Kelly Swain is a great instructor for PC Essentials. No textbook is actually required in order to pass this course because all the work is done online using myitlab.com!

Fashion 120 was my fear. I did not know much about computer when I started my program. I droped the course twice due to my fear of computer. After school ended April, Kelly adviced me to take this coures in the summer. Took her advice and started the class. Kelly was supportive, available outside of class,encouraging, caring and ready to help you.

Her classes consisted of majority in class assignments and that was about it. Gave lots of homework but truthfully I learned more in the homework than I did in class. Not a terrible Professor but could be more helpful in Class. Classes are short and tests are challenging definitely need to get your work done for this course or you won't pass.

She's an amazing teacher!!! if you have her then plzzzz take her ! you should be willing to put in the work, effort, time to pass this course or any course for that matter. NEVER SKIP HER CLASS or else you will be lost and will also lose the bonus attendance marks. I passed with a 94% in her class and i was never good at computers before.

This is hands down my favorite prof at Humber to date. I failed her class the first semester because I thought it was stupid and refused to do the work. I am currently working on my business plan and taking her class two years later and I dont think there is a more useful course in the Business School. Do the work and the marks will follow.

One of the worst teachers. The course she teaches, which she is really bad at helping students, not lenient at all and this course you'll fail forget even if you do EVERYTHING, with her she wants to see how fast you could do the test. "80 marks" on average in less than 40 minutes. Go to Lake shore the teachers actually care and support you in

I came into this class being very uncomfortable with computers and I can honestly say that I've learned a lot. There's a good amount of homework every week but it isn't excessive, so as long as you stay on top of it you'll be fine. As for her personality, it really doesn't bother me. Her job is to give you an education not coddle you.

Kelly is a very detailed and thorough prof. Through online learning, her course was very comprehensive and helpful as she recorded all classes and had excellent demonstration videos which helped a lot. She does not require you to do home work assignments at a specific time but I urge you to do it at least a week before the exams,they are detailed.

She doesn't care not one bit about any of her students, She will tell you if you end up submitting anything late please email your professor to discuss it, and then even if it's a technical difficulty on her part and your assignment is only late by 5 minutes you don't just lose a %, its an automatic 0. literally very unprofessional and careless.

Never try to discuss anything with her, you will indeed get nowhere.

If I could stop students from picking her class I personally would. Her grading criteria are not clear, you will indeed fail if you ever rely on her to teach you or help you with something, you better show up to class 10min ahead even if online or you will be marked absent and you will lose marks. Very rude and you would regret reaching out to her.
