Don't ask this teacher for help unless you don't mind being yelled at and made a fool of in front of class. She likes to make you feel dumb!

No nonsense teacher
i got an A, i thought her class was pretty easy. She tells you what she wants and if you do it, there are no problems.
I had to drop this class after the lady continued to insult people who asked questions. At first she is friendly but she becomes unaproachable after a few weeks.
Helpful and friendly. Very knowledgable. I learned a lot. Great teacher.
bad attitude. Makes people feel stupid DONT TAKE HER!
More of a class on taking speed notes. If you can take notes at hyper-speed while looking at a monitor, and not at what you are writing, then this class is for you.
Her grading system is a bit ridiculous, I still managed to get an A. When she grades programs, even though they are fully commented and run 100% perfect she still deducts points for whatever reason. I guess she doesnt want to be known as an easy teacher.
She's very helpful, clear and direct. Her tests are very fair most are takehome, can't beat that. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
worst ever....such a hard time, didnt wanna help...save yourself!
worst teacher ever, she makes u feel stupid when u dont know the information, isnt helpful, gives an attitude, and her grading is rediculous, the notes she gives are orally given and u never get them all because she goes so fast, shes a ****hhhhhhhhhhhhh
Seems hard at first. If you ask for help you will get it. You must do all the work. She forces you to learn, that is a good prof.
She is hard, but fair.You MUST be able to take notes quickly while looking at the monitor and must do things the way she tells you. In the end, you'll be okay.

FAIR TEACHER. Very nice. Always willing to help THROUGH OUT the course. I'd definately take her again.
this professor was the coolest, down to earth, student oriented professor. If you show up to class, do the homework, ask questions when you have them, and can use a calculator (duh), you will get an A!!!
you see this name try to get another one
Definitely the worst computer teacher. Rushes to reach her deadlines. Doesn't stay to help beyond 10-15 minutes after class. So it's sink or swim for anyone who doesn't get it the first time. I wound up helping about 5 people every day to catch up. AVOID!
She is a nice woman as long as you do as she asks and on time. Her grading system is very tough and deducts points for minor mistakes so you must be precise with your work. If you develop a friendship with her in class she is actually a cool lady.
Intro to Probability -- Very hip, nice lady. Fair teacher, you get the grade you deserve. If you're a slacker, she definitely won't cut you any slack, but as long as you show up on time and do the work, she's easy to get along with.
probably the best teacher i have ever had! very clear instructions, shows you what to do, tells you to take notes.. only a fool couldn't pass this class... i plan on taking her again..
nice lady easy class I dont understand why people don't like her.
very good teacher for statistics, explained everything very well.
Fair.
Weitz is OK...just pretend like she's always right and you'll be fine. Test are OK...you can use your book for ONLINE class -- she gives you 3 hours...I used my book and answered every question within 1-2 hours...not bad...easy A
Worst teacher I ever had. Never was there to help you with the projects and never had time to work on them in class. She expected you to be an expert in the programs, considering the fact I never used the programs before. Very hard grader, and was rude most of the time you asked her for help.
I got an A, but she went WAY too fast through the tutorials, expects you to be an expert, has the most annoying laugh, etc. You will learn alot, but she is WAY too technical. You have to take all the notes yourself as she demonstrates on the main computer.. if you miss a step, you're pretty much screwed. There are better.

I like her... she brings personality to the class... keeps my attention for a lil while which is alot more than ne other teacher could do... i love the class alot and i think she teaches it very well but i also like that stuff alot... i reccomend her...
No Comments
She's very clear about what she expects from her class. She will take the time to explain something if you do not understand it (or have missed the class when it was explained). She seems to take a joy in having things done right. Some people consider that hard, but as long as you listen to what she wants, you shouldn't have a problem... Got it?
No Comments
Very tough grader, will take off lots of points for the slightest error. Sometimes not clear on the requirements of the assignment. Assignments require a LOT of time to be put into them. I've seen her get snippy when students ask too many questions. Has an annoying habit of saying GOT IT? all the time. You will learn a lot of useful stuff though.
it's a good class but she brakes the class. i find her to be very unhelpful. she does not like to help me after the lesson. she says for me to get help from other students. she thinks she is funney. but she isn't. i would rate her as a teacher from 1 10 a 2.
