Great teacher. The course was very straightforward. For the blended course, there was textbook reading and videos to watch followed by a short quiz before class each week. Highly recommend taking the course. No prior cooking experience is necessary. Just make sure to turn in assignments on time and not miss class.

Prof. Kelley is a really caring and considerate teacher. I loved this class (I really only took it to have an excuse to cook), and I really enjoyed it! If you do the online work before class and take the quiz, the cooking lab will be a breeze (so watch the demonstrations!!). Definitely take this even if you don't know how to cook.

I loved this class - the food we made was amazing and Allissa is super sweet! Pretty chill and fun environment to learn to cook in. At first I was nervous about the readings/videos we had to watch before each lab but it really wasn't too heavy of a workload, though it was more than I expected. I'd recommend both the class & taking it from Allissa!

Taking this class online with Prof. Kelley was pretty good. The grading for each sample you make is very clear on the rubric criteria, but it will really depend on your TA if they think you did it right or not. There's a quiz every week and things due about every wednesday and saturday. Not too bad, but deadlines are pretty strict.

This was such a great class and Allissa was such a great teacher. If you want to improve your sewing skills (experienced or not) I would highly recommend this class.

I took this course online. The lectures were straightforward and so easy to follow. Great class if you want to start sewing or advance your skills. You do have to buy your own material for projects. I put difficulty in the middle because there is a lot of memorizing you have to do! But Professor Kelley is amazing.

Due to the nature of the class, we only really heard from her from useful announcements. But she communicated quickly when you reached out. But the course layout was clear. Sadly the final practical was a little obtuse in how you turned it in but online classes are the way they are. Allissa is super sweet and understanding.

I think Professor Kelley is a great professor, however, this class was just hard. I took SFL 185R-005 online which I don't recommend unless you have a lot of time on your hands at home and sewing experience. She was great at responding via email and her TAs were wonderful. Her weekly announcements with spiritual thoughts were also appreciated.

The class was a lot of work and sometimes the projects were hard to figure out, but I am going to be able to use the skills I learned in this class the rest of my life! The professor was super nice and very helpful, she is easy to work with and made the class more enjoyable.

I took SFL 110 (food) and 185 (sewing). In both classes, you don't really hear much from her but when you do she's great. 110 was amazing! I had so much fun, TAKE IT! 185 was insane (it is set up to be the same for anyone teaching it) It's way too much work and you're graded harshly. (I knew how to sew but any other way than the BYU way is wrong.)

I took her beginner's sewing class online. There were prerecorded lectures, but whenever I needed help or had questions, she would response promptly and was very understanding and helpful! I learned a lot in the class and although there was a ton of homework, I'm so glad I took it! I have sewn a bit in the past, but I still learned a lot!

Basics in Clothing Construction is a challenging course with a lot of time spent on projects and samples. Such a great course. Because it was online, it could be difficult to figure out what to do and how to do it. Professor Kelley was willing to meet in person to go over questions, which I appreciated.

I loved this class. I learned so much that I will be able to use throughout my life. I took the online course and it made it so nice to be able to learn in my own kitchen. Follow the guidelines for the assignments and watch the lecture materials and it's an easy A. The exams come from the quizzes but beware they lock after you see the answers.

Allissa was great! I love cooking and this gave me the opportunity to learn more about food and how to cook well. The workload was a lot for spring term but I imagine it would be much easier to take as a semester class. However, I learned a lot and gained a lot of new cooking experiences!

I took this class during spring term, so it was a LOT of work in a short time but it was manageable. Overall, all the projects were easy and straight forward, and they had videos that showed how to make each project step by step. There was two midterms but there was a study guide provided that helped a lot.

I took SFL 185 online and it was a great class that helped me learn a lot that added onto the bit of sewing experience I had. There was a lot of homework that took more time than I liked. The class is set up with clear deadlines and good organization with help available.

I had Professor Kelley for an online class and I had a lot of fun! Being a semester term, it was also paced very fast and there was lots of homework each week. She is always open to helping out!

She is a great teacher but the class is formatted online which makes it a lot more difficult. She does a great job with a hard course! Expect a LOT of time spent outside of class.

Allissa is so amazing and nice, but I would highly recommend not taking this class unless you already know how to sew. It said it was for beginners but it is not. But I took it as a term class so a semester class would be better. The class was hard and I worked my bum off for a mediocre grade, but she was kind to meet with me to when I asked.

I really enjoyed her 185 sewing class. It was challenging because sewing clothes is new to me. However, they have really helpful step by step videos and pattern slides. The projects took me a lot of time, but grading was not harsh. The only down side was, the tests and quizzes were a little challenging. I would take from her again.

