Her class is easy but she is probably the most annoying teacher I've ever had. She talks to us like we're small children, is insanely disorganized, NEVER responds to emails, and the semester is almost over and there's not a single thing graded. So frustrating.

It's finals week and we still do not have grades in from the beginning of the semester. She is unclear about how she expects assignments to be. There are about 10-12 things missing in the grade book right now which makes it impossible for us to know what we will need to get on the final. I would not recommend this teacher.

She did class participation every day. She had 10 assignments ungraded the week of finals week. Put final grades in before anyone could see what they received and locked the canvas classroom so all grades weren't able to be viewed. I wouldn't have gone to class unless mandatory. Taught myself, busy work, and she has an annoying voice

So disorganized! Takes forever to grade anything. Lectures are very boring and it seems like she is not prepared at all. She's nice but gets very mad if people talk during lecture. If you show up and do the work you will be fine. Its just very annoying when a teacher is so disorganized.

Aimee Walker is a nice person but her grading makes NO SENSE. Currently struggling of her midterm, very little of the information was EVER discussed in class. She gives the smallest overview, then expects us to know details she never discussed. Doesn't grade anything on time or answer emails. So unclear, Most frustrating prof Ive ever had

Paid for a class to be treated like a preschooler, be prepared to sing and dance. She takes about half the semester to grade a 2 paragraph paper. Is not flexible about missing Fun Fridays (which are not fun). Does not communicate expectations. If you need an easy A and go to class, this is the class for you!

Worst professor at CSU. Has no idea what she's doing. Loads a stupid project into the last TWO weeks of the semester and gives NO instructions and when you ask for help she gets rude/mad bc you don't get it. You cannot reach her outside of class, I emailed her and never got a response for over a month. Never posted the online final when she said

Connects material to everyday life. However, she changed the way the grades were weighted after all the tests and assignments where turned in. My grade went from a b to a c because of her changing the weight scale and there was nothing I could do because the semester was over. She takes months to grade. She also has no problem yelling.

Worst professor in the HDFS department. I am a senior at CSU and she has ruined my experience. She is unorganized and unhelpful and rude.I know she is intelligent but she is rude and does not care about students

This professor was honestly never very helpful, was very inconsistent in her grading, and to be honest wasn't very kind when I asked for help. She made me feel like an idiot when I was confused, which has resulted in me writing this review because I am so angry with how she treats me and runs her class! Not a fan, try to avoid

This prof's grading criteria and feedback are so vague yet she grades certain projects extremely harshly. When I emailed her about my concerns, she was standoffish and rude. Throughout her course, she was also very unorganized in all aspects of her teaching (canvas page, assignment outlines, etc). I do not recommend Aimee Walker AT ALL.

Aimee is so passive aggressive when speaking to her about any questions on assignments and argues with you. She does not respond to emails and her assignments are so disorganized that they make no sense. She only holds "work days" for questions about assignments on Fridays Her rubrics do not reflect her grading criteria.

Aimee is the worst. She is not available outside of class time and hardly answers emails with questions. She does not provide rubrics for assignments and gets upset and irritated when questions are asked. Class material is not helpful and repetitive. The most attitude & disrespect from a prof, and not enough instruction. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS!

The absolute worst teacher at CSU. Do not take any classes with aime, she is extremely disrespectful and rude, her assignments, exams, quizzes and so forth have the most confusing instructions, and if you do poorly she will not give feedback that provides any insight. She is disrespectful, and makes things extremely difficult. DONT TAKE HER CLASS!

In a class called "creative experiences for children" students were put through the ringer, receiving super low scores on projects they worked hard on. No clarification of directions, and was extremely standoffish when students asked for help. I do not recommend.

This professor has extremely unclear expectations and descriptions of her assignments. Every person I have talked to in the class has a shared level of confusion when it comes to what she expects from us. The content is easy and has its educational purposes but her approach and teaching styles are very unprofessional and confusing.

she gives NO clear descriptions on assignments at all and then you get a horrible grade with no explanation on why. the projects are hard, the lectures are very boring and do not make any sense. i feel like i have learned nothing in this class but worked so hard on assignments

I have never left a review for a professor before, but this professor really earned it. DO NOT take a class with Aimee Walker. She refused to put the syllabus up on the Canvas page, then proceeded to put up a quiz about the syllabus and took points off if you did not email her to ask why the syllabus was not posted yet. Least helpful professor.

