Like a previous reviewer said, this class has potential but needs a different instructor, not a tired old nurse.

And a very old nurse at that. Avoid this class at all costs and don't waste your time. You can read a book instead and learn more.

Comment:

Horrible woman! Her fill-in-the-bank midterm is on the most obscure things. The essay questions are easy though. The large assignment is so stupid! She gives no guidelines at all! And ask questions and she will not know the answer. Her notes are very vague and one word notes DO NOT HELP WHEN STUDYING! I did well in the class, but no thanks to her.

Talks down to students and is very rude. Gets defensive if you ask her questions she can't answer. Obviously not a happy person.

Comment:

Very condescending and not very helpful. Avoid her classes if you can. Midterms made up of tiny insignificant details that you should not need to remember. If you have a question best not to ask because she won't know the answer to it.

Generally ineffective as an instructor and has a really bad attitude as a very sour icing on a flaky cake.

I just stumbled upon this website and although I took this class awhile ago I am surprised to see this horrible disturbed woman is still on the faculty list. There is nothing stimulating about her.

Monotone, borrring. However you can get an easy grade if you are prepared to endure a little bit of pain. Just don't expect to learn anything for your hard earned tuition.

Comment:

I am astonished she is still teaching - the faculty must be desperate! I'm a history major, not in psych, but this woman seems to have major issues. She is totally rude and arrogant yet has little to be arrogant about. Someone should do her a favor and suggest serious therapy.

Avoid if possible! She is extremely boring and unhelpful, not to mention her tests are based on obscure facts and she asks vague questions on the paragraphs and does not mark fairly!

A terrible prof. She is a disgrace to professors. She does not care about the students, on exams asks obscure questions that have multiple answers. Do not take her class unless you have to.

Comment:

Coming into the class I was very impressed and excited about the stuff she was teaching. But as time went on, It became clear that she didnt really care much about her student...it feels like shes teaching for HER. She doesnt seem to care about the exams and her grading system is a big mess...dont take the class unless you're willing to work alone

Comment:

Painful. Coming into the class I was pretty excited about the material, but the monotone lectures were painfully boring, I wanted to die. Online notes did not help and were unintelligable and actually made things worse, if thats possible. Easy marking coupled with the curve sucked. This class has potential but needs a new prof. You've been warned.

Comment:

You all have got to be kidding me! I thought she was a wonderful prof! I never, ever once thought of her as condescending (not to those who didn't deserve it, anyway :P) or incompetant. I had her for a night class, and sure classes were long but she was well-prepared, she marked fairly, her exams were reasonable and she knows her stuff!

Comment:

On top of being 100% incompetent she is rude and condescending. When students ask her genuine questions she gives them attitude because she’s too stupid to know the answer. Her exams are easy but at the same time she uses the most obscure test questions. I would NEVER take another class with this woman again.
