She is a good teacher.STR301 2011-03-26 21:57:33 +0000 UTC
Professor moves fast and furious. If you go to class and put the effort in (do homework, go to recitation and participate in class) you will get a grade you deserve. Great professor, just very busy with her research, family, ect. so a little estra work may be required on your part to keep up.CIVU330 2009-04-27 13:51:09 +0000 UTC
Wadia-Fascetti is really intelligent but sometimes she expects us to understand the material when it's really complicated. She is willing to answer questions but it's a conceptual class so it's hard to understand her answers. You always need to try examples. Her tests are hard but the quizzes are easy if you attend classes and do the homework.CIVU320 2007-03-21 14:43:57 +0000 UTC
cares about her studentsSTUCTURALANALY 2006-02-18 22:56:42 +0000 UTC
Im sure shes smart but she sucks at teaching.Her lectures are unorganized and she cant answer questions, she is unclear, unprepared, and has a twitch that i wont even touch on.Our final took so long(4hrs)we had to migrate down the hall to a new room in order to finish, the whole class!No 1 was done!If you have a choice stay away otherwise good luckSTRUCTANALYS1 2005-12-16 14:42:35 +0000 UTC
very good prof - def helpfulSTRUCANALYSIS 2005-05-13 08:23:07 +0000 UTC
she is a nice lady. always answers your emailed questions promptly. she covers way too much material and goes to quickly because of it. when you start a new topic, she never tells you what you are learning the new topic for, she just proofs it and expects you to know how to use it. she pants while she talks. does easy examples and gives hard exam ?CIVU320 2006-12-10 15:53:43 +0000 UTC