Aimee Walkers class drove me out of my major. Her lack of teaching ability made the class unbearable. She gave no response when asked a question about her unclear grading and she often was rude and refused to explain projects citing we "needed to figure it out on our own in order to learn the course materials", also giving us no materials in canvas

worst professor ever, makes me consider changing majors just so I never have to take one of her classes ever again. The course itself is just stupid and a waste of time, doesn't explain assignments in class, very clear she has a "figure it out on your own mindset." doesn't release assignments til night before they're do and doesn't let u work ahead

Extremely difficult to reach out to her ever. She will give office hours at times no one will be able to make and when you do go to her online office hours she is not there. Then never responds to her emails. Her lectures are long and a majority of it was about her. Would not recommend taking a class from her.

I mostly just learned the class by teaching myself. Lecture-only class with just busy work that I got nothing out of, I put really no effort into the class and ended with an A-. Just do okay on the 2 exams. The teacher is also annoying in her own way not being able to reach her through Canvas and it took 2 months to put my scantron exam grade in.

Aimee does not provide assignments that are of worth to your learning. She uses quizzes to test your baseline knowledge of course content w/o having you apply it to anything substantial until the case study assignments. These assignments have little to no feedback, the same feedback to all of her students that does not apply, and blank rubrics.

Aimee did a horrendous job at providing individual feedback. She would use blanket feedback that repeatedly stated the same thing- not sure she even read my assignments. I do not think I received a grade on any assignment within a reasonable timeframe. I genuinely hope that there are no further classes that I will be required to take from her.

Genuinely one of the worst professors here at CSU. I have had the hardest time getting a hold of her, and her responses are vague. It was like she didn't even read my emails. Her lectures are good, but the disorganization on Canvas kills the entire course. And there is little direction, and everything is so hard to find. Would never recommend it.

This is my second time taking Aimee and I can honestly say don't take her. Although you can pass by in her classes pretty easily, she genuinely is not helpful if you have any questions or concerns. Besides not being helpful she also is just rude when you try and get help. I have not met one person who liked her or felt they learned from her.

Aimee is my least favorite professor I have had so far at CSU. Every time I walked into her class I felt like I was entering the gates of hell. She does not allow you to view your overall grade on Canvas nor does she open modules prior to the week before. Overall very incompetent. But, if you are a charades fanatic, this is the class for you.

This professor was by far my least favorite this semester. The fact that she finally started putting in grades the Friday of FINALS week. Isn't that a little late? That's not all though, she tells us that she is neurodivergent at least four times every class. Good luck trying to email her, that's too much for her brain to handle.

Not respectful of students, no clear guidelines or assignment requirements.

has been posting notes for the wrong class. horrible and hard to reach

Dr. Walker is nearly impossible to reach. Cancels class nearly every week. Unorganized

Horrible professor, should have never gone into teaching. No email policy but doesn't answer canvas or make her office hours easy to understand or well known. Literally so awful, pls take class with anyone else if you can

SO difficult. Not understanding or flexible. SO INCREDIBLY VAGUE!!!!!! will not explain for the life of her but can't reach her either. OH and usually no ta

Incredibly vague assignment instructions, and no way to reach her outside of class (wouldn't respond to emails, only hosted one office hour the entire semester). Didn't grade any assignments until finals week, so never knew how you were doing on these vague assignments, and had no time to correct it until it was too late. Clearly doesn't care.

Aimee is mean and backhanded to students. When I had a medical issue, she told me to text my mom in the hall—I'm an adult, I can handle my phone. She teaches half the HDFS classes, and I don't want her again. Her class is disorganized, repetitive, and boring. There's no outline, and I have no idea what we're even learning.

Aimee is a horrific professor. The class is horribly unstructured and teaches nothing. She makes you agree to a policy where you have to take anything un-class related outside. A girl in front of me was working on something else when Aimee went up to her and kept poking the girl and said had to take it outside, the girl told her off. An icon.

If you're looking for a class where you actually learn, look elsewhere. Aimee provides little to no actual instruction and expects students to figure things out. She won't take responsibility for her own lack of clear instruction, if you want a professor who teaches, I recommend avoiding her, but unfortunately, she teaches all of the HDFS classes.

Aimee is the worst prof at CSU. She just yaps the whole time and is very unclear on what she wants us to do. She gets angry and calls people out for being on their devices and when people are whispering (this is a 200+ lecture) I believe she just talks to hear herself talk. This class will piss you off and waste your time, dont take it.

