i think she is really nice and her classes are interesting cause their not all the same she switches from lecture to movie to over head projector and it keeps things interesting.
she gives notes and tests are not similar she seems nice but gets you in the end.

first aid and cpr class. very good teacher.a lot of hands on training. 4 tests. just read book. all answers in book. great teacher
She's a nice woman but her tests are a little tricky. I got a C+ in the class and i am regulary an A student. She's also a stickler about attendance, lowers your grade if you miss class.
she talks so fast in class its hard to take nmotes. never writes any notes on the board. puts slides on a projector and then takes them off in 15 seconds, leaving no time to write. not very helpful after class. her TESTS ARE HARD. and she never misses a class
Horrible professor , DO NOT TAKE HER . DOES NOT NO HOW TO GRADE PAPERS AND GIVES TESTS THAT DO NOT EVEN MATCH WITH THE MATERIAL GIVEN IN CLASS. IN FACT THERE ARE NO NOTES IN CLASS AND SHE WILL FAIL YOU.
This teacher is very nice and funny... but, what she speaks about in classes isn't exactly what is on the tests. she says its all common sense but when it comes down to the test.. your become very confused.. I passed her class with a c .. I got a d on every test and a C on my 12 page paper.. I missed 2 classes and always participated in class..
this teacher is very nice and continuously states what you dont need to know and not what you need to know. Her tests are not as easy as she tells you they are going to be and your lucky if you pass them with a c. I worked hard in her class and was lucky enough to come out with a b-.
very nice lady..never writes on the board..test are harder than u think...kinda of boring but she tries to make it fun

Hey, you can't judge a teacher by just one comment.
very nice lady, and actually quite funny. you have to study for the tests in order to do well on them. but overall, a good class to take.
She's a pretty nice a person, but a horrible professor. I highly recommend you drop and find something else. She also teaches Human Sexuality. However, I did pass and you can survive. What others have said is 90% true. She also goes off on mini-rants about how the government doesn't regulate this or that. I wanted to ask if she attended Woodstock.
She is very nice and she makes the classes very interesting. She's an absolute sweetheart.
first off she speaks really weird, she is really boring she just regurgitates everything we basically already know about sex, exams are extremely easy never studied for any of them, i hate when she says "buttocks" and she is always saying how she is open but she seems more close-minded than idk what. not appropriate teacher for humansexualitycourse
terrible professor
She puts slides up for 10 seconds which makes it impossible to follow her during lectures. She seems really close minded teaching the course and isn't open to discussion if your going to disagree with her. She's not a good teacher but neither is Prof. Honey who is the only other Human Sex professor so either way your doomed.
She's a little wacky, but still very nice. She tries her hardest to answer all questions & does explain a lot of things. Sometimes she goes a little fast, but everything she covers is in the textbook.
Horrible. If she does not like you she will fail you in a diplomatic sweet way. Nasty, fustrated lady for an easy class.
We sped through everything because I took this class over the summer. During the Fall or Spring you should be fine. Loves to give out activity packets. Very enthusiastic teacher -- maybe a little too much. Definitely unique and energetic. Loves her Human Sexuality class more than her Health class. Overall just an okay class but I learned a lot.
probably one of the worst teachers i have ever had..gives you no notes at all and atleast 25% of what is on the test she does not go over
Worst professor I've had. Spends class repeating common knowledge and then tests on information we never covered. Tests include 4-5 chapters worth of info with no review or study guide. Ends class early but will not answer questions unless you see her in her office. Avoid her if possible.
Didn't like this class at all. Honestly, if you remember anything from your HS health classes, you shouldn't have any problems in this course. Don't bother purchasing the book, you won't need it. The tests are a joke and the project is ridiculous. Just horrible overall
Shes not as bad as ppl say. She does ramble a little sometimes, and her tests are hard, but shes funny and a nice lady who doesnt deserve the harsh criticsm. Just study the chapters she tells you to and you should get an A or B on the tests. The project is EASY and u have the whole semester to do it. Dont miss tests tho, there r no make ups!
