CollegeI'm genuinely curious who decided to hire her. The problem is not her thick and un-understandable accent, but it's her rotten personality that is not acceptable. She can't teach, can't have sympathy, the only thing she care about is herself. Don't ever take her class, just wait.
Someone lock this horse up pls ?
Don't take pstat 120A with her. There are better options where you wont have to suffer so much. She doesn't care about our grades and didn't curve the class with a very low average.
Very difficult exams and lectures covered concepts but based on course material struggled to make distinct connections on how to solve applications of these concepts. Overall was a little too theory based in lecture, making it hard to solve difficult problems shown on exams. Hoping for a curve.
She had really hard exams, and it was fairly difficult to follow her lectures.
Super test heavy (70% of total grade) which is graded on very very strict criteria. The other 30% of the grade comes from difficult homework which is barely related to the main concept or utilizes methods not explained in class. The homework is also graded on accuracy so any percentage that goes towards your grade is hard to get. Curve needed.
