Comment:
Very intimidating, and always makes u feel rushed when asking her simple questions. Her teaching style is terrible, rather than concentrating on how to do a problem one way, she does it 5 different ways (barely explaining each way) leaving you confused. I ended up with an A-, but it literally took 7 hours of studying and goin to tutors twice a week

I can not believe BU hired this person. She was my TA when I attended SOM. She was a clueless, careless, aloof jerk back then. I hope she got nicer, more competent and caring in the last few years. Good luck BU SOM students.

One of the best classes I've taken so far. If you do your work, and understand all the homeworks completly, you should do fine. Her tests are a little tricky, but she gives crazy partial credit, and extra credit during the semester which really helps. At the end she reweighted exams in our favor. One of the best professors I've had.

Very smart and "fast" woman obviously. It is a class with lots of things to learn. One of the class you feel you learn the most after all the "suffering". A hard, much works and vaulable class.

Comment:
Wow she talks fast. Test always have 2 hard questions in the end. The material isnt that hard if you spend 2 hours a day on it. She doesnt really take into consideration that we only have one hand. Since she talks fast its hard to copy fast even with outlines. So you miss work then snowball eft

Comment:
Horrible teacher, holds grudges, has her class favorites. She talks way to fast, doesn't explain things well, confuses herself in class. She hates classes in the afternoon and makes the students pay for it. Preparation for class is very poor.

The class is really hard in nature but Naples is great, she goes out of her way to make sure you understand the material and after you suffered through the class, you are really glad you did because she teaches you things you NEED to know.

She teaches way way too fast!!! Most people don't have enough time to finish the exam... Do all the problems in the book, and learn to use your calculator.
