She is very clear & you can tell that she has years of experience under her belt. Study for tests, paper & child studies, you'll be ok. I Got a B in her class!

If you wait last minute and turn things in late, you'll end up with a C or lower. She's nice but a little bit snooty sometimes.

I'm not a great study, and I studied 30 min the night before every test and got an A on every one. She gives so much EC so u have room to fail a test. I actually learned a lot and it was easy to pay attention because there was so much interesting and useful information. I highly recommend you take her for human dev. 10/10 recommend.

I consider myself to be about average as far as IQ goes and it was very easy to pass with an A+ You have 4 exams that make up the bulk of your grade, along with 3 papers and a group project (EASY). Prof also allows 50pts extra credit which is approx 13%! Over the entire semester, I spent maybe 15-20 hours outside of class studying/writing papers

I don't say this lightly, but this professor is one of the top 2 teachers I've ever had in my life. She is extremely intelligent as well as personable, and it makes each of her classes a joy to be in. I recommend her for all nursing perquisite classes, she teaches most of them.

Prof. Vance is the prime example of what all professors should be like and I mean that. I tell all my peers that I wish all professors were like her. Everything is straight forward. She tells you facts, gives you a study guide, and you are tested on those facts. Her class was easy, but I retained the information. Effective methods! Recommended!

Professor Vance expectations for each assignment can be real heavy. Be prepared to write ALOT! She does offer 1 extra credit video assignment. Why I gave her a 3 is because in her syllabus she states your allowed 2 extra child studies aside from the 2 assignments but that is false. She does not follow her own syllabus.

Professor Vance provides all the necessary resources to make your life easier. For HS19, you don't necessarily NEED to read the book. All the information you need to know is in her lectures, along with a study guide so that you know exactly what to focus on. Only negative is that her paragraph requirement is 10 sentences per. Otherwise, AMAZING!

I took this class online as a early-finish class. There were up to 2-4 lectures (each >30 min) assigned every week; around every 2-3 weeks a test. We had to do 2 child studies, & interview with a older & younger adults. Class was pretty straightforward and easy. Would def recommend Professor Vance. Only drawback is the lectures are pretty long.

Vance is a tough grader. It almost seems nitpicky when Vance gives feedback. For a nutrition class the work is a lot harder to understand than thought it would be. The course load is a lot and the book is required for only one assignment the whole class so it's pointless to buy. Do not recommend for FCS06

I took her class for spring of 2022. In life management, her classes changed me, it motivated me, for some coincidence her lectures always helped me deal with anything I went through and gave me the words I needed to hear. You didn't need to even go back sometimes to the notes because these lectures are like advice, they stick with you.
