I was surprised with the grade I did receive, she doesn't go into much explanation. She writes it on the board and if you can't visually learn by examples, this is not the class for you. I would hardly ever ask questions, because she acts like its such a bother to her. The only thing I did like about her was in class days to study and extra credit.
