Overall really nice and easy going. A lot of her slides are word for word from the textbook but I recommend going to class for repetition sake (midterms (2) and final are SO specific). There are 2 assignments that were fun to do and easy to get A+ on. Interesting content, a lot to memorize though. She often brought treats to class for students!

Drop the class right now if you want to preserve your GPA. I am a A student, so this is not the whining of someone that isn't willing to put in the effort for a grade. This prof is very nice, but a ridiculously hard marker with pretty unfair and super specific midterms. AVOID.

This class is a horribly boring, expensive audiobook. The absolute most useless information I have ever received in undergrad and I have taken some bird classes. Prof is unhelpful and repeats the same basic concepts so often as to make five slides last an hour. You won't fail, but you'll wish you had taken something, anything else.

Textbook is a waste of money, all you need is on the slides or said in class. Any questions asked, she was usually not able to answer. She'd either write them down and google them on break or someone else in the class would answer. She's very sweet/caring! But not experienced enough in the field to teach this course, so it was kind of a let down.

Prof. Mileva is interesting and passionate about the content she teaches. Her exams are straightforward, but you'll do better if you go to class since she adds information to the slides verbally. Her content can be dull, and she talks about her son a lot, which helps the content be more relatable at times, but can also lead to unfocused lectures.

Dr. Mileva genuinely cares about her students. Course material was easy to understand and her lectures were concise, clear, and very engaging. Tests are well spread out, and she went above and beyond to ensure her students understood all of the material necessary for tests. Highly recommend!

Super kind and bright! She emphasizes all the most important concepts to know and quiz/exam questions are mostly examples (application questions) so make sure you understand all the concepts and their differences. All tests are based off of the textbook so taking a few notes while you read through might not be a bad idea

She doesn't really know the material all that well - she has to look up stuff each time you ask her a question. Her lectures aren't necessary - the textbook is what is tested, she just does the videos to clarify more difficult concepts. However, I think her videos are interesting and worth watching. She makes it seem like she doesn't want questions

I don't understand why her rating is so high, she spends the majority of her class time talking about her own mental health or just random off topic things. Her slides provide like no information and she gives no extra credit or any form of study materials. basically like going in blind when you write her exam

Very passive aggressive and won't give extra time of assignment! I could say a lot about her but she was nice enough so if you don't have to speak to her personally you will be fine.

Dr. Mileva was the sweetest prof- she genuinely cared about us and how we were doing. Despite being online, she tried her best to make the synchronous lectures as engaging as possible, and it made everything so much better. The quizzes and exam were super easy; pay attention in class and do the TopHat readings and you'll be good to go!

This class is evaluated by 4 quizzes and 1 final which are really easy by just reading the textbook. She is a nice and caring prof but she jumps over topics a lot which causes me headache by trying to understand the topics covered in class. But it is really easy to get A+ since she quizzes based on the textbook.

I love Prof Mileva. Her class was overall super accessible and organized considering it was asynchronous. The class was so engaging and interesting b/c she has a young son and she would relate the course content to her real life experiences, making it easier to remember things. Overall, the best uni course I've taken.

Seems like a nice prof, but lectures often felt super heavy with lots of details. Although references to her own experiences and personal anecdotes may have helped some students understand concepts, I found it generally made lectures drag on significantly longer than required. Grading seemed fair and prof was easy to access, so some positives here.

I like Professor Mileva. She is very passionate about the subject she is teaching. 2021W might have been a bit of missed opportunity here as the class took to online format and I think she is a professor that will do better in in-person lectures.

Prof. Mileva was a fantastic teacher, and I'm glad to have taken this class with her! She did her best to make the most of online learning, and was very accommodating. Her lectures were asynchronous which can be tricky to keep on top of, but the content was very clear and interesting, which made the whole experience much better!

Love this prof! Lectures are interesting and she uses a lot of real life stories to help with the concepts. Definitely go to class, her slides are quite bare and she adds info during the lectures. Exams were fair and based off slides and the additional info she gives in class. You don't need the textbook if you go to class.

She's a nice person! Her exams are pretty fair. I wish the paper had more clear feedback though. Also the final was 106 questions which I think is pretty unnecessary for this class... it's hard to sit down and think for that many questions. Overall she was good!

By far my favourite professor so far! Incredible lecturer and super caring and open to questions. Content was interesting and she added personal experiences from family and her clients to supplement which help a lot with understanding. Exams and paper were straightforward.

Professor Mileva is incredibly sweet and engaging. Lectures feature real-life stories that help with understanding the content. Exams are fair, but attendance is a must. Unstuckstudy was a lifesaver for preparing alongside the textbook.
