I dont have her, but from the sh*t that i see my friends go thru, i decided to come to this site to rate her

she looks like a red haired penguin with a white spot on her head, hws are 5 page papers and exams are ridiculously hard, this class is a waste of time and she makes it harder than it has to be. for a speech class we dont talk at all!

Horrible. Take Sugrue.

Must take professor boring but easy great class to take a nap or do other work talks whole time doesnt care about participation or attendance gives only 2 papers and a final group presentation no need to buy books although gives lots of reading assignments no real need to read them to do the papers.

Avoid her, unless of course you enjoy philosophy. The class was ridiculously boring, and she just talks on and on about the most absurd things, open ended and doesn't clearly give answers to questions. She gives the generic answers that will basically not help you on an exam/essay. Her class was about as much fun as paint drying. Tough grader too.

Ok, so she's terrible, and very stingy and picky. For all those raters who thought she was nice, or fair, they obviously haven't had a normal professor. She's only nice if you go out of your way to impress her, or talk to her after class. Doing the work, and answering questions isn't enough, she cares about participation, i thought this way college

Had her for ethics, has a sign in sheet. Class is boring as hell. For anyone who thinks shes "intelligent", consider the fact that she thinks you can convert lead to gold. Exams are pretty straight forward, take notes and pay attention, understand her barely understandable work sheet, and you're golden. Oh, and try to read prior, she asks questions

I have her this semester, her theology papers are ridiculous. She asks us too much for a 1000c class. She doesnt take attendance, and rambles on about anything. SHe is a hard grader too. IF YOU CAN AVOID YOU SHOULD!!

Cool person would be fun to hang with doesnt maker her a good teacher, PHI is hard enough without havin a teacher who rambles off topic. Talks fast notes are all in ramble form not very helpful because she's in her own world, midterm is a take home and final is in class test r not hard you just dont feel very prepared, I wouldnt take her again.

One of the worst classes I've ever taken. Take your laptop! She lectures for the whole class, non stop. She expects you to read the book, which is hard to grasp, every week. Only 3 essays, a paper, a midterm and a final. She grades essays harshly, so write carefully. A lot of memorization and reading involved, too much for a 1000C class. Avoid her!

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! Terrible teacher, doesn't care about this job always late and sometimes doesn't show up. Only 3 papers and 2 tests but she will make your class feel like its 5 hours. Only showed up on time once when she had a special guest.

Honestly the worst teacher I've ever had. Extremely rude and condescending with strong opinions and no open mind. The class itself was not very hard but the professor herself is terrible. Most of class time is spent on her ranting about her life and thinking she's funny while making the students uncomfortable. Very little time spent on material.

Avoid this professor at ALL COSTS.

I had a great interest in Philosophy and philosophers, she stole that. It was never a discussion nor opportunity to learn, just awkward references to the unexplained. Reading was forced like drinking through a full on fire hose to the face. No discussion when your always wrong and VERY condescending. Your a educator not dictator.

Prejudiced, just reiterate what she has to say and don't express your own opinions otherwise she'll yell at you

She is so unclear about everything. Would always have us get into groups, discuss and then get in front of class. GO to midterm and final review sessions as she reviews exactly what will be on the final. Try and get your paper in early so she can give feed back before it is due, it will help. She's strange and makes jokes that no one laughs at

Disrespectful and opinionated. Spends lectures getting off topic and not discussing what you need to know. Only likes you if you suck up to her. If you're not that type of student... DO NOT TAKE HER! You will not do well. If you absolutely need the credits, pass/fail this course.

She makes no sense. I don't just mean her assignments, I mean when she teaches. She goes on and on about herself, her music, randomly says words in other languages I guess to impress you? The amount of actual teaching compared to her self love is just sad. Very nearly ruined philosophy for me, but then I realized she wasn't actually teaching any.

I passed her class and all I remember was that she was not a good professor

Expects students to read 6-8 primary sources and understand them every three days. Very confusing lectures and very cringey person overall. I took biomedical ethics and none of the philosophical background we learned had much to do with anything with modern issues. To do well, read the summaries of HW, review the miderm/final packet she gives.

Don't even bother with this class. 100% a waste on your money. Her teaching methods are awful and her exams are the pettiest thing I have ever seen.

Had her 1st semester freshman year horrible prof. Lectures are just about philosophers' views from book no actual discussion of the material. 3 papers require to cite from textbook, which readings are hard to understand. Tough grader gets upset when you don't agree with her or your views on the papers don't align with hers. Don't take.

she is terrible, if you don't agree with her views she will grade you more harshly and not let you speak. She will cut you off and always has the last word. she LOVES to talk and doesn't discuss the material. Just talks about it with no opportunity for debate. don't take it.

AVOID. She literally said philosophy is more important than orgo or bio, and rambles about her music and brags about her residency or something (which no one cares about). She is very approachable, but extremely rude. Very condescending in her emails when you ask for help, and roasts students on her fb account. Avoid at all costs.

