Comment:

She's a very nice professor, and always willing to help her students. But her exams are hard and her voice is very soft, so very easy to lose your attention. Its not an easy A, you have to study a lot from the textbook.

Linda's a really awesome instructor. She knows her subject well, her lectures are clear and to the point, and she has a sense of humor. She made labs very comfortable. I always felt like she appreciated people individually and wanted them to do well, too. It's not easy to get an A in her class, but very possible if you put in some work.

VERY nice lady. not intimidating, helpful, easy projects. Problem: she speaks ultra fast, expects you understand everything, and is unclear. hard to follow her lecture - its all powerpoint.
