Comment:

This is my fourth and final year with her. All the reports are accurate. She has zero social skills. I dread every semester I have with her. Unfortunately Penn State Altoona doesn't seem to care. If you are an IST or SRA major you are stuck with her. I am an "A" student but she still belittled me in front of my peers. She's a miserable person.

Comment:

Probably the worst teacher I have ever had. She walks away from students when they ask questions if she doesn't feel like answering them. She talks over her students when they are asking her a question without stopping to hear anyone but herself. She is unclear about the labs, and makes students feel stupid for even asking relevant questions.

Comment:

HORRIBLE TEACHER. She hardly knows what she is teaching, when she is teaching. When you ask her a question she usually yells at you for asking it. Also will give you a study guide for the test which you think would be helpful!!! WRONG when you ask her a question about the study guide she was not able to give you the answer.

Worst professor I have ever had in my entire college career. Avoid her at all costs! Doesn't teach in class, if you ask a question she makes you feel like an idiot, doesn't know the answers to her own study guide questions.

Comment:

Terrible Instructor, just to name a few things, makes you look stupid when you ask questions, does not offer any help at all, shows up 15-20 mins late every day, and was corrected at least 3 times a day by a student. And lastly when a question is asked she is unsure of you get a ridiculous answer. Has an associates degree in business coordination.

Makes everything harder than it has to be, doesn't take the time to listen to you when you have a question. Absolutely one of the worst teachers I've ever had. DO NOT TAKE HER!!

Comment:

The material is pretty easy, yet she manages to make it very hard. When she actually successfully teaches you something, rest assured it's incorrect information. She once spent 5 minutes looking for the 'next page' button on a adobe php page. The class average on the final was 62%. Avoid this teacher.

Terrible teacher. avoid. Does not explain herself at all, goes way too fast, and speaks in a computer lingo & expects all to understand. Gets frustrated with questions so dont try asking her for help.

Comment:

Do NOT take this class with her. She hates to help you and gets extremely irritated when you ask for it. She only likes the people who don't ask questions. She goes way to fast when explaining the material, and don't bother asking her to slow down or to repeat something because she'll just make you feel like dirt. Avoid her.

Comment:

She teaches a 2 credit intro course yet her rate of going through the material is FAR too fast. If you ask her a question, or to slow down, or (god forbid) correct her she will get angry with you and become irritated. One of the worst professors (if you can even call her that) at Altoona.

Comment:

DO NOT TAKE HER....I PROMISE YOU WILL REGRET IT. NOT CLEAR ON WHAT SHE WANTS YOU TO KNOW FOR THE TEST. THE REVIEW SHEET IS ONLY OF POSSIBLE SHORT ANSWER QUESTIONS SHE MAY ASK. YOU HAVE TO KNOW ALL THE CASE STUDIES FROM THE CHAPTERS, AS WELL AS THE VOCABULARY.

Comment:

she's not the best professor, but she's not the worst. if you can get it with a better professor-do it. but if you can't, I'd stick it out. Make sure you go to all the labs and do the online quizzes. Tests are kinda hard but she lets you use 1 piece of paper with whatever you want written on it, and she gives you a pretty accurate study guide.

Comment:

I attended only two of her classes before withdrawing. She goes too fast and speaks in lingo that the everyday student taking this class won't understand. I personally will be sure to NEVER enroll in her classes because I want to do well academically.
