Comment:

This is the worst professor to take an online class with. She quizzes every week for a 1 credit class. Never clear on what is expected of you. She posts syllabus, quizzes and course material from her another class she teaches instead of HE14 online material . She never responds to your emails about all the issues that are her Fault

Comment:

The class was ok. She is a Gd teacher but dont just rely on her lecture notes. You must read the textbook if you want to pass her exams. She is not always clear about what to and what not to focus on for the exams. If you read the chapters done in class weekly, you should be fine. Pay attention in class. DO NOT FALL ASLEEP DURING LECTURE!

I would encourage professor Thomas to keep doing whatever she's doing. I've learned so much. You have to stay on top of your work to pass this class. Things won't always be perfect because her style of teaching is different from other professors. You put in the work and trust me, you'll get good results. Enter her class with an open mind! <3

She is a sweet person teaches well, but does not make clear what she expects from you She is not good with blackboard and if you are a community health major i suggest you be on top of your things and always go to her so she sees you working hard

Comment:

she teach epidemiology, is the inly one that teach this class, so you dont have other options to choose other teachers, her class is half meet in person and half online which she is really terrible. She is very confusing, you cant say anything because she would take it very offensive, kingsborough should have more options for the students!

Comment:

Professor Thomas may not seem like the most interesting professor at first, but she's not that bad later on through the semester. She gives a weekly quiz since this is a hybrid and writing intensive course. She is not bad, all you need to do is do a bit of studying and you will be fine. She is a very easy grader.

Comment:

She does not present her work clearly. She's disorganized. Her handouts are full of mistakes. Her syllabus is outdated. She doesn't know how to use technology like blackboard. And this course was mostly on Blackboard. My class was a disaster! Doesn't tell you what she expects & then she grades you poorly! Impossible to get an A in this class.

Comment:

THE ABSOLUTE WORST PROFESSOR I HAVE EVER HAD!!! ASSIGNED A TEST ONLINE AND IT TOOK HER 4 WEEKS TO ACTUALLY GET THE EXAM TO POST ON BLACKBOARD. WOUND UP TAKING THE MIDTERM LAST DAY OF CLASS. VERY DEMANDING. UNCLEAR. CONTRADICTS HERSELF.READS FROM POWERPOINTS THAT ARE FULL OF TYPOS. QUESTIONS ON TESTS NOT EVEN GRAMMATICALLY CORRECT, MAKES IT WORSE.

Comment:

The worst professor in my entire life that I came in contact with. She is not strict. She is unreasonably demanding: easily gives uncovered material on the tests, does not communicate her questions clearly. It is especially detrimental if you have to take test online and cannot ask for clarifications. Presents material in a very superficial form.

Comment:

Teaches health at a high school level. Incredibly disorganized. She just reads from PowerPoint slides that are riddled with typos. Hard to understand her speech. If you buy the book and memorize it word for word you'll get an easy A. I recommend you get a different professor for your required health class. No clue how she even got the job.

Comment:

This has to the worst class i took in Kingsborough, Its not the class that's hard its the way she teach. She expect you to learn the material on your on your own.One thing when one or two students having difficulty but when the whole class don't understand, I think that's when you have to evaluate yourself as professor.
