PSTAT10 . 6 Months Ago

The issue is not in the way she teaches or the organization of the course, but rather the structure of tests themselves which were weighted so highly. She tries to trip you up on syntax and tests little things you can only get from memorizing things in lectures. It felt more-so like a memorization test than anything.

Good professor with fair grading criteria. Gives practice exams that are similar to the real exams. Kind lady with a real passion for teaching. Brought cookies for our class and gave them to those who participated

Great prof over all, really cares about her students well being. Talked about wanting to help students get into research and was very willing to give career advice outside of class time. You can tell teaching is her passion, and although her style isnt for everyone I think she was great. Don't understand the negative comments, it's unwarranted.

The only thing that mattered about this class was the weekly two sections. I found her lecture to be hard to understand but easy to learn on my own or through my TA. The majority of the grade is fluff which is nice however I felt unprepared for the final which is our only test. Take her class though because I heard the other ones are harder.
