Avery self centered teacher. Even makes you watch her latin dancing videos of herself. She cancelled 2 classes and did not reduce the workload. Not very understanding. Did not give any grades before the drop date!!!
She's pretty cool.She doesnt make the class boring, she tries to keep everyone awake. But, she does give a lot of notes.
She is very good, tells you what you need to know to prepare a speech, i have now right now, i would definetly recommend her, TAKE HER if you need this class, you will learn a lot. It is very easy
Mindy is amazing! I definitely didn't want to drag my but to a class on a Saturday morning, but this professor does an excellent job at keeping the material interesting. Speeches are well layed out in an easy to follow format and tests are normally take-home format. She is also very helpful!
She's the best teacher ever. I dreaded the speech class because everyone said that speech would be hard, but after being in her class, i LOVE it. She's EC friendly, and she's an extremely nice teacher. As long as you take the notes, you'll pass easily
Ms. Peck is a great teacher that knows how to make a boring subject interesting! She does not count off if you have to miss class however she does count for percipitation! I would reccomand her if you need this class... I has helped me in my professional life in more than one way!.... Choose her.
She is very nice and understanding. Spells out to the letter how the speechs are supposed to go. No homework besides research.
she is great! FUNNY! she is so funny and keeps the class involved. i looked forward to going to her class. she's easy to work with and if you stick to what she says, you're likely to pass her class with a good grade. she's great
VERY good teacher! I've learned SO much in this class! I have definitely improved in my speaking, and have learned alot. She tries very hard to make class interesting. and uses several examples so that what she is teaching seems more applicable. Very easy class, and very FUN class! Definitely take her if you can!
This class was nice. Mindy made the class interesting. She has a story for every topic. Notes are very imperitive. She gives exams for a speech class, which doesn't help with giving a speech. But the class is interesting.
Unorganized, philosophy on grading sucks.
This teacher is FANTASTIC. She made each class period interesting. She will go above and beyond to help you with your speech. If you follow your guidelines, you should make an A. There are 2 tests. Just review your notes and you'll do fine. If you have a fear of public speaking, this is the teacher for you.
This professor is very nice and interesting. this class is mostly taking notes, 3 speeches, 2 test, and other simple assignments such as a resume and cover letter. she is not the easiest grader, so i wouldnt say this is a easy A class. but maybe a easy B
Very fun and exciting personality! Makes a required class worth attending.
MS. PECK IS VERY EXCITED ABOUT TEACHING! SHE CARES AND UNDERSTANDS WHAT SHE TALKS ABOUT IN CLASS... SO DO NOT DOUBT HER. HER GRADING IS FARE FOR THE SIMPLE REASON THAT SHE TELLS YOU HOW IT IS OR HOW IT SHOULD BE. HER CANDER PERSONILITY MAKSE CLASS FUN AND EASY TO CATCH ON TO. THIS WAS MY FIRST PUB. SPEEKING CLASS...LEARNED A LOT! SO TAKE HER.
very specific on grading. not a ad teacher. speeches required alot of work but werent bad. if you have to take it, take the classs with her.
Great Lady, very passionate. Do as she says and you should get an A. First take home test was very comprehensive, so start early and leave nothing to the imagination. My first test grade was an 86, highest in class. The final test was much easier 96. The course was an easy A for me, but I have no problem speaking to a crowd. I give Mindy TWO THUMBS
Professor Peck is awesome! Every class is hilarious. She's really nice and will do anything to help you. Speeches follow a strict outline but aren't too difficult to do as long as you practice. There are two written tests that are difficult, though, so pay attention and take notes, and you'll do great; speeches matter more for the grade anyway.
Just make sure to study in advance for her test as they are very comprehensive and the highest grade for the test in our class was a very low B. Other than that this class is easy.Mindy really brings out the best in everyone who attends her class and is also very entertaining! Loved the class and passed with a high B average.
At first I dreaded the thought of taking public speaking, but this class was exactly what i needed. I have definitely become a better public speaker, thanks to Ms. Peck. She makes the class fun, answers questions, & gives helpful feedback to all speeches. I would recommend this class to the people seeking to become better public speakers.
She has a really nice speaking voice and makes her classes fun and interesting. Tests are a bit harder but if you study there shouldn't be a problem. It was one of my favorite classes!
Ms. Peck is a great teacher. She's very helpful, keeps the class interesting, and makes it easy to get an A. You do have to put out the effort, but she's available to help you. I definitely recommend this class to someone who's not afraid to actually do work.
