She made me change my minor. Horrible teacher and a boring class. Do yourself a favor and do not take her. Tests are somewhat hard, normal amount of work.

Comment:

Very well then. I would like to just say what I really thought of the class and your teaching style. I did not turn in many of the chapter questions because there was never any form of review or discussion on the material to supplement the reading assignments. I would spend hours a night reading the chapters and writing papers, and then we never di

Comment:

By far the worst professor I have ever had. She literally told an entire class of future teachers that we were going to be horrible teachers and that she was glad she would not have any of her own children in school while we were teachers. She offers NO help, NO extensions on due-dates, even when SHE cancels class for a whole week. Very insulting woman!

Drop her now. I did everything she asked including going to the writing center for every assignment and still got 2 out of 8 on my assignments saying, "Proofread and Rewrite." Take Comm 103 with someone else.

Comment:

She will not help u ever! She thinks everyone should know how to do everything, which is not the case. If u do the work u'll be fine, but don't bother asking her for help, just ask a classmate. If u r daring enough to ask her a ? she will make u feel stupid. She gets mad when u ask her anything and always has a stupid comeback. Do NOT take her!

Comment:

Worst teacher i have ever had.She is very unwilling to help her students. She always refers you out to somebody else in your class and even when she does help you she still finds ways to berate you while helping. She likes to berate and belittle her students for no obvoius reason. Very bitter woman that should not be teaching

Comment:

I would never recommend taking her courses. I emailed her with a question about an assignment on a Thursday. By Tuesday's class, she still hadn't replied. In that class, she, for at least half an hour, berated us (while staring at me) for how stupid we are and how we should never, under any circumstances, email her.

Comment:

Listen, if you can take the other prof. do it...no one can be worse than her. My friend did everything that was required for the first assignment and got an F. Also, there was one class when she told how horrible our writing is, and starting reading exerpts from different people's papers, and if you ask for help she talks to you like you're stupid.

Ignorant, Mean, Bitter old lady. She is a horrible teacher, who is too lazy to help her students. This class was designed to teach yourself, WITH GUIDANCE. However, she gets extremely irritated with people who need help. WORST TEACHER EVER!!!!!!!!!

it is an easy, pointless and boring class. all we learned is stuff i already learned from high school. and i don't think she really knows what she is talking about. just turn your stuff in on time and you'll pass.
