Poor instructional level. Very difficult to understand. Always wants to keep moving . Tests are impossible. Directions are unclear on assignments. Assignments repeatedly retruned for editing, but without clear understanding of expectations.
AHHHHHH, the class from hell, run away and save yourself

the absolute worst teacher ever. she is too old, still probably believes in spanking, wont allow students to come back after leaving to use bathroom. never gives papers back till last day and tehn says to re write them. doesnt even make any sense.
Needs to retire NOW!!!!!!!!

one word: BOOOOOORRRRIIIIINNNNNNGGGGGGG!!!!!!
She is very hard to understand. But if you go to class everytime and try hard, you will get an A.
At least 6 students left during the FIRST class, then people tried to sign in untill they sat through the class and realized the instructor was INSANE. she pretends to drink coffee from an empty cup and acts as if the non-existant drink gives her energy.
Worst teacher I have ever had. Doesnt really teach, just rambles on. Tests are impossible, and not on whats taught. Gives ridiculous HW assignments that arent clear, than hands them back months later and tells you to revise them. AVOID HER AT ALL COST
I had to go take a pee once in her class and she wouldn't let me back in...
The worst teacher ever!! She goes off on hour long tangents having nothing to do with the course. Never gives actual grades. Makes fun of us in class. No clear directions. Immpossible tests and quizzes and a complete **** to top it off! Run away!!
by far the worst teacher ever!!!first of all all she does is talk about pointless information and then expects you to do all this work that is impossible...SHE SUKS!!!
She is the worst teacher I have ever had. She sucks
Worse teacher I ever had by far in my 4 years as a full time student. Everything you read and heard is true. Can't teach, or at least be interesting. Tons of work that she'll make you do over 100 times. Too high standards. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
worst class ever, hope that all the bad things in the world happen to her as payback. she gives 20 hours of work a week..no joke...22/30 people dropped the class by the end of the 1st month..wish i did too
This class should have been worth at least 8 credits. Be prepared to spend at least 8 hours a week outside of class during entire semester. Expect to put in alot of work but learn alot at the same time.
i cried every day for two weeks and then i dropped...DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS!
So... I failed everything she handed out and never had any idea what she was talking about and got an A. The kid who sat next to me got A's on everything she handed back and failed the class. The woman is nuts. NUTS. She seems to grade entirely on whims.
I took her class 2 years ago and have yet to remove the stain from my mind. This teacher fails to carry out her most basic function as a teacher ... which of course is teaching. Drop the class before it is too late, that was my mistake!
i took her final with 6 other people in the classroom. so many people dropped. she lectured about things that weren't on the test and i did not learn one thing from her that i didn't know before. lectures and tests were different material. hated her!!
She is the worst teacher ever...do not take her. I dropped the class a month into the course and received a full refund for the class from the dean. She is crazy!
horribel teacher..run away while you can. she like stalks the people in the class and can't teach for anything!
If you want to learn about econ take someone else.If you want to learn about her doctor's vists and her mother take this class. Can't teach worth anything.Horrible and miserable person who is angry at life and wants revenge on young students.Stockton's administration should take action against her.
the semster I took the class we started with 35 students and ended with 7, that should say it all. She is very unclear and does not teach at all, she is more interested in her personal life than teaching the course. She is extremely hard to communicate with. Stockton should reconsider her as a prof.
I graduated 5 years ago and still remember how bad she was. The only way to stop her teaching is to stop taking her class! Force the dean to do what has been needed to be done for years.
I hate her she is the worst teacher! even the dean said there is nothing they can do she is on tenure. she didnt give me a grade in class so it turned to a F on my transcript then she said that it was too late to do anything about it. She has personally ruined my gpa. do not take her.
she is the worst teacher ever...i wish she knew about this website so she could see how many people realy hate her. She fails kids for no reason. she grades based on how she feels. she SUKS!!! some1 really needs to kick her out of that school~ HORRIBLE!! STAY AWAY
Wow...all I can say is terrible. Definitely don't take this class unless you're already an elderly person who likes miserable people and who loves to get tons of confusing, unclear assignments. Again, our class started out at 30-some, by the next class, 9. RUN AWAY!