She treats everyone like a child in class but grades so hard for no reason, and I didn't learn a single thing and I went to every class. She uses being neurodivergent as an excuse for literally everything: want to email her, don't even try; want to see what your grade was on an assignment, wait till the last couple weeks of the semester. DON'T TAKE

She is highly unstructured and confusing in her directions for assignments. She's never prepared (struggled to open an exam giving us 15 less minutes, doesn't open the module for the week until 2pm Monday). If you find a mistake it will take her 3-6 weeks to correct the error after you message her or approach her after class repeatedly (6 times).

Dr. Walker is hands down the most confusing and vague professor at CSU. She isn't clear on assignments, and tells you to do whatever you think is best, and then grades on an incredible difficult rubric (which she usually doesn't provide before the grading process). If you want to reach her via email, don't even bother. Avoid at all costs.

Aimee is one of my least favorite professors at CSU. Her instructions are always super unclear, and I never knew what was happening in her class, even when I attended. The lectures are boring and don't relate to the assignments. The only positive is that the tests are easy. Overall, I'd recommend taking a class with someone else if possible.

Aimee is by far the worst prof Ive ever had, she grades on spelling and aesthetics of an assignment instead of actual content, yells at you for talking or being on your phone in a 200 person lecture, and is extremely unclear with expectations. Ive wanted to be a teacher my whole life and she made me hate kids and want to switch my major to business

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. She is a tough grader and allows corrections, but never tells you what you did wrong and how to fix it. She says "you're on the right path" and that's it. She also never answers questions, and when you ask something, she refers to the rest of the class to answer, as if we're all not confused. She also doesn't do emails.

Do not take Aimee if possible. I love the content discussed in 310 but she made it awful. I asked her to fix a grade that she incorrectly put in SIX times before it actually got changed. Content discussed is confusing majority of the time. Assignments are fairly easy overall, but if you can take someone else, do it.

She is impossible to set up a time to meet with if you have questions and doesn't explain thing well at all. I would not take her classes. She also doesn't put in grades until very last second.

Aimee only makes this class accommodating for herself and not her students!!! Her TA grades assignments like they don't even communicate. When you reach out for help, it takes over a month to get an answer. Aimee is insanely sarcastic when students ask for help or do not know the answer even though her lectures provide zero impact or information.

The only reason the course was difficult is because she was so disorganized it was impossible to know what she wanted. At the beginning of the semester she told us slideshows would be posted, but there were multiple slideshows that were never posted despite people telling her. The final covered the entire semester with no time for review. NOT a fan

DO NOT TAKE HER IF YOU CAN AVOID IT!!!! The instructions she gives rarely make sense, and when you ask for clarification, she just reiterates what was said and gives no further explanation. She also treats her students like children despite them being in college. She is also very difficult to reach and only uses Microsoft Teams for communication.

I will NEVER take this professor again. She grades based on what she's feeling and not on the actual performance of the paper. She is so disorganized and the tests were a hot mess! Do NOT take her!!!

If I could give a 0 I would. Dr. Walker is the worst teacher I have had throughout my schooling career. She is rude, does not give clear instructions, and is simply just awful. I have had her for the last 3 semesters in different classes and I can confidently say if I were to compare all of my notes from these 3 classes they would all be the same.

She will not answer questions in class, even if the question applies to everyone; you have to schedule a meeting or come to her select few student support hours. She says she will respond via Teams in 48 hours, more like 5 days. Although you can redo assignments, you probably won't understand the comments they leave enough to fix your assignment.

I can say without a doubt this is the worst professor I have ever had. She makes students feel bad about asking questions and humiliates them when they do. It is highly frustrating that she is my only option for so many classes. I have already had to take three with her and I can confidentially say I have the same notes from all of them.

She just makes up whatever rules she wants in the moment. Unclear directions, deletes rubrics, assignments directions are a riddle. In the beginning, she used a sign-in sheet on paper. Then, she switched to iClicker. In which if you had issues with logging in, instead of marking you present for attendance, she makes you use extra credit. Like, wha?

If I could give this class a 0 I would. Aimee Walker is a horrible teacher, extremely passive aggressive and almost impossible to reach outside of class. She told us that to be a good parent, you have to ASK your toddler if it's okay to change their diaper. I have so much more to say and I would if there wasn't a word limit. AVOID HER IF U CAN

Terrible professor. No compassion—ignored my hospitalizations and told the SDC it was my problem. Grading is vague, assignments make no sense, and she rambles off-topic. Doesn't respond to students and uses “neurodivergency” as an excuse. Avoid her if you value your GPA or sanity.

