AVOID AT ALL COSTS !!! Her lectures are terrible and you won't understand anything. She is knowledgeable in statistics but has zero teaching skills whatsoever. I regret not dropping the class when i had the chance, had no choice but to take outside tutoring to manage a decent grade.

She's not has bad as people make her seem. She is rude and her accent is annoying, but her exams and quizzes are fair and she was very generous in the case analysis grading. It is not an easy class so do a loooot of exercices and GO TO CLASS as it is math based. You'll be fine.

Comment:
Do not take this teacher. She is rude and will not answer student questions. She is of no help and doesn't explain anything properly. I end up skipping class so that I can study from the book on my own because she is that horrible. NEVER CHOOSE THIS TEACHER. BETTER TO TAKE ONLINE IF ALL THE GOOD TEACHERS ARE TAKEN!!!

The absolute worst teacher I've taken so far. You can study all the notes possible but the final and midterm will be nothing like what you studied. The final this semester was literally based on 4 chapters but yet it was supposed to be cumulative.. I DONT recommend her. She's also a hard grader so beware. AVOID AT ALL COST

She gives tough exams and quizzes, goes through lectures quickly and if you try raising your hand to ask a question she'll ignore you.

Never take this teacher ! We don't understand a thing she says, makes a lot of mistakes and do not give any feedback. She just doesn't care about you or your success !

Comment:
Really not clear in explanations and she keeps making calculation mistakes which confuse the class. Doesn't structure the class in a simple way and is constantly skipping through slides. The subject is difficult and you do need to understand it correctly (the book isn't phenomenal), had to take other means to learn it adequately.

Please, do yourself a favor and change teacher. Even if it means taking it another semester. 2:30 of monotone talking, heavy accent, rude to students at times. Class is left with 20% attendance by the end of the semester. It feels like she is talking to herself, students are not involved.

This prof is arguably the worst I've had at JMSB. Her lectures are unclear and boring. My advice would be to put this course in your schedule and just skip it. Use either SOS or tutorials to learn the material. Beware: she takes her quizzes from other universities and they learn something JMSB does not called c-row. It will be on a quiz

The best teacher ever if your goal is to fail. If you spend 1500 dollars to go to school and get an education your lucky if you learn anything from this professor. Good luck you'll need it to basically JUST pass

Avoid this teacher at all cost. She has no respect towards students. She doesn't take time to answer questions. She doesn't really care if the students undertand or not. Her assignments are hard to understand, she doesn't know how to write in english. Her voice tone is annoying

She isn't as bad as people make out. Honestly you should read the book, helps out a lot! Read the chapter before you go into class and do the practice problems before too. Do as much practice as you can! She does a lot of examples in class from past finals which helps a lot! Midterm was easy. Final has mc questions that you cant really prepare for!

Basically, the worst teacher I've ever had. Easy course if you are willing to read and do the exercises on your own. Do not count on her to explain. If ever you still have the option to change section , DO IT, even if it doesn't suit your schedule ! Gets frustrated when you take notes on your laptop. Tells you you'll fail on the first class.

Comment:
for the first half of the class (probability)her explanations were very poor and confusing and she didn't answer questions. after the midterm for some reason her explanations were a lot more clear and she actually taught pretty well. my advice is to read the chapters before going to class (textbook is well written) and do problems and youll do well