Mindy is AMAZING!! take her for any type of speech! but beware she does go at an extremely fast pace.
A very entertaining class. Her lectures make it easier to go to class. She's very funny but also a great prof. She teaches you not only the subject but skills you can use in ur professional/personal life. Not an easy A, but definately An easy B.
Professor Peck is a good professor, just pay attention to the study guides and you will do fine.
Ms. Peck makes her lectures interesting.She was very funny. Her tests were VERY hard to understand. The class overall was great but it was a lot of work. She is really bad at getting back to you on emails so make sure you email her asap if you need an answer or help.
Excellent teacher. She understands that speech is not for everyone. She teaches around the concept that it is "ok to be nervous." Ms. Mindy is the teacher for you if speech is a class that you dread taking.
Very helpful, makes the material funny and interesting. Good Professor!
She's my favorite teacher so far...hillarious!! Her grading scale is very fare and if you follow directions (which a lot of people don't) then you should make a B minimum. You don't have to present very well to make an A.She's awesome and I wish I could take her again! I gave you a chili pepper too Professor Peck just in case you read this lol!!
Ms. Mindy does not expect you to be perfect, but at least wants to see you put forth the effort. She is a good professor, willing to help in every aspect possible. So if you are willing to come to class, participate, try your best, you can receive an "A" like I did.
Do not take this teacher if you want to get a A. Bad teather don't take!!!!!
This is the worst professor that I have ever taken a class with. She is disrespectful, rude and a mad lady. If u think that u will take this class and get an A u are wrong u will be doing good if u even pass the class. her test are so hard the info that she teaches in class is not the info that is on the test. DO NOT TAKE HER U WILL BE SORRY!!!!
She is very funny. Not really hard. The speeches are fun since for the most part, you pick the topic. Although beware if you have her first thing in the morning because she is late 99% of the time.
The average score on the take-home midterm was a 68. Lectures are long, redundant, and lame. The only days she shows up on time are on speech days. I wouldn't recommend her to anyone who is desperate for an A.
She explains everything thoroughly and tells you exactly what she wants on speeches. Stay within the time limit on speeches and dress nicely (business casual) on speech days! The midterm and final exams were hard; you have to actually think, but they don't account for much of the grade. Put in the effort, don't be lazy, and you will do just fine.
Her rambling will give you a headache. All she does is talk and give constant criticism no matter how well you do. Exams ha! Good luck. They will be completely picked apart and no one gets an A on those. Not the worst teacher here but def not the best. Do not buy the book you will not use it.
So far Prof Peck has impressed me more than any teacher at FSCJ. She challenges you to be your best and raise the bar on what you can do!
Professor Peck is the best professor on Kent Campus and she is the best looking woman there hands down. I love her class very high energy and she is funny as hell. If I could I would take her for my whole time I was in college if I could. Want to have fun in class take her best ever.
Peck was not a very good teacher. People that like her only do because it's easy to pass her class or because they enjoy her crude sense of humor. I didn't enjoy her class because over 16 weeks she was never once on time for class. Not even on exam or speech days. I honestly didn't learn anything & I got a B in the class...
She's super funny. I'm taking her accelerated summer course and YES: it is rushed, but if you follow the syllabus RELIGIOUSLY you won't fall behind. She helps on speeches and only gave us 2 exams.
Mindy was a great teacher. She was very helpful and always kept you on your toes. She loves to laugh and make her students laugh so there is never a boring moment in her class. The work is like college work, but it is easy if you stick to the syllbus. Loved this class and want antoher one of hers!
Mindy is an awesome teacher. I was really nervous about taking a speech class but Mindy made it fun. You can't jut coast in this class. Work is required but with good time management it's an easy A.
Prof. Peck was very good. She enjoy what she teaches and goes over and beyond to make sure you get a good grade in her class. This prof. I would highly recomend.
VERY FUNNY, AND CLASS IS AMAZING! Mindy is the best! she understands a students point of view. Speeches are easy and she doesn't grade hard at all. I recommend!!
Mindy is a great speech professor! Very enthusiastic and funny; You'll definitely enjoy this class. However, she does ramble alot and her tests are pretty anal, but overall the class is fairly easy as long as you do the work. Oh, Don't buy the book. You will NOT use it. Like at all. Just buy the program; it comes with an ebook.