Very good teacher. Takes the time to help students when they need it. She gives a good amount of assignments, unlike some teachers, so it's not incredibly hard to get a good grade. Definitely 100,000,000,000,000 times better than Burke.
TERRIBLE TEACHER! Dont ask too many questions or she flips out. Also, she says Got it a lot and its annoying. Takes points off for any mistakes. Talks to students as if they had a brain malfunction. Try not to take her because she has wild mood swings all the time. She often embarasses students by talking down to them. AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!
excellent teacher. you HAVE to be there for every class to clearly understand the assignments. shes very picky about what she wants and will take points off, but if you dont understand that after the first few weeks, then you should drop the class. shes great and im takin her for multimedia!
Robin Weitz is an intelligent woman however she always needs to be right. Her way cannot be debated, she has a bad habit of trying to make you look like a fool. She also has a poor habit of getting snippy with students. A professor's responsibility is to help students, not argue or be defensive with them. On a positive note: She is a tough grader.
This teacher was the worst teacher i have ever had. She is so rude! She never helps, makes you feel like a complete idiot if you ask any ?'s. She is so unfair. She does not care about helping or seeing her students suceed. She thinks she is so smart. I think she is Bi-Polar. Serious Mood Swings. No sympathy. Never take her shes the worst.
Lousy teacher, not very helpful, basically self taught myself from the book
She seemed like she didnt really care
Sneaky
took her for photoshop class a while ago, terrible teacher. dont have 1 good thing to say about her. shes mean, not very clear, and annoying. a part of her class u have to download a 30 day free trial, but the trial ends before the class does, so if u dont finish everything, your pretty much screwed.
HORRIBLE!! I suggest that if you aren't very good in algebra to not take this teacher. She explains the problems way too fast and it seems like she expects us to get it right away. Like the other person said before, it really did seem like she didn't care that the whole class was struggling. I dropped right away and later on found out that majo
What a disgustingly terrible experience. She had to be apart of some kind of evil organization. Her problems: a) She assigned work, didn't explain it, but lectured on something else b) she gave a scowl if you asked questions in class c) she was a disgusting person inside. She shouldn't teach at OCC, or teach anyone ever again. Fire her.
She was very helpful always answered any questions. Gave us the choice of having a final. Only problem I had was showing all my work on the tests she will take off a lot of points for that. I am not a big fan of math I am also not very good at it but I did well in her class.
too bad!!! don't take her class! It's the worst course I've ever taken! she doesn't care her students at all.
I had her for Discrete Math. Incredibly condescending, teaches slow, annoying voice, makes you feel stupid for asking any ?'s, and on top of all that, she wasn't even proficient in the material. When I tried to correct her after she made mistake on the board, she said I "just didn't get it" and suggested I get tutoring. Avoid at all costs!
Did not know, much less cover, the subject material. Took off 10 points or more on tests for "not showing all your work." Extremely condescending, but clueless mathematically. I went to the Dean of Mathematics to have my test grades adjusted.
This is the worst teacher I have ever had. I was looking forward to this video game class so much. It should be somewhat fun right? NO WAY! She is a NUTTY ****! Tests are long, hard, and you are expected to answer fully. Even if you are right and it isn't 100% to her liking, it's WRONG! DO NOT TAKE! 3/4 of class will drop anyway.
She is terrible!! Majority of the people dropped, including myself! I heard she only had 4 students left by the end of the semester. I took Algebra 1 with another teacher and did fantastic! She is not caring at all and degrades her students! I would not recommend her if you aren't that good in math.
great class. explains things well.
Talks down to you constantly and always very agitated.
definitely not as bad as everyone makes her seem. as long as you pay attention and show up on time she's very nice. always extremely helpful when asked questions.

Sometimes harsh, but good preparation for the business world. Expects same as an employer: be on time and complete assignments by due date. Drops lowest grade and offers extra credit so even if you fail a major test you can still get an A. Do assignments right after class then you can get help during her posted office hours.