Worse professor ever.Class started with over 30 ended with 5!Also went to dean and didn't help. She can't teach at all.Don't take unless you want to fail,out of the 5 people who were left 3 failed,2 passes only so it didn't look bad on her part.Stay away from her she will follow you and haunted you
Just straight out unhelpful class. If you are in for an easy or even hard work deserving A, you are in a wrong set of mind. No good then C, no matter how hard you try.
Scary!!!!!!!!!!!
Useless class. Horribly disorganized, no clear instructions or expectations, makes up assignments as they come to her, no accountability, poor boundaries- intrusive on your personal time. Only things learned were about her personal life. Complete waste of money. Completely out of touch with reality.
this class was a scatterbrained mess. Ton of work, ton of disorganized information. But, the professor does care and tries to work with students. You just have to be patient with her. She comes off very intimidating at first, but if you can with that, you can definately survive.
Worst ****ing teacher in the WORLD!!!!!
Horrible class. Assignments given as she thinks of them, no work is good enough and has to be revised forever and is not accepted unless perfect. You can get zeros for work done 3 and 4 times. Tests have nothing to do with what was learned in class. Loses HW. Stay FAR AWAY from her! Maybe if no one takes her classes she'll leave!
horrible
This is a teacher who cares about teaching her students. Just not on ANYTHING that is in the book or that she will be testing on. Often spent classes going off on tangents about nothing what so ever. Personally a nice woman who I believe cares about her
Horrible. Had no understaning of Econ by the time that class was over. Had to redo every damn assignment until it was of her liking. Its like "just give me the damn B!" Gives tons of incompletes so your hell continues to the next term. Wore a gold-tone star trek pin when i was there. Freakin Brutal!
sucks
horrible professor...don't take her unles you ant a ton of work, no respect, and many other negative aspects of her teaching and personal methods.
I remember Professor Elmore quite clearly. Easily the worst professor I've ever had, and a stain on the fine teaching at Stockton. I had her the semester of 9/11, and that's all we talked about for the first 2 weeks. I suggest taking Professor Kenneth Harrison for all Economics courses at Stockton. Elmore should retire immediately.
Wow! I took Macro with her way back in Spring 1996, and ALL the negative comments students post today were just as true back then. I learned more about the (then) recent baseball strike than I ever did about supply and demand. Stay far, far away from this woman!
I think she is borderline retarded. All she did was talk about her mother and her medicine. Highly unorganized and a real ****. She should be put to sleep.
Easily worst teacher at Stockton. No one should ever take her class. This lady has no idea what she is doing.
DO NOT TAKE ANY OF HER CLASSES! She is honestly the worst professor/teacher/educator that I have ever had to work with.
This teacher must be avoided at all costs. She is a disgrace to Stockton. I cant understand how she still has a job. There are ways to get around tenure. Everyone I knew in the class dropped it early, some even got a 50% refund but i tried to stick it out. Big Mistake! If you take her after reading all these ratings you deserve whats coming to you.
omg...this class is freakin insane. She is a very nice persoon adn means well, but the work load is way too much. If you take this class yuo will write 21 essays. Wear your battle gear because you wil be going into war. DON"T TAKE THIS CLASS. I LIVED IN MISERY FOR 3 MONTHS.
It was very difficult to get through this class. Prof Elmore doesn't really teach, she tells you what you need to know and why it is important to know, but leaves it up to you to learn the concepts. First day of class was indecipherable, it took me two weeks to figure out what she wanted from us. She is a nice woman but do not take her class.
I hate her!!! shes a horrible teacher and says nothing of importance!She rambles on about airborne more than the course info. Then gets mad when u fail tests!! ugh no one should have to go through her class!
