Directions are unspecific. The content is not complicated, but a lack of clarity and differences between her verbal directions and the syllabus. Lost points were due to unclear directions not failure to achieve objectives.

Dr. Williams is passionate about her job. Her lectures are interesting and she provides excellent Powerpoint slides which will help with the quizzes. I have taken two of her classes and both of them were very positive experiences!

Great Prof! She is a tough with lab report grades but if you follow the rubric you can get 100%. Recommend taking her class if possible! Best Professor I have had in Movement Science at GVSU so far!

Comment:

She is a great professor. She is very practical with what she expects you to learn (no stupid stats) and it will help you in the future. She is a pretty easy grader but can be critical of the lab reports so spend more time then the night before doing those. Get her for both lab and lecture you will better if you do.

Comment:

This professor was very helpful & clear. Tests weren't hard if you studied her slides. She took info from the ACSM manual/textbook & went over the important parts. I had her for lecture & lab. She goes by the guidelines and grades fairer than the other profs for lab reports. She's on a visiting contract so get in her 320/321/420 sections if u can!

Comment:

Sherie is terrible. She laughs at her own jokes that aren't funny. She contradicts everything that she says. When she tells you to add something to your paper, she then takes points off for it. Worst professor I've EVER had. Extremely dissapointed in GVSU's choice in her.

I really like her! She's entertaining and the 3 hours that I'm in her class really fly by. The textbook chapters are short and easy to read. Not a difficult grader. I already find myself using some of the techniques taught in the class. This lady just cracks me up.

Comment:

She is a great professor. You have to attend class and do the required assignments, but they aren't too bad. Get started on management plan sections when she first introduces them and you'll be absolutely fine. Shares her own personal experiences, doesn't just repeat what the textbook said. No quizzes or tests.

Excellent class, well organized and extremely entertaining. Professor Williams is amazing, she has tons of helpful advice for teachers/students and great stories. This class gave me a framework for classroom management and my job as a teacher. Even the management plan is worth it. If you can take this class!!

Sherie is hilarious and entertaining. She made a weekend class not so horrible to attend. I learned a TON about classroom management. No tests, and the management plan isn't too difficult.

Comment:

I didn't think she was hard. If you listen to what she wants and do the work, you'll be fine. She doesn't grade tough unless you are missing a requirement. She shares a lot from her personal life (as a parent and administrator). Management plan is not that scary! It is SO WORTH IT! You'll thank her!

RUN AWAY!! The most HORRIBLE prof I'd had in the school of Ed! NOT UNDERSTANDING!!! Unable to empathize with her students. Avoid her at all costs!! Your GPA will thank you. She is pretentious and condescending towards her students.

Sherie is a wonderful prof! She's a lot of fun and makes the class interesting. The quetsion sets aren't fun, but if you are an education major, get used to it - you'll probably use them too. :)
