BOORRRRRRRRRRRRINNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!! I HATED GOING TO CLASS!!!!! shes easy but boring! if you want to get an easy grade and be bored take her... BORING BORING BORING!!!!!!!
She's the best teacher I have ever had!! very down to earth, and an easy A!! The only class I look forward to coming to!! Great teacher!! I truly recommend her to anyone!
If you ever want to meet a teacher who teaches, she is the one. If you ever want to meet someone who cares about you outside of your family, she is the one. Excellent teacher and Very Kind and Respectful. Doesnt catergorize you as a student but as an adult.
Best professor in the world!!! She's very knowledgeable about what she teaches. She answers every question clearly. She's there as a professor who's not trying to fail you but as a professor that is trying to help you pass with an A. Take her! She's awesome!!!!!!
Easy class, just try to stay awake, or get a pepsi or something.
Monica was an amazing teacher to have for my first semester, she gives easy to understand step-by-step directions for every assignment and is always there if you have any questions. She is extremly fair and as long as you follow along in class and open the book every once in a while you'll get an A.
Great professor!!
Monica is one of the greatest teachers. If you are taking the Strat. for college success course pick her. You have to go to class... its manditory and a big part of your grade but she makes it fun. She randomly brings in snacks and has days where you get to play games. She is one of my fav teachers to date. Easy tests, final is directly from tests.
Boring, boring, boring! While Monica can be nice, she talks the entire class then gets angry if she catches you talking. This class is pretty much common sense so it is easy but it is excruciatingly boring. She is pretty strict about being late, and also about absences.
easy class. great teacher. just be sure that your on time and dont go over your absences & you'll get a good grade. good elective class
Great Class!! Take Her
She was a great teacher - always happy - the class may be boring, not her as a person - feel free to e-mail me with questions.
She is a wonderful teacher. Very helpful. If you dont understand the assignment she will tell you anything you dont understand. Take her!
very cool teacher just be careful on being late or absent, she tends to frown on that. other than that great class and i had lots of fun. highly recommended.
she is a great person which makes her a good teacher. pretty easy tests. alot of group work tho jus participate. DONT BE LATE OR ABSENT she is serious bout it. the work is mostly a class educating bout the college it self and how to handle futher classes in college
She is a very sweet lady! Great teacher and sense of humor. Always happy and always teaching helpful information. Tests are easy! Just come to class (on time!), take notes when asked, and pay attention. Easy A!
Great teacher I really learned a lot for this class and for other classes.
I loved her class. She is an amazing teacher. Everyone in her class got along really good. I wish there was a part II with the same class. We all had a blast in her class. imma miss it a lot(fall 2007). WE all learned a lot. The info was very useful. SHE GOTTA TAKE HER CLASS. YOU WILL LOVE IT.
She is a great teacher and has a sense of humor! LOL! Only thing I can say DO NOT MISS A DAY OF CLASS.
The best way to describe her is simply the BEST!
she is adorable i lover her class she made things easy for you and the class very interesting i recommended her she is awesome!!!
she is an awesome teacher i am really glad i took her class. you have to make sure you are always in class, there on time, and have your planner
Do your work,go to class and be on time and you will do well
SHE WAS ONE OF MY FIST INSTRUCTORS IN PBCC AND IS ONE OF THE SWEETEST PERSON I EVER KNOWN. SHE MAKES THAT CLASS INTERESTING AND DYNAMIC I REALLY HAD A GRAT TIME IN HER CLASS!!!
THE BEST!! TAKE HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Monica is the best professor I've had this semester. She is a very sweet person with a wild imagination witch is a good thing because she makes the class very entertaining and fun. Biggest pet peeve: "CELL PHONES" and she is extremely strict about planners... PICK HER you wont regret it I sure don't
She Is A great teacher. She is Very Funny. There Should Never Be A dull Moment In Class. She Has A Fun & Vibrate Way Of Teaching, that does not bore you. She Wonderful. I Passed her class with an ( A ).
Great teacher. She is funny, relaxed, and she cares. Tests are a little tricky, but if you do the homework you are guarenteed a good grade. If you miss a class, jus call or email her and she gets right back to you. Class is very informative. She makes sure you know whats going on when it comes to your education and the college.Definitely reccomend
Great Teacher. I like her class.