Statistics sucks soo much... but Prof. Weitz is a great teacher. If you show up on time and show that you work hard she'll help you out. She lets you write a paper to replace a crappy test grade. If you can't get your three credits out of this class, then you don't deserve them.
I have been lucky with teachers and can't say I have ever had a bad teacher before, this is the first bad teacher to date. She insults her students and grades badly, I barely passed with 100% attendance and high test grades because she grades finals extremely low. She even said like 50%+ of her class fail every year, not something to be proud of.
Prof. Weitz is very good! She is helpful and covers a lot of material. Sometimes moves a bit too fast, though. Grading can be a bit tough, too.
I heard only bad things about this teacher, but she was nice as hell, gave you the grade you deserved, offers extra credit etc etc i dont see what the other people see i guess
Comes across very mean but is a very good teacher, very clear and is ALWAYS available for help. Calculus is hard, and this was a 5 week summer course. She worked with me until I got things, and will for you too. Show her you care and she will too. Show up to class, attendance is big. If you don't do the hw, you won't get the material, bottom line.
Very good teacher. I just finished taking her class over the 5-week summer session, and she was wonderful! I have no idea what the others are talking about, she was never mean or condescending. Just make sure you attend the class and get there on time, and you won't have any problems doing well - I got a A.

I agree with most of the other comments.She's terrible!She commented in the beginning of class that she's been called every name in the book and even had books thrown at her head.At the time I was shocked! Now I see why. She's easily agitated, very sarcastic, and impatient.She's willing to help after she's already insulted you.And be on time!
WHAT EVER YOU DO DO NOT TAKE HER. SHES THE WORST TEACHER I EVER HAD SHES RUDE AND NOT HELPFUL BY ANY MEANS. IF YOUR THAT STUDENT THAT ISENT THE GREATEST AT MATH THEN DONT TAKE HER BECAUSE SHE WONT EVEN WASTE HER TIME TRYING TO HELP YOU
She is a easy teacher but you got to be to every class and be ON TIME! other than that pay attention and you will do fine. She does move fast through material.
Be on time. Pay attention and take notes or you won't understand the material. She is willing to help you, but her office hours are at 7am. Don't be late for your last assignment she will lock you out.
SHE GIVES 500 assigments. and is not very nice.
Attendance is a must! Be on time. And if you miss class your skrewed for notes that you have to take in class to do the assignments. Write down every word she says or problems.Office hours suck. She is impatient and talks down to people. Does this whole nodding of her head while she asks the class 100 times if you understand the consequences.
She should stick with computer class. Horrible math teacher, really condescending and asks the class if they "Got it" a million times, and doesn't care if we don't. I went to the tutor with an old test and the tutor even said her tests were 'sneaky'. You're only graded on tests and our whole class has failed every test. Seriously don't take her
I wouldnt even consider this lady a teacher considering she does not teach. She goes to class simply telling you how to do a math problem asking over and over and OVER again IF "you got it" and guess what no one ever does! She swears the test are easy, but once again shes a little trickster throwing in things weve never done! DONT TAKE THIS CLASS
You must be on time. U must write down every sigle word she says in order to do the assignments. She is not a very nice teacher, she does not except any excuses and will tell you thaat! The book is used. I WOULD NOT TAKE HER!
By far the WORST teacher I have ever had! A class of about twenty something students at the beginning, only four remained at the end I was told. I dropped and took the class with a more understanding and wonderful professor. This person should not be a teacher and I will ALWAYS remember her as the world's most sucky teacher to have ever teached!
TERRIBLE. Without a doubt the worst teacher ever! STAY AWAY!!
Listen carefully: DO NOT TAKE HER!! You will regret it. This is a class that I love the material in; it's the field I'm going into but unfortunately she presents it in a such an UNORGANIZED, messy manner that I have resorted to self study at home. She is a SCAM, she doesn't know the material and that's that. Not to mention she's CONDESCENDING!
Disgusting person is all I have to say.
The worst god damn teacher, test are only two problems at the end and if you mess up early the whole entire problem will be marked wrong.
horribleeeeeeeeeee bad not good... she should picc a new career nd be firedd.
