Professor Casanova is a very cute lady, she is nice and knows what she is teaching. The problem is that her english is poor, so her explanations are very confusing and she does not understand what the students are asking from her. I am taking the class now and am desperate because I do not understand anything, neither do my classmates.

She can go a little fast when shes teaching but if you ask her for help she'll do her best to explain the material. Very nice and cares about the students as long as you put interest and show up to class. Homework is very easy and not too much. Tests are like her reviews and she lets you retake if you dont do well. If you study, you pass.

The class itself is all online, but attendance is mandatory. You will work on modules on the computer for the entire class. Once you finish, she will give you a review for the final, very straightforward class. However, when asking for help, she doesn't really show you how to do anything. She just flies through the question, solving on her own.

She doesn't actually teach, she just gives problems. When you ask for help, she doesn't explain very clearly, goes way too fast, and skips over things since she's done it so many times. If you're just trying to get the class over with, she's fine. But if you actually want to learn, I wouldn't recommend her.
