I am graduating from another university in one year, and Sally is still one of the best professors I have ever had. I had her for 2 classes at Moorpark and I recommend her to everyone. She is one of those professors that will go out of her way to help you, and I can say that I actually ENJOYED going to her classes. She's a fun person to be around!

SALLY IS AMAZING... She made me a better student. DONT take her if you want an easy grade. TAKE her if you want to learn and retain it. I LOVED HER. She was a hard ass and wonderful and sweet at the same time. Never miss class, Study, listen to her, she'll check ur notes and teach you so much! I got an A with LOTS OF HARD WORK, TOTALLY worth it!

Sally's by far one of the best teachers I have ever had. She is intelligent, kind, & challenging. Her classes are hard but she gives more than enough time for all assignments&exams. I've been at Moorpark 2 years&in her classes I felt more educated with each lecture, something rare to be found in a community college where the objective's an easy A.

Sally Ponce O'Rourke is one of the most difficult teachers I've ever had. She is also, hands down, the best professor I've ever had. She makes hard stuff fun, but she doesn't teach a skate-through class and you will NOT PASS if you screw around. She will help you, but expects you to work and learn. Understandably, that's a problem for some people.

Most disorganized, rude professor I've ever had. For an online course, you have 50 mins to answer 48 test questions, she made us watch 3, 2 hour films in a week and asked one question on the test about one of them. Usually have 4-5 chapters of reading a week, and she blows off every single email I've sent her. But always emails about the weather.

Intro to behavioral neuroscience is one of those classes that require a lot of effort to pass. You can't just skate by without reading the chapters assigned and showing up to lecture. It is very dense. Sally is an excellent teacher and will help you through the class if you make the effort and put in the work. Be on time for retrieval practices.

Preferring her first name, Sally is a very caring individual and every lecture is taught by powerpoint. Much of the information talked about is not available online so you must attend class or get a student's notes. She enjoys critical thinking in groups and makes you work for your grade but is very fair.

I have mixed feelings about Sally. As a person, she is great. She cares about everyone on the campus. Sally is incredibly genuine and is an overall great person. However, her teaching can be a bit all over the place. I felt little organization in the class and I need organization. But if you do well in a sort of chaos, then you'll love her class.

Seriously amazing teacher. I was pretty hesistant to sign up for her class at first because of some of the reviews on here, but she exceeded my expectations. Sally (who prefers to go by her first name) is incredibly caring and hilarious. I went to multiple office hours of hers, and she always made sure that I understood everything. 100% recommend!!

Criteria and expectations were not clear at all. I do not have time to spend an hour trying to understand what her expectations / what she was looking for. I am a decent student and pleasing her felt impossible. Homework / discussions should need to have clear instructions, not a bunch of gibberish. I think an in person class would have been better

As long as you watch her lectures and do the study guides, you will pass the tests. Although pay clear attention to the test questions. There is an exam due every week.

Sally is one of my favorite professors. I took both her Honors Neuroscience and Human Sexuality class while at Moorpark and loved both of them. She is somewhat strict, but is always super clear with her guidelines and provides study guides for all her tests, which are pretty much comprehensive. Show up to class, do the reading, and you'll be fine.

I have had Sally for Human Sexuality and im currently in her behavioral neuroscience class. Sally is a caring and dedicated teacher who genuinely cares for the wellbeing of her students. Sally also grades very hard and has clear expectations of your performance from day one. she intentionally writes her tests to be misleading and difficult.

nice teacher but hard grader, Sally is knowledgeable but at times comes off condescending which is hard to do online.

Easy class. The lectures were from last year, which made her seem not completely invested. Her online formatting was very confusing as well. I feel like I learned more about her cats than I did about the subject.
