This is for 154. I am extremely disappointed with this professor.There is no structure to the class and she is entirely using a different professors material. The TA is the backbone of this class yet the professor is always complaining and is very critical of the TA. If you want to learn GIS don't take this class, you don't actually learn anything.

for 154, not 193, but worst professor ever. doesn't know the material at all. talks trash about the TA to all of us students instead of actually teaching anything useful, and would fight with the TA in front of us students which is beyond unprofessional. she has a PhD and yet is still lazy, she doesn't even try to learn the material she teaches.

By far one of the worst professors I have ever had. Every lecture was extremely unclear, unorganized, and downright incomprehensible. Her requirements for assignments were very, very confusing. And don't even get me started on the attendance... She seemed like a nice person, but girl, get it together.

As a professor you shouldn't ad-lib your lectures and if you do you shouldn't make your lecturs mandatory or you're wasting the collective time of 30 people that could be doing something productive with their time. I learned almost nothing from this class.

Extremely disorganized. While the material wasn't difficult, figuring out what she was looking for was. She made changes super last minute and only gave us guidelines if we repeatedly asked for them. There are much better lecturers in the ES department so I would avoid this class and professor.

genuinely cares about students and challenges the way you view resources. amazing lectures and assignments are straightforward