She was the absolute worst professor I have ever had. She is rude, condascending, and unhelpful. Her assignments consist of strictly following specific instructions word for word for about 10 pages of notes, and try to duplicate it for homework after she speeds through it. She is completely unreasonable.
i'd advise anyone not to take her class. i may have gotten a B, but in reality i should have received an A. She is nit-picky when it comes to grading and acts as though her students are beneath her as humans.
very hard, very fast, she likes chocolate milk
Great professor. Always willing to explain everything. She is very nice and willing to work with you. This is college level so excuses are not tolerated. I recommend her. Just do all of the work that she wants.
This teacher is awful. She is rude, condescending, and a horrible teacher. Don't waste your money.
I would never in a million years recommend this Professor.The learning enviornment is stressful and harsh."Got It" her favorite line. She talks to her students as if they were idiots. There is no flexability in the class, none.Take someone else.
TERRIBLE TEACHER...
She is an awful professor. She treats you like an idiot if you ask her anything. She is no help and all she says is "Got it?" and moves on. She is terrible.
Prof. Weitz comes off as if she's nice and want you to learn but she is all but that. Her favorite line is "Don't Piss Me Off". Her grading system is complicated and for some reason I always wind up with an F. I may have pissed her off because I confronted her. May God change her attitude and bless you to never have her.
Horrible. Won't accept anything late (understandable), not even five minutes late (ridiculous). Makesyou feel stupid, not helpful at all, completely boring, unnecessary attitude, way too proud, not funny, tries way too much to be a "hard" professor. do not take this professor. ever.
I am a hard working student, 3.9 GPA. Professor Weitz is a horrible professor, it actually seems like she wants students to fail. She is extremely rude, disrespectful, and arrogant. If you ask a question she makes you feel like your an idiot for asking. When she gives assignments she tells you "this is what you need to do to get a D"
Worst techer I have had in my life.
Horrible. She makes you feel like you are in pre-school. If you ask for help, more times then not she won't help you. I'm so happy that I will NEVER have to take this class or her EVER again!!!!
She is the rudest person I have met in my life. She doesn't help you at. She makes you feel stupid when u ask her questions. She was the must disrespectful teacher I have ever met. She absoultly wants her students to fail. She grades very hard. I hated this teacher more than anything in the world. She should be fired. NEVER EVER TAKE HER!!!!
DO NOT TAKE HER!!! SHE IS RUDE TO EVERY STUDENT TALKS DOWN TO ALOT OF PEOPLE! SHE GRADES VERY HARD AND DOES NOT EXCEPT LATE ASSIGNMENTS NOT EVEN 2 MIN LATE! SHE TELLS U A DUE DATE AND THEN CHANGES IT! SHE JUST WANTS EVERYONE TO FAIL! I AM GOOD WITH ALL THE COMPUTER STUFF BUT SHE JUST MARKED U WRONG FOR THE STUPID LITTLE THINGS!!
Professor Weitz does not actually teach, she dictates. If you are not a speed writer forget it, you will not pass this class. If you dare to ask her a question about what she just dictated to you, she will say it again only once and then ask you if you "got it". She would never last in the corporate world.
in the beginning she seems very nice and it seems like she is very helpful..however as you get more into the semester you start to realize that she is a witch and not helpful at all. If you do the work you should get a good grade, if you cant do the work and you ask her for help shell tell you to figure it out and/or go to the library...
Worst professor I have ever had. I hope she gets fired.
You are the best
Good professor. Just do your work, show up to class, and you're set for an A.
Very rude teacher. Tells you to come for extra help during office hours but is never there or tells you she is busy and to go to the tutor.;;; When you ask her for help she says you did it wrong but doesnt help you solve it.!
Absolutely terrible. We had first test on final drop date, thought I did decent, but she marked things wrong for spelling, and stuff that shouldn't matter. EX. MY answer "hyperspace" HER answer "hyperspace button". Can't wait to take her again for OpenGL!
I've never used this site before, but I wanted to come here to warn everybody to AVOID this professor like the plague -- I've always gotten A's and B's in my classes at OCC, and I've always been a good student, but this woman is absolutely insane. I got an F on an essay in a VIDEO GAME CLASS that I would have gotten an A on in an ENGLISH CLASS.