She was the best teacher I've ever come across!! She's a sweetheart and she's very helpful!! I would definitely recommnd her!!
It's true that this class is similar to an 8th grader's crash course before graduating, but Hamlin does a really great job of making effective use of everyone's time. Her discussions are very clear and her tests simple as can be. She's no-nonsense, but very sweet as long as you give respect. By the end you'll be sad to say good bye.
Monica is a very sweet teacher, but she is also very serious. Not an "Easy A". Great effort is necessary. I really had to try for an 'A'. READ ALL DIRECTIONS AND LEAVE NOTHING BLANK! If a question tells you to list things you didn't understand, but you understood everything, write "N/A." Leaving it blank will cost you points for some reason.
I FEEL LUCKY TO HAVE HER AS MY PROFESSOR FOR MY FIRST YEAR EXPERIENCE.SHE MAKE YOU WORK HARD,BUT YOU CAN LEARN A LOT.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TEACHER.
Very AMAZING! You do alot of busy work, you need the book for sure, alot of reading. The tests are from the chapters in the book and her lectures and handouts. She is crystal clear on what she wants and expects. She wants you to succeed!!! BEST PROFESSOR.
Do ALL your homework. You do need the book for this class, the tests come from reading the textbook, as well as the teacher's lectures and homework assignments. Monica is a great teacher and an AWESOME person. Take her class, you will not regret it!!
Very nice person and teacher, I have no complaint about the professor, just the subject matter, it was sooo annoying to have to sit through this class, mostly common sense, things you should already know, I like more challenging classes, I did not make any effort for this class almost quit out of sheer frustration, and got a B so its defo an easyA
The best class i've had in college, and 1 of the nicest professors EVER!! Just do the work and use your planner.. and don't forget to write N/A on your test analysis!!
Monica was awesome. She was very nice and straight forward. I wish there were more professors like her. Honestly if you pay attention and do the work you'll be fine. If you need help, just email her and she'll help you out!
Great Teacher Overall
Monica was an outstanding professor, just do your homework (most of that its so easy) b always in time, she is very funny nd she just makes u happy every time your in her class. She's amazing.. I had a great experience with her, she was the best teacher I could ever ask for my first semester in college.. I wish there would be more teachers like her
Monica is very motherly and pleasant. I would HIGHLY recommend her. The class atmosphere is very open and safe. Yes, it's easy and pointless, but this course is required for most taking it. Complaining is futile. Please don't be the "God, this sucks! I'm too good for this!" guy, you're bringing everyone down. Just try to have fun.
Monica is awesome. She cares about every single one of her students, and advises multiple ways to help them succeed with their WHOLE college career, not just her class. She teaches from the heart, and is very motivated from her work. If you put the work in, you will pass no problem. She also does not condone cussing, so care of your vocabulary.
Professor Hamlin is very thorough and clear about everything. I was extremely annoyed about having to take this class, but in the end, I enjoyed it because of her approach, and so did the other students. She makes it so that you have no choice but to participate, and the entire class left friends! Grateful that I had her in my first semester.
I had Monica for my first semester and she was GREAT (isn't this great!). People say easy A? It's only a easy A if you attend class and hand in your assignments ON TIME every time. She awesome! Wish she would go back to English so I could have her again :)
She is the best professor that I've taken at palm beach state wish other professor's help us like how she does ....If your smart you take her class she the best teacher on the campus you won't regret anything....
Monica is the best. She really opens you to new ideas and strategies. It's a life changing course, I loved it. I recommend reading the text book chapters before tests and taking notes on them. other than that this class is a breeze. Don't fall behind. You can always learn something new, I sure did.
I have two more weeks left in her class I could not wait to post my comments on Monica she is awesome her class is so fun and informative that I look forward coming to class every week I highly recommend her all her test are super easy go to class don't be late don't miss assignments and follow instructions you will no doubt get an A!
Monica is an awesome professor! She is the best "first" professor a student could have...absolutely love her.... take notes, read and study the chapters assigned and do your homework (which is easy,) and you will pass with flying colors!
