Comment:

Very unclear about what she wants for each assignment. A lot of time is spent interpreting what she wants us to do, which can be very frustrating. This might be intentional to teach us about problem solving or something like that but it seems like she is just inarticulate and vague.

Overall, she is a good professor who explains material fairly well. I think it is simply the way introductory engineering class are run such that the homework assignments are graded so stringently.

Comment:

Where do I start, if your idea of a good teacher is someone who throws together long boring power points, acts like she is above teaching a freshman engineering course and is picky (which is an understatement) about grades then shes for you. Even her TA's complain about her behind her back. And who gave her a hot rating? You sir have low standards.

Comment:

If you dont dot your i correctly, Tamara will knock off points. She's not cool. She's a nice lady, but waaaay too by the book. She works incredibly hard for the class, and you can tell that she loves all her students, but she'll take off points where you might have had a different opinion.
