Sara is the most amazing teacher I've ever had. She is incredibly helpful and really cares about her students.

Myers is extremely well put together, but a bit soft spoken. Lecutres notes are given online, but missing some points so you go to class. The study guide is extremely helpful. 1 case study (7-10pgs) and a creative brief ad assignment. MC midterm & final. Overall good class, A LOT of info.

She's a great speaker and her lectures are easy to follow. Tests and quizzes are straight forward although some questions are tricky, so be sure to ask for clarification. Myers is also a gorgeous woman - very put together and classy. Loved her and her class. Take COMM 166 - marketing is very interesting and you'll learn a lot!

Sara is amazing! One of the most patient, amicable professors I've had. She is great. You get out what you put in...Don't blame anyone but yourself for the fact that you're failing. You clearly aren't studying. The prof repeats things SLOWLY, has office hours daily, offers tutoring, and the book is clear. It's YOUR fault if you don't get it.

The class isn't too hard but Sara isn't too great of a teacher. She's unclear and you need to do A LOT of learning on your own. I absolutely love hebrew, but Sara is slowly but surely making me hate it. I dread going to her class

Take Sara! She is a great professor and this class is good if you (speak hebrew) need extra units and want a good grade.

Very nice woman. Class is pretty easy but I somehow managed to get a B+ :/ One midterm, one final, no papers, and an advertising project. Tests are both mc and straight-forward but they are very short (only 40 q's) so even missing a couple screws you over. Notes are online with fill-in-the-blanks to get you to go to lecture

Most of your grade is based on the midterm, final, and group project. The group project all quarter, and you have to do a presentation and paper thats a big part of the grade. The midterm and final are PRETTY easy, straight from the study guide she gives you. i got a B+

Sara is really helpful inside and outside of class. She goes out her way to make sure students understand the material. She is a fair grader. She truly enjoys her subject and that is displayed every day in class.

Interesting class. Her lectures were clear and tests were fair. You have to do 2 group projects which take a lot of time. There are many opportunities to affect your grade. She really tries to connect the material to real life. This was one of the most useful comm classes I have taken

The lectures and tests were super easy and straightforward, but the material seemed a bit outdated. The group project was AWFUL. We had to write so many journal entries, make a presentation at the end, and then write a paper about our experience in a small group. My TA was a hard grader, too.

Sara's great. She's really nice and fair when it comes to grading. She's always eager to help and even encourages us to call her at home if we have questions before a test. She treats us like adults and tells us stories about Israeli society. It's obvious that she really cares. Tests throughout the quarter and then a final. Lots of conversation.

Don't miss class! Her tests are EASY, probably the easiest I have taken in the department (I just finished the major). However, she is a really tough grader on all of the assignments/case studies.Lecture is straight from the book.

She's the best! She got rid of long papers because 'students don't like them.' Lots of little assignments. Some are graded harder than others but you'll know which. You have to go to class because the activities make up a good part of the grade but she doesn't take roll. No group work, doesn't randomly call on people, little reading. She's so nice!

Midterm and final aren't too hard. Theres a 8-10 page paper that isn't hard to do, but depends on the TA. Just be sure to go to class. She is pretty cool. I'd take this over other boring/hard classes.

She's great! This class was new, but there's no midterm or final. 4 EASY quizzes, just go to class. She gives very clear study guides that tell you everything that you'll be tested on. No surprises. There is an easy but time consuming group project.

Sara is a great teacher. Her class gets more challenging as the quarters pass but I have really learned a lot and love taking an intimately sized class. We really get to know everyone in the class and learn a new language at the same time.

She is very fair and best of all she tells you what's on the test so you always know what to expect. I never feel bored in her class.

She's great, really jumps into Israeli society and tries to share as much of it as she can with the students. She has her political opinions but allows others to speak their own.