Monica is an awesome professor. You will not find a sweeter, nicer person. Having here as my first professor in the college world has been so nice...she has helped break the ice into the unknown....She is a super helpful professor....study the chapters assigned and do your homework and you will have no problems with this class!!!
Awesome teacher if you are clueless about life, and have no idea what to study or major in. Easy A all you got to do is show up and do the easy work.
I love this class is easy, do your homework, pay attention, you will have an A. Professor Hamlin is very understanding if you ever ever have any problems explain them to her in professional manner and she will help you in any way she can. Best professor take her you won't regret it.
I totally would recommend taking Monica for SLS1501! On the first day, you are given your syllabus with all of your assignments and tests including the number of points. Do your work, show up to class and everything will be easy! Monica is the sweetest and cares about her students. If you are taking sls1501, take her!!!!
I will never regret taking Monica for SLS, her curriculum is very clear and easy, and her class really does help you get through your first semester of college at Pbsc. She's great, really.
Easy Easy A. Monica is so sweet and gives really inspirational lectures. Picked up some things from this class that will come in handy for future classes. I know this class is mandatory to graduate, so if you are looking for something with minimal stress, Monica's class is a great choice.
Monica is the best professor for SLS1501! Entire class schedule on the syllabus. Assignments & grading are straightforward. Homework is frequent but easy. Four tests of 25 multiple choice questions based on the textbook, homework & class discussions. One big project at the end of the semester. Final is all questions from previous tests.
This class went well she teaches great!
Boring. But overall easy A and a great motivator.
Professor Hamlin is so nice & helpful. The usual class consist of powerpoints and taking notes. There's one big project at the end of the semester. The class does require a decent amount of reading; the material may be common sense but it's better to read just in case because the test is based of the book, PowerPoint, and handouts.
She literally talks the whole entire time , I don't think she ever takes a breath . I zone out in her class everyday she treats us like we are 2 years old , we took an hour & 15 mins to just explain a planner. If you are ready for your ears to fall off because she talks so much and so fast take her class (:
she will talk your ear off, she is really boring. she's like, watching paint dry boring but she is a pleasant person she doesn't know how to shut up. everything is on the syllabus and you NEED your planner in her class. don't take her at night, cause like I said she's boring
Listen do yourself a favor DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. You are late just one minute there goes 1/3 an absent and a 0 on an assignment due that day! she treats you like a kid literally. SUPER BORING. She talks forever you feel like the class is for hours when it is only an hour and 15 minutes. Worst decision to pick her as a teacher
Best professor for sls. super easy even if she treats you like you are 5. the test are common sense. it is very hard to fail this class. Attendance is absolutely mandatory and she is not lenient about it at all.
She definitely has muuuch more patience than I do, it's amazing. She's also extremely clear, I assure you you'll know exactly what is expected of you at all times. She has an endless amount of information to share with you and it's stuff you'll ACTUALLY use in school and life.
This class is easy. Just come to class and turn in your assignments and you will get an A.
Really caring teacher, not a hard class
I can truly say she was one of the best teachers I ever had. Her class is not hard at all just show up , do the assignments then you should pass her class with an easy A.
Honestly, She's amazing. She actually cares about her students and doesn't let you failed if your trying. The class is easy all you have to do is show up, do your assignments and you'll receive an A. Best SLS teacher!!
Monica is such a wonderful person and a great professor! She provides so many opportunities to succeed in not only this course, but in your entire college experience. I simply loved her and she is hands down the sweetest professor a student can have. Take her class! Super helpful and easy!
all the quiz is whats on the final exam
I took this class in my first semester and at the begin I though it was very difficult class because she gave to us a lot of papers to do as a homework, but then I understand the purpose of that papers. This class can help with your organization and time management. If you do all the homework you will have an A! SHE IS SO SWEET!!!!!!!
Professor Hamlin is by far one of the sweetest and most caring professors I have had at pbsc! She is super helpful in everything college related. Easily passed her class with an A!
Amazing teacher. she is caring respectful and responsible. regarding to the SLS 1501 the class is easy, but people do fail it so don't oversee your assignments. I would definitely recommend her to future students.