Her train of thought is very hard to follow, she goes off on tangents. Makes same lame generalizations over and over again. Doesnt put slides up long enough to write down, just always says "this is in the book". tests harder than you would think, lots of stuff she didnt go over in class. dont try to ask her something not in the book, she wont know
good class. extremely nice teacher. good to talk to and shes very helpful and lenient. def recommend her
wow, this class is so boring and lame. prof. sorace is very nice but i hate health and she didnt make it interesting at all
the worst class ever. she doesnt care about helping you at all...she is boring, grades unfairly, doesnt give good reviews and her tests are ridiculous and stupid. i had perfect grades and a great GPA and she gave me a C in her class which ruined my gpa.. dont take this class with her
Worst Prof I have had at Middlesex. All of her test were suppose to be based off the books yet they weren't so I def don't recommend taking her. She makes a fun easy class hard, difficult, & boring. I wish I had taken a gym class instead!! She goes off subject to much and replies of tests for most of your grade.
she is teribble!! she grades very unfairly and she does not stick with the topic being taught!!! she rambles alot, her test is never anything that she rambles on in the class. And she marks you absent for being late twice !!!. Horrible Prof. Never Take her class. Her Project that she gives is just ridiclous!! she doesnt read the content!
i honestly think shes terrible!!!!!! she should not teach! makes no sense and i dont think i learned anything
I am an A student, until I took this class. This professor is not helpful, she lectures all day, most of the info is not on the tests, which are very hard even if you do study. There is no review for the test. She is unwilling to work with you, does not respond to emails if you try to reach out.
I found this class to be very interesting. Yea she does lecture, and if all you're going to do is sit in class and not listen/ask questions, you will do badly. I took general notes on what she said in class, read from the book (especially what she talks about in class), and got a B+. Work and you'll get the grade you want.
I'll tell the truth:This teacher comes in,talks for the whole time,tells us not to take notes cuz evrything is prsent in the book.In the end u don't have any notes for the outline and u hv to read the whole buk yrself:( She keeps on talking talking AND ONLY SHE TALKS,nt the class.She gives credit for listening 2 her the whole time.there4 I dropped.
PLEASE DO NOT TAKE HER, unless you can bear her speaking for 1hr 20 mins, meaning the whole class. Doesn't replies to the e-mails at all, that is what I hate the most. If you have any questions n you can contact on e-mail, NO REPLY. Doesn't even let u make notes in the class and says the everything is there in the book. BORINGG CLASS!!....:((
She speaks the entire class. I guess she doesn't get tired and I can't help but to count how many times she uses the works, "you Know." OMG i pass my 1 hour and 20 mins just counting U KNOW. haha She doesn't reply her emails.
Worst teacher ever. Unfortunately, you will have to take her, or the horrible Mr. Honey. If you have to choose. Choose her. She gives you the chance to write what you want. Her tests are hard because there is nothing on them that we learned in class, and she talks nonsense.
This professor is so horrible that i made an account just to rate her. All she does is ramble, on and on about stuff not related to the topic. She gives only three exams the whole semester, which are incredibly hard. You also have to be on time as soon as class starts because thats when she takes the attendance. Overall bad professor.
She talks for the whole class but you get credit for just being there. Her tests aren't really that hard. There's no homework, the grade consists of three tests and a research paper. It's an easy class if you show up and do good on tests and research paper.
She was overall not so bad of a teacher. She was very nice and friendly but she talked way too much about other topics and never really prepared the class for the test. It's pretty much a class where you have to read over the sections in the chapters to past the test.
DO NOT TAKE! The worst professor ! All she does is talk the whole time about pointless things. Her test are extremely hard and everything is from the textbook which, she doesn't cover any of the information in it . If you want to bring your GPA down , she will do just that.
HORRIBLE TEACHER !! there are only 2 health teachers but she is the worst !!! doesn't remind you of any work that is due, confusing work that she does NOTT want to go over with you, doesn't want to answer questions and her tests have nothing to do with the review sheets. SHE DOES NOT CARE TO FAIL YOU , JUST TERRIBLE & LAZY !!!!
the worst teacher, DO NOT TAKE !! your better off taking gym, I wish I did. she does not care about you especially if you don't understand something. she literally says "I don't have time to answer any questions in class, come to my office at 8am." REDICULOUS !!!
