Comment:

Prof Stephenson is really a fun teacher to have. The first year seminar was really fun and she made it interesting. Lots of essays but not too difficult. I would recommend this seminar and the professor even though I did not have her for physics, her main subject. I would love to have her for that class though.

Comment:

Tests are hard, must stay on top of work or you'll die in 310. Like the rest of the dept, she'll help with HW. Not a fan of the 3 pt option. I'm a fan of her teaching overall.

I was a major, took many classes with Sharon, worked with her on research, and became friends with her and her husband. Definitely one of the greatest professors I've ever had the pleasure of knowing.

Comment:

She can be nice (I think some people may be giving her too much credit due to her attractiveness). She is a poor teacher and only somewhat willing to help you. She hardly explains what's she's doing when she's working problems on the board and frequently makes mistakes. Ex) When she corrects them, she doesn't explain how to do it correctly.

Really really really cool lady, but don't let her attitude fool you--the class is still hard. However, she's always willing to go over anything with you until you get it. :-)

really nice person, easy to understand and passionate about her work. my boyfriend and all his friends have crushes on her, which is kinda annoying :)... but other than that, it's all good.

A phenomenal teacher and advisor. One of the best I've ever had. She's also somewhat insane, but that just makes her classes much more interesting.
