Comment:
She is a terrible teacher. Her attention span is very short and her power points are useless. Gave us one equation and expected us to solve a 10 pg problem without any guidance. Forced the TA to not help any students in tutorial. Even the poor TA was clueless about her instructions. Sadly you have to deal with her if taking this class. Good Luck!!

Jumbled slides, no logical flow. Exam questions come from FAR outfield. Don't take the class unless you have to.

Sometimes gets lost in her own world of Geochemistry -- Assignments Vague and definitely not helpful with learning course material -- Frustrating at times -- Not managed properly with tutorial sessions

Comment:
Tasks assigned daily before material is covered, unorganized, bad notes, makes you pay her for photocopied handouts that mean nothing when you look back on them, ended up with a good mark by studying harder than I ever have in my life

Completely incomprehensible notes. No textbook. Assignments due before you even learn about the subject. The most absurd exam in the history of geology. Her sweet outside hides the monster within!

By far the worst prof I've ever had. Her lectures were completely unorganized and the tests poorly reflected course material. She will not reason with a class full of upset students.

Comment:
These lectures were the most haphazard, random, rambling, unrelated, utterly incomprehensible bunch of facts ever barfed onto an overhead. There is no textbook. The exams are brutal, and I think I was bell-curved up by about 50%.
