Comment:

This class was a piece of cake. She is certainly NOT as bad as pervious posts indicate and i think a lot of high rated professors on here are hard. i took her telecourse class. pretty much know about the topics on the study guide and you're golden, its spoon fed to you. SO EASY.

Easy class. She applys the text book to real life. The only time you use the book is for the test.

Nice lady. Classes were not so fun and tests were hard because she didn;t go over anything relevant in class. Grades easily on papers.

Comment:

It was an easy class, but I felt like when she lectured us it was never helpful and she always sounded like she was yelling and mad at us. The test were hard because she did not lecture about what was on them, but we wrote a lot of papers and she graded very easy. I got a 100% on all of them and did not spend very much time on them.

I found her unorganized and unhelpful. She went over the same material multiple times and often tested on topics never even discussed in class. Test averages for the class were low because of it.

Comment:

I liked the class, it met every 4 weeks, we took a test over 4 chpts at a time. Only had 4 class sessions. Therefore attendance is mandatory. If you don't like those type of courses don't take this one, but I liked it

Comment:

She told us we had to bring a pop culture item to class the next time. So we all did and then after the first person got up and talked about her cell phone she says "okay no one else can use that". It would have been smart to maybe tell us that only one person can do each thing before day. How were we supposed to know that. All I had was my cell

Comment:

She told us in one of the classes not to worry about anything she says in class b/c none of it would be on the tests. Now what's the point going to class then? All we did was talk about her family. I felt like I was wasting my life going to class. Take from her if you like teaching yourself everything.

Comment:

She was real easy if you want a B or luckily pull off an A.She was worse than boring, I know more about her own issues & family than I ever wanted. She likes to hear herself talk, which has NOTHING to do with the course, book, practical life (unless you are 65 yr old insane lady) or Sociology. Tests were hard cause we never even opened it in class.

Comment:

no point in going to class except for once or twice when she decides to take attendance that is worth very little. Horrible teacher, NEVER discussed what was in the book and on the test. When she gives reviews for the tests, she gives about 50-75 words and wants you to know everything about them. TERRIBLE,awful teacher, DO NOT take any class from h

This class was so boring. If I went, I would always leave early. She NEVER lectures about the book rather about personal experiences and random crap. Honestly the easiest class to pass without going on a regular basis.

Comment:

Springs assignments on you. Does NOT answer emails in a timely manner. Tests are actually pretty difficult if you don't have alot of time to study. On a lighter note- engaging conversations in class. Others think she's boring, but I loved hearing her talk. She's nice on this level.

Worst professor I have ever had. Do NOT take classes from this woman. She is awful. She may as well not have a syllabus as it was not helpful or relevant at all.

Comment:

She assigns these bogus assignments that are pointless, and then she makes them due all in the same week! Only take her if you HAVE to. If you do take her, get used to homework that she will spring up on you.She added alot of stress and anxiety to my schedule.
