Comment:

Really a good teacher. She can be a tough grader at times, but always fair. I enjoyed her her great teaching personality, and I learned a lot from the clarity of her lectures. Definitely one of the best teachers I've had in college so far. She does poke fun from time to time, but she always does it lightheartedly and with the goal to help you learn

Comment:

She is always there to help you out. If you don't go for help, it's on you. Her door is always open for assistance. Her humor is also very unique. landing in a more sarcastic realm. If you don't like work and don't want to be challenged, don't take her class, but if you want to get better as at what you do, take her, you won't regret it.

Comment:

To get the most out of her class first realize that her sense of humor is dry. She will challenge people constantly but I learned more from this class than most. This class was one of the most challenging and satisfying. Need help? ASK. It's on you. her instructions are clear and she knows her subject.

very unhelpful. she teaches from the top of her head. she doesn't help those who are struggling. 98% of classes failed because she was unhelpful to the class and the exams are insane. i wouldn't recommend taking her at all, take anyone for her to save yourself from failing.

Comment:

She teaches from her head, and you'll use the book for reference, but not necessarily chapter-by-chapter. She'll ask questions during class to see if you know your stuff or if you're paying attention. She is always available when she says and is more than willing to help you on assignments.

Comment:

She is a very challenging teacher, so you really have to pay attention, do your homework, and ask about anything you don't understand. You do that, and you'll do well, but most importantly, you'll learn a lot and really feel like you earned your grade.

Very intense teaching style. Really challenges the class and requires everyone to participate. Her teaching methods are not for everyone, but I really like it. Would definitely attend her class again.

Comment:

Great teacher. She explains everything very clearly and if you have any questions she is more than happy to answer them for you. She is also very helpful if you have questions on homework. She's a bit strict and asks a TON of questions in class, but that only improves the students' knowledge. Wouldn't hesitate to take her again.

Awesome, she's very understanding, and will meet with you almost any time in her office. More challenging than other professors at webster, you'll learn a lot, but if you don't pay attention you'll be lost. Wish she would use more open source tools, and talk more about object oriented prog. theory, though.

Comment:

She failed half of her class and there was only 11 students in the class. She is not a good teacher at all. She doesn't explain concepts clearly. She doesn't fully answer your questins, she just makes you come back to her over and over for the same problem. Poor teacher and many students do not like her classes.
