Great person but has no clue how to teach. No explanations or any sort of guidance. Be prepared to work hard
Good topics are discussed. Her lectures are done last minute & there's little guidance in the class structure; you'll work hard in the class but it's worth the work. She knows a lot so ask the right questions and get everything you can out of the class. You really don't need the book it was a waste of money in my opinion. Be ready to read a lot!
shes a nice lady but she has no clue on how to teach. she just reads from the book and her explanations are confusing. there were many people in my class that failed the midterm because she doesnt know how to explain things in a timely manner. everything is rushed. there is really no homework besides reading.
She's very relaxed when it comes to homework, but her tests are quite challenging and really require you to know your stuff. People got fairly low grades on the midterm, but she did put a big curve on it, so she can be pretty fair with grading. Just don't do what I did and learn everything the day before the final...really take the time to read a
Great Person; Horrific professor! DOES NOT prepare for class...bad communicator : (
she really can't teach. kinda just talks about blah. really useless class. waste of money
very difficult professor. i didn't really enjoy her class
She does not teach at all. Her method is to give you a ton of work and hopes that you learn from it. It's always up to you, which method you will benefit from the most. But I will never consider taking her class again.
i am currently in her class and by far she is the worst teacher i have ever had... attendace is not mandatory bc all she does is tell u what to highlight in the book... i was really excited to take this class and now i want to drop it! DO NOT TAKE HER if you cant each yourself! avoid her by all means... she is a nice person but horrible teacher
DONT TAKE HER!! horrible teacher, relies HEAVILY on the book, hard to pay attention in class b/c all you do is highlight definitions and she expects you to understand everything right away. midterm is SUPER hard, nobody finished on time, take someone else if possible!!!
AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!!!! You'll be doing youself a favor. Unless you want to teach yourself?
RUN! RUN! ...run far FAR AWAY!! Saying she is the worst teacher ever would be an understatement. She is very knowledgeable on the topic but is the farthest thing from a teacher. anyone else would be better. NO one finished the midterm it was impossible. Says one thing and does another and takes forever to post grades.
The class was very intense and time consuming. Given this was an online course, the professor did an excellent job of explaining things when anyone was stuck. She was very helpful in answering questions. Weekly conference calls were held and attendance wasn?t necessary. The calls were recorded so you could listen to them any time during the week.
I learned a ton from this class...I have read the comments and I can't understand. She is one of the best professors I have had at DePaul AND she helped me land my first job! She knows a lot and you have to work very hard. She cares about her students and helps you learn.
i would like to know who professor pope help land a job. she only taught one 303 section last quarter and i dont think that she was helpful at all. dont get me wrong she is a wonderful person but as a professor she is horrible.
She was responsive to email questions, but she didn't grade homework quickly. We took both the midterm and final without knowing how we did on our homework. Her Blackboard site was kind of a mess, old lectures and missing various items due to "technical" problems.
Great teacher! Her material is extensive, but for crying out loud do the in class work before you get to class! It's on the syllabus, though not required! You wont feel like an idiot when she burns through the material due to time constraints. Plenty of extra credit before the midterm. :)
She's a nice person and wants everyone to do well, but you really have to put in the time outside of class if you want to do good. All the work is done in class, therefore no assigned homework but she expects you to do all the problems on your own time. There are 2 exams and if you get an A or B on both then you don't have to take the final.
Loved the class and all the extra credit before midterm only thing I hated was the COOKIE PROJECT other than that enjoyed the class
She's teaching managerial accounting for online class. At first she's very responsive and replying all emails that I sent almost immediately. Towards the end of the quarter, she seems like disappeared and never replied to emails.
This class was phenomenal. I took an online version of ACC 555 - and since she gave us her home and cell phone numbers, it was easy to get her help when the homework was too tough. If anything, this class was almost too easy, even though I'm not an accountant (though easiness is not a bad thing if your'e still learning)
This professor is a fireball! Highly recommend e book with homework helper! The hmwk cases require thorough understand of material. Highlight of class is her research and interviews which make this class like a CSI of cost acctng. Do cases before Wimba for most help. Had dinner with Aaron Beam - founding/ fallen CFO of Healthsouth because of PP.
