Mrs. Hooper made everything very clear. She passes out great reviews and is always willing to help! She passes out assignments that are helpful and related to the topics discussed. If you want to take government, she is the best teacher to pick.
A great teacher. Her class is really easy if you just show up, take notes, and study the reviews. She is very approachable. In addition to all that, she's HOT!
Very easy class if you show up every day.
Mrs. Hooper is the best! She gives you every oppurtunity in the world to get an A. GO to class, do the assinged work and you will not only learn alot, you will get an A! Highly recommended!
Mrs. Hooper is such a cool teacher! She makes government so much fun. I would recommend her to everyone!
I have taken all of Mrs. Hooper's government classes and have learned a ton! She has so much extra credit it is almost impossible to not get a good grade. She was my absolute favorite teacher at NCTC!
There's no reason not to make an A in her class unless you completely slack off. She will help you through anything you can't understand. She knows her stuff and she's really freakin' excited about it too. It's a lot of fun in her class!! So go!
Hottest instructor you will ever have!!! interesting class too.
She is so awesome!! One of the best teachers I've ever had..and fellas, she ain't 1/2 bad to look at!

really excellent teacher. i would love to take her out
She is definatley hot and her class is a blast....definately recommend to everyone...Hoop in the House!!!!!
AWESOME Teacher! Very fun, very intelligent, not too difficult, and I look forward to seeing her every day.
She is a good teacher, really good content. Passes out reviews, and so much extra credit you can get an A without taking some of the tests. She's also really hot.
Mrs. Hooper is absolutley wonderful!! She teaches great, gives the best notes, and gives more than enough extra credit to easily pass her class. I recommend her very highly. Besides being a good teacher she is also very funny and a very nice person!!
You couldn't ask for a better teacher in all the world!
Mrs. Hooper is probably my most favorite professor ever. No one has ever been able to make something as boring as Government fun like she does. She's hillarious, awesome and I want to take her for any class she teaches. I recommend her to everyone!!!
Instructor Hooper is one of the best teachers ever. She gives out alot of assignments but they are easy. She is clear, you do not need the books for these 2 courses, she gives out enough easy extra credit to pass alone, and Hoop is funny. A definite "A"! Do take her for these 2 courses.
Mrs. Hooper was probably the best teacher I have had at NCTC. Not only is she very attractive, she makes it interesting enough that you really dont want to miss her class. If you need to know which teacher to take for govt, this is the one. SHE IS HOT!!!!!
love her!! shes a **** too
AWESOME!!! You dont need the book. Make sure to come to class though because she tells you stuff thats not on the notes but is on the test!!! Best teacher I had.
Awsome teacher, alot of fun , makes the subject very interesting!
Excellent Teacher! Has her for 2305 and 2306. Best Teacher at NCTC! Powerpoint Notes, MC Test, Do Reports (easy), Many ways to get extra credit,
She was my very first college professor, she is amazing. I can't imagine a more helpful professor.
She is the most AMAZING teacher I have ever had!!!!!!! She makes everything seam so easy when it comes to government. She is so increadably nice and her test ARE NOT ard if you attend class and pay attention!!! I had her for National and Texas Government
she is awsome! I loved her class. You have to study but she offers enough ex cre to get an easy A. No book required either. Just print out the lecture slides and fill them in in class. She has the cutest accent too.
I wouldn't say her class is easy because there is a lot of information to cover, but it is worth it because she makes the class interesting and enjoyable. She does offer x-credit, but you do have to work for it. She encourages you to get out & do new things... like attend a City Council meeting...be more involved in the community...Great Teacher
Very sweet and interesting lady. Fun, and EASY class. Well for me it was...You do have to pay attention and study..but that's all it takes to make an A!
I love her! She is the absolute best teacher NCTC has to offer. I wish she taught Speech and History. No book necessary. She goes over everything in class. You do have to pay attention to her tid-bits because she puts them in the test to make sure you were paying attention in class. Very fun instructor. You will actually learn things in her class.
She's a great teacher and make the material enjoyable, she's serious about what she does and is very involved. Extra credit is a must. Some test questions are a little tricky so make sure you read, a lot. Attendance for extra credit but if you come everyday, read, and take her "fill in the blank" notes, you'll have an enjoyable A from great teacher
Wonderful teacher. Very involved with the students and extremely interesting lectures. Gives TONS of Extra Credit, so there really is no excuse to not get an A. The tests inclue everything from the Powerpoint notes, so there wasn't much need for a textbook. Very serious about her subject, she knows what she's talking about. Loved the class.
Wonderful teacher. Very involved with the students and really interesting lectures. Gives TONS of Extra Credit. The tests include everything from the Powerpoint notes, so there wasn't much need for a textbook. She can get very specific so take additional notes. Very serious about her subject, she knows what she's talking about. Loved the class.
