Absolutely the worst. I don't go to Northeastern but I have her for Physics 1 at Wentworth. Terrible teacher, awful accent, tests are terrible. Labs/homework are the easiest grade- based off of participation . Lectures are not helpful. Better off looking up how to do it online than listen to her.PHYS1149 2017-11-17 17:09:55 +0000 UTC
Terrible professor. You might as well teach yourself out of the book because coming to class and listening to her speak is a waste of time.PHYS1141 2010-12-22 22:21:59 +0000 UTC
if you have an issue or problem, go to her directly. she is actually one of the most understanding professors i've had here. she truly cares about how you do if you show her you are invested in the class. though she does not have the neatest writing, it's not like you can't ask her to clarify. overall, extremely helpful and nice.PHYS1 2010-11-10 04:56:52 +0000 UTC
Does a lot of theory and not enough application. Only went to lecture to copy down the equations I needed to use to finish the homework because they were hard to find in the book. Really boring. Speaks english well but does have an accent. Doesn't usually interfere with communication, handwriting bad thoughPHYS1156 2009-12-18 00:10:54 +0000 UTC
Reads textbook word for word, doesn't answer questions, ignores them. Can't speak English, doesn't know how to use email. Doesn't follow syllabus. Doesn't repeat things. Doesn't update blackboard. Does not provide solutions and refuses to do so. Doesn't have control of class, does not provide grades in reasonable time. WORTHLESS.PHY147 2009-03-04 15:47:56 +0000 UTC
This is by far one of the worst professors i have ever had. She can hardly speak english . Her lectures are useless. She will explain the entire lesson without writing anything on the board. When she does write on the board to her handwriting is very sloppy and hard to understand. SWITCH OUT!PHYS147 2009-02-26 16:20:28 +0000 UTC
This woman literally doesn't know the English alphabet. It's unclear whether her inability to answer a question is because she doesn't understand what you're asking, or she doesn't know the subject she's teaching. Either way she should NEVER be allowed to teach! ILS with her is a complete waste of time and it's unfair that others get real teachers.PHY157 2009-02-17 10:58:30 +0000 UTC
Worst teacher everPHYS1149 2010-10-01 19:29:39 +0000 UTC
Absolute worst professor ever. Impossible to understand, rude and obnoxious to students, gives unfair questions. She actually refuses to answer questions. Will not compromise or throw out exam questions that 3/4 of the students got wrong.. because she can't teach the topics. If you have the option, DO NOT take this class with her. You'll regret itPHY147 2008-12-15 15:58:49 +0000 UTC