Great professor. Goes over the problems in a way that is logical and she does them the same way every time, that way you know how to handle any quest. Gives alot of materials/problems to practice so you can study for the tests. I studied for a week and got an A on one of the tests. Doesn't curve. She really wants the students to learn. U can tell.
Great professor. She is ready to help anytime. It's best to read the chapters before class because she goes through the material quickly, so this way you'll be familiar with the topic. Professor Pope also gives great review before the tests. Also, if you are satisfied with your grade, you don't have to take the final.
Exam problems are mostly from the optional homework assignments and not really from the assigned case homework she does assign which I thought was odd. Overall, the class was interesting. I like reading about the 2 accounting fraud stories. If you take this class online, make sure you review the optional questions.
Not very organised and is very defensive. will never take another class.
Pope is a really good professor. As long as you study and keep up with the class you should ace her tests. Make sure to study what she tells is going to be on the test because it is. She is funny and has a great personality.
She is a great professor! She tells you exactly what will be on the test and as long as you study that you will do great. Plus the final is optional!
By far she is one of the best professor's at DePaul... She tells you whats going to be on test, had many review sessions, I recommend reading Chapter before class lectures and Study H.W. sets problems. You will get an A in class.
Professor Pope is one of the best!! Take her if you can, I promise if you are a hard working student you will NOT regret!Very nice and helpful, just study and you will do well!
she was a pretty good... she tells you exactly what is going to be on the test, so there is no surprises ...just study hard and you would get that A
Great online class. Pope gives clear directions on what to study for tests, the cases. There are Wimba online sessions every Sunday and more are required where she goes thru all the chapters assigned, responds to questions on the case problems assignments. Highly recommended. Final exam optional. Books on white collar crime were great.
Anyone who thinks Pope's class is too hard shouldn't be an accounting major. She makes it extremely easy to pass with an A if you actually study. She clearly explains and teaches the material in a way that is easy to understand and learn. Great professor. Earned an A and didn't have to take the final. Would definitely recommend! One of the few good accounting professors at DePaul.
Great professor. She explains everything crystal clear. Make you sure to study for the tests, they are hard. Take this professor if you can.
Easy online class. She is very helpful. Did not need to buy textbook, can find online.
Awesome teacher! Really loves the material she teaches and keeps it very interesting. Only issue is that she doesn't respond to emails so if you miss anything you won't get any response.
Amazing professor. Loves the topic she teaches, and she makes you love it too. Kept the night class interesting with different styles of teaching like videos, handouts, lectures, and hands on activities. Very clear on what you will be tested on. Wish she taught more graduate level classes so I could take her again!
She is a great professor and explains everything you need to know for the 3 tests. They are medium-hard. Make sure you go over the homework problems. You do not need to take the final if you're satisfied with your grade. Great personality and lectures
She gives you everything you need to know but she gets very defensive when you ask a question. Buttt she's really nice and very passionate about accounting. She makes the course fun and easy through her own way of teaching.
She made class very fun and engaging. She brings in guest speakers who their personal experiences with fraud, and she relates those stories to class material. There were online cases/quizzes and a couple papers, but nothing too bad. Overall a great class and a very fun professor.
Prof. Pope is a bad teacher. I do not understand why I pay for a class and i have to stnd speakers and she shows a movie. I want to be taught accounting. It was frustrating. She is funny, but this does not compensate the lack of teaching and effort on her part. Overall, another bad class. If you want to learn something, do not take her class.
Please take her for accounting!! Why? Because she gives you everything that you need for the exam she doesnt try to make the class hard. All homework and quizzes are examples of exam questions so study them and pay attention to what she says in class because it is useful and youll understand accounting easily!
Professor Pope is one of my favorite professors at DePaul! Makes the material very easy to understand, available for questions over the phone/text, gives great examples for tests. I wish she taught more undergraduate classes, would definitely take again!
super fair instructor, you'll probably like her as a person (does a lot of yelling, but she cares for her students) not good at the actual act of teaching. doesn't give you the resources you need to self teach either-- if you are reading this prof pope give practices problems WITH ANSWERS so students can actually check if they got them correct!
