She's good. I like her. Very friendly, easy to talk to. I did like listening to her lectures. She knows the law on Civil Procedure pretty well. She was always happy to speak and answer my questions. I love her.

Best prof I've had. D'Isa knows her stuff and makes the material interesting. She engages the class and moves on when someone doesn't get it... She doesn't put anyone on the spot. I don't have my grade yet, but it doesn't matter because I learned a lot and enjoyed the class!

Comment:

Kinda the worst prof I've had at Cooley so far, but only b/c she got sick early in the term, missed many classes, and then dropped out in week 10. She did make it easy for us by giving a table of stuff we'd need to know for the exam and she actually teaches civ pro is a easy and non-complicated way. Better than the other profs. she's a toss-up

One of the best Coolley has to offer! She's simplified the maze of dried procedural rules. Her lectures are easy to listen and to understand (try not to space out and you'll do great). Her exam was not difficult and not easy - doable. Great teacher! Thanks.

She's not bad at all. Taking notes by hand forces you to pay more attention-I found it helpful in my learning. Funny prof and uber-sexy woman. Will meet with you and answers e-mails all the time. Pretty clear in her explanations although she tends to digress a bit.Even if you don't like Civ Pro, you should go to class just to look at her. Cool lady

I enjoyed the class and especially her style of teaching. She is always ready to help. Answers emails immediately. I will be glad to have this professor for Civ Pro 2.

You can't record the lecture or take notes on a laptop, erratic and all over the place. SUCKS, she even admitted to being one of the few that didn't allow laptops and hasn't figured out why everyone does. Get with it lady.

sometimes hard to follow in class, but she is always willing to set up a meeting and spends all the time you need meeting in her office going over things. Really wants students to understand the material.

are you kidding? she is nice, knows everything about the subject, but cannot explain it in a manner that enables learning. her exam was the stupidest thing i have ever seen. 80% of it was on stuff we covered in passing! or in review..went like this..oh wait, i almost forgot...joinder!! crazy!

Comment:

not a huge fan. she is highly disorganized. i felt like the class, in general, was the easiest i have taken in law school and i knew everything cold for the exam. i don't know but i feel like she's arbitrary. not lots of points between grades. i liked macdonald's teaching style way better. nice person. not my fave prof

i had her for civ pro 1 and civ pro 2 - shes actually a GREAT professor - teaches the material well and if you're confused she is always willing to help out. Its never a given with what she'll test on - most kids like to know of professor patterns from past exams, but thats BS - just know all the topics and you'll be fine! also a fair grader!!

Comment:

Be very cautious. She's a nice lady and try's to help as much as possible, problem is that her final is the perfect example of a box of chocolates. Just go in as prepared as possible and if something rings a bell, outline dump in regards to whatever issue you think you're seeing. I thought I failed, but somehow managed an A-.