Incredibly cool teacher! She loves the subject and it shows. Somehow she has managed to make government interesting and fun. I highly recommend her :)
Hooper is very sweet and nice! her class is interesting and its not that she is easy... she makes Learning Easy. i really like her teaching style! and if you attend class you will learn more ;]
Ms. Hooper rocks! There is work to be done in her class but she makes it fun and makes you want to do it. I can't wait to take her again next year!
Great professor. Tons of bonus opportunities. Exams are a bit challenging, but take good notes and study and you will do fine. Put the effort in and it's an easy A.
Wish she taught history! Can't get enough of Hooper!
I sat front row center in this class because she is a HOTTIE!! I learned so much from her and I wish that she was my teacher for every class. By far she is my new favorite teacher!
Fine mrs hooper has me learned in the laws of texas
Mrs. Hooper is awesome!! Wish she taught every class!! She is a stickler for doing the assignments but is a very fun instructor.
LOVE Mrs Hooper! I do not like government but she makes it fun! She is also super funny! It's not an easy A..you have papers that shes pretty strict about and you have assignments every so often. Awesome teacher!!
I had both of her history classes a couple of years ago, as did my brother before me. She was always very helpful and interested in getting you to succeed. Was interesting and showed video presentations at times. Offered extra credit upon request and got a B out of it.
I took her Nat'l Govt class, Hooper is a great teacher. Be on time, listen to her lecture, take notes, do the assignments, and keep an open mind. She is super passionate and this class is what you make it. She offers a lot of extra credit, I don't see how anyone could do poorly if you at least show up. I'm enrolled for her State Govt now.
SHE IS GREAT. VERY HELPFUL AND SHE IS SOO FUNNY. LOTS OF EXTRA CREDIT , SHE EXPECTS YOU TO ATTEND. GREAT CLASS I RECOMMEND IT.
She is a really fun professor with a lot of passion for her job. I would recommend you take her class. Though you do have a few assignments, it is nothing you can't do and they get your mind thinking. If you like politics, you will love her, and even if you don't, she is still a good professor.
mrs. hooper is THE BEST. she is truly a great teacher and explains everything with good detail. her tests are pretty hard, so study well.
This was a great Maymester class. Mrs. Hooper is passionate about Govt and she is a great teacher. Be on time, attend every class, take notes, do all your work and you can succeed in this class and you will learn ome interesting facts about Texas!!
Highly recommend. Going to every class is essential. She expects a lot and will push you to think outside your comfort zone. You will be expected to write papers about your own political beliefs. She will never tell you which way she leans and you will never know because she doesn't ever grades on a bias. Professional, witty, and best prof@nctc
Honestly one of the best instructors I've had in my entire college career. She is passionate about the subject, and that shows in the her teaching style. She does have high expectations, but rewards her students for hard work. If you show up, you will actually LEARN about government, not just regurgitate facts for a test.
She makes you want to learn about government and I hate government. She will answer all your questions, and really really really really awesome!!!!!!! Take plus she's pretty hot lol.
Such an amazing professor! I learned so much in both of her classes (TX and National Gov). She doesn't need to teach from the book because she understands how students learn, and conveys the information in ways that are easily understandable. There are so many extra credit opportunities that you'd have to be trying really hard to fail her class!!
Hooper is great! Does not teach from the text book and test are directly from lectures and notes. Makes students want to learn the materiel and teaches in a way that you will learn.
She is awesome and make learning very interesting i would recommend her to anyone anytime
A really awesome teacher.. I took her for 2306 and got a B+.. She is the perfect individual for Texas Govt.. Shes so funny and kept me focused.. Attendance is a must or you will fail!! Come to class and your guaranteed to pass!!
Hooper is a good teacher. She does not require the textbook, all lecture notes. Attendance is mandatory, so you have to be ON TIME. Study the material and attend class and it is very easy to get an A.
First time I'm rating a teacher but I just had to write about Ms Hooper. Seriously, the funniest instructor I've taken. She's really passionate about the subject and it shows. Attendance isn't required but I wouldn't have done well at all if I didn't go. Take the class and you shouldn't regret it:)
The BEST!!! Visit her still to this day during office hours... The most down to earth professor you will ever meet... Dont cross her because she does not put up with it... shes no fool, shes been doing this a long time and dam good at her job!! Hooper for president!! :)
She is absolutely amazing. I wasn't looking forward to taking a govt class but she made it so interesting! She's passionate and knows what she's talking about. You really do have to study if you want an A but as long as you attend class, it isn't too difficult. She's soooo pretty as well and really cool to talk to. One of the best instructors ever
Hooper is a great professor, hands down. Considering that she has to teach people about politics all day, she handles it so well. I see her occasionally outside of class and she always says hello. Take notes, master the I-clicker questions, and participate. You will make an A. One of the best professors you can have.
