Comment:

Probably the worst teacher I've ever had. No feedback, no reply to emails, she has totally no interest in teaching this class. You will not learn anything. It is basically only public speaking class. I can't understand why PSU doesn't fire her.

Comment:

This class is ENTIRELY dependent upon the group you attach yourself to. Be very careful with whom you select. Fuller's grading system and syllabus is incomprehensible, but she's not a bad person in the end. She just gets tired of irresponsible people as we all do so stay on top of your work and you'll do fine. This class is a lot of work though.

Comment:

The worst professor I have had during college education. The teacher regularly took > a week to reply to email. All of her typing was riddled with typos. Her quiz questions were often semantically null and sometimes flat out incorrect. Prideful, apathetic, unprofessional and utterly disconnected from reality. I now support merit based educator pay.

Comment:

This was a online class at PSU. When you have a online class you expect the teacher to reply to the message board/email relatively quickly, within a day. No, it would take her a good 3 weeks to reply, its a 8 week class!!! This teacher made me not want to go to school anymore and just work full time. Worst teacher I have ever had!!!

Comment:

Quite possibly the worst professor at PSU. Useless and incomprehensible. Grades only on grammar, despite her lack of it. No critical analysis of financial formulas, thinking, or problem solving, so don't expect to learn anything about finance. Incapable of looking at the cases from more than 1 (her) angle. And this is a capstone finance class.

Comment:

All term I had an A-/B+ average and ended up with a D-This is the feedback I got from the instructor "sorry, i realized that i put your plan to the side and it got covered with my other course's finals. i will change your grade no later than by wednesday." Grade still hasn't changed and Wednesday was yesterday.

Worst online class I've ever taken. Professor does not respond to emails, quiz questions are often wrong, syllabus is unclear, lots of spelling and grammar problems, and poor basis for grading.

Comment:

Uh, wait, is this an online class or what?! b/c by the lack of communication VIA EMAIL you would think you had in class opportunities to talk to her. Her exam questions are WRONG at times and when addressed she has useless comments. UNBELIEVABLE, DO NOT take this course, better off in class with a good professor!!! I'm really pissed.

Comment:

I have taken alot of college classes, and this woman is one of the worst. I honestly cant believe that I paid a rather expensive tuition for THIS! If I paid out-of-state, I would SUE. Rude, disorganized, unbelievably bad spelling and grammer, & does not communicate well. The D2L for the class is MESSED UP, and she wont fix it. Stay away.

Comment:

This was, hand down, the worst class i've ever had in college. The syllabus is extremely poorly written, and makes it impossible to follow the class. Not to mention, the entire class is filled with typos, including quizzes. I actually did all of the useless work and assigments she assigns, and was given a bad final grade. DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS.

Comment:

Horrible professor. A 4 page syllabus with no useful content, grades finance papers on grammar alone it seems. Disorganized, admits to ignoring emails asking for help/clarification. Reads off the powerpoints and offers no new content or insight. TERRIBLE! If there were any other options I would drop this class now and wait for another professor

Comment:

One word: TERRIBLE. But you have to take it & she is the only teacher. She is very disorganized, so many people miss presentation dates b/c her syllabus is confusing. She doesn't explain anything, so read the syllabus 10 times. She doesn't grade on content but on grammar, yet, her grammar is terrible. I am so glad I am done w/ the class. Finally!

Comment:

Online personal finance classes are simple enough, but this teacher found a way to make the class unclear, unorganized, and yes, she doesn't respond to emails or questions very well. There is TONS of busy work in this class, every week lots of discussions and quizzes required. However, it is easy to pass and the teacher is not horrible.

Comment:

Took her online personal finance course. The class is structured well and was a pretty effective online class. However, she is TERRIBLE at responding to questions/emails, which in an online class is a big deal. Plus she has a crazy amount of typos (more of pet peeve than anything). I do NOT recommend due to her being unaccountable to students needs

Comment:

I just had her online class this summer and be warned, do not take her online class! I've never had to do soo much work before for a class. She has quizzes, mandatory discussion questions, a final project, a trading simulation, you have to posts 20 sites for a current event discussion AND 20 posts for a good sites discussion. Grades very hard

Comment:

Class was fast paced, lots of online assignments. Teacher was involved with online discussions, but very unhelpful when it came to clarifying questions. Quiz questions were unknown, not in the book (only some were missing). Recommended, but lots of independent work since she won't help

Great online class; you have to keep up with the work and contribute to the conversations. Nice enough professor - meet with her during office hours; that will break lots of ice. Overall good professor - will help you if you ask, and show that you're interested.

Comment:

I had her for an online class so I can't comment too much on her personality. However, she seems very smart. The class was pretty difficult and had high standards which led me to learn a lot from it. A few times, she seemed a little strict and unreasonable, but overall not a bad teacher.

Comment:

I should have listened to warnings that have been posted. DO NOT take her online finance class. This is a person who has long since lost the passion she may have once had. If you try to contact her or meet with her, she is the most breathtakingly rude person you can imagine. Take another instructor if you can.

Comment:

Totally ineffective teacher. Syllabus was a complete mess, quizzes covered material we had not discussed, poor textbook selection. I am a Finance MBA but her intro/finance class stinks. She's poorly organized and a bad communicator.