REALLY bad prof. Not a good teacher, not enough practice problems either. Hard exams. It wouldn't be that bad if she wasn't so bad at teaching. If you want to teach yourself everything, find/buy your own materials, just show up for the exams, and never see her again take this class. If you want your teacher to actually TEACH you, skip this prof.
Shes a good professor that needs to go further into the examples she gives in class. She's funny and will yell at you jokingly and wants everyone to do well. The first test is harder than the second and the final is OPTIONAL. Great engaging class but expect her to flex on you every class with all of her out of class accomplishments.
Heard from a lot of speakers, and was amazingly presented with how fraud can happen works, and the motives and the real people behind it. Very informative class
She gets pretty annoyed when you ask her repetitive questions. Lectures are from the slides provided by the book. Be prepared to teach yourself with some help and study ALOT outside of class to truly understand material.
There should be a tag stating, "GET READY TO TEACH YOURSELF". She is a nice approachable person, but her teaching skills are questionable. She wants you to learn the material just from the powerpoints. I wish she could work a problem showing the logic behind the terms.
The time spent talking about herself could be used to actually teach us students how to do the problems. Do not ever admit you don't know how to do the problem----she's gonna show everyone anyways--otherwise she will throw you under the bus and humiliate you. She's got an attitude problem for sure.
Very very caring, always willing to help students out. However, she is bossy and everything needs to be done her way. Overall, not a bad Professor and the class is easy
Professor Pope can sometimes come off as rude, but, she means well. Shes passionate about the subject and wants you to learn the material rather than just memorizing info. Makes you work for a good grade.
I wish I could have taken Professor Pope in person. So, this is only a judgement of her online course. Each week is super straight-forward. She covers about 2 chapters each week, and there is homework due the following week. 1 midterm, 1 final, and an easy analytical project. Read the chapters, watch her lectures and you're golden.
Professor Pope is super genuine and there to help her students. There are lectures each week that takes about an hour and a quick homework and quiz due every week. She is always there for help and will honestly help you pass if you need help with anything. TAKE HER!
She's great and she's famous. She's understanding and will work with you if you talk with her.
There was a huge portion that included an interactive game played through redflag mania, which was interesting. When getting into the site at first was a little difficult because there seemed to be two different sites that weren't connected to each other, but both claimed to be redflag mania sites.
Great professor all around. I'm not an accounting major, but the class couldn't be easier. The lectures are never boring and she explains accounting methods very clearly in a step-by-step process.
Very good professor and a great person, she's super responsive and the course is designed to not eat too much of your time. Fairly straightforward, explains everything and gives examples in class, definitely make sure you are in class every day. If I had one complaint it's the MyLab quizzes, they look nothing like the homework and are impossible.
Professor Pope is very nice and accessible. Her "tests" are short and easy. The only thing I will really complain about is the volume of homework she gives through the textbook, they take hours to complete and are insanely difficult because the textbook doesn't explain how to do them.
The class itself is pretty straightforward, but her organization is some of the worst I've seen. It seems like she makes up what to do for a week on the fly, leading to her D2L being disorganized. One week, we had a test and six assignments, all due the following week. If you take Kelly, don't be surprised that you'll have no idea what to do.
One of the worst professors I've ever taken. She sets due dates on the fly and is borderline impossible to contact her via email or phone. She's snarky, will make you feel awful for asking questions, and gives out so much homework. I had to take her because she was the only option, but I would never take her again.
Professor Pope is wonderful when she is present and ready to teach, but this only happens for about 5% of the course. You will be stuck watching her short movies that have the same level of quality as a Hallmark Christmas special. You will not find lectures, engaging assignments, feedback, clear instructions, or easy communication in this course.
As a returning student with 20+ years of experience, I must say Professor Pope was awesome!! I really appreciated her real life examples of fraud in America. Also, the work on Red Flag mania was fun. I highly recommend anyone who's interested in entering the forensic accounting side of audit. Take her!!
She's great if you have a basic understanding of accounting and read the book a bit. She isn't hard, but she is proud of her accomplishment, as she should be. She reads the reviews here, so she tries to be better. She is easily one of the most outstanding teachers people from different colleges talk about her and what she uncovered. Great professor
Over the quarter, I asked Professor Pope four questions in total via text (because she doesn't have office hours) and I got 0 responses. When it came to our final projects, I received a 67% when I should've had 100% all because there was a glitch on the online platform and she didn't do anything even when I brought it up. Nice lady though.
