She's a kooky teacher, and frequently talks about whatever pops into her mind (and, chances are, it's not Economics - if you're in back and have any homework for another class, you can do that work during her rambles and not miss anything important). However, she explains the principles of Econ well, and she clearly states what's on the test.

She is an amazing professor. I took her for Econ 1 and 2 (both online) and they were the easiest classes that I actually learned a lot in. The assignments are very simple and she gives you multiple examples on how you do them. She has optional rants that she puts that are hilarious and inspirational to read. I recommend her 100%!!

Honestly, this professor makes you work for your grade! As long as you read her lecture and do all of the homework assignments, you'll be fine! She makes the class easy for you AS LONG as you do the work for the class! I enjoyed her class!

This was my first time taking an online class and it was amazing. In high school I never really understood graphs in econ, but this professor throughly explains them. This class is relatively easy as long as you put in the effort to complete the homework, actually read the lectures and take notes from them and study. She is a fantastic prof!

Horrible. I notice that my assignments were "loses point", so another classmate and I did a study group together. We did the same thing and when they were graded my classmate got a 15/15 and I got a 10/15. She said that my graphs were "label wrong" yet my classmate and I had the same thing. Not Fair. Very upsetting. Happened on every assignment.

I absolutely loved her class, Macro economics isn't easy but I got it. Yes you have to do the work but you won't mind. She gives great examples you can follow and practice exams. I know I will use whatever I learned in the class. I had read some comments before the semester started but I have to disagree she answers and is helpful Amazing prof

I have a lot of personal anger towards teachers who indoctrinate with their own opinion, criticize others for not seeing the same perspective as well as being extremely condescending to the students. I have never been spoken to so poorly by a professor. Sorry econ is NOT the only science that matters and we are allowed to our own opinion

I never really like Econ in high school but her lectures explains thing PERFECTLY. They are a little lengthy but well worth the read. The lectures have the EXACT assignment in them. If you take the time for classes you will do fine, if you do not want to do the work, this is not for you. Just do the work and you will get an A no problem.

This professor is great! I loved her lectures, they were very detailed and straightforward. The homework she gave was very easy to complete as she provided step by step examples. If you are looking for someone with good material, choose her. The only scary part was that she uses Proctorio, where you are on camera, for some quizzes and the final.

She gives one assignment per week sometimes two and allows late work sometimes. Her lesson notes are put into simple readings and she explains really good. There are multiple quizzes, some are open notes and some are camera and mic monitored. At the end of semester she allows extra credit assignments that will be added to the score of your final

Beware of professor brown if you at all have your own opinions. She is a capitalist and won't accept anything different. Class isn't too hard. She writes her own lessons so you don't buy any books. She's nicer than she sounds in her lessons.

Professor Brown makes it simple so it is nice if you are someone who struggles a bit. However her lessons include a lot of her personal opinions like pro-capitalism and how things like "socialism" is bad. She wouldn't give me a grade for an assignment where I said socialism is better unless I included evidence which was never in the original prompt

No textbook is required. Professor Brown does post very informative lessons with multiple examples that help with homework. The coursework is not heavy, so just be sure to complete your discussions, assignments, and quiz's. Extra credit is also offered and there's a practice final exam which helps. Great professor, awesome class!

Professor Brown's course is all reading and zero video lectures. Her wording in the lectures can sometimes be confusing but you can always message her and she will reply in a timely manner. You should pass this class. Only thing i didn't like was the HW points started increasing dramatically down the line which makes it crucial to get a good grade.

It was a fine class and some of the topics were presented in an interesting way. However, she tends to hold strong opinions on the topics she teaches and her lectures are just reading. If that interests you i suggest the course since taking a day and doing her weekly work is fine. But, if you have the time and passion take econ in person

Easy class all you need to do is take notes on the slides (which can be long) and finish the hw. Only had one quiz and one exam. The final was extremely easy. However the Yuja Proctor thing she uses is very annoying since I would always get technical issues with it somehow. But overall it was a easy class.
