What Students Say

She is a very tough grader

CUL502 - 1.0 rating

I believe she is the worst teacher I had after the teacher I had in university I will not forget her plus that teacher she knew I had tough things and she failed me so I am disappointed why she always said me I do not care I did my assignments even though they had problems but always just zero zero zero to me I do not recommend her at all

No helpful feedback, and no encouragement, I don't consider her a good professor for a Gen-Ed course. Unlucky for those who take her course. No hatred, but she is a hard grader. Essays weekly (portfolio). Never feel excited in this course tbh

The professor is engaging and makes the material interesting. Doing the readings and assignments is crucial, but unstuck study can help streamline the study process. Overall, a worthwhile elective if you're willing to put in the work.

Staying away from this professor, she shouldn't be teaching online classes, what a joke. She isn't considerate, and doesn't explain assignments properly.

Professor Penny is one of the kindest and caring Profs at Seneca. She always relates material to current issues. I liked her a lot. Thank you Penny

Penny is my all-time favorite professor. Her lectures were the best and she gave great feedback. I really enjoyed her assignments! I'd love to take another of her courses as she was a very fair and caring professor. I highly recommend her!

The course had very limited class sessions and was mostly online. It was difficult to receive timely feedback during the term, and assignment expectations were not always clear.

Penny is a very good but harsh professor. She expects students to be on time and will call students even if they are late. She also holds an expectation for readings to be done before class and for assignments to be done on time with no exceptions! I found her teaching style to be all over the place and often times I was confused on what to do.