Mindy is an awesome professor. She explains everything to you in terms you will understand. Turn in your work on time, prepare for your speeches and study the study guides given and an A is no problem. She is very funny and enjoys her profession. Loved her!
She is awsome, this was a speech business class and I thought that I was going to hate it, but the way prof peck teaches makes it entertaining and fun. Loved her and would take her again
This is the one class that I looked forward to taking over all others, and I couldn't be more disappointed. If you just want to take this and get it over with than this probably your class, but if you're a communications major with future interest in public speaking than chose someone else!
Prof. Peck is not a hard teacher to get along with. She gives you a formula that she expects you to use for your speeches. Follow the formula and you get an A. Yes, it is a little stiff and awkward, but it is easy to do. She hands you the A, all you have to do is FOLLOW DIRECTIONS! The only complaint I have is that we did not use the book at all.
Despite the reviews I have taken her twice. I received a B both times due to attendance and homework but the class is good. She is very helpful and knows her stuff. The speeches are not hard as far as work is concerned because she gives you all you need plus feedback just more anxiety with students. Loved the class. Only 2 test including final.
Peck is the coolest professor I have had in my three semesters at FSCJ. She tells you exactly what she expects and will help you with anything along the way. She makes the class fun and is very personable with everyone.
She's a good teacher and she does know her stuff when it come to business comunication. I didn't like her process for the speech part. I don't like her way of grading the work the student do for the speech. I wouldn't take her again.
I was expecting to learn more from a business speech class. Test was a little difficult. The way she wants speeches done is ok, but for me she was a harsh grader. Its like we're suppose to be good by our second speech. wouldn't recomend her to anyone.
This class was very informative. I learned a lot about what goes into the art of public speaking. The biggest problems that I had with this class were the two tests. They are passable if you download the study guides from her website and answer the questions on the study guide instead of taking notes and study. 23 of the class failed 1st test.
In order to get an A in this class you will need to: 1. Download the study guides for the tests and answer the study guide questions instead of taking notes, saves you time, 2. Follow the directions on how to do the speech, 3. Study for the tests from the study guide. If you don't you will not get an A. 23 of the class failed the tests. Just Sayin
There are 4 speeches, 2 tests, and homework. She grades hard but if you follow HER guidelines in your presentation speeches you will be good there. You will need to print out the study guides and answer the questions while she is lecturing in order to get the answers she wants. If you don't have the answers she gives in class you will fail. Study!!
Take notes - good notes. And sometimes if things get tough, she gives you the notes. I did have to use the book to go back and find things but if I had only asked, she would have made it easier. She's funny and warm. NOT a typical professor. She's young and has tons of energy. If she tells you "this will be on the test", it will.
Take this professor if it is a last resort. She is a very tough grader. Some of my classmates and I agreed that she picks favorites, so laugh at her jokes because she thinks she is funny. Speeches are not bad as long as you follow her guidelines. Take notes and well good luck on the tests.
Prof. M is one of the funniest women I have ever met. She is a straight forward tell it like it is person. She has more facial expressions than I've ever seen. She is warm, kind and still expects her students to do their work. The classroom is safe and filled with other students that are caring and supportive. TAKE THIS CLASS! Prof. M Rocks!
An awesome professor. Loves what she does, is extremely knowledgeable, and very high energy. Tests were extremely difficult! Make sure to use the study guide and actually study. The speeches weren't too bad, as long as you follow the guidelines you'll pass them. Definitely makes you work for your grade but still a great class.
The first half of the semester was a breeze, we hardly did anything. Mid-semester everything speeds up and gets to be too much. Tests are really hard, she probably won't give you full credit. She is a funny teacher, but I wouldn't recommend taking her to anyone. There was only 3 speeches, but doesn't grade on nervousness, still a tough grader.
If you love sarcasm then this is your class. Mindy is really funny and a great professor. Her grading is kinda hard and even if you feel that you answered correctly, then think again. There were 3 speeches and she doesn't take off if you are nervous. FOLLOW HER OUTLINE AND ALL HER INSTRUCTIONS. Cool and fun class, but can be a little stressful.
solid prof. who will teach you alot about business communication. grades really tough on the speeches and presentations. be sure to follow the rubric and use all the resources she provides like the example papers, and example powerpoints and you will be ok. with a little more effort i could have got an A. dont take if you slack and expect easy A
She is amazing. There is never a dull moment in this class. Work is minimal, and you rarely turn it in. Tests are online and at home. She sometimes gets a little off topic, but is quick to get back on topic. She is an amazing lecturer and it is obvious that she loves what she does. I highly recommend.
