Comment:

Too much work. Tests are super heavy. But there's a few extra credits that may or may not boost your grade. As long as you do a good job on her assignments then you may get at least a C in the class. She's nice and willing to help you if you are having problems.

Pro. Fong is a very knowledgable and kind person. Her lecture is very well organized. 2 Quizzes, Midterm, Finale & Court Observation Paper (easy) . Weekly MindTap exercises to related chapters covered in lecture. Very easy. Her PowerPoints are great help. If you have difficulties, she is more than willing to help. 2-3 extra credit assignments.

Comment:

Took her Will and Trust class, I have to say I wish she taught other courses. Clear lectures and test are all based on powerpoints. The grade on Canvas is not your actual grade because she curves your grade (the top score would be the median grade) which helps those who get low scores. Pay attention and you will pass the class with an A.

Loved Professor Fong, she was very informative and helpful. Took her Intro to Paralegal and really enjoyed her class. You don't need the textbook her powerpoints have all the information, including what you will be tested on for the quizzes, midterm, and final. The quizzes prepare you for the midterm and final. No reason to fail.

Comment:

professor Fong is passionate about her course, and is always willing to help out if needed. however, there is a lot of work involved thanks to mind tap, and you cannot get fooled on canvas; the grade there is nowhere close to your actual grade. it only really accounts for the hw. either ways, if you don't like work don't take this class.

Comment:

Her lectures are very organized and she uses real life examples to further clarify the topics. She provides extra credit and curves the tests. She gives a bunch of hw, but she also goes over some of the answers in class. The test are based on the vocabs she gives you. The book is not really necessary to buy, but the MindTap is.

Incredibly nice professor! Her class isnt difficult if you have a genuine interest in the subject and ACTUALLY show up for class and pay attention. Her lectures are detailed and she provides powerpoints for every topic covered in class. I wish she taught more classes in the paralegal program!!

All her exams is written and there is no multiple choice. She does not give extra credit for her business law 12B students. Read the textbook and memorize the key terms. Exams are consist of vocabulary, comparison, matching, short essay answer, etc. Tons of homework is given for her class. Her lectures are mainly from the powerpoint.

Comment:

She is very knowledgeable and passionate in her teaching. She incorporates a wide variety of assignments in her curriculum. Her tests are curved based on the "average top score," not necessarily the actual top score. Her curves usually take you at least one letter grade up on exams. Very vocab centric class. Know the vocab and you'll pass

Great teacher. Lectures are average, but the material is all provided for you. There's a decent amount if homework through the online system, but not difficult. You should get an A if you study and do the homework. If you have questions she's more then willing to answer them during her office hours.

She's honestly a easy class if you take good notes and read the chapters, all her tests and quizes are graded on a curve so studying for them is an easy A which should get you a good grade in the class. Online hw but it's hard not to get full points it's pretty easy. I did learn alot about law and contracts which is good to know in the real world.

Read the book! Complete the assignments on Mindtap and Canvas. She grades with a curve. 4 quizzes and a few extra credits and a couple of in class assignments. All her lectures are what is covered in the quizzes. She helps you with the Mindtap as well. She lets you know everything that is coming up. If you study and do the work, you can get an A.

Fong is a great professor. I learned a lot about law and contract in general. She is really professional, enthusiastic about her subject, and gives extra credit. She curves grades and if you put an effort, she will give you a lot of support on the grade to make you pass the class. It was interesting to learn about laws and cases. Take her!!!

You will learn plenty in her class. The tests are really tough and she grades tough too. She is very impatient, so don't ask any questions in class. You really need to study hard and totally understand the subject to get an A. Great tip: record her lectures and listen to them at least once if you want to get an A.
