Karah Street is "Superwoman"! She devotes time in aiding students between BOTH teaching and grading her anatomy/physiology classes. On top of that, she actively parents two children.

Karah has her "fans" but I can speak honestly because I was first in the class. As a teacher she is very good and will teach you well, but as a person I have zero respect for her and thus would never take a class with her again. Take Dr. I and save yourself the ridiculous tirades. Patho in class will make pathophys later a piece of cake. Paranoid!!

Professor Street gives lectures and strokes her ego at the same time. She deliberately confuses people with her pretentious and superfluous remarks regarding her curriculum with the sole intent of showcasing her superior biology knowledge. She can come off as being pompous at times which is fine, but at least do so in a productive manner.
