-Doesn't really explain concepts well
I gave her a 4 because of her lovable characteristics, however her class is a little hard to follow because she's pretty disorganized. She gives you the notes for exams, so they're easy if you just study a little. She is scatter brained, but overall harmless and you'll get a good grade if you just pay attention and study the notes

Pros: She's lively and has class discussions instead of rambling on. Practice tests, no final just some quizzes, easy A+ with extra credit.
Cons: The textbook is pretty necessary and should bring it to class (annoying when you're commuting) Had to write essays with scholarly sources and were graded kind of harshly.
I don't know why nobody seems to like her. I'm taking more of her classes I think she's awesome!

Cons: Doesn't follow the syllabus
Disorganized
Inpatient
Spends too much time on things that aren't relevant
Exams are hard
Bottom line - you barely learn ANYTHING from her at all
I took her for computer assisted data analysis I, but it wasn't listed above. I am taking a different professor for computer assisted data analysis II, even though they advise you not to do this. Do not take her. I also took her for history and systems of psychology. She is disorganized, reads right from the slides, and doesn't seem like she knows what she's talking about when it comes to statistics. She doesn't follow her syllabus, and her exams are unnecessarily difficult. I'm not even sure where she gets the information to put her exam together. She is very opinionated too.

She was, by far, the worst professor or teacher of any kind that I have ever had. I took Psych Stat II with her. She didn't know the material, was unorganized, changed her mind about grading procedures, and was verbally abusive to students.
I didn't learn a single thing from her class.

Cons: She changed the syllabus on the last day of class which isn't even allowed! She previously told us that homework didn't count and on the last day she told the class she was now going to count it. She was rude, and when you asked her questions she had to work backward from the answer- doesn't know her information. She never arrived on time even though she knows she doesn't know how to use the projector and used up a lot of time. Gets very flustered. The main thing is she's rude and incompetent
This is for PSY 365 but it wasn't listed above...
