She is a super sweet professor once you get to know her. At first she can come off aggressive and her emails are also very aggressive. She uses Cengage which requires a lot of time and work. Her test are extremely hard if you did not study and are given under a very short time frame. Need to be willing to put in the extra work!

Great professor, interesting content if you are interested. Nice person, willing to work with you and help you if needed. Lectures can be boring at times and she skips around. Honestly, if you show up to class, read the textbook (which you have to buy new w/ mindtap), and do the assignments you should be fine.

Pretty normal. I didnt enjoy the class at all, thought it was boring. I took the class online Bc of covid, and she was good with that. Kind of disorganized, but not bad.

Okay professor, she rushes through the lectures but its an easy course. You need to buy mindtap which is expensive but its essential to get a good grade and also isn't difficult. She teaches the course good for a beginner course

The only thing I would critique is she does move through the slides way too fast. Otherwise, she was a good professor, with easy homework and essays.

The professor is a decent professor. She goes by slides a bit too quickly and gives no time to write the notes down. Homework and test are online. Weekly law articles. Grades don't get posted till after the midterm and end of the final.

She has great lectures. Uses great examples to describe whatever she is talking about. All of the homework and tests were online. There were discussions on canvas. Get ready to read. You have to pay for the material she gives you.

Professor Kleiner goes over the slides too quick and assigns about 3-4 chapters to read and complete assignments(find online) for every 2-3 weeks. Gave out three tests which are true/false. Gave 3 excused absences.

Professor Kleiner was an amazing instructor. She is extremely knowledgeable in the field of law and her teaching demonstrates that. All tests are take-home including the Final (no midterm). There is weekly homework that can seem overwhelming but in reality they take around 20 minutes to complete. Overall amazing professor, highly reccomend.

overall an okay course. a few chapter assignments due each month - about 2 hours of work per month so not bad but assignments can be dense. in addition, she posted assignments on canvas without telling us so be sure to check regularly so you dont miss anything. final was a group project. overall a decent course and learned a lot

Professor Kleiner runs an informative class. While the lectures can feel rushed, the content is engaging and relevant. Assignments through MindTap are essential, but manageable with the help of resources like Unstuckstudy. Overall, a good introductory law course.
