When you can't word out what you want to say to your students, so that when they misunderstand it they get punished for it because you don't know how to use your punctuation marks. That's this professor for you. Hey, but at least you know how to add 1's and 0's right? Half her course is copy paste youtube link. Might as well pay youtube the tuition

This professor is unprofessional she talks about her son's career and either refuses to help students that are struggling. She gives little time for exams and gets angry if students are failing even though she is barely teaching them the material properly. Doesn't try to demonstrate proper knowledge of assembly language in a beginner friendly way.

Crazyyy how she is still teaching this course. I have taken her class two years ago and It was the worst decision I have ever made. She is the worsttt of all and this lady do not know how to teach at all. I don't know how she became a professor. She spend half of her class talking about her son and bro catches student when they get help from online

This is hands down the worst professor I have ever taken. She does not know how to teach, half the class dropped the class, and has the worst test reviews you'll ever read. She is literally the worst teacher in KBCC. Stay away from this professor, please. Anyone I know who has taken this class agrees. She barely teaches and then gives assignment.

Definitely one of the, if not the worst CS professor ever, she can't explain and her assignments are super difficult to understand. All she teaches is the background resources about her son. I am gunna take it again this fall but hopefully with a professor who could teach.

She is awful, you can spent the whole semester in her class and learn nothing, she doesn't know how to teach anything. Never explains anything in class, starts to explain and than start and story or gets lost on her thoughts. A whole semester was such a waste of time, you have to learn everything by your owns. Don't take CP6200

She has no idea how to teach, I don't know how she became a professor. Homework, labs, projects are so difficult to understand what she is asking, she expects you to know everything. DO NOT TAKE HER

she is a good professor, listen to her, watch her posted videos, talk to her. she is nice, ask questions. you need to do some outside class practice to understand and memorize material. there gonna be labs, (you can use your own computers to do them)

She was horrible. Most students struggled and asked for help, but the instructions were unclear. She knew Mac users couldn't do RAPTOR assignments and offered no solution. She barely taught, expected instant understanding, and despite doing most of the work, I got an F. She told STEM majors they weren't fit for STEM.

Don't take the class, get an e-permit for another college or just transfer. Genuinely the worst professor I've ever had or witnessed in my 24 years of being alive. You will learn nothing.
