Im in the class now. She is so responsive - I always get an answer within a few minutes - at most in a few hours. Sends helpful reminders and shares the entire term so you can work at your own pace. Wish she had more classes!!!

Love the flexibility to work at my own pace. I was able to sprint through most of the material before my other courses back logged. As has been said below she is really fast to reply to e-mails. I had a fried that had never used social media in the class and she was so patient. Highly recommend her and the social media class.

I have never had a professor this terrible, her grading my be very clear but just when you think you have a good paper she goes and screws you over and marks as hard as I have ever seen. I have never seen a prof this picky on marking. Sure she says use APA format but I have never seen a prof dock me marks for putting th in 5th for the date.

Loved this prof! She was responsive and caring. She knew the content in and out, offered weekly tutorials (which I participated in almost every week), returned assignments quickly (and the exam the same day!). TAs sometimes marked hard, but she resolved any issues fairly and quickly so both the TA and I learned through the experience. Fantastic!

Very relevant course material which includes a lot of very recent required reading articles to keep the course fresh. She is really accessible and response to emails quickly.

We are going through a crazy time with COVID right now and she has been so kind to all of us. She responds quickly, has adapted the course quickly and has a huge heart. I wish I had more profs like her. She's super compassionate to her students and has been very reassuring whenever I email her. THANK YOU PROFESSOR VERNER!

I just finished Cyberethics and it was by far one of the best experiences I have had. Prof. Verner had clear expectations and was so supportive of all of us during the current crisis. She answers e-mails within minutes most times and returns grades very quickly as well. I wish she taught more courses - or that more instructors were like her!

In cyber ethics now. She is so helpful and clear. The course has been designed to let us do what we need to do at a pace that is good for us. Really flexible schedule so we can manage other work. Highly recommended.

Dr. Verner is the best professor I have ever come across at the university. She cares so much about every student and extends the deadlines, no questions asked. She responds within 5 minutes. Her grading is extremely fair. I finished the course with an A+ but that was because of her/the GA's consistent feedback. She is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING <3

By far my favourite prof. She is literally perfect. So understanding of students' situation and very easy to talk to. She's very enthusiastic about what she does. Class is more of a conversation than a lecture. She extended deadlines multiple times just to take pressure off students close to finals. Study the terms and your golden for the final.

My favourite prof... she is well organised, experienced, brings in new information to keep her course fresh and is ALWAYS available to her students. I took her course in Winter 2021 at the height of the pandemic and felt like she cared so much for us even though she never really met any of us! Strongly recommend her and this course.

Amazing prof!! super easy class, assignments take some time but nothing crazy. Her lectures are easy to follow, you have to attend at 3 for credit. 4 easy discussion posts to do over the semester. Exams are straight from the review she gives. Super understanding and kind prof as well I absolutely loved her! Take this class with her!!! She's awesome

Wow professor Verner is just the best. She is so organized, such a fair teacher and is so understanding towards students. More profs need to be like her because she is one of a kind. Very fair workload and you learn a lot of really cool stuff. She is passionate about her work. If you get the opportunity to take her class, do it do it do it,

Great professor. Definitely take this class with her. Should be able to achieve mid 90 as long as you stay on top of assignment deadlines as well as any other submissions required. Midterm and Final is easy since professor tells you what to study. Do the exam review (can get the answers from textbook) and you should ace it.

Professor Verner was extremely helpful with feedback and provided several resources to help us understand concepts instead of only lecturing. The textbook was available for free online. She gives several opportunities to improve your grade. Discussion posts, papers, powerpoints, and provides a study guide for the midterm & final. Highly Recommend!

Professor Verner might be the most GOATed professor at the U. This girl is only the most chill, awesome, easy professor I've ever had. Assignments are super chill, she is super nice and if you're brain dead you can get a mid 90 in this class. 100% would take again, one of the easiest classes and best professors the U has highly recommended.

Dr. Verner legit makes this course so everyone who takes it can succeed. There are several assignments but as long as you try, you'll likely get close to perfect. She has weekly discussions and you only need to do four, you also only have to attend class three times to get marks. She wants students to do well. Highly recommend!