NEVER LEARNED ANYTHING!!! POINTLESS CLASS...SHE MADE THE CLASS HARDER THAN IT NEEDED TO BE SHE NEVER TAUGHT US ANYTHING
Extremely nice lady but can't teach. You go over nothing relevant to Macro economics in class. All you talk about is the homeworks and when they are due. UNBELIEVABLE AMOUNT OF WORK!!!! Combine 3 of the biggest class loads worth of classes and you had Elmore. Learn nothing from the class. WAY WAY WAY WAY TOO MUCH WORK!! honestly cant say it enough.
worst professor ive ever had so far. any1 who has her as a n upcoming professor...DROP IT. u will regret it if u don't. her teaching is awful, completely useless. talks about airborne & her 95 year old mother & 62 year old self about 90x per class. o...& she blows a whistle at us to quiet down, are we children or dogs? cant figure out whats worse..

no complaints
She is so erratic. Our textbook was online and so were the tests, but she never mentioned the concepts in class, she just addressed test questions and we talked about current events. People talked the whole time and she couldnt do a thing about it. People got so fed up by the end of the semester they just started getting up and leaving in her face.
WORST! unorganized.loopy. homework does not even match materialcoverred in class. drop, drop, drop!
Such a bad teacher. So much homework that she didn't even teach. The final in this class had material that wasn't even taught in class. She is unorganized and did not return papers on time. This teacher goes of tangents for hours and waste time. Avoid at all cost, don't let her ruin your GPA. DON'T TAKE, and DROP if you did. Good luck my friends
She was the worst. There was no point going to class at all. All our quizzes and book were online. We basically taught ourselves everything. All we did in class was talk about current events and things that had nothing to do with the material. Kids stopped showing up. I read these reviews thinking she couldnt be that bad. No, she is that bad.
this lady is sooo bad.i had her two years ago and she hasnt changed onne bit. goes off in class about useless garbage, exams are hard because..she goes off about useless garbage all the time in class! DO NOT take this professor, avoid if possible
awful teacher. When she would get done "teaching" early, she would read the newspaper or her email to the class instead of letting us go home.
Very unorganized.shows favortisim when grading weekly assessments. everything that was on final was not ever taught in class. basically teach yourself macro economics.
probably the worst professor ive ever had. thank God i knew something about the subject before i entered, otherwise id hav been in bad shape. she gave me an F accidentally for my final grade. if i didnt email her about it, the mistake never wud hav been caught. she legit doesnt teach, just gives answers to the homework problems. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!
This lady just kills me i would never ever ever take any of her classes again.
I took her for economics of all ages. If you want an easy class that you will probably fall asleep in every day then take her. She doesn't give many assignments and you have no idea what your grades are. I'm assuming the one final group project at the end counts for all of your grade. Don't waste your money buying the books, never opened them
I had her for Macro and would not recommend taking her. She spent the entire class just talking about current events, most of which didn't relate to any of the material. All of the assignments are online and she doesn't go over ANY material in class. I somehow managed to get a C in her course, but I wouldn't suggest her at all.
economics of all ages. dont take this class. Trust me on this call!!!!!
Absolutely crazy. Requires way too much work. Talks only in economic words. You can never tell what she really means. Requires 8h a week extra work, with a detailed log
Words Can't even describe.
Do not take ECON 2282. She thinks her class is the only class you have this semester. Why to much reading and work. You will need next semester to get it all done...
She was the worst professor I have EVER taken in my entire life. She spent the entire two hour class talking about politics and current events and we would have to teach ourselves the book and homework online and at home. She would grade differently for each person even if we had the same answers, I'll NEVER take her again idc if I need it to grad.
I was a very successful student until this class!She is extremely disrespectful to students, she treats you as though you are not worth her time. She blows a dog whistle at the class when she feels they aren't paying attention. I found it very hard to even sit through class!
Worst class I have ever taken. She's a nice lady but very unclear about what she wants. Rambles on and you have no idea where the class is going. Makes you attend every class then gives hours of online work. So much work...she helps you out if you miss a deadline though. Nice lady, TERRIBLE class!
Listen to all the warnings on this. Stay away. You will do hours of course work only for her to lose and misplace everything. She does blow a whistle when she can't get any control. She literally told a student it was a "poor" idea for her to take five classes instead of four. Her class is like two classes, literally. I have no idea how I got a B.
