As far as her teaching methods, she can be a little difficult but she is fair and open-minded to everything. She prepares you for future classes that are a lot harder

Some students might portray this professor as a sort of "push over" for an easy A. I disagree; her lessons were thought-provoking, insightful, and very relevant. Rigor was ever present (e.g. class discussions, community research, and written assignments)- definitely a must for students who wanted a teacher with substance. She kept things R-E-A-L.