Professor Pope is a very nice and approachable professor, she makes it easy to reach out and resolve any questions or problems that may arise. The class was pretty easy and was a combination of textbook material and public speakers. She was a little disorganized and it was a little hard to figure out what was due when, otherwise an easy class.
Absolutely LOVED her! Very great teacher and mentor definitely would recommend.
She was very good at explaining things with real examples from her life. The midterm is an exam taken in class and you can use notes. Covers all the readings and slideshows so take notes (would recommend merging all slideshows so for midterm can just search for specific words). The final is a group project (~10 page paper and presentation).
dont know why she was rated so low. Such a great prof, so glad i did Bus 101 w her. She helps with you everything.
Great professor, extremely straightforward, and is always there to help if you have any questions.
DOES NOT REPLY TO EMAILS OR MESSAGES, LACKS ORGANIZATION, DAY DREAMS, AND HAS AN EGO.
Really caring professor she likes when you participate, but it's not mandatory.
Genuinely the most useless class I have ever taken. Professor Pope loves to teach about herself, but nothing else. This class felt like a very strange advertisement for her. At least the assignments are easy so you can do well while learning nothing.
I'm not sure why there is so many negative reviews. Professor Pope is the best professor I had this quarter. She is great at explaining the material while keeping her students engaged. She is also very funny. Overall a great professor!
Very good professor, she is passionate about accounting and it shows. For our class we had a fun project and I really appreciated this it was so fun in my opinion I was also able to learn more. I wish she offered more accouting classes. Take her trust me.
I loved Prof Pope as a person and her lectures were very interesting. She's had an amazing career which was rlly interesting to hear about. Personally, her teaching methods did not resonate w me and her study guides and packets did not match the difficulty of the exams.
Do not take. She just yaps and yaps about herself
Avoid at all costs. Useless class and teaching, I honestly did not learn anything during her class. She thinks she is the greatest thing ever to walk the earth and her ego is larger than the classroom. She does not teach anything other than how great she is. Professor Pope should not be allowed to teach.
she's cool and all but she seems like she doesn't know what she's doing most of the time. She changes the test from online to in paper a week before. All I have to say is survive this class b/c she's the only one who teaches it.
Professor Pope is great at explaining problem-solving, but she is very disorganized. It often takes her weeks to grade things. She also switches formats on exams suddenly, which makes it difficult to study in advance. It's definitely a harder class but she does answer questions quickly if you text/email her. She can also come off as condescending.
Professor Pope is an inspiring CPA and female leader, but her cost/managerial accounting class lacked engagement. Instruction was minimal and assignments were posted with little notice making the course feel disorganized and frustrating. The expensive textbook was rarely used, and tests were lengthy with complex, multi-step problems.
The class is extremely disorganized assignments and tests are often delayed or not announced until the last minute. The exams barely align with the practice materials, leaving you unsure of what to expect. Her teaching is also inconsistent, as she frequently becomes confused by her own solutions.
Class is low effort and waste of time.She uses a ton of videos, speakers, and pre-prepared content so she doesn't have to actually teach anything.Loves to push her opinions and talk about her career work onto us even when it's barely relevant.I thought there was very little value provided in this course given that it's supposed to be Master's level
prof kelly is a harsh professor, but she is nice. she likes when students participate and gets antsy when shes having conversations w herself. majority of the course we work in groups, and we barely use the textbook. if u participate and are actually paying attention u should have no issues. the ppl in these reviews clearly didnt bother to study.
Professor just likes to listen to her voice. Half of the course is advertising to buy her book, listening to her podcast, and her interactive puzzle thing. She's passive aggressive when students don't turn on their camera in class, and also when no one responds to her. First time in 6 years where I have learned nothing from a class. Easy A at least
She disrespected her students' opinions. She needs to understand that she is talking to her students, not her fraud suspects. Instructions for the final project were unclear. She emailed at 10 pm saying she deleted all submissions for not following instructions of one submission per group, which were never clearly given. Told us we will receive 0.
I really found Dr. Pope to be inspirational. Say what you want, if you care for your grade and put in work she will see you. Hope to take her courses again!