What everyone else said is completely true...
This professor is so BAD that your preceptors WILL advise you to drop the class, take a W or do whatever you need to, to get out. The dean, other professors and faculity are aware of the problem with this professor and yet she is TENER which she will tell you the first week of class, and so there is NOTHING the school can do! DO NOT TAKE HER!
JUST GIVE HER A CHANCE... SEEK HER, SHE WILL HELP YOU
She is a horrible teacher in front of the class, if you are forced to take her like i was, GO SEE HER WHEN YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND! she is so helpful when its one on one and helps a lot. she will do everything to see you get a passing grade.
doesnt teach at all, she talks about politics and goes off topic majority of the class. she expects a LOT from students (at least 8 hours of work outside of class), she has a lot of assignments and isnt very organized. will also make you feel stupid for asking a question, but then apoligizes. she was a fair grader tho, i somehow dont mind her class
STAY AWAY! I took this class because I needed it as a prerequisite, but now I regret not dropping the class while I had the chance. Professor Elmore assigns an unreasonable amount of work, and is unclear in teaching. Overall, she is one of the worst professors I've had up until now.
If you need organization and structure in a class, Elmore is not for you. It makes sense in her head but that's about the only place. If you are interested in economics wait and sign up for another teacher. You will not have a clear understanding of economics after leaving her class. Only will barely get by
Do not take this class. Or Elmore for that matter. She is extremely unoganized and she never answers her e-mail. She cares about your education but I have to say everything I learned about macroeconomics I do so on my own. Go to class to find out what is due; You will NOT learn anything in her class. She is a sweet lady though!
This class was absolutely ridiculous. When I first came into this class I thought it was only me who was having such a hard time following where she was going with her lessons but the I realized I definitely wasn't. Shes unclear about everything she wants from her students and goes off topic every 5 seconds. Drop this class or stay far away!!
At first I thought this class was okay, but after the second class, I realized that she gets extremely off topic every class. She'll start talking about something relevant and then talk about something completely irrelevant and unimportant. On the last day of class she even told me she was "missing" 3 of my assignments. Don't take her class.
The class only meets once a week and she seems so unorganized each time that we barely learn anything in class. There is a lot of outside work, but she is very willing to help you with office hours, math lab, and emailing, you just have to find time. She requires service learning or a group paper. She does care about us and that is good.
I feel like I barely learned anything in her class. Dont take her for macro unless you are ok with reading and learning material yourself plus a bunch of math worksheets
As long as you are willing to do the work and attend class till the end, you will probably get a C or higher. It will definitely be confusing in the beginning. She tells you about all these work you are suppose to do on the first day and it confuses everyone. She will help you on the QR if you go to her. Or you'll spend 5 hours doing it yourself.
She can be confusing most of the time but if you go to her for help and ask questions, you will make it through. When you ask for help, you show that you care and your grades will show. She can be a little crazy but she does give out A's. She is not so bad. It will definitely take some time to get use to her teaching style.
There is mostly worksheet and posting for her class. Not much test except for one in the beginning of the semester and one at the end. Definitely go to her for help, it will save you plenty of time researching for information on how to do the worksheets.
Currently in this class, its alot of work, you can pass but be prepared to do 8hrs of work a weeek, no lie!
She is the worst person to take for macroeconomics! She doesn't explain the course work well and then she will blame you for not doing the work correctly. Also you have to do a service learning project or civic engagement report. DO NOT TAKE THIS TEACHER!!!!!!
Awful teacher. Avoid at all costs, even if you have to wait until another semester. Completely disorganized, the expectations she has aren't even unreasonable for the type of class this is, but she is so incompetent when it comes to organization and planning that it becomes unreasonable. Every class feels like the first one, in the worst way.
