Comment:
Taught from overhead projector. Slides fraught with errors both of law and textual. She always showed up late to class, didn't begin "teaching" until 30 mins into class time. Unprofessional in demeanor and use of language. Does not allow examsoft/exams must be hand written. Worst professor at UMD Law.

Her negativity and sour attitude are a drain on the energy of the school. On a power trip. Will avoid her at all costs.

I have taken her for several classes, she has a better understanding of the computer these days, she does use power point, but also tests that way, read the book, take strong notes, stay off facebook and you will do fine...

Comment:
This lady is just plain terrible. She asks all these hypotheticals that are put up in small print on a powerpoint presentation. How much teaching goes into that? NONE! Its all about teaching ourselves in this class and she is worse than a kindergarten teacher. Easily and hands down, the worst teacher of all time. Congratulations - you suck

Actually tests like she taught you the material...but she doesnt teach you anything, other then why SNESL gets a bad rap. Has slides from years past, full of typos... still cannot work laptop, and talks about going home/class over early to watch TV

I agree with everone she is a horrible teacher. In my class she was more concerned with hurrying home to watch the biggest loser, instead of helping the students who requested her help. She is a disgrace.

Nice person but hard to learn from. Not very clear explanation, doesn't cover assigned materials in class, could teach yourself this class better during assgined class time. Disappointing at best. Interesting material but had a hard time staying focused in class.

Comment:
Not only is she the worst teacher I've had in law school, I think there are kindgergarten teachers better. Absolutely awful is how to describe this lady. What's worse is the fact the Deans of the school are forcing students to take her again next semester. This lady needs to go. Without her labtop and slides, it is a waste of time.

What is this lady doing? She had no grasp on what is going on. For a school on the up and coming, she is such a detriment to the law society. Does not meet student's requests, is very unclear in her teachings, and is overal bad. I can teach this class better.

Comment:
For what it is worth (and in the context of a legal education it is worth very little) she is a really nice and genuine woman. However, she is simply not qualified to teach. She is the worst teacher at SNESL hands down! I am sorry but it has to be said- SHE IS A DISGRACE TO THE LEGAL PROFESSION, TO ACADEMIA, AND MOST OF ALL TO SNESL! MAKE HER GO!!

"Horrible and a disgrace to the school. I question the Dean's motivations for not firing her. Other professors work so hard and all that is taken away by unprepared, unqualified, unprofessional professors like this. Avoid her AT ALL COSTS!"- I fully concur! She is USELESS and I am SERIOUSLY considering starting a petition to oust her! FIRE HER WARD

Horrible and a disgrace to the school. If you only ever took her class, you would know why the school has a poor reputation. I question the Dean's motivations for not firing her. Other professors work so hard and all that is taken away by unprepared, unqualified, unprofessional professors like this. Avoid her AT ALL COSTS!

I concur with the previous opinion of Evidence class, this class has more in common with the Maury Show than a law school class. Survive this class and move forward!

Very poor professor, she is chronically unprepared, and her classes resembles a circus. You are better off spending time with a supplement than going to class. If you are actually interested in learning, don't bother with her.