Ms. Hooper is the best teacher I've ever taken. She makes government class really interesting. and she is super preeeeeettyyy :)
Glorious teacher!! She really kows how to teach government and is super helpful! Shes hot! Take this course you wont regret it
I had no interest in Government before taking this class. She makes learning fun and teaches in a way that makes you want to know more. If you attend class, conquer the clicker questions & post tests, and do extra credit,there is no reason not to make an A.If I can do it after being out for 10 yrs(in a May Mester),anyone can. And...she HOOOT!!! :-)
She gives what she expects from her students !!0% She is a firecracker! If you follow her rules, do the assignments, turn it in on time! Offers extra credit. You will do great!
She is an amazing teacher. Fun, interactive, and easy to follow as long as you pay somewhat attention. She gives you a lot of extra credit opportunities, so there is no reason you shouldn't get an A in this class. Excellent teacher
This class is an easy A if you put in the work. Read the instructions carefully and don't be afraid to ask questions. Tests were a compilation of questions taken from quizzes, so pretty easy to study. You will need your textbook as some quizzes are based on comprehension of the text. I'd recommend e-book so you can use the Norton Study Space.
AWESOME LADY! She is extremely clear with all of her directions and the work load is perfect, not too much, but you actually learn really knowledge that is applicable to real life.
Awesome Professor. I loved the class and would take it again with her. I learned a lot more than I thought I would.
Just the greatest professor ever! She made so interesting and applicable. Perfect amount of assignments - never pointless, you always learn something. I would take her again in a heartbeat!
Hands down the best professor I've ever had. I received a 40 100 on an important paper and she was willing to look over it again and re-grade it just because I made the effort to meet up with her and figure out how I could have done better. The tests were super easy because they were 100% based off of information found in the chapters.
Best Government Teacher PERIOD.
SHE IS GREAT. SHE IS KIND. SHE IS FUNNY. HER CLASS WAS AWESOME.
Great professor! Took her for fall-flex semester and made an A. I highly recommend taking her!
Absolutely love her, she makes government interesting. If you have trouble falling asleep in classes you wont with her. She is easily exited by government and gets loud. She gives you Power Points to print out but there are blanks so class is necessary.
Just do the in class participation, the post tests, and take notes. I did all the assignments out of my ass the night before they were due (all As on those). ALSO did not use the textbook. As long as you pay attention, and look at the post tests, you'll definitely pass her class. It helps that the lectures were entertaining and memorable! :)
I took summer class, 5 weeks long, she is amazing! She's a little intimidating at first but her lectures are clear cut! I had no interest in Government, because I didn't understand it, but after her class,I find it very interesting. There is homework, research paper, essay, and some in class work. Go to class everyday she gives extra credit for it!
While this was a very work intense class there was no doubt we were expected to perform at a college level. Professor Hooper always responded if we had questions and clarity was never an issue. I would take a class taught by her again! Hard but fair.
Really great professor Makes government exciting, really funny and legit. You don't really need the book, just take notes on things she really emphasizes in class. If you make A's on both of her exams and you have less than 2 absences, you are exempt from the final!
Mrs. Hooper is a really good teacher that is willing to work with you only if you are willing to take her class seriously. She always gives you opportunities for extra credit. I suggest showing up to class regularly, doing the homework she assigns (it's not hard at all), paying attention and taking good notes. Her lectures are always fun :)
Gives great feedback. Helpful if needed. Easy to contact. Readings, semester project, homework and additional assignments. Good class and professor.
I wish Ms. Hooper taught more classes! I had her for both governments and received an A+ in both! You get the grade you deserve! There is quite a bit of hw but she gives tons of extra credit! Be on time to class as some of that extra credit is at the beginning. Makes lectures interesting and really wakes you up in her 8AM! Overall amazing prof :)
Great teacher & the class is super easy,just write down the extra credit questions that she asks during the class (they're ALL on the tests). There are no reviews, but as long as you print out the powerpoint notes and fill them in you'll get at least a B on the tests. I made a 99.35 but only made 2 A's on the 3 tests we had. Do quizzes on time too.
Do yourself a favor and take her. She will answer every question and get back to you immediately. She is a well rounded and deserves an award for being a great teacher. Government is not my thing at all and she made possible for me to get a High B. She really cares about her students and enjoys what she does.
Ms. Hooper was amazing! I took her for Texas and Federal Government. Her lectures were interesting and hilarious. Super awesome person. She's always there for her students too.
She is very knowledgeable about Texas government. If you take her class you will learn many important things, like who represents you etc.