Monica is just plain awesome! Do all the assignments and go over the chapters she assigns for the tests and you will pass without a doubt! Make sure you attend all of her classes because she takes points off for tardiness and absence. Late assignments can be turned in before the "late work deadline". Take her for SLS1501.
full of energy! loving and definitely will help you if need help! test are easy, gives hw almost everyday but super easy!! I would most def retake her class!!!!:) easy A but you have to do all the assignments..
Monica is so nice. Always tells you what is expected and what you need to do. But the class is very and you get a lot of papers. If you dont show up you definitely will not pass the class. If you have to take SLS 1501 I do recommend Monica
She is great, respectful and does her best to make the students enjoy, have fun, and interact with each other.
Best Teacher ever wish I could have her again. She is very clear about what is done in and out her class. She's Easygoing, funny and laidback! i definitely recommend her! My favorite teacher
Best professor I've had yet, super fun and energetic. Her lectures don't even feel like lectures. She doesn't use PBSC Blackboard and makes you keep track of how many points you receive so the grading can be frustrating. Lots of assignments but doesn't take much effort to do them. Show up and do every assignment and its an easy A.
Very easy class! All her work is extremely easy, just have to do it to get good grades. All 4 test she gives are super easy, dont even need to study (her final exam is 50 questions all taken from the 4 test she gave throughout). Super nice professor, just don't have your phone out. The only bad thing was that it was boring at times. EASY A!!
AMAZING PROFESSOR!! Very funny and takes the time to make sure you understsnd the material. Very easy class and very relaxed. Test me and final are super easy if you pay attention
Monica was an amazing professor. Her class is very easy, just do the homework and you will pass she even gives you al ate homework pass. If you are a new student starting college take care, it will help you and her final its the easiest ever.
Mrs. Hamlin is very lazy, she won't post your grades on the black broad and expect you to follow through with your own grades, she have peer grading in her class which impact students in a negative way .once you get to know your classmates number that is assigned by Monica. you actual develop hate towards that classmate who gives you a bad grade.
One of my favorite professors. She has everything organized in the syllabus, so youll always know whats going on. Do the homework & youll pass easily. Dont forget the online homework too
Monica was a true gem. She gave easy work and had a clear grading system. Some assignments will be due online. If you miss class you can make it up during another. If you dont show up to 4 classes you will get dropped from the class. Show up and receive extra credit. Lowest test grade will be dropped at end of the semester.
Absolutely one of the best professors I ever had. She truly makes the lectures engaging and interesting and always makes jokes so we listen more and not boring and we doze off. She always gives advice on how to make out lives and college career better. She goes above and beyond with her class. Perfect example of what a professor is supposed to be.
Easiest SLS course you'll take is with Professor Hamlin. She makes class very interesting with her personal anecdotes. She gives homework assignments every week, and her test are just like the study guide that you create yourself.
PROFESSOR HAMLIN IS VERY ORGANIZED AND EVERYTHING IS DETAILED IN THE SYLLABUS, 5 TEST IN TOTAL HOMEWORK EVERYWEEK AND MINDTAPS ONLINE SHE GIVES PLENTY OF TIME AND ITS A REAL EASY A. YOU JUST HAVE TO SHOW UP AND TO YOUR WORK.
Monica Is great i you have to do a lot of MindTap's but she really prepares you for what to expected in college life! would defenetly take her again. Due dates matters just show up do your work and it will be a easy A.
Many people think this class is a waste of time but it's really not. While taking this class I learned a lot about time management, money, and college resources which is very important.
She's awesome! Everything is organized; she gives a clear syllabus at the beginning, so you know what to expect! You have to read the assignments very carefully and make sure to complete all. Even if it's past the due date, she will take the assignment and give you some points! The lectures are entertaining and dynamic.
Very easy to work with! I really have grown found of Mrs Hamlin and I would definitely take her again
The professor is awesome. Trust me, this is the easiest class I've been taking of my entire life. The are a lot homeworks, they are easy and whenever you need help, you can reach out to her. She is always ready to help her students out.
