The professor was a disaster and unhelpful. graded harshly, and made learning feel like punishment. Her lectures were chaotic, her feedback nonexistent. Honestly, I really would not recommend this professor.ME5620 2026-01-14 04:32:32 +0000 UTC
can't tell that she cares about you, grades papers harshly, lecture style is reading slidesENGR5670 2020-12-14 02:38:34 +0000 UTC
The professor was far more difficult than the material she taught.ME2340 2019-05-08 19:01:06 +0000 UTC
Shes tough but fairCHEU322 2016-12-13 09:59:54 +0000 UTC
She is brutal with her grading! No sympathy for student's. If you as a teacher can't have an ounce of empathy for students then you shouldn't teach.ME5620 2026-01-14 04:28:40 +0000 UTC

"Here to build your intuition, not to help you get an A in class" Rarely will answer homework problems that you have. Expects you to bring outside knowledge of materials to the class. Requires that students participate (she uses her attendance sheet to call on people). Her lectures do not teach the materials, they simply summarize the text.ME2340 2019-03-27 15:11:34 +0000 UTC
worst professor ive ever had. teaches straight out of the textbook verbatim but doesnt understand any of it. unable to answer any questions on any topics and has her back to the class writing full sentences from the text onto the board. Might as well have a classmate teach the class or find another professor asap!CHEU322 2008-09-24 21:26:14 +0000 UTC
