Avoid this class if you're not an accounting major. In fact, avoid this class if you want to learn anything at all. Lectures consisted of her re-reading material from text. When asked questions by class, she would reply that the answers were in the textbook. No lie.

Cherie was not enthusiastic about the subject. She made this class boring. Her teachings were bad. When she asked the class a question, no one could answer it because they don't understand what she's teaching. She gives pop quizzes every week too. She told me personally that she rather teach the upper division too. DON'T take her!

The worst! Got a D in her class, then re-took it next term and got a B+ and learned twice as much from a different professor. Acts bothered by questions, which is amazing since she's a PROFESSOR!

This is by far the worst class I have ever taken at PSU. The average grade for the first test was a 62% and she said that was not bad? Her tests a hard and the class is extremely boring. She seems very uninterested in what she is teaching, and when you asked her questions she acts frusturated. DON'T TAKE HER!

Don't take this class from her!!! She is unnecessarily hard and her tests are ridiculous!

Hard class - the book wasn't helpful and neither was she. Half the time I didn't know what she was talking about. I got an okay grade in her class but I worked my butt off in her class. I would definitely suggest taking this class from someone else. Most of the class did poorly as well.

This class was the worst class I have ever taken at PSU. She is a horrible teacher. I had a 4.0 overall until her class. She gets made when you ask questions. Please do not take her class!!!

She only has three grades: Two midterms and a Final. Each one is a third. No homework. No participation. No extra credit. How you do on the test is _it_. She's boring, prattles on, puts you to sleep, uses overheads in a huge room (not the provided computer with projector!) and simply is one of the worst teachers I've ever had.

I got the worst grade I ever had in this class, which is D. I don't like her teaching style at all. She doesn?t lecture in class. She just does different problems. I am very passionate about accounting and wasn?t afraid to get lower grade, but that was too much. This class just messed up my GPA. The worst thing that she is the only one, I think, wh

I had a 4.0 until this class. I would urge everyone in the strongest possible terms: DO NOT take Francicso! First, she doesn't actually teach anything, it is only examples (problems) from the book. No theory, no deep understanding of concepts are presented, no helpful insights, no explanations. Nothing. Find someone else to take 382 from! Trust me!

She knows accounting inside and out but lacks the ability to teach it. DO Not take this class. I'm a straight A Student and I'm not doing well...

Stay away from this teacher! Her classes are intolerably hard. I'm usually an A student, yet got a D+ even though I worked harder in this class than I've ever worked in any class I've ever taken. Her tests always have trick questions in them and always include something that was in the book but not covered in class.

This accounting class seems to be 300 level class. She doesn't have the ability to teach. She knows a lot accounting but it is not very patient. She responds questions and emails but her test are complex multiple choice.

Do not take Francisco. She only does the problems from the book. She doesn't lecture much on the concepts. The way she words the questions on tests and quizzes is confusing. She's always serious and boring. I made a mistake taking her class.

I attended one night of her class then I dropped the course. I really wanted to take the class but she was such a b*tch! She was visibly annoyed that we had not already studied the first two chapters - before the course had begun! I was already behind by about four chapters - on the first night of class! And all she did was textbook problems.

This class is very difficult, and she does not help you understand it very well. Most of the learning will be done on your own. It's hard to ask questions in class, but make sure she answers them for you. (I just yell out my questions in class.) Attendance is mandatory due to pop quizzes, which make the class ore stressful than it needs to be.

Beware of the pop quizzes! Cherie makes this class terribly hard to understand and offers little help. Her lectures correspond little with the tests. She pretty much just does problems from the book on the board and expects you to understand. I agree that her class will sink your GPA! AVOID IF POSSIBLE!

I like Cherie! Its no doubt that she is very knowledgeable in accounting. However, I put a good amount of time into the class just like 381 and 382 but I am receiving a much lower grade. I guess I need a teacher to explain the materials well to be able to do well! If you are good at studying by yourself, then she's be an okay teacher for you.

I like Cherie. Its no doubt that she is very knowledgeable in accounting. However, I put in the same amount of time into this class as 381 and 382 but I'm receiving a much lower grade. There are less chapters to study and I wonder why I'm not doing so well. I guess I need a teacher that explains the material well like Elizabeth or Donna.

Cheri is one of the worst teachers I have taken from PSU. Her teaching consists of reading and working problems directly from the book. Her study guides are a joke. I showed a CPA I work with some of her exam questions and he thought they were ludicrous and poorly worded. Avoid at all costs if you want a teacher who will actually teach.

Avoid taking a class with this teacher if possible. Yes, all accounting classes are hard, but she makes it even more difficult. She just does problems from the book (which we already have the answers to!)without really going into depth about the material. Class gets dismissed early all the time which is highly unusual for an accounting class.

I actually changed majors as a direct result of her class, don't take her for any reason. If she is the only instructor available, wait a term, you will be glad you did.

strict and mean

300 level Accounting classes are tough no matter which prof you take them from, there is a very large amount of work and time you have to put in regardless of the prof, however, Cheri visibly does not like to teach. I felt at times she got off on making students feel stupid for asking a question. She moves very fast, doesn't explain concepts.

Announced to the entire class: "Hopefully this next test will bring down the class average." The class average was 77%. She really does seem to have it out for all of her students. If you're a self-sufficient student, you'll do fine. If you need a teacher to actually teach, then I suggest finding a better professor.

To start off i understand she has been rated rather poorly. However,lets face it this is college,and the hard fact of life is that we shouldn't be expecting to get a free/easy ride through college. As a student we have our own responsibility to maintain our own grades through hardwork. conclusion,she's old school do her work & read up before class.

I was hoping the negative comments here weren't true. They are. She's nice, but fails to prepare you for her exams which are extremely difficult and don't follow the textbook. She did tell us she hopes the average is lower on exam 2 to give a grade curve. No teacher should say that. Read, do homework, repeat 3x and you might do well.. or GPA drops.

She is old school and doesn't explain the concept in detail. Lectures are boring. avoid her.

Accounting is tough in general, but she doesn't help make it any easier. You basically have to teach yourself the material prior to the class lectures as she doesn't like questions. I had to withdraw from her class a few weeks before the term ended, as my grade was too low, but I retook it with another professor the following term and got a B+.

Shes the hardest teacher I had in accounting. Ridiculous when it comes to grading. She is sort of evil, and I think she likes it.