Terrible teacher. Rambles about nothing. Lectures are useless. Tests cover everything except what she teaches. Grades exams and projects unfairly. Very easy to fail do NOT take this class. And she likes to cancel class the day before a test so don't expect a review. She's not helpful at all and doesn't care about stusents. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
Very mean and cold hearted. Doesnt care about students and she will fail you. Unintelligent. Rambles about useless info that has nothing to do with her impossible quizzes.
I can't believe my displeasure for the grade I received. I got an A in all my other classes which were all relative to my major. She just rambles on about things that aren't on the book and won't end up being on the test. She is a terrible teacher and grades completely unfairly. This is going to be the reason I can't transfer to a choice school.
She makes it painfully obvious that she is not interested in the concerns of her students. She was very unclear and confusing. Anytime questions were asked she would say "i'm not really sure" or "I cant answer that now, come to my office hours" Test were hard and lectures were useless. However, if you give it your best, you'll pass.
If you do the project will pass.. Doesn't teach what's in the exam.,
Teacher is so confusing. Not clear on what she wants you to do. She isnt willing to help you either
She lets your know from the beginning that you need the textbook-its for a reason! As long as you attend classes (on time),participate,take notes,and read the chapters-you will do fine.Tip: You should definitely read after her lectures and things will stick. Everything she discusses is all in the text! Not to mention she is very funny. Great Class

This teacher is the typical old school teacher who doesn't know how to upload grades. Her lectures are long and about basic sex ed that I've learned in HS, yet she grades tough. Her tests are multiple choice and seem opinion based but are actually not. She only gives 4 assignments that matter, if you do poorly on 1 or 2 then you'll prob fail.
DON'T take this professor. Her whole class consists of her talking and speeding through power points. She doesn't let you take notes and says everything is in the textbook, then whats the point of making slides? She doesn't talk and will fail every test and paper then not answer emails when you ask for help. HORRIBLE
Lectures are useless. The slides she presents are useless. They're either in really small print or she switches them before anyone has a chance to write anything down. It's pretty blatant that she does not care about her students. Test are unnecessarily hard. She rambles more than she actually teaches. Have a question? It's in your book.
She will repeat herself often but is all around an amazing teacher. Her lectures are funny and will keep you focused. No homework. Easy Tests. Easy A. If you have a question after class she's always happy to answer the questions and take the time to help you.
One of the worst honestly. She grades based off of very few assignments and the 3 test she assigns has nothing to do with the notes you have taken. Missing class will leave you lost but attending will drain all your energy. Very davy lectures, goes to fast and doesn't seem to care about her students success.
literally the worse professor I've ever had at Middlesex by far. Her tests have nothing to do with the notes and when you ask for help her only answer is "its in the book". her lectures are long and boring, she doesnt even give you time to copy down notes. worse professor ever, would never recommend to anyone. shes TERRIBLE DO NOT TAKE
Honestly take someone else if you can. I am a straight A student and got a C in the class. The lectures are not helpful for the tests at all. She flys through the slides and says not to write anything down because it's in the book. She also tells you that something won't be on the test and then she puts it on there anyway.
Worst. Professor. EVER. You would think that taking a health class would be a GPA booster, but not with Professor Sorace. She lectures about topics that she says are in the textbook, but they're not. She has absolutely no idea what she is teaching! DO NOT TAKE HER! SAVE YOUR GPA!
She plays favorites and doesn't teach what's on the test. You learn more from reading the textbook then from her class. Besides tests there's only one major project which is a paper. She's super picky about it and if you fail the paper you can't do an oral report which together total as 15% of your grade. She doesn't allow makeups.
You learn more on your own than actually going to her class. Most of her lectures are repetitive and opinion based. Also her lectures are boring and no one in class knows their grade until the end. Shes not clear on what she wants you to do and she doesnt help you at all. Honestly one of the worst professors I ever had, I would not recommend her
HORRIBLE!!! DO NOT TAKE HER. Her lectures have nothing to do with anything and her tests are ridiculously hard. In my opinion, this professor needs a 1 star rating. She complains about everything and you never know your grade until the end of the semester. Also, she tends to lie about alot of things. NOT RECOMMENDED.
