Comment:

I can't understand a word she says sometime, and almost everything she's teaching us I have already learned. She confuses herself and the rest of the class, and she says "is that right?" nearly every 5 minutes. Seriously, she said it 35 times in two hours once. do you not know if its not right? are you asking us? shes like Mr Mackey from sourh park

Comment:

Yoko Baba is by far the worst professor I have had. I would expect more from a graduate professor. Lectures are long and she often confuses herself during her lectures. If her material isn't even clear to her, how are we supposed to understand it? Save your time, money, and do not take her class.

Comment:

Baba is a misleading professor. Her grading scale is wack and she seems to definitly have favorites. She passes the bare minimum and almost expects students to fail. lets get rid of her!

Comment:

Very interesting teacher. Easy if you show up for classes. Gives you the essay questions before the test, no reason not to do well. She is very sweet and really cares about her students and is very knowledgable and interested in what she does! Would definately recommend her to anyone!

Comment:

She is very sweet. She really cares about her students. She doesn't make class difficult she just has a lot of information. I would take her again because she really cares about her students. I got a C in her class without EVEN trying so if I did try I can easily get an A.

Comment:

Professor Baba is nice, kind, and considerate to excuses and her students but her lectures are extremely boring and redundant. Hard to follow her point! Demands material that she hasn't really taught in her lectures in her assignments and tests. Not recommended!

She is very picky and is hard in grading. She is a hard teacher to please, but yet has favorites. Never misses class and gives no break, this lady could talk...

Comment:

Overall Prof. Baba was a good professor. Although she has a thick accent, her lectures are pretty straighforward. Her exams are essays questions which you can prepare ahead of time. She's very nice and cares for her students.

She is very sweet and really cares about her students and ethics she is teaching. Her tests are essay, but easy if you take notes. The book you read is so interesting. You have to do 1 presentation, but it is informal and she wants you to feel comfortable

Comment:

This teacher is great. She goes over things at length which can be repetitive and boring sometimes, but she is SO EASY and just wants you to learn something. She has an accent you have to get used to, but she really cares and is always for the underdog!!!

Comment:

I really liked her. She goes over everything which can be kinda boring but useful during the midterms and final. You have to read b/c you should include lots of detail in midterms. The reading is really interesting.

Comment:

I wouldn't take this lady. She is so lame. Take another class. Her midterms are 3 essay questions (she gives u 7 and picks 3) and she grades real tough! The midterms are the only cool part of this class! Also she has a thick accent & is hard to understand

Comment:

This is the worst teacher I have had in all my life. She say's "this is very difficult" for everything. If she thinks everything is difficult how can she possibly teach her students anything. She is out of tune, out of touch and just plan out
