She's actually good teacher and nice lady. You do have to read the book before coming to class if you want to get the most out of her lecture.

AVOID!Out of 122 students 75 failed the first midterm and 97 failed the second midterm. She doesn't give you a study guide for the tests and just tells you to read the book.Not very helpful when class meets every other week and you're basically teaching yourself half the quarter.Only take if you don't want to learn anything and just ride the curve.

Speaks openly with students about topics but tends to drag on. Need clearer lectures. Didn't like online homework through PearsonLab.

I took her for Econ 201 (B) and 202 (A-), both are hybrid classes (go in every other week) the class isnt even that hard. I half-ass read the book and did all the homework with minimum 93%+ on every hw assignment. You can basically skip every class and just go to the tests and you'll do fine. just don't fall behind.

*Hybrid Course* If you are going to take this course READ! READ! READ! If you can get a non-hybrid course with a different professor, do so! She teaches through hybrid course, so half online and half face to face. With her classes you meet every other week. You basically learn form the book. There's no prepared lecture, she just wings it.

Let me start by saying. Do the homework assignments don't avoid them it is 25% of your grade which is worth more than your first midterm. You will do bad on all your tests but walk away with a B!!!! The class is based on a curve. Don't stress it, but I do encourage you all to read!

She's a good professor, she curves and is willing to help you if you go to her office hours. I recommend her if you actually put some effort to class you will pass with an A.

Took her for Econ 201 (B+) & 202 (B-). She curves so you'll probably pass. However, if you want to learn, read the book, do the homework and quizzes, and study the study plans online. She can be intimidating, but she means well. READ THE BOOK BEFORE GOING TO CLASS! that helps A LOT.

I took this professor for Econ 2010&2020 online only class. If you are planning to take her both times then pay the $100 for the access code good for 1 year from the McGraw Hill Connect site, if not then its $75 per semester. You also have to pay $15 for the wall street journal assignments but only if you take her for Econ 2020. Easy A no worries.

She is a terrible professor. Very boring and not methodical in teaching. Read the textbook and work out problems with classmate. Take another professor to have better discussions.

Online class is pretty easy. Each week it takes about 2 hours to finish all the work of that week. Write 4 articles which are 1 page each about econ. The tests are online and all multiple choice which are pretty easy.

Easy class as long as you know how to organize your time. Each week was consisted of one chapter and however many sections they had. Took roughly 2 hours to complete each. Midterms took hour and half, Final took hour. Organize your time and you'll be fine.

This class consisted of one chapter every week, along with homework and a quiz after. It's alright but just keep track of your time management and you should be okay.

All assignments and lessons are done through McGraw Hill and are due weekly. There are 2 midterms and a final. She does not send reminders about assignments but assignments are due every Monday so you have all week to do your assignments.

You use a website called McGraw and it has your hw and test. We were notified last minute about completing a semesters worth of step1. She seemed very unorganized with the classwork and website used, a lot of self reliance. Easy hw, 2 midterms,1 final, class was easy but would not do it all over again.

keep in mind if you take this professor, she was retired and she was called as a back up. she also suffers with depression, when she was teaching my class we would meet up once a week, classes only lasted 3 or 4 weeks when she send an email stating there will be no more online meet ups. her hw and exams were very easy bc most answers are on google.
