Comment:

All she talked about was politics. If you agree with her point of view you receive a high grade. If you don't, you get a low grade on assignments. Actually spoke with the Dean about her pressing her political point of view on students. She does not listen to anything that she does not agree with. If you are a liberal, take her class.

Comment:

Easy A. Just come to class. Extreme curving on the tests. People who get the low grades from her are the people who skip class. I never opened the book all semester and got a very high A.

She never talked about anything to do with class topic, just about current events. that would have been fine but the only test we took was on things she had never even talked about.

Comment:

Aks is awesome. If you don't understand something she is more than willing to spend an hour explaining it to you. She has a true understanding of the subject and a genuine respect for her students. Stop after class and say hi. She just wants to get to know people.

Comment:

Where do I begin. She is a nice lady. Very nice. But THE most unorganized person on the planet. I dont know if its just this semester, but I am about ready to pully my hair out each class. She teaches her class from web pages. Cant stand that. But she's nice..... Be careful!!

Very helpful--if you ask for it. I wouldn't mind the politics if she didn't force her extreme liberal views on us.

Comment:

She talked a lot about Politics, it was terrible. She also repeated herself a lot and went over material so slow that it was really boring. She did know what she was talking about, but didn't know how to write exams.

She is a horrible teacher, all she does is read from the NYTimes and thats it. Then she wonders why no one does good on her exams.

Did not enjoy her teaching style...we spent more time on politics than psychology...she also was not a very fair exam maker...
