Comment:

Her critiques didn't give any good input,everything to her was good so it was hard to tell if your work needed any improving. It was a waste of my time I ended up cleaning up her mess and organizing her class because she doesn't know what shes talking about most of the time.

Comment:

Waste of my time and money not cheap didn't learn anything or progress artistically. Too soft spoken, half the time its like shes talking to herself the other half who knows. Takes Weeks to even create an idea. Class knew more than she did. Doesnt properly critique everything looks good to her. Wasted 2 hours uploading pictures. Doesnt listen.

Comment:

Useless. EXTREMELY passive aggressive. Didn't help me, and I felt incredibly unmotivated after her class. Dropped my grade down 2 letter grades because of one small flaw (rail wasn't as deep as she wanted) even though the rest of it was to the T. She made me hate my work, hate perspective class, and hate myself for choosing the class. AVOID HER.

Comment:

Everyone that has ranked her poorly is just immature. Her voice is annoying, I'll give them that, but when you get past that, she's great, She's genuinely excited when sees progress in her students and she is so understanding when life gets in the way of finishing pieces and lets you update them for a better grade when you have time. She's great!

Comment:

She seems to have no idea what she's talking about. She checks my work throughout class and then at the end of class she tells me it's wrong. But throughout class, she was the one checking it for accuracy

Comment:

I am irritated by other students' comments about her monotone voice. That has nothing to do with the content of her class or her ability to teach it. I have watched her devote so much attention to students who consistently walk in an hour late and don't even commit themselves to the class. She is so helpful to serious students as well as slackers!

Comment:

She's okay. She seems to know what shes talking about. She's extremely boring to listen to though. Even when I try to pay attention, I soon lose interest. She is very hippy-esque though, though I've never heard her use any terms like "groovy" or "Flower power".

Good teacher, she knows her stuff and helps out when you need it. She's a little strict on her grading though. If you put the time and effort in your work you will be fine. Don't be afraid to ask questions, she is really nice.

Comment:

Very nice and helpful teacher. Homework assignments wern't too time consuming but were fairly enjoyable. Very easy class as long as you do all the work. She does have a soft voice, so if you are hard of hearing you might want to find someone else.

Dull teacher. Subject=boring, but she doesn't help. You'll get the basics, but it's not the place to bust out great work.

This was the easiest class ever. However, her monotone voice that show no emotion could put anyone to sleep. Her assignements were easy but pointless and time consuming.

Comment:

to tell you the truth, the only thing i remember clearly from this class is being lulled to sleep every week. she is so soft-spoken that if you care to hear her, you need to sit in the front. if you don't, she'll whisper sweet lullabies until you're visited by the sandman....

Horrible Teacher!! Does NOT teach her class but rather goes off on her own not paying attention to whether or not her students are learning. For the cost of the class take a class with a REAL teacher.

Teaches you what you need to know, answers questions whenever possible. Helpful, but very monotone, its like having the class taught by a computer. No emotion. Easy class, topics are interesting, teacher is not.

Boring! She needs to raise her voice and make herself known! She gives us all these useless terminologies that aren't even necessary in class!
