I had a hard time in this class, to begin with, and at first, blamed her. I quickly learned it was all on myself. The second I began participating and asked for help she was amazing. She would sit with me and work through any questions I had. The only time she is hard is when students don't participate or show up.

Danielle is very vague when it comes to giving lectures, she would talk for a little and then waste half the class asking for examples, which is not a bad technique except that she does it every 5 minutes and never say if the example was correct or not. She gives vague and bad instructions and then grade you poorly for not being "specific" enough.
