By far one of the best educators on the planet..I consider it a privilege to attend her classes! She brings real world experience and gently nudges you to see outside of the American way of thinking . People say "you cant teach critical thinking, it's a natural ability" Dr. Kimora can absolutely teach this with a real world perspective !

I just took her online class this semester (Fall 2017). Textbook is required, otherwise you would't pass both midterm and final exam. Both exams are easy, answer her 5-6 questions, using at least ten quotes to support your argument from textbook. It is less than $35 and the money is worth it. No other paper/ discussion/quizzes, just do the reading.