Professor Kelley made an online sewing class really easy to follow along to! Each week you'll had different projects/parts of a project to do but they come with written instructions written and instructional videos which are super helpful! I felt like the grading was totally fair and they offered really great feedback if you don't get 100%. 2 tests

This class is very difficult for people who have no past sewing experience, but it is doable. There are videos to follow along, but some of them are hard to follow and skip parts of the creation. This class is SO time consuming, so make sure you have tons of time set aside to get assignments done. Overall, I do think I learned a lot from this class

She is so sweet and remembers your name very early on. She actually cares about you. Very clear expectations, and labs are basically always full credit if you show up and don't blow up the kitchen. Take this class if you're bad at cooking.

The class is arranged in a way that makes it easy to learn. This class claims to be a beginner class but if you are going in with no prior knowledge the online course could be challenging.

online so I didn't have much interaction with her, but she always sent out motivational emails every week and when I did reach out for help she was very kind and helpful. This specific class was a lot of work and definitely not a class you should take if you want something easy, but you'll learn a lot about sewing and get to make fun projects!

Great and super nice! The workload is quite a lot and is very very tedious.

Overall I enjoyed this class. The professor is great, the canvas organization was not so great, but still manageable. 9/10 recommend.

Prepare to set aside many hours for this class. I love how much I have learned from this course, but it has been a major time commitment.

This class is very time consuming. I wish I knew that ahead of time. It is a lot of work for a beginners course and taking it online added to the difficulty. I will say I did learn a lot and felt proud of what I made.

I did not interact much with Professor Kelley, mostly with her TA. But the class is VERY time-consuming. I would definitely take it again because I learned so much about sewing but be prepared to spend many many hours sewing each week.

This class is VERY time consuming, but if you have a light course load I'd definitely recommend taking it as I learned so much. The TA's and the open sewing lab are so helpful, they made a huge difference in my experience.

This course was awesome! Professor Kelley was very helpful whenever I had a question or concern. I took the course fully online. It wasn't incredibly difficult, but it was very time consuming so make sure to stay on top of projects. The instructions for all of the projects were very thorough and clear!

The teacher is great at communicating and sending out weekly emails to remind you what is due that week. She also is quick at responding to emails. TAs are very easy graders so as long as you do the assignments you'll do well. Prepare yourself to do A LOT of sewing. And you do need to study for tests to do well on them.

Amazing class. Yes, lots of homework, but it's because there's a lot to learn about clothing construction. Professor Kelley was very understanding of an injury I had towards the end of the semester, and allowed me to turn in assignments after the due date because of this circumstance so I wouldn't drop out. I was able to finish strong.

Professor Kelley is so sweet! I took it as a blended course, so there's work online and one 2 hour lab a week. There was quite a bit of work for the online portion. Grading can be harsh at times and she's strict on sticking to the syllabus. Labs were fun and definitely where I learned the most, and you get one make-up for the whole semester.

Took this online...it was still lots of fun! I enjoyed opportunities to try new recipes. Reading and quiz each week. Cooking assignment each week. Grading can be harsh at times, but as long as you follow the instructions you'll be fine. Fun class! Very doable!

Prof Kelley is great! She is super kind, fun and knowledgeable! The class was so fun but I didn't really learn too many new skills (but I've been cooking my whole life). You do have to attend the weekly labs, missing even one will really mess with your grade. The reading is a lot so I started to skim and did just fine! She is great and I recommend!

Professor Kelley is amazing, she was so kind to me during this term. I needed a lot of help, and she quickly met with me to discuss options to help me pass her class. With a lot going on in my life at the moment, her kindness was so needed. That being said, her class is no joke, get ready to learn at double speed!

Taking this class during spring term is no joke - it goes quick! That being said, Professor Kelley was willing to work with me when I asked for help. The homework/sample assignments take a lot longer than you think they will. Some of the rubrics are a little unclear. The class was cool but time consuming. No complaints about Professor Kelley.

Super challenging class even if you think you have sewing experience but it will teach you a lot

This class is pretty chill. She's a tough grader and the readings are insanely long, but overall it's one of the easier classes I've taken. Just make sure you turn everything in on time and you'll get an A. Tests are just questions from the quizzes and super easy.

Took Basics of Clothing construction online with Professor Kelley. We didn't interact a lot, but she seemed like a good professor and provided a lot of resources for additional aid. Difficult class (15+ hours a week) but I learned a lot.

Overall, this class wasn't too bad. I actually loved learning, but make sure you have a machine or go to the lab! Some of the lectures were online and hard to understand, but the TAs are very helpful. Don't wait until the last minute to do the assignments, as they take a while and you need a sewing machine.