Keeping it short. Horrible teacher. Grades tests on things that ARE NOT on her lecture notes website which she states has all of the answers. The 'correct' answers are enormously specific and DO NOT fit within the lines provided on the test sheet. Unnecessarily difficult, very strict on attendance and lateness. Group projects graded tough as well.
the worst professor i've ever had. beyond difficult to impress, she is the hardest grader ever i've come across. she moves too fast and doesn't care about the students. what's the sense in trying if she's looking for ways to fail you? it's worth waiting another semester than to have to be forced to take her class. i'd rather do ANYTHING else.
terrible.. simply terrible.. she does not help, she does not go over anything.. she does not like boys, and she does not like emails. i emailed numerous times and she told me "make an appointment" **** **** you i have a life. DO NOT take her.
worst professor ive ever had. i emailed her for help and she said come in. i go there and she says im busy... very hard grader. nothing can be correct in her mind. she doesnt give any help and is just simply terrible. she goes way to fast on her lectures. DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR
dont know if she teaches math anymore, but she was horrible...there was literally a line of people at her door with withdrawl slips including me...only class ive ever had to drop in college, goodluck
Worst teacher at OCC. She is the worst grader. If you do the work and get 7 of 10 correct you get a 50 or worse. What she says is right no matter what. DO NOT TAKE YOU ARE BEING WARNED STEER CLEAR
She does not help you she doesn't give good reviews for tests if one at all she makes you think your doing good then all at once your failing and have no idea why i hope i make it through i should have taken someone else
Who does she know to be so lousy yet keep her job? Does tenure apply to college professors too? She is totally useless and is schitzo.
Worst teacher ive ever had.. horrible.. i took her twice and i failed twice. nothing but nasty to everyone. all these good comments about her have to be written by her. do not take her unless you want to waste money. i dont know why occ even empolys such a horrile teacher.
Hardly explains what she writes on the board. Moves way to fast doesn't really give you anything to study for test. Don't take her if you have problems with math. You'll fail.
the worst teacher by far . never answers e-mails, always changes the directions in projects and nit picks everything. DONT TAKE HER!!!
Leaving her class was a breath of fresh air. I am free from the concentration camp she calls class. She is a witch, I hope Karma catches up with her.DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS UNLESS YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE WITCHES WHO BECOME HER FAVORITE. In other words a mini me. She has her own agenda that doesn't have to do with teaching at all. She needs to be fired!
The Jersey Devil does exist... and the legends made it look so much better.
Does not follow OCC rules. Absent rate has to exceed 10% before grading can be a penalty. But she thinks she can withrdaw you for 3 absents out of 30 classes, not counting the 2 days off for holidays. She lates within 3 minutes as lates even though she gives 3 minutes leeaway. The Dean doesn't care about any of this either. Take at your own risk.
She acts like she is above the students, the school rules, and even her own rules. I pity the fool who willingly takes her class.
If you take this class be prepared to either fail or get a C after doing tons of work. She is a horrible teacher. 10 page paper on stupid topics, 2 extremely tedious projects that won't even get graded fairly. Tests are incredibly badly graded and long. This class sucks. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
She is extremely passive aggressive & does not care if you are learning or not, i received a B in the class and I'm here to say do not take her. I am currently going to the head of the technical building (her boss) to deal with some grading matters, she took points off simple because she dose not like me, 18hrs on a flawless powerpoint & she f'd me
worst professor of all time. I had to take this rat and she basically screwed me over for transferring the class. She grades unfairly and does not teach you anything, we have to teach ourselves and she barely knows the subject
i was pretty sure concentration camps were liberated quite some time ago...
By far the BEST professor I have ever had. She has such a passion for teaching and wants ALL of her students to succeed! If you want a teacher to hold your hand, she isn't the one to take. She gives you everything you will need to succeed and do well in the class, but it is on YOU to actually do the work. FANTASTIC! I highly recommend her!
by far worst professor ive EVER had, has the worst grading system i have EVER seen, does not grade tests fair at all, picks favorites easily, dont believe the other comments that says shes the "best" their all lies she says dont believe this site, once again a lie, most will only do good in the class if you have taken it before
VERY GOOD PROFESSOR. Calculus 2 is the hardest math and I was able to understand it for the first time around. She is always there to help you but she DOES NOT hold your hand. Grades fairly.
