Shes smart and enthusiasitc. But she would constantly make you feel uncomfortable in her class. She taught a little in class but supposed us to know everything on exams. Also, she graded undergrads as her PhD students. She would never offer you any grading creteria or prompt on everything you worked on. Not very clear about what she exactly wanted
I looked forward to this class every day. She's enthusiastic and tries to make it fun. She 'll be annoyed if you habitually blow off the homework but that's the only time I've seen her give someone the "look" other people mention. Just don't blow off the homework daily? She's organized and her expectations are super clear. I'll miss her class!
She's really mean and I hated going to her class. She makes you feel dumb if you get a question wrong. Very uncomfortable atmosphere in her class. She knows what she's talking about, but it isn't worth the dread she makes you feel. You've been warned
Dr. Lindheim is a life-saver... accepts homework a day late if you forget to do it :D The class is really hard but she really works with the class to make sure you get it. Super nice lady.
She is friendly with students and tries to work with the level of understanding the class has. This means staying on a lesson until we understand, which is very helpful. A lot of people seemed dissatisfied, but I think they just asked ridiculous questions having nothing to do with class.
Lindheim is very passionate about what she teaches. She expects you to learn the material, and moves very quickly and very organized through it. She is very nice, but gives very...disappointed looks when you don't understand the material; however, this is great incentive to pay attention and actually learn. You will LEARN. She's a great teacher.