DO NOT TAKE HER! AVOID HER AT ALL COSTS! She thinks her class is more important than orgo and as a pharm major I can guarantee you that it is not. If you ask her a question she will give you a nasty attitude and treat you like you're dumb. She also likes to talk poorly about her students on her facebook statuses. Do yourself a favor and don't take.

Extremely unprofessional professor. Honestly do not know how she was approved to teach by the university as an ADJUNCT. She takes classroom matters and publicizes them on Facebook, where others also chime in and add their input-- making students feel incompetent as learners in an academic discourse environment. Avoid.

Don't take the class. She is obsessed with the textbook, which is very confusing, and the essay questions she gives are hard to write full papers on. Study the review sheets and you will be fine for the midterm and final

A lot of reading and shes rude if you don't know what your talking about. her midterm and final are so easy surprisingly. Her papers are grader harshly but you can get an A if you work

Avoid taking this professor at all costs! All she does is rip on her students and thinks the world revolves around her and actually curses at her students. She has a very arrogant attitude and she posts about her students on facebook. She expects you to read about 60 pages and know all the information in a week.

She is the most unprofessional professor ever. She has a poor attitude and is very snappy, anything you say she will try to embarrass you. There are 4 papers in total including the research paper which is 7-10 pgs long. Textbook needed 100% and lots of group work. I could go on and on about her..AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! I warned yall..

TERRIBLE! So unprofessional and RUDE. Not considerate of anyone's time or personal issues. We did the same thing every single day. Individually, sit there and listen to her talk for 2 hours. If you ask a question, she will embarrass you. OBSESSED w/ the tb. We had to read 200pgs a week. We did group work 4x the whole semester. PLS AVOID HER!

I selected the hilarious tab because she is HILARIOUSLY bad at her job!! She is very RUDE to her students, and she makes me feel like the little coward that my high school bullies made me feel like for the last 4 years! I thought I finally escaped them by coming here, BUT I DIDN'T!!! I have cried myself to sleep for the last 2 weeks b/c of her:(

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS! I tried to give her the benefit of the doubt but I couldn't handle it and dropped it. She lectures and rambles, yet she says nothing useful or worth remembering and then expects you to write a paper on it. She expects you to learn the material by reading hundreds of pages from the textbooks. Avoid her at all costs!!

I am unfortunately taking her right now, and I don't think I can emphasize this enough, DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS. She is extremely condescending and intense. She wants all of her papers printed out and she will not accept papers any other way. Every time I had the misfortune of speaking to her, she was extremely rude.

Extremely tough grader when it comes to papers and tests/quizzes--will not give you partial credit on tests and papers that require you to use quotes from at least 3 different assigned texts. Lectures are unstructured and unorganized--no PowerPoint/Google Slides. Highly recommend either dropping or withdrawing from this class.

This person is the definition of inconsiderate. She has made advances toward me in class acting very unprofessional. The fact that she is still employed at this institution is more remarkable than me fantasizing about getting an A in this class. She assigns over 200 hundred pages of reading every week.

awful. This is the only review of a professor i have ever written. probably my last. but this one felt necessary. Really, really horrible, rude, calls students out, half the class stopped showing up midway through the semester. She missed about 8 classes which also was not helpful for anyone. Surely theres a middle school teacher more qualified

This was a required course for me and the professor was the only available one left. All she does for the duration of the class (3 hours) is talk. She expects you to know the material before she even teaches it and if you don't she makes you feel dumb. Good luck if you don't buy the textbook because that's the only thing she uses to teach.

idk why anyone would give her a 5 star review she's actually terrible and needs to get her teaching license revoked. run as fast as possible when you see her name on UIS. you will not learn a single thing trust me.

Lots of reading due every week from the textbook. You will be lost if you don't read and you won't be able to participate. You're expected to bring the book every class which is tough for commuters. The 3 hour lecture is boring. She demands a lot for a 1000 course. Her review sheets are very indicative of what's on the exam so use them to study.

Gossips abt students on Facebook. Even if you ask a simple question, she will post. No matter what you do, expect excessive bullying. Very small class; they will know your grades. Enjoys failing ppl & will loudly make a rude comment if you pass. Will always find a mistake. Berated a girl for looking happy until she cried. Bullying is not teaching!

spawn of satan don't take her.

Try your best to steer clear of her. I got lucky and managed to pass with an A but she can be very condescending and judgy when you're not familiar with certain concepts. She gossips about her classes on her Facebook if even one thing doesn't go right. Gives you a zero if you miss even one requirement on a paper (There's 4 papers total + a final)

Yeah just incase you were wondering, the reviews about her facebook aren't a joke. You can even look up her facebook right now and I'd guarantee you'd find a post of her complaining about a class. She forgets we're adults and can see that. If the papers don't meet all the source requirements, (and i mean from her THREE TEXTBOOKS), automatic zero