By far the WORST Professor I've ever had. She picks favorites and grades unfairly. Zeroes will be given on completed assignments, even if they are turned in on time. Weitz will often tell the class to choose their own style of formatting. Don't do this. She doesn't hold true to it and will deduct. Follow her presentations EXACTLY. Awful professor.
WORST teach ever, onyl grades on tests. Completly usless, doesnt help at all. Puts stuff on tests we were never taught. NEVER take her class, she blows.
Unhelpful, inconsiderate and outright rude. Weitz has got to be one of the meanest humans i've met in the 20 years I've been alive. Failed two assignments with points taken off for content that was present. I Emailed her to point this out and her response simply lashed out at me for one minuet lates to class. Even the tech-savy will suffer!!!!!!!!!
One of the most terrible teachers and humans to walk on earth. She grades unfairly, gives 50% for 7/10, hates to be asked questions, and puts students down. I can quote her, " you don't know what you're doing". DROP her class while you can & save yourself or get an unfair grade or dropped for lates(she counts it as absence).
I'm taking another professor, Tarek, right now and it's a world of difference. Tarek is patient, understanding, and works with us. While Weitz works against the class. DO NOT take her class. Unless you want to fail under BS circumstances.
She isnt understanding to any situation AT ALL! She grades really harshly and you should see some of the comments i got back from tests... You basically have to teach yourself because she doesnt do anything really. besides tell you youre wrong. and the other day she raised her voice to me and i was gunna smash every computer in the room
Hey man(comment below), I've been where you have been. If you want any chance of a fair grade you're better off checking you were graded fairly. If you weren't you should take it to the CSIT department to change it.
I was nervous about taking this class but it actually wasn't bad at all. Everything that was written did not seem to be true. She was so nice to my class and helped us out if we were having trouble. If you to go to class, do homework and pay attention and you will get a good grade. She is fair and wants you to work for the A, which is possible.
Prof. Weitz was a real inspiration to me. She is a HIGHLY intelligent woman and was ALWAYS there to answer any questions. She was very patient even when I was losing patience with myself for not grasping things.
Weitz is a good professor. I learned plenty in her class. was always willing to answer my questions and to help before or after class as long as she's notify ahead of time. Yes, her teaching style is at a fast pace but she has to be in order to get all the material done by the end of the semester.
Good teacher, had rules that were strictly enforced. I know some of my classmates had a problem with her, but they were always causing trouble in the class with breaking rules and talking back to the teacher. Tough class but if you know your basic MOffice, you should do well
hands down the worst professor ive ever had. Doesnt know what shes talking about often solves problem on the board wrong. Tough grader, take home tests are impossible. Has no problem giving out 0's on test even if you tried
hardest teacher I have ever taken. Her tests are not straightforward, often adding elements to problems to make it more difficult than it has to be. A nice person who probably didnt want anyone to fail, but doesn't understand how difficult she makes it just by adding one element we have never seen before. I understand calculus, but cant pass
Horrible teacher. Took her for multivariable calc in a five week session. She cancelled class twice, and was late, despite her mandatory attendance. She didn't cover half of the material in the syllabus. She is disrespectful, and often makes computational errors, when she works problems on the board(which constitutes the entirety of the class).
I found it difficult to understand what she taught, and even harder to apply. I took her for the summer and had a very hard time. Ended up spending hours teaching myself on weekends and that paid off. My advice is, don't take her unless you absolutely have to. Teaches off the textbook, all her examples are from there. Makes mistakes very often.
She is the worst teacher in the history of worst teachers. she gives an assignment and the place where we're supposed to put it isnt even open on cruiser. WAT.
Not what I signed up for. We don't even use computers and the class is called "Computer Game Development". All we do is listen to her lecture and she assigns chapters for us to read. Gave us the research paper assignment the day after you get a refund if you drop the class. Not much homework besides reading. Would not recommend her to anyone else.
