She is fun, sometimes she didn't explain herself; however she is a great teacher...

this teacher is great - she gives the homework during class time and gives you more then enought time to work on the assigment - also she makes you work in partners so be careful who you choose

Totally inflexible. If you do something she doesn't agree with, you'll know about it. She needed to be more willing to help students. She is easy, but is an awful person. In my opinion, she was incredibly rude. Not a bad teacher though.

I really enjoyed her class. Her lectures and interesting and you will learn a lot. For exams make sure you take good notes and read the text because that's where the questions will come from. She does provide you with a study guide so that helps a lot. Very helpful if you are unsure or confused about something.

Must come to class, there are plenty of class assignments+attendence. She gives hw assgn that require research online but don't require a lot of time. One group project with presentation is 50 points. Study guide for all tests. tests are simple from class notes and text but she will let u know exactly where to look in textbook. Fun class

She is really nice. Three tests and one group project. The tests are on the computer and really easy. She provides a study guide a week before so as long as you study you will do fine. You are only allowed to miss class twice before is starts affecting your grade. She is very knowledgeable and very nice. I would recommend taking her class.

Very nice professor who cares a lot about her students. She is knowledgeable of the material. Super nice and understanding. Highly recommend her for any classes she is teaching!

Teacher makes a simple subject, HARD. 3 papers, 2 exams, and 3 hw assign's. Takes attendence. Learned quite a bit from her. Also had CHDV 35F with her, wah-wah. Be prepared to do a lot of work.

Her lectures are practical and fun. She responds to emails and posts grades/important announcements in a timely manner. She's friendly if you have questions. Some of her assignments are "busy work", I'll admit. But it's still important experience and knowledge about working with children. She's awesome, and I'd love to have her again.

Professor Bersola-Nguyen is a terrific lecturer; class discussion is always enjoyable and interesting to learn because she engaged by asking the students what they think about certain topics. I don't know why others are saying that they hate her because she is great at teaching CHDV 131. Assignments, quizzes, and two midterms! Take her!

DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS! Yes the material is easy, but it's a ton of busy work on top of ur 40 hrs! She makes you buy her book which basically isn't even her writing, its just articles written by other people. the worst part is that you can't even sell it back! that's how she makes her money. The book is even more expensive than the class textbook!

This class has a lot of work and the book is a little confusing, but she is super helpful and always available at office hours. She is fun and lively and likes to sing to the class. I would take another class with her any day.

She's very into the subject. She's a nice, sweet professor. Pretty simple class. Get your hours done and you'll pass. Super handy taking this class while taking CHDV 35. So many of the things she talked about overlapped with my CHDV 35 class. Made things click a bit better.

Dr. Bersola-Nguyen is a wonderful instructor! She is very knowledgable about the information she teaches, and she ask open-ended questions that really provoke thought. Outside of the classroom, she only continues to be very helpful!

Attendance is mandatory. She takes away 50 points per absence. There's a quizzes every single week. Her class is so boring. She docks points for the tiniest things

Although she is strict with the work, she is very helpful and enjoys teaching the class. Just pay attention and you'll be fine. And don't procrastinate. You're in college - Stop looking for class to slack in. This is the whole point you're going to school.

Great teacher. I was stressing out about her class because I wouldn't get great grades on exams, but as long as you go to ALL the classes and do all observations (which are really easy) you will pass for sure. I ended up getting an A! Textbook is highly used and she responds to emails quick. VERY friendly teacher!

She takes attendance everyday. I feel like I am in high school with this class, all we did in class is have a class dicussion but when the test comes along its very difficult you basically have to teach yourself everything. She does allow open book but the test are really hard. Stay away!!

She is a super sweet woman! She gives a lot of work, but is very knowledgeable. She is very anal with APA style, but other than that she is an awesome teacher! Just make sure you attend every class!