I took her for my speech class and it was easy. Only four speeches throughout the whole semester and only two exams. If you have anxiety about public speaking, she is sympathetic. Very little homework, but heavy on the lectures. As long as you take good notes, you'll do well on the exams.
I loved mindy peck she was a great professor. She was strict with her grading but you knew exactly what she wanted and if you followed the outline perfectly then you got an A. She's really funny too. Tells stories from her personal life that tie into what we are talking about. We had a textbook but the more important thing was the access code.
Professor Mindy clearly cares about your success. She is funny, always fare and will expect you to do your work. Class is mostly lectures so take notes! You really don't need to buy the book you just need the code. You will have individual speeches and group speeches, tests on the modules and two overall tests. All work besides speeches are on BB.
Professor Mindy is an amazing teacher. She's funny, easygoing,and extremely energetic. She is one of those teachers who makes her lectures easy to understand. She has samples of each outline for each speech so all you have to do is follow directions and you will deliver great speeches and earn an A in the class. It is hard to fail her class.
Super funny and not strict at all!
She's very informative and thats what I liked most about her. The key to passing is simply by following her instructions. TAKE THE NOTES!!! It made test 2 a breeze. I wanted to say Easy A but she's a "tough grader". I'd love to take her again if it were a nonverbal course.
Professor Peck is awesome. She really focuses on making each student the best public speaker they can be. She makes her lectures interesting and she's very enthusiastic. If you follow her outlines and study your notes you will pass her class with an A. It's not a difficult course, but she's no push over either.
This professor states that if problems occur we can get through it. I calmly asked her about one problem and she replies in a very rude and unprofessional way. I refuse to take a speech/communication teacher who doesn't even know how to communicate in a professional manner. (I could go on a rant but I only have 38 characters left.) HORRIBLE!!
She's an ok prof. Nothing out of the ordinary had to take her speech class due to having to redo much of mu AS as it did not transfer down to Florida. As stated breeze through beginning of semester, how ever the work load could be much more pleasant, it's just too much work in too little time for someone with a full time job and full course load.
Professor Peck is just is simply the best professor that is there for her students. Super funny and nice.
This professor is very rude. How are you a speech and communications teacher and can barely utilize it? She seems to always have an attitude if someone asks a question or doesn't understand
I love professor Peck! She is amazing and funny. The class itself was easy but Peck grades tough follow her outlines and you will do fine. Participation matters because its worth your final grade. 3 Speeches (Intro, Informative, and Group) wasn't that bad. You gotta do the work to pass! I would recommend this class for others.
Professor Mindy was great at giving lectures and making jokes with her class. However, she usually waited to assign us work and then we wouldn't have a lot of time to do it. She is a very tough grader and if you do not follow her directions to a T she will take points off for anything she can. Wasn't really a fan of her style but she was okay.
Great professor. From the first day Professor Peck is funny and hilarious. Although the class was challenging at times the professor was always giving good feedback for improvement.
Great teacher in the speech and communication field. Gives detail instruction to pass her class. Hilarious during lectures. Easy A if you do the work. Extra credit opportunities always available. Professor Peck is the best !
She's very anal about her instructions and outlines. You MUST follow the directions if you want to do well. She pushes you because she cares. 7 week class consisted of 4 speeches, 2 tests, and connect modules. Extra credit was offered once. There was 1 group speech.
If you love to communicate and do unique things then professor peck is the one for you! She is amazing
Professor Mindy really does want to help and she cares about her students. She is a tough grader but it is because she wants you to do your best. She is a great communicator, responds quickly to emails, and is a genuinely nice and amazing person. Not an easy A, you have to put in the work. Highly recommended
Professor Peck gives great feedback when it comes to assignments, but I always felt like my work wasnt good enough and shes extremely strict when it comes to grading. When it comes to speeches, she critiques so much that honestly you feel like your best isnt good enough. If you need a speech credit, I would keep looking for another professor.
Incredibly tough grader. I have been an A+ student all through high school and for 3 semesters of college, and yet for the majority of the class I had a C and had to work my butt off to get a B. While she does give an enormous amount of feedback, I would not recommend taking this class ESPECIALLY if you are carrying a heavy class load.
