CollegeShe was the best professor ever. She makes learning understandable, clear with her instructions, does problems in class. She wants you to succeed and she genuinely cares and makes content interesting. I miss her everyday. You will too when you have boring professors after. go to office hours, she recognizes your effort. love her #grateful
She was the best professor I have ever had. I miss her everyday. She explains topics very well and is very caring. She wants you to succeed and made me encouraged to learn. She does problems in class that you are able to follow along with and makes you genuinely learn. she remembered my name after I asked her a question. super caring. love her.
The BEST Econ professor ever! She explains concepts SUPER WELL (makes difficult concepts INCREDIBLY UNDERSTANDABLE) and is ALWAYS accessible in her office hours. She's very willing to help you in any way she can and her exams are VERY REASONABLE as long as you put in the work and understand the INTUITIONS! Super funny and outgoing. ALWAYS TAKE HER!
textbook optional (pretty unhelpful). reasonable grading scheme (quizzes make up 15% of grade but you only need to go to 3 out of 5). sign up for CLAS and spam practice exams. she made a mistake on a midterm and the final and gave everyone credit for those questions.
first week of class,asked a simple clarification question after lecture.She responded in a dismissive, condescending way, saying it was on Canvas and I should check before asking,like I wasted her time,uncalled for, felt uncomfortable asking questions.millennial,doesn't care about DSP accommodations,-20% on midterm because TA didn't collect my test
She is a very good lecturer and explains concepts clearly. Her tests are difficult, but with enough self-studying, practice problems, and CLAS, you will definitely be able to do well. Make sure you understand the problems conceptually and don't just go through the motions.
