TBH when I first started the class I did not like Andrea. She assigned way more homework than my first instructor, and she has a strict late homework policy. However after being in the class a few weeks I realized the extra rigor really helped me learn. Andrea's CNT160 class is what ultimately helped me pass my ICND1 exam. I highly recommend her!

Andrea is one of the most knowledgeable instructors I have had in my academic career. The amount of Cisco material is quite cumbersome, but rarely would she not have an answer to any question. She ensures that the material is explained in a clear and concise manner, and will reiterate if it is not understood. I highly recommend any of her courses.

Andrea is an amazing professor! She truly cares about her students and is willing to assist. However, she will hold you accountable. She provides clear expectations of the material and there's a lot of homework because there's lots to learn to build that networking foundation. She is straightforward so you must be prepared for class and discussions

Teaching style is good as it's more student lead and participation by students is key to your success. Generally don't expect to leave early and she always wants to use the whole class period to go over topics and any questions you might have.

Andrea is very intelligent and personable instructor. She has vast knowledge with hands on experience to be able to explain scenarios we would encounter when we were talking about a particular subject. She understands the IT world and what it takes to succeed. I so whole heartedly recommend her in any and ALL the classes she teaches.

Professor Schauer is great. She really cares whether or not you are grasping the material, and does everything in her power to help you "get it." There is, however, A LOT of course work. If you want to do well in this class you need to be able to devote the time to do so. BUT, the course work is NOT Busy work, it all has a point and purpose.

Professor Schauer is a fantastic teacher and really gets you ready for the real world. She is not afraid to call you out but she means it in the best ways possible as she is doing a great job in preparing you for the CCNA exam. Her enthusiasm for the subject is unmatched and she wants the best for her students.

CNT140AB is a great introductory course into Networking Administration. This course is very content heavy and fast paced, but professor Schauer makes sure students are understanding the material and is flexible with most assignment due dates. The course provides great hands on experience & plenty of tutoring opportunities. Great course overall!

There are a lot of IT classes, but there aren't many that are quite like the ones at GCC. The use of actual cisco equipment prepares you with real life skills and makes you familiar with devices that you'll be using in your career. On top of that, she is a strong advocate for her student's success and will work with you if you work with her.

Andrea Schauer's CNT 150 course was amazing! She's a dedicated educator who brings Networking to life. Andrea's passion and flexibility makes learning enjoyable. Andrea has high expectations so be prepared to have an engaging class session and don't show up to class not knowing the material! Overall a great course that prepares you for the CCNA.

I love Andrea's classes. I started my college education not knowing a thing about networking, but now am comfortable setting up topologies and building my networks. She helped me fall in love with networking and my education, take these classes with her if possible, she is the best and so knowledgeable.

Extraordinarily knowledgeable professor that is able to teach lecture in a disgustable and interesting manner. Very hands on with labs that directly implement everything taught from the lecture and easily shows the practicality of the course material. Fairly heavy workload/note taking and lecture length. Would happily take more classes with her.

Online class is not handled by her at all. Assignments are also not graded by her but instead by another instructor Chris Jones. Course layout in the first couple weeks was a mess. Navigating the course was not easy. Expect weekly assignments and constant participation weekly in a discussion board. Expect weekly reading.

Andrea is a very kind and helpful teacher. I like how she makes many videos to help with her online classes. There were a few times when I felt overwhelmed and did not get the course material, but Andrea hopped on a video call and worked with me so that I could get it. I would definitely recommend her to anyone going to school.
