Comment:

She's very knowledgable and very sweet.Her Tests are easy as long as you study properly and she gives you a sheet prior of terms to study before the test.She is very fair and she dropped the lowest test score. If you are a fairly lazy student,it might be a struggle but if you put in the reasonable effort you'll be fine.She is not extreme.

not a great teacher . I took her for CIS 13 online and she was never available. She is also easily irritated and very blunt. Take someone else if you can.

Comment:

She's easily irritated and will tell it to your face. Every time you probably will want to ask a question she gives a answer that doesn't make any sense + she goes on and on and on like an energizer bunny and doesn't know when to stop talking

Comment:

Very strict on attendance and tardies. She will lock you out! Otherwise easy, just sit in lecture and go through the lab book. Tests are pretty easy as long as you have done the lab book exercises, but sometimes her wording is confusing. Tries to help, but I feel like I can explain it 20 times faster. Nice lady though

Comment:

Well,I only sat in her class once to just realize that she doesn't strike me as a computer savvy. teaching at an adult school is better suited for her.My advice to those who really want to learn is to go to Cmptn and look for prof. Sahebjame.He is smart,polite, great at teaching, and hard worker.He is worth driving 10 extra miles. I am in his class

Comment:

Prof. Thompson went through the material too fast at the start.As the semester went on she gave more reasonable amount of time to do work.Thompson did not give good explanations of how to to do or correct documentation for our projects.She needs to plan how to present the material better.I still managed to learn a lot about web programming.

Comment:

Very Hard Teacher. She didn't teach me anything i learned from the book. I would ask her for help and she would not explain she always made me look in the book. Teacher is nice but rude. Do not recommend at all especially if you really want to learn how to use Office 2007.

Comment:

She is a sweet lady as long as you don't get on her bad side. Her lecture tests are not that hard and are all multiple choice with a few true or false questions. Her hands on tests are very difficult but if you practice then you can do 'ok'. Her class requires a good amount of work outside of class to stay cought up. Over all she is a good teacher.

Comment:

You are going to learn a lot about computers, which means you will need to spend a lot of time on the subject. I DON'T think that she is the "most worst teacher ever" as one person here so elegantly stated. She offers 150 extra credit points and drops your lowest test grade. I didn’t have to take the final and got an A.