She was nice and helpful. A little funny too LOL

Great teacher, really wants students to pass and I can say this because I had an issue in beginning of class and she accepted my late assignments. Attendance is mandatory, really easy quizes every week which she lets you take twice and gives you higher score. You will always have hw but its very easy. Book was hardly used but needed for quiz.

I would definitely take her class again. Her test have study guides and she emphasizes what is important in her lectures by repeating them or summarizing. There was a research paper but she goes over it step by step making it really easy. She offers extra credit, if you are willing to do it.

She was extremely helpful throughout the semester. Her tests are so hard, I'm pretty sure I failed the last one but still managed to get an A- in her class because participation is a must and the research paper is important too. Sit in the front of class, show up everyday, and work on the research paper and you'll pass.

Had her for CHDV 132. She is a good Professor attending class is kind of pointless because you review the material read for the quizzes but she does in class assignments and takes role so don't miss class. i really enjoyed doing my service learning hours for this class.

She's not as bad as people say. Very strict on attendance and nit-picky on everything. Can be rude, but she means well and expects excellence from students. Easy weekly quizzes based on readings. As long as you follow what she says she'll like you. Best part of class is doing service hours. Journals, project and paper to do for service cite.

Attendance is essential to passing, do not skip! Not hard, but high expectations on students and very picky about assignments. Weekly quizzes based on readings, 2 tests and 4 part paper. Quiz questions are test questions. Not great at answering lecture questions and makes APA format confusing. Study guides for tests. Easy, but must do work.

LOVE her!!! Awesome professor! Too bad I can't have her as my advisor. She really cares for her students and makes an effort to get to know them. I had her for CHDV 132 last semester and I still go to her for advice. The things I learned in her class are things that I can apply to real life. Loved my fieldwork experience too!

This is the third class I've had with Professor Irene. I had her for CHDV 30, 133, and now 132. She was the reason I changed my major from Criminal Justice. I really enjoy her teaching style. She's caring and makes everything so applicable. I'm graduating this semester!!! I'm really glad I've had her as my professor.

This is the second course that I have had with Professor. Bersola- Nguyen. She is a caring professor and you take a lot away from her courses. She is very accessible outside of class and offers great suggestions if you are willing to ask.

She is truly an amazing and caring professor. I have learned a lot in her class, and would take her again in a heart beat. Dont use your phone in class! She gives lots of in class work that can help or hurt your grade, so attend class, and show her respect, she will do the same for you.

Takes attendance every day. Show up, take the quizzes/exams, and do your parts for the Group Projects. You will need the textbook for the online quizzes & exams. Lecture/information heavy. Irene is nice and makes all criteria clear to understand. Shes Filipino and talks a lot about her culture.

She's honestly a great professor, just very by-the-book, but I respect that. Her lectures are super clear and organized and she's very nice. Barely passed with an A, but that was my fault. Only difficult things were some quizzes and the final project.

Overall a wonderful professor if you're not in your first year. If I had taken this as a freshman I would've been overwhelmed like most of my classmates. You have to make an effort, and if you talk with her outside of class she's very helpful.

She was very understanding, especially during this transition to online learning. There's weekly readings and quizzes that pertain to the lectures. She encourages class participation and really tries to involve the whole class. Not going to lie, the midterm and final was pretty hard for me. Many of the questions were on the quizzes, so remember it.

I had professor Irene for Fall 2019 and I enjoyed taking the class with her. You do have to work for your grade but as long as stay on top of all your readings then you can pass with a good grade. I would definitely take her class again & would recommend her! She is understanding and pushes her students to reach their potential.

I recommend taking this course with her! She is nice and explains the work properly and makes sure all the students understand. There was a good amount of work for the class but it was all helpful work that allows the students to learn about different careers. We have one to two assignments due each week and one big group project.

We have a group assignment but no presentations. You do have to go to class bc we usually have in class assignments. She has two assignments each week 1 of the assignments is due before class starts and 2 is due the following day. Overall, her class was pretty easy she provides examples for most assignments, so you know what she expects.
