teacher! I have never had a teacher tell the class that if we didn't understand the material by now, then it was beyond her teaching ability and now our own problem....

Comment:

Yes this teacher is very complicated and hard. The best advice is to do all the homework, go to class, and attend tutoring, its also extra credit but she doesnt mention it. I failed all of her tests but ended up with a 3.5!

Comment:

This professors style of teaching is very similar to that of law school professors. Its called hiding the ball and it stresses you to look for only the important information being presented. Read the assigned text, do the extra credit, use the book as a reference, figure out why you are missing quiz questions and you will do well in this class.

Comment:

She is so confusing. You can never tell what she's trying to say. She's a man-bashing b-word, and even though I make it a point to never hate anyone, I may have found a reason to change here.

Comment:

Yes this is a difficult class but this is college so get used to it. The majority of these negative comments are from people who failed and are blaming her rather than themselves. Just read the book, pay attention to lecture, and study. Also, a RULE is not a difficult concept to understand.

She doesn't know how to teach. She knows her stuff, but when you ask a question she leaves you just as confused or worse...

Comment:

This was my 3rd time taking nancys class, you would think after the 3rd time you get a grasp of what is going on, you will feel confident when you take the exam, but end up doing bad. She is a horrible teacher and contradicts everything she says, I dropped the class and will be taking it at a CC in spokane, DO NOT TAKE THIS TEACHER, SAVE YOUR MONEY

Comment:

Yeah, it's a hard class. Her group assignments (in class - not hard) make absolutely no sense. That being said, I managed to get a 4.0 out of the class. If you put time into studying for tests and figure out a way to understand what she wants on group work you'll be fine. It wasn't fun, but I've had far worse profs than her.

Nancy made learning very hard. It was the most disappointing class that I have taken to date. I do not feel that I learned anything of any useful value. I spent most of my time frustrated and confused.

Comment:

The limitations of a 350 character review which will not allow profanity become painfully clear after having endured this class. In the world of Wainwright, students are brain dead obstacles she must overcome for a paycheck, while she fails to exhibit proper understanding of an overhead projector. If you didn't hate life, you will after this class.

Comment:

Very bad professor, grades are based upon how hard you tried. I did well on all of the tests and pretty well on the homework. I am a 4.0 student but seemed to get a 2.0 in her class which was totally bogus. Grade was contested and I would absolutely not reccommend her to anyone ever.

Comment:

She actually told me once that it's not her problem if people in the class don't understand. She said she has to cover all the material and doesn't care if the class can't keep up. I hate that women. So does every person I've talked to. Avoid at all costs.

Comment:

ACCOUTING Majors who need an elective take ACCT 358 instead. You are much better off spending tuition money on CPA Review material. S She will confuse you even more than you were prior to asking. Take her only if you want a bad grade. But for the sake of the CPA exam, you are better off studying on you own. Coming to class- waste of time. Selfstudy

Comment:

Attention Accounting Majors. DO NOT TAKE CLASS FROM THIS TEACHER. She is absolutely useless in all respects. Very disorganized. Very unclear about her grading (actually keeps grades secret). Provides no timely feedback. Has student to pick question fro quizzes which a lot of times do not relate at all to material discussed in class. Take ACCT 358.

Comment:

Horrible prof. She is the most confusing person I have ever met. She will say one thing then she will say something different. Hardly ever did she agree with the book (even though she spent 30 mins talking about how good it is??). She does not and will not clarify anything you ask her for. Only advice is to study hard and do well on group work

Comment:

She's awful. If you try to ask a question she interrupts to tell you you're wrong. She begins sentences but changes topic in the middle without finishing her original thought. Her test are ridiculous, with more than 1 right answer (she admits this) but only 1 that she'll give credit for. For your sake, please, go to SCC or SFCC. (I did pass.)
