average class, took this as an elective what a mistake. Has a lab and a reasearch project. But if you do need this as a core class, it sure beats some of mine

Her accent can be hard to understand at first but she knows her stuff. She is very approachable and really wants her students to well. Her exams are fair and if you have been keeping up in the text you will have no problems getting high marks

She really cares about her students and writes exams fairly. She is really enthusiastic about teaching. She can be hard to understand at first with her accent; however, once you catch on it's easier. I can't wait to take another class with her.

Comment:

Hard to understand at first until you can understand her accent. She goes off topic alot at the beginning of class and is very speedy through her powerpoints, reccommended to print off lecture material. Laid back and wants the best for her students.

Comment:

A fine professor, who is very organized and loves to teach. The accent is a bit of a challenge at first but she goes the extra mile to help her students. The class is not a pushover but if you do your work and review the notes you will do well. One of the best profs on campus. Highly recommended.

Comment:

She is sometimes difficult to understand, but she tries really hard. She lets you know if the area that she is teaching at that day is not her strong point. She is a strong woman, so don't cross her. Very polite and very cute!

excellent prof, easy to understand, but you have to listen carefully. Really tries to ensure that every student does well. If you work through the practice questions for exams, you will ace the tests!

One of the best teachers i've had so far. Sometimes hard to understand, but she's very nice. And you can't miss out on the "okay, thank you, goodbye" at the end of every class.

Hard to understand but SUPER nice. The exam was a lot harder than I thought it would be, she included a lot of stuff from class discussions just to see who was coming and who was just getting the notes off the internet.