Professor Kelley is great and understanding! That being said this class is extremely time consuming especially if you take it in the spring or summer. Make sure you don't fall behind because the assignments pile up fast! If you can, I would recommend going to the lab because the TAs are a great help!

It's a lot of work but fun!

This class was so fun! It was blended, so we only met once a week to do the cooking lab. Professor Kelley is very caring and does her best to help students succeed. The TAs in this class were so sweet and helpful! as well. The weekly quizzes are sometimes challenging because of all the reading, but this class was amazing!

I loved this class! Professor Kelley was amazing, and the class was very well organized. I highly recommend taking this class if you want to learn how to sew, you learn so many techniques!

I truly loved the course Professor Kelly Taught, she did an awesome job, and graded fairly. It is a sewing class, and the rubric is clear and easy to follow.

I absolutely loved this class. It was my fav all semester. I did the online foods course and I genuinely feel more comfortable with cooking. It was one cooking assignment, reading and quiz each week which was very doable. I took videos of the quizzes and used those to help me study for the exams and I always did super well on them. Highly recommend

Professor Kelley was an amazing instructor! However, if you are going to take this course, know that it is a huge time commitment. We had three projects, in addition to many smaller samples, unit quizzes, and some discussion posts. You really do learn a lot, but I would recommend taking it in person, as the online lectures were confusing.

I have never met Professor Kelley as I took her online sewing class. This class was challenging and consumed a lot of time. The projects definitely force you to learn how to sew well fast. When we finished each part of the project, we had to take a video and show that we met each rubric criteria. It was nice to know what was expected of us.

I've never met Professor Kelley because I took her online sewing class. The class was fun but very time-consuming and kind of expensive. There was a lot of content to learn very quickly, but I felt like it was explained well, and I learned a lot.

This class is a lot of work, but I definitely learned a lot!

This professor is so sweet and this class taught me a lot of cool skills that I am excited to have and continue growing. This class was really hard for me though because it is SUCH a time commitment. Luckily the late policy is very forgiving and the professor and her TAs are very on top of it when it comes to feedback and grading.

Blended class, with reading and a test before class each week, SUPER easy class. Honestly really fun, labs were easy and the food was good, Ta's were fun and played music during class so it was a good environment. Would deff take again and an easy fun credit to do with friends.

She was awesome! I took this class online and loved it! It is super easy to get ahead! The assignments are chill and lowkey.

Class was super fun and easy to navigate! I was in the online section, and at times it was a little unclear what materials I would need for which week but other than that everything was straightforward. Its easy to get ahead if you want too.

This class is a ton of work and very time consuming. Professor Kelley is very responsive, and I learned a lot! I agree with some of the other student ratings that the online course needs better organization because the videos and assignment requirements were not always congruous, but Professor Kelley was great to work with when I noticed issues.

Took SFL 185 from Prof. Kelley online. At one point I had to restart my entire project and I emailed her about it and she was super nice and gave me an extension which was really helpful!

I enjoyed this course! It was definitely a lot of work. The material itself was easy enough to learn, but be ready to sew all the time. Because it was an online class, I didn't ever meet Professor Kelly in person, but she was responsive to email. I learned a lot from this class. If you really want to learn how to sew, take this class.

This course is largely put together by the sewing department and Professor Kelley is more of a steward than an instructor. She is super friendly and respectful, she answered a ton of my questions before the course began, and then when my TA didn't answer my email I ended up asking her the question and she was very clear and helpful.

Very down-to-earth and reasonable. The class had a predictable schedule that made it easy to plan ahead, and Professor Kelley had clear expectations. I honestly really liked this class. Except for the textbook- it kinda sucked but that's not her fault. The cooking assignments were so fun and low-key easy.

Allissa is great but the class was a waste of time. The textbook is useless and the labs are really long. I felt like I was back in high school taking a food class. The TA's were fine but not much of a help either and they graded things way too harshly. Attendance is also completely mandatory with little to no wiggle room if you miss a lab.

The labs were fun each week and there's only one quiz you have to do beforehand. It can be reading heavy, but if you're already familiar with food/cooking, you should be just fine and probably won't need to get the textbook.

Professor Kelley is so nice! You can tell she really cares about her students and she takes time every class to get to know each person. She was organized and helpful. The class was fun and pretty easy. Definitely take it if you are looking for a friendly environment. Worked in groups of about 4 the whole semester. No cooking experience needed.

I had the class online, so I appreciated how clear rubrics were! As long as you are on schedule, the class is one you can succeed in. Get ready to learn a lot! ;)

This class was super fun, and easy. Assignments and weekly lab instructions were clear, and easy to follow. Dr. Kelley was very kind and helpful, and easy to talk to. She and the TAs were always ready to help, and grading homework quickly. Exams were also super easy.
