Great prof! Very responsive over email and gives clear explanations if you ask questions. In lecture, she sometimes assumes that students understand and can go over slides too quickly/a bit unclear. But most of the time not bad!

Comment:

The worst prof in the course. Her notes are terrible, she uses so many acronyms in them that she doesn't define in the notes, so if you miss something in class and are studying later, you're going to be so confused. Explanations are unclear, and she treats you like a child. ONLY good thing about her is that she is prompt with email replies.

Comment:

Awful! She thinks she knows so much, but she doesn't! Soooo unclear that it's ridiculous; contradicts herself all the time. Looking back, she was the worst prof in the entire course! Watch out!

If you take the time to get to know this woman you will find a lady with an amazing sense of humour and she is extremely kind caring and giving. I am a very independent woman and she had no problems with that. Be respectful and you will get it in return

Comment:

I like her pre-copied notes. She moves at an appropriate pace. If you think Sally is bad, then you probably weren't around when Alison Buchan was teaching PHYL. Totally SUCKS and doesn't care about teaching. Irresponsible. Glad she's gone.
