Comment:

She is very difficult to understand and is hard to approach. She rushes quickly and I have had to go to the math tutoring lab in Brighton Hall to help clarify exactly what she is asking for. She is pretty unclear. I would suggest going to the math tutoring or taking someone else.

Horrible professor! She does not care to help her students at all. She is very boring and has a very strong accent which makes it hard to pay attention

Worst teacher I have ever had. I was in the distance class and could barely hear her very well on the video streaming. Tests are nothing like the homework because homework is online and tests are written by her. Don't take this class if you want to actually succeed in learning Stats.

Worst professor I have ever taken!!! Do not take her if you do not want to fail. Hw was 10%, 3 midterms were 50%, and final was 40%! Based on this grading, there is no way for you to make up for your grade if you want an A. Prof doesnt know how to teach. All she does every class is give you examples and that's how she teaches.

Hardest class and my first F. She only gives example and doesn't go into detail of what or how to get the answer. There's soooo many thing I can list, but it would be too long. DON'T TAKE IT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO FAIL!!!!

Comment:

I took the inclass part. Attendance not actually mandatory, only on exam days. Accent was difficult to understand but if you follow her format you can get a good grade. Homework is online, same format as the exams so just study the homework and its guidelines! Never actually learned anything from her, just stuied the homework format! Still got A!

Comment:

Would not recommend! Can be difficult to understand, English is not 1st language, yet she writes her own tests! Important! She uses her old calculator, so she isn't a help with your TI, Casio, Etc. She wanders during lectures and will abosolutely bore you! Put you to sleep! Helpful during office hours. Repeat not recommended!

Comment:

Very hard to understand. Took the distance class which meant that attendance was not mandatory but if you are in her lecture class it counts as part of your grade. Tests weren't hard but her grading was. Marked off points for not having exactly what she wanted in explanation. you have to teach yourself from the book.

Comment:

Worst Teacher I've ever had. Couldn't understand her. Most of her examples contained faulty math. Her tests were unfair: took off a lot of points for not explaining a concept the way she would explain it. I had 10pts removed for writing majority of students instead of majority of all students. I would not recommend her to anyone.

Comment:

I DON'T RECOMMEND! VERY hard to understand... always showed up a little late. Did not answer questions students asked, or replied to them like they were stupid. Grading on tests are not very fare. Takes a lot off for small errors. I got 4% off my test for not fully writing out 1 conclusion, even though it was right. I will never take her again

Comment:

She wasn't bad. her grading was decent. Everything she lectured on was on the test. As long as you do the homework and understand the material, then you'll do well in the class. I ended up getting an A in the class!!! i don't understand why people say she's hard. She's not unless you don't attend class/watch her lectures

Comment:

I LOVED her. She does her best to make it interesting. She's super smart, hilariously funny (if you understand subtle humor and sarcasm), very fair, willing to help if you go visit her, easy to follow if you pay attention (and take notes) and doesn't put up with anything from anyone! Definitely one of the best teachers at Sac State!!!

She is brilliant but can not teach. Given a problem, she sees the solution automatically and proceed to explain how to apply the solution. I need to be convinced how to find a solution and then how to apply it.

Comment:

This teacher really sucks. You cant understand a word she says and she used every stat vocab word in the book. This is what it sounds like to sit in her class "the square root of the raw score is calculated by divided the independent variable by the binomial fuction on the right sided t-test chart" p.s test are 10x harder than the homework