Her TX Govt course was well planned out and gave me plenty of time to plan my workload around my other classes. She gave clear expectations for assignments and, on some, allows you to resubmit for a higher grade. She expects you to think and analyze on written assignmentsso dont expect a great grade if you just turn in facts. Highly recommend!
She insures that getting an A is simple, now that doesn't mean it is handed out to you. Her tests are not hard but you absolutely must study and pay attention to the lectures. She is a great teacher for those entering into college, she is very helpful yet still insures the class remains difficult.
I thoroughly enjoyed her class. I've never been big on politics or government, but I had an itch to come to her class because I enjoyed it so much. You felt like you could ask anything an not feel dumb, or less intelligent. I even coined a phrase in her class apparently, so if your ever in her class talking about "coffee and orange juice" thats me!
She is an amazing teacher? I had her for a May mini mester. Four and a half hours with her, five days a week, I was never bored! She is very entertaining, smart, SPUNKY! I highly recommend her class. No book required.
I'm taking her Fed Gov class now and it's really easy if you pay attention. Limited amount of homework that all comes from the eBook. She does have occasional in class assignments and if you don't show up then you get a 0. She does not accept late work but you have plenty of time to do everything for the class. Tests are straight from the lecture.
She is fantastic. Probably the best government teacher on campus. At least 2 homework assignments each week but overall an easy grader and lets you know exactly what to study for the test. Lots of opportunities for extra credit and very passionate about government and is very entertaining!!
I not not applaud Professor Smith any more regarding her teaching ability, assignments, and overall demeanor. It is obvious that she gives a damn about what she is teaching which is always a pleasure to see. Her assignments were so straightforward- no gimmicks. The assignments were challenging but they made sense! Great lectures!
Amazing teacher! Always gives extra credit, teaches so nicely. She sometimes makes jokes and really wakes up the 8am class. Would take her again.
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!! I wish I could take her for every class! TAKE HER! She gives so much extra credit! And the big projects are super easy! Shes exciting and makes you actually like government even if thats the last thing you thought you would do. I ended with a 94, easily.
Amazing Fed + Tex gov Teacher. Really knows what she's doing and takes care of you as long as you study! She maintained an amazing presence and didn't bore me a second. If you're looking for your federal + texas gov teacher, then this is your lady. She's the best gov teacher ever + the extra credit is hard to turn down. 10/10.
New her stuff, seems very passionate about the sub. Great professor. She was very good at communicating any and all information that would show up on a test later. Very direct, never allowed the class to take control. She limited students comments during her lectures. Her clicker question provided a little fun at the beginning and end of her class.
Absolutely a fantastic professor. Hands down one of the best, I am so glad I took Professor Hooper's class. She makes Texas government (which varies from Federal Govt A LOT), a very easy to understand concept. Her lectures are funny and engaging and if you have problems outside of class she will honestly work with you. Extremely caring & passionate
TAKE HER! Shes so understanding and she gives so many opportunites to get an A and if you show up to class, you will be rewarded. It helps to sit at the front and participate. Just do the work and show up!
One of the best professor's I've ever had! Hilarious, witty, and caring. I never had to study because she made everything so interesting I remembered it all! She wants to see you succeed!
She has a negative attitude. If you answer questions incorrectly, she will make you feel bad. She mentions something once in her lecture and expects you to remember it til test day. She doesn't give material to study for tests except for the lectures. I feel that she needs to work on her teaching skills instead of blaming students for not grasping.
This professor is one of the best at NCTC. She cares about the subject, she cares about the student, and she cares about the school. She expects college-level work, but she doesn't make anything impossible. All of her assignments are extremely-well laid out for you in detail. Her exams are just like the Power-points. I wish she taught every subject
Loved this class and loved this professor. She is smart and caring and her class is easy to follow. Youre going to have to do the work, but she is clear in her expectations.
Professor Hooper/Smith knows what she is talking about. She can answer almost any question you could have. She gives you everything you will need to pass, you just have to show up and apply yourself.
Very Tough Grader. NOBODY GETS AN "A"
LOVE LOVE this professor! The class is only hard if you don't pay attention. She is super funny and loves what she teaches! Highly recommend her!!
I had to take her online due to covid and she was not clear on what she wanted foe assignments and then would leave rude comments when you did something wrong. She didn't give a lot of work so that was nice but I felt like she was trying to find any and everything wrong with the work you do. She acts like she is an English teacher grades grammar.
I am an A+ student, and I have never experienced someone who grades like her. It never makes sense. I rarely give bad reviews, but she deducts points on the assignments from the smallest typos to the smallest information left out. This prevents me from wanting to learn actual government because she expects you to know the most useless information.
grades way to hard for a basic govt class, harder then the other 4 year large university. do ALL extra credit or your not getting an A! take someone else i would not take her again.