She grades harshly without a rubric or clear instructions, making it hard to meet expectations. She's behind on grading—midterms still aren't returned—and sometimes posts grades after revision deadlines. Her teaching lacks structure, and she struggles to clearly explain assignments. Overall, she is disorganized and ineffective.

Please do not take this class unless you absolutely have to. Aimee is so so unclear about what she wants for assignments, the grading is so harsh for the simplicity of the assignments. Assignments will not be graded for months, and the feedback is copied and pasted for everyone; everyone gets the same feedback. Talking to her is a genuine pain.

Absolutely avoid taking Aimee. She never has clear instructions on any of her assignments, never has a rubric for them and speaks out her frustration on how we don't follow her guidelines when there aren't any provided. Feedback is also copy and paste among everyone in the class, none of it is individualized for your benefit.

Worst professor I have ever had. She doesn't allow emails, offers no support, and shows little compassion. She often shames students for confusion and uses being neurodivergent as an excuse for unprofessional behavior. The class lacked clarity, empathy, and respect. An extremely hard grader for simple assignments. Would not recommend.

wow... she and her TAs are actually the worst people to ever walk the HDFS department.

Actually, so condescending and by far one of the worst professors I've had. Doesn't provide rubrics and grades very harshly but that might be on the TA. Most ECE and HDFS students will have to take her so just mentally prepare you will be doing everything by yourself and not given any support.

This professor seems deeply unsatisfied with her own life and seems to take it out on her students. She belittles her students and is nearly impossible to reach. I would suggest finding another teacher if you can

Honestly, the worst professor I've ever had. She tends to single out students and comes across as condescending and self righteous. Class time is frequently used for activities that feel unproductive, such as walking up and down the sidewalk discussing weekly takeaways, rather than focusing on the course material. Avoid her if you can.

Unorganized and unclear with her assignments even with in-class explanations. Extremely tough grader that will not give you adequate feedback, and she will take months to grade a single assignment. Blames everything on her neurodivergency while failing to recognize other students concerns, and belittles students out that disagree with her.

Please, please, please do not take this class with her if you can help it. She is horrible at communication and does not let you email her (hello?????) because she's neurodivergent. Her lectures were not engaging, and I got nothing out of this class. worst professor I've had so far.

Good luck. She sucks. Assignments are very confusing, instructions are unclear, and the assignments are graded too harshly. Very disorganized and so unreachable, it's insane. Takes forever to grade assignments. She's very condescending and her GTA sucks too. Literally a horrible professor. I had to take the L for this class, unfortunately.

She was so so so awful. She came off as a nice woman but as the year went on she became condescending, and won't help you unless it's convenient for her due to her "neurodivergent mind". If you do take her class, ARGUE ARGUE ARGUE until you win against her. that is my only advice.

This teacher is incredibly strict with grading, but doesn't even grade herself—the TA does. She's rude when students ask questions and just tells everyone to “read the syllabus” instead of helping. The class feels discouraging and unwelcoming. Definitely would not recommend.

DO NOT TAKE THIS COURSE. Genuinely the worst professor I have ever had, extremely passive aggressive and not helpful what so ever when questions come up. Grades extremely harshly and rubrics don't line up with comments on the assignment.

She was condescending. AVOID this professor. If you ask a question she will belittle you. The class is very disorganized, not engaging. The few large assignments you have will not be graded in a timely manner, the criteria is not clear. Believe all the bad reviews, I agree with them. I'm sure some will be removed but they are honest.

Extremely confusing class. No one ever really knew what Aimee wanted, but we got graded harshly anyway. It felt like we were just guessing the whole time. The GTA seemed caught in the middle. Aimee blames everything on being neurodivergent, but it's a poor excuse for being a bad professor. Wouldn't recommend.

Dr. Walker is a very unprofessional & disrespectful professor. Many things were unacceptable in her classroom but the thing that bothered me the most was the way she spoke to her students. She belittled them and had no patience. She is also inaccessible and her grading is completely arbitrary. If possible, avoid this professor at all costs.

The worst professor I have ever had. Coming to class everyday will feel like dragging nails on a chalkboard, no respect for her students questions, accomodations, or concerns. She expects you to adjust to her neurodivert needs (mentioned EVERY class) and never show a spec of willingness to help her students succeed. RUN RUN pick a new professor.

Not care abt your needs, unclear grading requirements, a horrible attitude every time a student ask for help, and no communication outside of class. She will not care if you are in the hospital all morning before class (almost passed out in the back) and she was rude and condescending just to cancel the next class because she had a sore throat.

all of the good scores are her TAs or the few students she accommodates to while the rest of us beg and plead with her, attending extra credit opportunities, working every single weekend past 3-4am to be met with a hostile and rude learning environment. do not take this professor there are 70+ 1 star reviews for a reason. runnnnnnnnnn!

