Comment:

She was always available to help, remarkable at responding to emails, fast marker. If I saw her in the hallways she stopped to see how I was doing and how classes were. Econ is a drab subject, and she did her best to brighten it up. Love her, would take her class again

Comment:

Wendy is a good professor. I had her for Econ 111, and you always know what to expect with her class. She has class notes derived from the textbook, however has her own twist on them and tries to explain the concepts as best as possible. I had no trouble understanding her. She responds to questions/emails quick. Very caring, and test isn't too hard

Wendy is a good prof. She was very good at explaining herself and hints at whats on the test by emphazing or repeating herself. The best economics prof I have had.

I really enjoyed Wendy's Econ 111 class. I found she illustrated all the concepts well and has a kind personality. Sometimes I did find myself struggling to pay attention toward the end. However, Her lecture notes were very clear and helpful.

Comment:

"Um, ahh" is a common phrase you'll hear Wendy say if you take any of her class. She basically just reads from the textbook, so if you can dedicate the time to read the textbook yourself, and do all the online quizzes, you can do pretty decent in her class.

Comment:

Wendy Doell was a pretty good Prof. I can honestly say I didn't enjoy the material of the course but Wendy tried her best to help you understand, even though the textbook was more clear than she was. Be prepared for chapter quizzes! The only good thing about the quizzes is that she takes questions directly from those for the midterms and final!

Wendy is one of my favourite professors! Her exams are predictable and she takes all her questions from the textbook bank. Her final had tons of questions that were from the online quizzes that are worth 10%. Read the textbook and do her quizzes and you'll do fine.

Comment:

Right, okay, so let's say you need to take an economics class. Don't take it from Wendy. Going to her lectures are so pointless. She can't teach a slide without jumping back to 50 different ones just to get a point across. Better off to read the textbook.

Comment:

Thick accent. For her assignments for each chapter, you get 5 times per chapter and she takes your highest score which I think is good. If you go to class and try to pay attention and read the textbook and do the assignments, you will pass.

Just a little below average. She has a pretty good personality, but sometimes it can be tough to understand her over her accent.

Comment:

Her lectures are very very very boring and she has a very heavy accent. She repeats herself all the time and it is very hard to stay focused and follow her slides. Also her slides are pretty much from the textbook

Comment:

She is the most annoying teacher I've ever had. Constantly saying "right" or "okay". I counted once and she said okay 28 times in 10 minutes. Wendy also seems unsure of some concepts and often gives poor examples.

Comment:

Took Econ 114 as an independent class, so no lectures to attend. Assignments required you to read the textbook to do well. Wendy marked assignments and returned them very quickly with good feedback. The questions on the exam come from the textbook bank, so use the textbook publisher's online quizzes and the assignments to study and you'll do well.

Comment:

I found both her Econ 111 and Econ 114 class to be pretty difficult. I struggled to keep motivated during lectures. Her online quizzes, midterms and final are all made up of multiple choice questions; which gives students who struggle with multiple choice testing a big disadvantage. I personally would avoid taking any of her classes again.

She tries her best to make the class interesting but it doesn't really help. Expect two midterms, a final, and online assignment. Just read the textbook and you'll do fine.