I had the worst experience with this teacher. I took it online and there was so much work you would have thought you were in an advance class or working on your masters in literature or something. THIS IS AN INTRODUCTORY SPEECH CLASS! She needs to get off her high horse. Her communication was horrible! WORST TEACHER EVER!
DON'T TAKE THIS ONLINE! She waits to the last minute to post grades and feedback. You have to wait on her to move from one part of the assignments to another. Grades harsh. FOLLOW her rubrics to the detail, including FONT and LENGTH. DO NOT GO OVER! Gives extra credit which helps but it is tough to get an A.
Mrs. Mindy is by far one of favorite professors I have EVER had! She makes her lectures really fun so that you stay engaged the entire time she is speaking. She gives you enough time and guidelines in order for you to be successful on speech day! If you show up to class, follow the rubrics and PRACTICE your speech, you'll get an A!
She is the Hardest teachers I've ever taken. If you mess up on the smallest thing such as font size, your grade will be dropped. She will not let you go ahead in the classes(even though she clearly says you can within reason in syllabus) . Her email responses comes across rude and unprofessional. Do not recommend if you wanna pass the class.
Attendance is a major part of your grade! If you dont come you wont pass. If youre like 5 minutes late your grade drops. Online work is tedious. She talks all class its kinda boring. She takes it really serious.
This is my second time taking a class taught by Mrs. Mindy. She is an EXCELLENT prof and literally gives you enough feedback in order to earn an A in her class! She is a lecture style professor BUT she LOVES participation! If you want an A in her class, just participate in lecture, follow her directions EXACTLY and be on time & practice your speech
Mindy is a good professor, but if you are shy DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS. Gosh! I am shocked I passed her class with a C, but honestly she is a tough grader. I do not recommend anyone to take her for public speaking.
Professor Peck is kind but there are a few things that are annoying. For example, w. an assignment she sent me an example that I ended up using, she then told me it wasnt correct even though I used what she sent me. Her instructions are a little confusing but overall it is an easy class. Keep up with due dates & check the feedback she gives you.
Her communication skills are terrible. She tells us to do one thing & when we do it she says its wrong. Her email replies come off as rude & unprofessional. Her syllabus is the exact opposite of what she says for ex. she says we cant work ahead, in the syllabus it says we can just not too far yet all the assignments are locked & unlocked weekly.
I have taken four class online and by far this was the hardest class. She is tough grader, not a great communicator and does not always grade on time. She posts a lot of information at once with little or no direction. I would not take her as a teacher especially for public speaking.
I would have to say that when feedback is given it is usually good. You will pass if you read and follow Professor Pecks' feedback. The only issue is getting feedback on assignments fast enough so that you could use it to improve on the next speech.
We had to record speeches in front of own audience to submit them which I found easier than in class. Will work with you if you need it, she is very nice and grades her speeches fairly and will even provide examples for almost everything you do in the class. Works on honesty policy for online tests, didnt require textbook. Easy A if you try
Heed the warnings of the other reviews here! Don't take her class unless you're prepared to deal with a really tough grader. Detailed instructions followed but still finds ways to criticize work. Comes off very contradictory and harsh in her feedback. Does not grade timely when feedback is needed to prepare speeches. Expectations are way too high!
Professor Peck is very particular about what she expects on every assignment, down to exact templates for outlines. However, if you follow what she says, you will pass. She is a tough grader, but all of her feedback is perfectly valid. Public speaking can be difficult, but she is encouraging. I enjoyed the class more than I thought I would.
I have never disliked a professor so much in my life. I have always liked my professors because I trusted rate my professors but it failed me lol. Very tough grader. Her negatives are hypocrite, unfriendly, you follow her advice on your assignment you'll be graded worse. Not understanding of your situation. Her messages were demeaning. don't take.
I have never had a professor that has given me such a hard time until Professor Peck. I have always been an A-B honor roll student and right now I am left with a very low C & still waiting on grades that I am already expecting to be graded very harshly. Professor Peck, when grading can come off as very condescending & rude. Never expect an A.
Professor Peck was the worst teacher I have taken. She does not get you grades quick enough so you can improve on your next speech. She expects you to be a professional at giving speeches even though this is an intro speech class. She is very rude and condescending and honestly I learned nothing from her.
I have been an A student and because of her I now have a C. I can't stress how much I don't like this professor. She contradicts herself on grading. It's almost like she expects you to know everything to get that A. she's such a tough grader. I would NOT take her again.
