She is a good teacher. She is really nice. I think the lisp is something that can be over-looked. Class is boring, but just about any 100 level class is.

Really nice lady, if you are looking for an easy teacher. I think having a teacher that is "overly nice" is better than having a jerk. I would recommend it.

Easy teacher, pretty nice. If you just need a GDR, it's an easy one. Do a good job on the video reviews.

not bad make sure she does the power points with her lectures. Easy grade go and see her for your first video review to make sure you did it right. Cancels class a lot!!! :)

REALLY EASY CLASS. My first semester I had a 2.3 GPA and I got an A in her class with out putting forward any effort. If she offers the once a week class take it because she always cuts class by atleast an hour.

Very sweet, helpful lady. Easy text, easy exams.

Nice woman, very helpful. Does test reviews before each exam. Good class.

hard to contact and meet with her for outside help, but overall a pretty easy teacher...and her notes are online..so it wasn't NECESSARY to go to class unless she made us go into groups and work (which gave us extra points)

This class was an absolute breeze. The tests are easy and she is very helpful if you have questions about anything. Just go to class, read the chapters, and study and this class is no problem

Very nice lady. Obvious she knows what she's talking about, but very disorganized and unclear about expectations and did not seem to put forth much of an effort in this summer course - just threw in a movie.

The class was okay. She is kind of cold when she's one on one with a student. Informative material. Easy to do well.

watched alot of movies and do video reviews for two of those. i actually liked this class. if you do well on first three exams.....you don't have to take the final at the end of semester. i did very well so i didn't have to take the final.

Juvenile delinquency made me a more intelligent, better person. She teaches you how organize your thoughts and arrange an argument like a scientist. Her classes focus on empirical evidence and are very straightforward. If you can't write an essay, take De Boer. It will be life-changing.

I loved class and appreciated her explanations, there was no confusion about expectations.I thought she was an excellent instructor and would take her agin. I never witness her being unkind or disrespectful. She actually was very helpful to me when I neede it.

She is absolutely great with first year seminar. Highly recommend. She is a great professor and she is always available to her students to help with in the classroom and out of the classroom problems. Great person and professor. If you need to take a first year seminar, I highly recommend hers!

great class

Only 1 real lecture per week. Other is a "hybrid" class which usually amounts to watching a 1 hr documentary and summarizing it. Exams are easy. Doesn't have a Criminal Justice background, even though she teaches Criminology, but says she has family on both sides of the law. Classes are still somewhat interesting.

She is one of my favorite professors. Just like other professors, if you give her respect, she will give you the same respect. She is hard to contact through email sometimes, but if you really need to see her just go to her office hours. Great professor.

Professor DeBoer is very sweet and will go out of her way to clarify or give you more information outside of class. Took her class my freshman year and I did not mind going to class every day, and she was very understanding when I needed to miss a few classes for personal reasons. Class films and material were interesting and not a bad work load.

Go to class and you'll pass with an A. Tests are easy. Nice person and lectures are easy. Don't take that many notes, won't need them to pass tests. Lots of extra credit options in class. Drops one out of four exams so you don't need to take final if you don't want.

She is good at explaining the subject. Class can be a bit dull if you don't like soc. I liked her and her class a lot. She does have pop quizzes but you only need 4 and some are online. EC point for participation which can help in the end.

De Boer cares a lot about her students and gives extra credit opportunities throughout the semester, would definitely take her classes again.

Very manageable class load and was very helpful when you needed her insight. Watch the power point and read textbook to get an easy A in the class.

Dr. De Boer made this class super interesting and informational with videos, infographics, and articles hand picked for each chapter. If you read her expectations and the syllabus, you should have 0 issue getting/maintaining an A. I have had her for 3 classes (Soc 230,330,368) and have done very well. Very interesting material and a good class!

Professor De Boer is nice and she makes SOC 101 an easy class to do well in. She provides a study guide and a Quizlet for each exam and if you do well on the first 3 exams, you don't need to take the final. She also only takes the top 4 quiz grades!

I had no issues with Professor DeBoer. She made online learning easy and simple, it was clear what we needed to do and she even gave us an extra credit opportunity. There was a decent amount of discussion posts in this class but they were easy points and you got to do your own research for most of them. She also created Quizlets for exams.

At first, I was driving 30mins since her class in point was full. She took matters into her own hands and talked to the right people to squeeze me into the point class. There are lots of extra credit opportunities and she makes sure we have options so we can fit papers into our schedule. I am excited for my future classes with her.

I really like her as a professor she is sweet and seems like she genuinely cares about her students. One thing I didn't like however was she said that attendance wasn't mandatory but then she started making in-class assignments that were super easy if you came to class but if you missed class you had to write a four page paper for a make up.

Professor De Boer is a very kind and understanding professor who tries to accommodate every student. She teaches well and gives great feedback on assignments and exams.

SOC 396- She provides a lot of information in the class but does not require much participation from students. She has the textbook online to save students money. She will meet with you outside of class is all around very supportive. Grades are based on attendance, a few discussion boards and 3 exams. I find her interesting & expectations clear.

Dr. De Boer is an amazing professor and super sweet! I actually decided to minor in sociology because of her :) The class is really easy to pass as long as you complete the discussions and there's honestly not that many. There's a class textbook, but you can pass without even opening it. As long as you know the vocab, you'll pass easily.

She was very caring. Very clear about grading and is very understanding. Offers many times for extra credit. Tests were multiple choice. Class is very easy as long as you take the practice quizzes on canvas and watch the assigned videos.