For being called "Computer Game Development" there are no computers. I would title this class "History of Videogames". Class is OK if you are into history. Assigns a research paper you are bound to forget about. Vast majority of classes are used for lecturing
worst teacher at occ! unclear, not helpful, fast paced, rude and sarcastic
She is not professional, not understanding and irrational. For the final presentations, she locked the door when the class began to prevent late students from presenting. I never witnessed or experienced such "punishment" in my academic career.
For the love of anything do not take this teacher!!. Super duper late grader, doesn't grade much of anything until the last 3 weeks of class. Requirements for assignments are vague and are only given enough instructions for a C grade. Barley lectures for more than 20 minutes and takes points off an assignment for using code she taught in class.
Horrible teaching method, grades tests on very specific notes and grades on ridiculous standards. She also has a strange rule on her syllabus where she confiscates a phone of anyone who uses it in class. I'm pretty sure she not only can't by campus policy but she's more likely to be able to give detention(of which I'm certain she tried).
Jeez avoid this teacher at all costs! Terrible, irrational, and unfair. Take spouts off for using her notes but creates tricky tests based off her notes that she speeds through. Doesn't give students a fair chance. She is condescending too and she treats her class like preschool. She thinks she can drop you from the class if she wants.
I honestly don't understand how Weitz is still a teacher. She's rude, condescending, doesn't grade fairly and teaches in terrible ways. I not only had her for Game Development, which has nothing to do with the title, but I also had her for Programming. Instead of using a computer to code she started writing on the board! Avoid at all costs!
Makes it seem like she really doesn't want to be teaching you and actually told my class it wasn't her job and to go to the math tutors. She goes way to fast so you cant keep up or learn anything. Shes a nice lady and very understanding just a terrible math teacher. If you struggle in math I don't recommend taking this class.
The worst rated prof at OCC I think and for good reason. This course has NOTHING to do with computer games, idk why they even have it. Weitz was rude, especially when I asked to withdraw. I wish I could warn every student who signs up to take her for anything to avoid. I hope she finds a new career someday.
Puts in grades 2 weeks after you hand any paper or "game" in. Doesn't help you what so ever with work. I once asked a simple question. "When will the grades be online for the group project?" I got the most nasty attitude in response. Oh by the way, she is the only teacher that teaches Intro to game development. Also her tests are the worst. AVOID!!
This lady is the worst professor I've ever had. I am dropping her class ASAP because how awful, rude, and disrespectful she is. I WISH i was smart enough to come on this damn website and read these comments about her because then i would've never taken her in the first place. DO NOT TAKE HER. now i lost 500 for a class, yay.
As others have stated on here. Horrible. Avoid at all costs. Highly dangerous. Run away as fast as you can. Do not waste your money taking one of her classes. Looks for any reason for you not to pass her course when it should be the opposite. "Everybody with me?" "Get it?" "Everybody understand?"
Didnt want to take her again but her class fit best in my schedule. Same thing happened in this class as my last one, an Algebra class, where i'm getting an A then I start receiving failing grades & I can't see why. Ask her and shes always right and won't change the grade. Takes points off if she doesn't like the color of the text. Horrible & rude
As many have said, shes not one to cut you slack, but she always tells you what is due, and when. There is never any doubt, and you can always get help before the project is due. Treats you like an adult, the good and the bad.
She is very rude and makes you feel dumb. She grades very harsh. Every single little mistake you make is like 20 points off (just exaggerating). You will fail if you miss just 1 assignment and do poorly on the rest of the assignments. If you take this class and your not quick at note taking or computers, you would have to go to her office hours.
Mrs. Weitz is one of the best professors I had. The people who are saying she is unfair or rude are straight out wrong. Even if she was, it probably was because those people were troublemakers. She always made sure everyone understood the material, and when I got bad grades on projects, she gave advice let me redo them as many times as needed.
Great teacher, Ms weitz is good
Good teacher
GREAT
GREAT teach
I have come back years later to write this review because I will never forget how poorly I was treated by professor weitz. I hope professor weitz gets the life she deserves through how she treats others. Do not take her courses.
