Comment:
A very sweet woman...She does not, however, prepare you for proficiency. I had her for Piano II and I felt like I learned nothing. I took Dr Hayes for Piano III and thank goodness for that, she was able to get me up to speed. AVOID RIPPY AT ALL COSTS.

She is a really sweet woman, the class is easy especially if you've played piano before. just go practice before hand and go to class, the time goes by really quickly.

All you really need to do is practice for her class. I only practiced for her piano I and II classes before daily grades and exams. I came out with an A- without really trying. I never had to deal with her crappy attendance policy because I always showed up. She definitely babies you but I rather have her baby me and get an A than a lower grade..

Good teacher, classes are challenging and demand lots of practice. Class is fun. other teachers are possibly better, but that depends on your learning style and other individual preferance.

Comment:
DO NOT TAKE HER CLASSES IF YOU CAN AVOID IT. Her attendance policy can lower the grade of an A+ student to less than zero. I am really not kidding. Her attendance policy takes 5 points from your FINAL grade for each unexcused absence past 2. Don't take a class where you receive a 100-point grade on 200+ points of grading. Your GPA will hate it

took a class trip AND missed class for horrible weather, they counted toward absenses. i could play better than half the class, but she wouldn't reason with me on absenses, i ended up making a d+! insane. thanks for ruining my GPA!

Comment:
The lady herself is a very nice woman, but as a teacher, no so good. I would recommend Anderson over her for Piano, she was very unhelpful, and was not willing to level with me. If you are a dedicated Piano wannabe, then go for it, but don't get too comfy with this lady!

Mrs. Rippy's class was pretty easy most of the time. It might not be the best class if you really want to improve at piano, but she is friendly and takes things at a slow pace.