Words cannot describe how mixed up this prof is. One second she'll be on a rant about gas then the next she'll be asking the whole class why we hadn't done any work. She is an absolutely horrible teacher and to be avoided at all costs. We spent an entire class time of 2 hours figuring out our topics for service learning. Currently still no grades
This professor is useless. She is a complete mess and never has a clue what is going on. She is extremely unorganized and the worst professor I have experienced at Stockton. Avoid her at all costs you will be miserable.
Dr. Elmore is excellent, if you work. Very thorough and very sharp. If you are lazy, and going to college not for the education but for the degree than stay away.
Most unclear, confusing professor I've ever taken. DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR.
Very unorganized and never has her due dates correct for the online portion. I feel like I didn't learn anything from her class and I feel unprepared for micro.
without a doubt the worst professor I've ever had. I understood what she was trying to teach, but the problem was nobody knew what to do for the hw. She was extremely unorganized and pretty annoying
Hands down, the worse professor I've ever had. I am a very good student and study and do assignments all on time, but this professor was a disorganized mess. I've learned more about her personal life than anything about economics with aging. Worse professor at Stockton. PLEASE DO NOT TAKE HER.
Do yourself a favor, do not take this class. Biggest mistake of my life and i Have done some really dumb things. its bad... real bad. No due dates for assignments, no clarity, 50 emails in ur inbox before 8am every morning. transfer.
Elmore is a little scatter brained but if you need help or have any questions she will sit down and help you out. She listens to feedback if something isn't working and she will help out if needed. Reading these reviews scared me a little bit from taking this class but she's honestly not that bad if you need to take this class for your major.
Elmore was all over the place. Her lectures often had nothing to do with econ, and the course was disorganized. Constantly had to retake Aplia assignments becuase she reset them. Its a week after grades were due and I still havent gotten a grade, and she isnt replying to emails. dont take this professor if you want to actually learn econ
Thought I wouldn't take her compared to other teachers that are a lot harder but it was an awful mistake!! Never teaches anything related to the class, instructions are unclear as to what you have to do for assignments let alone when they are due. Do yourself a favor and absolutely do not take her.
If you actually want to learn about macro econ, do not take this class. She was still figuring out the attendance/syllabus by the 5th week in the semester. Aplia was 1/2 the grade, other half were blackboard postings. No due dates, reopens aplia assignments. do the aplia/blackboard postings, you get an A, You'd have to be really lazy to not pass.
She is literally all over the place with her teaching style. She can barely keep up with what she herself is talking about. The work is never graded and is posted all over the place. The syllabus was an absolute joke. Do not take this class. I learned nothing. Everything was online and it might as well been hybrid.
DON'T TAKE if you actually want to learn about econ. Don't even bother reading her syllabus bc it made no sense and she never followed due dates. There is so much homework (mostly online) but it is so time consuming & you don't learn anything in class, other than her personal life, yet we're required to show up. You'll never know your grade..
She is a bit disorganized, but very knowledgeable in the field. She is a very caring professor, usually answers your emails quickly and is willing to work with you. She does not have strict due dates which I personally like. I was nervous when I signed up after seeing her rating on here, but I think she's wonderfully eccentric.
Elmore honestly needs to retire. I have never attended a class that was this disorganized. She has no business teaching online. She doesn't understand it at all. My classmates and I had to beg her for a syllabus. She is all over the place and doesn't have a clue what's going on. Doesn't discuss class material at all, just goes on crazy rants. DON'T
What do I even say about Elmore... To keep it short, don't take her class; especially if it is online. When signing up for her class I read all the prior Rate My Professor reviews and collected that she's an unorganized, wild card of a teacher. I decided to take my chances... BAD IDEA. Listen to these reviews and save yourself.
the semester ends in two days and no one in my class has any clue of what grade they are going to get... What a mess is
I liked her class. You just have to be diligent and stay on top of the work because although there's a lot, it's all easy. Online exams and quizzes, discussion posts, and a couple of smaller assignments that you're allowed to work in a group. The people are complaining because she's disorganized and takes forever to grade.
TERRIBLE. she rambles about trump and weed but then expects you to be able to know anything about econ. do not take this lady if youre trying to get a remote good grade. shes terrible