HORRIBLE
Her lectures are repetitive and sleep-inducingly bad. She utilizes slides that offer very little information, telling students that "it's in the textbook" rather than teaching the material. If this class is specifically needed for your degree, take a different professor. If it isn't, take a physical activity class instead.
The absolute worst professor I have ever had. She never replies to emails and does not allow to use office hours for questions on assignments. What are office hours for then? She is rude and difficult for no good reason. Never in my life have I had a more rude and more difficult professor. DO NOT TAKE! hopefully mcc realizes how bad she is.
I really feel like people should start taking these reviews seriously. This professor was the worst professor I ever had. Please do yourself a favor and not take her. Her exams are opinion based and if she doesn't agree with your answer, you get it wrong. TAKE SOMEONE ELSE!!!!
Horrible. Doesn't check emails. Doesn't know how to put in grades so you have to constantly remind her. Her lectures are just dumb inspirational quotes meanwhile her exams have words she's never said once out loud. She makes attendance mandatory but you can pass if you just read the textbook.
Her tests are annoyingly difficult, even if you read the textbook and listen to her boring lectures. If you fail one of her tests, it's over cuz. So lock in.
She was terrible. I told her I had a death in the family and wanted to submit my assignment a day late and she said it was fine. Come the morning of I hand in my project (that took me a month to do) and she says she doesn't accept late work, and I will receive a 0. The only thing that she said to do is to drop the class.
Prepare yourself for a professor who does not grade, answer emails, or let alone gives you time to actually intake information. All her slides are just inspirational quotes that have NOTHING to do with her 50+ question tests. I was absent once, emailed her if I missed anything, no response, didn't receive the project booklet, I have an F now!
Currently in the class with a 55. The lectures are terrible and boring. The slides don't help. Nothing to study for heavy weighted tests. First exam the whole class failed. Good luck studying and do every single homework assignment. We even took this to the chairman her boss and he can't help us. I hope you guys have a chance for another teacher.
HORRIBLE dont take her run her slides dont even match up with the test she makes no sense plz run
Please do not take this class. Avoid if you can. She grades by 4 tests and "attendance and participation". The former she grades using a scantron and tests with typos, meanwhile the latter she likely won't put in until the end of class. She does lecture, but she goes too fast on the slides. No matter how easy the review sounds, the test is harder.
This professor is such a caring woman. I am currently taking her, and when I asked her what I could do to study for class, she recommended interactive lectures and the textbook to study. She is very understanding and always helps when you ask for it. The tests are a bit lengthy, but you'll be fine if you use the credentials. Highly recommend her!
This professor's lectures do not match up with what is on the test. Her lectures are short slides that she goes through far too fast. Looking at the statistics for the tests, the upper percentile is 70% or lower so far. She claims that "Attendance/Participation" is 40% of the grade, but won't put the grade in until the last day of class.
I understand that we're learning about human sexuality and life... But why is she talking about her own fantasies during class? Her tests are 60+ questions, only a quarter of which are on the lectures. Several students are failing her tests, as nobody I've talked to has gotten over a 70.
She was very simple and everything is self explanatory
Genuinely awful class. All grades are test based and the test answers are literally opinionated. She's a sweet person but absolutely horrible at what she does.
No student in this class has an A. Her test questions are unclear, and it is obvious that this teacher is allergic to doing work. I asked for extra credit, and she said no because she'd have to give it to everybody. I think she's writing her reviews because everyone in the class is doing poorly and is rightfully angry.
NEVER TAKE HER SAVE YOUR LIVES AND DO NOT TAKE HER NO MATTER IF YOU HAVE ONLY HER MATCHING YOUR SCHEDULE
waste of time, waste of money, waste of resources.
Awful teacher
This professor is literally the worst professor i've had. First off the way she grades tells you she is lazy. 60% test 40% attendance. We had only 4 tests for the semester. I have a learning disability and she mad it so hard to get my tests to the testing center. Also her tests are unpassable, i had studied and failed each one.
get ready for constant cancellations of class, reading from the book, boring sleep inducing lectures, and good luck on the final if she even teaches you guys since we had to self teach and there were a bunch of things on that final that weren't mentioned in the book. she can be funny i guess. i ended with an 81 when i SHOULDVE ended with a 87 .