She's a harsh grader and honestly insufferable. Someone with a communication background lacks self-awareness about how she comes across. Her lectures are one way, and she goes on and on and on. I dropped her class and didn't receive a refund and I am happy I did. Hopefully, all these bad reviews go to someone in charge of rehiring.
Her teaching style is comedy, which sort of works. But this class has too much pressure in person. Things need to be handled more delicately. Especially with a generation of introverts. Yes, we need it simple and easy. I had to drop it before the first speech. I thought I was going to be fine, but I felt like I was going to mentally evaporate.
If you're introverted or have a hard time with speeches don't take her. I made great strides in my public speaking, but she failed me anyway. She is very harsh, both in grading and in feedback. She wants you to follow her outlines WORD FOR WORD, or you lose points... After the first speech, she expects you to be perfect. Also, She rambles. A lot.
Great professor, would definitely take her again
Even though it is online you are expected to give a speech in front of 5 people and film it 3 or 4 times in the class. Prof Peck though is awesome. She gives opportunities for extra credit and she gives great feedback on how to improve. She is also understanding as long as you have a valid excuse. Not a fan of the class but I'm a fan of Prof Peck.
Oh I love Professor Peck so much! She's so sweet, funny and very understanding. We had two essays that were pretty simple. All tests and quizzes are online and the quizzes are open book. We had 3 speeches, 2 being group ones and her feedback was very helpful. Her class was chill and her attitude toward others is immaculate.
I see a lot of bad reviews about her and while I understand where they are coming from her class wasn't that bad. She was a harsh grader for speeches but if you did what she told you to you'll be fine. Pus the tests are super easy and she does have extra credit if you need it.
Absolutely worse professor i've had yet. She says we must have our speeches no more than the time she set, but she holds class 30 minutes past the ending time and makes all of the mandatory polls at the end of class. so if you have work, that must wait so she can continue to ramble.she didnt leave feedback on either of my speeches.the list goes on.
horrible teacher. she doesn't give feedback, she's always at least 30 minutes past the time class ends. then marks you for not participating when you have to leave at the time the class is suppose to end. everything that's mandatory participation is literally held at the end of class. i chose this class for this time, because i have work after.
Professor Peck has a tough grading style, but if you put in the work, using resources like Unstuck study for study prep, the class can be manageable. Feedback is hit-or-miss, but the course structure is straightforward. Overall, a challenging but rewarding experience.
Why negative ratings? She is awesome! Gave lots of feedback. Did they not read her feedback? I have anxiety and ADHD and she made me feel better by being open about her experiences. Does go over a little in the live online sometimes but does not penalize for leaving. Grades tough but everything is provided and helps in any way if you talk to her.
Best. Professor. Ever. Gives tons of feedback. Follow directions and you're good. Will sit with you to help understand. Supports if you have anxiety. I dropped her class before because of my anxiety. Glad I came back. Give lots of examples and templates and study guides to help. Not as hard as you think. Ended up being a fun class.
Warning: Professor Peck WILL hit you regardless of whether you have a disability or not. If you have ADHD you will still be marked off for talking too fast/fidgeting/shifting too much in place. Somehow this is not against the ADA. Avoid.
Overall a great professor, She grades lenient so as long as you put in some effort and do you speeches you will have no issues passing. would take again.
Was cool at first, talks alot but keeps you awoke with stories but she can yap away from topic. Class isn't too hard she just claims she isn't a tough grader but she'll nitpick the smallest things on speeches so just accept you'll get points off.. For the quizzes it's not hard just follow the lecture content and set up notes so you can pass.
I am a Early College Junior, this class was okay. I was pretty nervous coming in and doing the speeches, but she made sure everyone understood her grading and that it was okay to be nervous during the speeches. She's really funny and polite and doesn't grade as harshly as someone else might grade. She made sure everyone felt comfortable!
quizzes/exams were extremely easy, especially if you payed attention in class. almost consist of common sense questions. She does talk for a while sometimes but her stories are usually pretty interesting. The class overall was pretty easy, she gave feedback in detail but my only critique is that she can be passive aggressive sometimes.
With this specific teacher, don't think that it's going to be a breeze or something that won't require much time. She is a harsh grader, makes assignments long and drawn out, is unclear about her expectations and instructions for assignments. If you're taking difficult classes with this professor, its going to add more work load. #SAVEYOURGPA
