Comment:

CS2 is an easy course, her tests are pretty hard though. I sat in the back for half the year and just assumed she was hot until I saw her up close. So funny to listen to her lecture. Id say shes one of the better cs teachers though.

Comment:

She's a so-so teacher but the thing that really puts her on top of the list is her accent. She says "thingy" and a slew of other non-scientific terms in very amusing ways, kept me coming to class even though I didn't need to.

She doesn't really make lectures that interesting and the exams count for a good deal of the final grade. Her policies are pretty fair, though.

Comment:

Horrible at lecturing. Says 'ok?' every two seconds instead of 'um', and does not wait for any response. Once counted well over 200 ok's in 50 minutes. Talks low and has a thick accent. Tests are much harder than needed.

She doesn't talk real loud and she likes to talk about topics a lot longer than she needs to. Her tests are really too hard, lots of homework too.

Her accent makes her hard to understand and she doesn't speak loud enough to hear from 2/3 back in the room.