I'm a senior and coming back to write this review because she was actually the worst professor I have ever had. Didn't even use email. Good luck

I have never had a conflict with Amy and received an A in her class, but her levt

had to leave another review bc im irritated. assignments suck and are so extra compared to the rambling she does in class that does very little to help with the assignment itself

i cant stand her or this class

Do not take a class with this professor, she grades unbelievably harsh, and does not make sense.

Nice person, not good teacher. Her lectures make no sense and confuse me more than they help me. Only cares about APA and is not help with how she would like you to do assignments. Very dismissive when you have questions or ask for any kind of help. Her assignments are unclear and don't feel neccessary to what we are learning in any way.

While this class appears to be about infant and child development, do not be deceived. The only thing that actually matters in this class is your ability to pick up on the niche intricacies of APA format. Or rather not real APA format, but Professor Walker's own personal version of APA format that seems to ebb and flow with whatever is convenient.

Gives terrible and poorly worded feedback, then docks you points on her mistakes. She takes forever to grade assignments but expects us to use her feedback. She is very strict on APA and not the actual content of the assignments.

Don't waste your time taking this class. Aimee and her TA are so confusing, condescending, and rude, nothing is clear and I can confidently say I've learned nothing so far this semester. I'm counting down the days for this to be over.

Aimee is just really challenging to learn from. She's a nice lady when she's in a good mood but she's very sensitive, you never know what you're gonna get. This class often feels like a waste of time and I wish I could say I was learning more, especially since this is my major. And everyone is clueless as to what we're supposed to be learning

Aimee is the worst. Do not take this class, believe the reviews and thank yourself later.

She is the worst teacher in the world. She is completely rude and doesn't even grade her own assignments. Then after the day before the semester ends she will give you a zero on a assignment that is worth 100 points. This assignment was already graded from the student aid had a B. There is no way to correct it. She does this intentionally.

The absolute worst professor ever.

I would not call Aimee a competent professor. She refuses to communicate through email, gets visibly offended+upset in class when a student makes constructive feedback.

believe these reviews; aimee lacks thorough communication on her assignment guidelines and expectations, and expects every student to know exactly what she wants. i received a 0 on a 100 point assignment purely for "plagiarism" and i have to speak with the student resolution center. avoid at all costs!

have had her a million times and this is by far the worst one.

She is very unreasonable and graded very harsh and at times her grading doesn't make sense nor are her expectations for assignments. She doesn't make things clear of what she wants and doesn't want. Highly do not recommend

Released final grades 24 hours before due, just to give half the class 0s on the final project, a 100 point assignment we had been working on the entire semester. Portions of the project were due periodically thru the semester, and most of class had good grades leading up to final submission. Gave 0s & filed for "plagiarism reports" out of nowhere

worst class and professor i have ever encountered

everything everyone below me said!!!!!! had a 95 leading up to final grades being posted and dropped to a C less than 24 hours before grades were due to the university. she had plenty of time to address any concerns she had with me BEFORE NOW. accused of plagiarism on final draft project but got 100% on my draft submission and all A's prior to this

WHAT THE HECKKKKKKKK ABSOLUTELY NOT

crying over thinking about this professor and class.

I am so frustrated she is VERY VERY VERY difficult. this is by far the only class i have ever taken where every person in the class collectively shares these feelings and anger (genuinely cannot think of one person who finds her easy to work with)

absolutely maddening to be paying for these courses

She makes learning very difficult

False accusations of plagiarism, very harsh with grading.

Do not take this class I am crying my eyes out. I had a 95% and she posted our final at 10pm before grades were due and reported me for plagiarism for not citing correctly and formatting issues. She is the most unorganized and unethical person I have ever met. Not to mention all prior assignments I was given A's on that were on the final.

Gave me a zero on the final the night before grades were due and reported me for academic dishonesty. Met with her in the moring and she said if I fight the report it could end up on my academic record and look bad when applying to grad school. I had a 96% before and this dropped me to a C+. I'm also a senior and never had this issue before.

Reported half my classmates including myself for academic dishonesty and incorrect usage of APA. I advise against taking any classes with her, she will not teach you course content.

She did not grade any assignments all semester. She does not answer emails and is condescending to students. I felt extremely confused about my grade and misguided on assignments throughout the semester. She has her own APA format.
