Comment:

You have no excuse to not get an A in this class. It was a one night a week class and she cancelled class seriously like half the time. Everything was easy..just show up when she actually has class, be conscience in class, and you'll be fine.

Comment:

I took her class as a night class, and there were difficulties and it got changed to an internet class. This was the only problem i had with the class. Other than that her lectures were interesting and clear. Her explanations of tests and studyguides were easy to follow. She also uses the text a lot so that is something that is important to use.

This was such an easy class. Even though it is a statistics and you may think it's hard, it's not. It was by far the easist. You can use notes on quizzes and notes on tests. Don't be afraid to take this class.

Comment:

I would recommend her as a teacher for psych...I actually have already. She's very clear with the material, explains it VERY well, and she's SO sarcastic towards immature people...it's funny. She called out people who laugh at the word "erection" in class. We're in college...they deserved it. Her sarcasm makes the class worth it.

Comment:

she is difficult to contact. It takes her awhile to respond to e mails and the syllabus doe snot even say where her office is. I agree with the previous commentator who mentioned the lack of quizzes that were handed back at the last class period. She needs to make herself more available during the school day. Also, the syllabus does not state wher

Comment:

On the day before the FINAL, she didn't even give us our quizzes back, and when I tried to contact her, her room number wasn't even online. She also has a very annoying voice and doesn't review before the quizzes, whereas the other teachers do if requested.

Comment:

She is always enthusiastic whenever she is lecturing the class and seems to teach exactly what we need to know for the exams. She is always prepared to help assist you with any questions you might have and gives you easy opportunities to make up for missed points.

Comment:

If you have to take QM for Psych, I would take her. Come on, the first half of the semester was over averages! Yeah she can be annoying and cancel class last minute, but as far at the material, she presented it very clearly. You get to use a cheat sheet on the exams, and the final was take home!

Comment:

She cancels class last minute all the time, and she isn't always prepared for class. She's annoying and scatterbrained and LOUD. Her teaching methods are tedious, but the tests and quizzes are fairly easy as long as you make sure you don't make any mistakes (you get a page front/back of notes)

Comment:

Worst teacher I've ever had. Doesn't come to class, doesn't teach, and expects you to take her impossible exams. Very unresonable, don't know how she grades since she never gives back papers. Never take this teacher unless you want to work your butt off and get a C

Comment:

Tests are harder that they should be, but she drops the lowest one. Plus they are only worth like 30% of your grade. As long as you do all of the work required, which isn't that much, you should get a B easily, and an A isn't really much harder.

Comment:

If you really want to learn, do not take the class. I don't know why she's a professor at Bradley. She is a good teacher when you personally talk to her, but she shouldn't teach the class. STAY AWAY
