Not toooo bad, but final was significantly more difficult than midterm. She is very lazy and moody. Read text if you expect to do well. Bring multi colored pens for she will go mental on graphs. Overall not bad, try P. Kennedy :((

I don't know what all you people are talking about. Found she was a good instructor. YOu just have to be a critical thinker and figure things out for yourself. Found to final quite fair, and it actually moved my mark up

This class was one of the more interesting courses that I have taken as a econ major. I dont know why all the poor ratings below, maybe because econ is new to you. I thought she was a good prof. You just need to study the class notes.

i think this is one of the easiest upper level course in econ...and it was really interesting too!

I think she's an excellent instructor and projects the course material well in lecture. Her tests are not always easy, but at least she is making an effort to scale where necessary. A good prof!

Very hard; but she tried her best in trying to scale the marks to a reasonable marks for the students.

Not an easy prof. A lot of materials to study. But she's very helpful and clear during the office hour.

She's a nice prof. Lots of people don't like her because she's disorganized and keeps telling students to be quite. Those I agree with. Besides those however, she's pretty good. She's also really good when you talk to her personally

She did many pointless things(I mean what's the point of giving everyone 4 extra marks on the first mid-term and at the same time made the average 4 points higher as well?). Mid-terms = long and tricky.

A very good prof (certainly not great, but okay). Even tho the midterms are quite challenging, she teaches her materials well. Her jokes are quite funny too!!

onli her exams are quite hard, her lectures are quite good, nice notes ^^

She's a good professor and has good notes. She makes horrible midterms and finals though where class averages are 45%, and are curved to 60% (which doesn't do much for you). Econ 103 is hard and like this either way, so this is normal I guess, but her tests suck.

Good Prof w/ Detailed notes. HARD/Long Midterms, but a fair final exam. Lectures were helpful, though the exams expected you to go above and beyond what was learnt.

just had her last sem. she was nice but tough midterms. because the class average on the midterms was so low she made the final easier i believe. great notes and very clear.

awesome proff!!!!I learned so much in that class...though..it was a lot of work but was worth it.she knows what she is doing!lovedddddddddddd that course

I really like her. She is a nice person. Her lecture notes can be confusing at times, but if you actually go to her office and ask questions, you will do well in this course.

Hmm, she got a bad rating, but is a terrific prof. The course in interesting, but if you're not into it, I don't know how you'll do well. If you can relate this to the real world, you'll do fine. Lots of 'why' questions and stuff like essays.

Some people said her text is actually helpful..I dont know... b/c in 381 there was only her note and these notes were really helpful and clear and easy to understand. Labour market is interesting and there isn't much work required for the course overall, except 1 actually research assignment

She knows her stuff. You need to attend classes as her notes are quite different from the textbook. Do not skip tutorials as questions discussed there are likely to come out in the exams. Her exams are not easy but if you study her notes, you should be fine

Her notes are complement to the textbook. Do the practice questions for the midterm and final. Recommended

she is nice but the stuff she teaches are really hard. the TAs are helpful.

very straight forward. no tricky questions in midterms. assignments are easy.

she is really funny and her lectures are really clear. However, she speaks really quick. If English is not your first language, maybe you need 2 weeks to get used to her speed.

Great lecturer. Fair marker.

Amazing prof! Lectures are very engaging... Exams are straight forward and very similar to assignment questions. Definitely take her class. Jane ROCKS! :)

T he best prof ever!!!!

ECON435 has been my most favorite class that I have taken at SFU. Jane's lectures are engaging, the assignments are relevant, her feedback is constructive and her grading is fair. The knowledge and skills I have learned in this class are extremely applicable to real-world problems. I would highly recommend this course to all ECON students.

She's absolutely lovely. Definitely recommend for upper-div. classes. Her jokes will make you smile, class is always a comfortable learning environment, and her feedback is incredibly valuable for anybody planning on doing future statistical work/study. Thanks Jane!

Jane is an amazing prof. Her course might be difficult. But she is very kind. Tries to help her students.

Course was graded largely on weekly assignments and quizzes, so you have to stay on top of things. That being said Jane is specific with what she expects from the assignments so its not hard to do well on them. Overall great prof.

She really cares about the students' understanding and makes the tests exactly what she taught in class. I didn't even need to study outside of her lectures and participation activities, because they were so helpful.
