She is lecture heavy but not in a slide show or book reading kind of way. Her lectures are "off the wall" and she is very unclear in her directions in the class. Her assignments involve reading articles and answering questions but she is terrible at letting the student know what they need to know.

Very unclear on directions. Doesn't post grades in a timely manner. No slideshow notes all just her talking and she bounces all over the place. Tells you what homework you have as you walk out of class. Would not recommend

Most unorganized prof. I have ever had. Went almost the entire semester not knowing my grade. Wouldn't give guidelines for assignments unless specifically asked multiple times. Assigns homework at the end of class with no real explanation of what she wants done. Nice person, terrible teacher. You can get an A if you work for it.

signed up for her class it had her husbands name on it.. i looked him up and he had great ratings. I come into class extremely disappointed it was his wife. She is the messiest teacher I've had at WIU, her lectures bounce off the wall back and fourth, not clear on the homework she gives, shuts down ideas with a quick "Nope" and her voice is just..

She cares about the students a lot. Always gives out extra credit opportunities. No PowerPoint notes she just talks. Sometimes writes on chalk board. The books are needed. Homework is easy and most are readings from the book. Major assignment is the book review, its worth 100 points.

I actually had her for German, and she's the absolute worst. She expected us to know German already when it was literally elementary German. She's horrible, and wouldn't really care if we felt uncomfortable when she called on us in class and put us on the spot.

I really enjoyed her class. It was definently a lot of reading and outside work, but I learned a lot. She gave fair grades and acknowledged people who worked hard. She gave lots of opportunities for points. There was a lot of reading and quizzes but she usually went over all the material in class so there werent surprises.

She flunked my final after being in the emergency room during it. Would not let me make it up. Still got a B.

She isn't bad, if you engage in her lectures you will do fine. Have decent amount of homework but most you can do in class. She drops your lowest scores. Overall if you go to class and read the chapters you get a good grade.

Lots of homework

Professor Wilson may come off as harsh when you first meet her but she really is a sweetheart. It's a lot of in-class assignments so we barely had any homework and the homework was super easy. I enjoyed the lectures because she always related the work to our personal lives which helped us understand the terms. Definitely would take it again

I LOVED Professor Wilson's class. She gets to know every single one of her students and it just makes class more interesting. You do have to buy a textbook, which is used almost everyday in class. She also gives lots of opportunities for extra credit.

Prof Wilson can be scary at first but just show up and participate. She is so fun once she warms up to you. Do not be late to class and there are not many writing assignments to do. If you take decent notes you'll get an A. She is very understanding if something in life happens.

Professor Wilson can be intimidating at first, but she's actually really engaging once you get to know her. The workload is manageable, and tools like unstuck study made studying easier. Overall, it's a solid class if you put in the effort.
