She was my first teacher I had going in to Saddleback. She is a really good transition teacher from high school to college. Her lectures are clear, though she does sometimes talk fast, but if you listen it's easy. You print out the lecture notes before class and follow along while adding your own notes. She is ALWAYS willing to answer questions.
