Comment:

It is widely known in the CTE dept that Dr. Williams is highly biased against FCS majors. She will call you out on your grades in front of others and has little respect for scholastic privacy. I did not learn much at all in her course and instructions were always very confusing. Don't bother asking for clarification because she will just get angry.

Comment:

Professor Williams is an impossible teacher. She assigned a test over something that we never learned and then got mad when all of us got F's. Then proceeded to go over the information in the NEXT class period. I did not understand a concept and simply asked a question and she talked to me like I was so stupid. AVOID THIS TEACHER FOR YOUR SANITY.

Comment:

I have never been treated or spoken to by a professor in such a way. I was called mentally incapable, because I asked a simple question. The rubric and course schedules dates did not line up, and I simply e-mailed to clarify the due date. Avoid this woman like the plague!! I'd rather get the plague than take a course with her ever again!

Nearly impossible to get any info from her, which sucks because her clarity of what we actually needed to do was terrible.

Comment:

This is my first online class at the University of Central Missouri. Dr. Williams had a lot of assignments due each week but they were relatively easy to get through. Although she is very receptive to questions, the way she responds to them isn't the best. I found I had to ask others for help because she didn't explain clearly enough.

She is an awful teacher. homework did not correlate to the text used, which was terrible, btw. She did not answer questions, made you feel stupid. Homework not graded according to her rubric at all. work was not relevant nor did she care to make it relevant. homework was WAY too much for a 2 hour class. all about Marketing, when i teach Health OCC

Comment:

Cons - not very organized which made it difficult to know what would be due and when. Pros - she did an excellent job providing feedback and in a timely manner. If you participate and study/learn the material, you will gain a lot from her course and have no problem earning an A.

Comment:

Teacher is sort of hard and expects you to really learn. She won't just tell you the answer and will answer questions with a question back to you and makes you figure it out. I didn't like her at first, and thought she was tough on some people because she doesn't have patience for a lot of excuses. In the end though, I learned a lot.

The worst teacher I have ever exprienced. She expects the students to teach her the information. She is the most useless teacher I have ever encountered. If she is the only one teaching wait another semester. I promise you it is worth it.

The worst teacher i have ever had in my life. She is absolutely terrible. She doesn't vocalize what she wants you to do and she is the biggest idiot I have ever had the pleasure attending class with. What a moron!

Comment:

At first did not like her at all, thought she didnt know what she was doing and graded hard. As the semester went I began to learn how she graded and what she looks for and the grade improved a lot. Class was 3 hours once a week so a lot of work. A writing assignment a week plus GRMs. Exams were somewhat difficult. Learned a lot from it though!

If you are willing to work in her class she is an easy teacher. If you do not do your work, well good luck.

Comment:

This class was extremly hard for only 2 credits. I worked my ass off all year long and I still got a C. I did more homework for BE&O then any other class combined. She is not clear with any of her instructions and believes that we know what she is talking about when inturn were taking the damn class becasue we dont know anything.

Comment:

I did not like her as a teacher because her teaching style was bad. I hated that every test was on the computer and you only got three chances to pick the right answer on the program. Sometimes if you accidentally bumped the mouse it would mark your work wrong. I hated her I would not ever recommend her to anyone.

Comment:

Assigns modules but tests on completely different ones. We explained this to her and she blamed the computer program. She hand-picks the modules! I worked harder on this 2 credit class that I did on any other class I've taken. She doesnt teach, she yaps about politics or sports instead. Hated class

I really didn't like her as a teacher. She tried to humor the class, which didn't work. She asks a lot of questions while she talks and she talks too long. I would suggest taking a different teacher!!!

Comment:

No matter how hard you work, you will not get an A in that class. All of the work you do in that class revolves around english and grammar usage. Its like elementary all over again. She grades picky and doesn't give very much leeway. She loves business education majors and tends to favor them.

Class is unbelievable, she is very hard and is not very helpful! There is way to much information to know espically for a General Education requirement. She has no reasoning behind her grading of projects.

She was awful. The class itself wasn't too hard but the way it was taught was stupid. The class was in a computer lab but we never got to do any of our work in there.
