Very concerned about everyone getting all concepts. Clear and concise.

VERY NICE LADY. SHE MAKES EVERYONE FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH ASKING QUESTIONS. SHE IS VERY CLEAR ABOUT THE TOPIC SHE IS COVERING. OVERALL, GREAT TEACHER!

very nice teacher, very helpful and patient, really cares and is passionate, good class despite of boring subject

the class is hard as it is, and she is a very nice lady, but her tests were extremely difficult

WONDERFUL!!

She loves to teach and makes sure everyone is learning and asking questions. Gives quiz or in-class assignment every time class meets. Tests are kind of hard, so be sure to study.

Excellent professor!

Great teacher...the best accouting teacher here. she's veyr helpful and explains things very well. Sometimes you feel like you in high school again but she explains it at level you can understand.

I liked Pelfrey a lot but many of my classmates did not. 311 is a weeding out class and a lot of the dumbasses flunked out. Its not Pelfrey's fault. Her cummulative final was about the toughest exam I've ever had.

Good class. All I have to say is "Knod, shock, or do something!"

She is by far the best teacher I have ever had, high school, college, etc... She is extremely helpful and clear. Don’t get me wrong, she is tough and her exams can be grueling but if you come to class and pay attention, pulling off at least a 3.00 is not

She really is an amazing professor!!!The best professor to take for accounting and is real fair... count on participating in class and attending as well as talking with out of class... she knows who puts in effort and who doesn't.

Helps you understand and does not go on until everyone gets it. Quizzes on every chapter, but does not overload with useless information. Best accounting teacher EVER!

Great teacher!

It's a tough class, but she's probably the best professor to take for it. She goes very slow if you need it and is more than willing to spend more time outside of class with you if you need the extra help. The only bad thing is she has a cumulative final!! I recommend her anyways.

Great teacher, actually teaches the material. Very helpful, and willing to place the class on hold if the entire class is behind. Best professor to take for accounting.

She doesn't really TEACH anything, just goes around the class and picks on people to answer homework problems. Asks us what we want to know.... how should we know? Tests aren't terrible, but she likes to throw some tricky things on there that she never talked about before. Good luck w/ this one!

Professor Pelfrey is a wonderful teacher! I really enjoyed her style of teaching and her class. Accounting does not come easy to me, but with her help, I did very well in the class.

She is a wonderful teacher and goes over each homework problem step by step. Her quizzes are easy, and she paces the class until everyone appears to understand. The only complaint is her two exams which are pretty difficult. I did poorly on them while doing great on homework and quizzes. Accounting is difficult to follow but she is the best!

This prof was terrific. Lectures were very clear and numerous examples made the material easy to understand. Her exams and quizzes were very doable if you study for them. I would recommend her.

She is the best ACC teacher I ever had. She goes over a problem thousand times until you understand it. I was so scared of taking that class, but I passed it...but i did study my a** off. This is a hard class, so you really have to study for it. But I definately recommend to take her. She's very clear on what she's teaching. About 6 quizzes & final

She is fair and doesn't harp on the small stuff.

best ACC professor at OU.

I bombed this class the first time because I simply didn't understand modified accrual accounting at all. Retook it and Pelfry was noticeably pleased when she saw I finally got it! She's willing to go out of her way to help her students succeed and understands that "stuff" happens.

You have to do your homework because she goes over it and calls on you no matter if you did it or not which is very intimidating! Overall she's ok and makes the best out of government accounting.

Not an easy class, but she makes it as easy as possible and is willing to help. Didn't care for the subject, but enjoyed the class

i heard ACC 210 was a really tough class... at least that's what my student advisor said. she was partially right. Pelfrey really made the difference with the course. she's extremely helpful, fair, and an all around excellent teacher. one of the best i've had at OU.

I think Pelfrey is a lot better than the rest of the teachers out there. Anytime I needed help and went to her office she would help. I think the exams were easier than the quizzes, b/c some of the MC questions are pretty difficult. Sometimes she may go through the chapters quick, but she will go back over it. Final was easier than the Mid-Term.

Very Conistent, No Suprises, Fair Grader=Straight number grades=No curve. Makes you do H.W. Manager, HUGE waste of time but mandatory. Really makes you understand the concepts, not just rote memorization like 200. Work load is pretty heavy but other than HW manager all the work is pertinant and helps. Overall a very good prof, would take again

Attendance is not mandatory, but make sure you attend! This professor is difficult, although she is extremely helpful. I had to work my rear off just to get a passing grade, and I have a 3.8 GPA.

She is very clear in regards to what she wants on tests, which are basically carbon copies of what she goes over in class. The forced class participation is a little annoying, and it can be especially grating when it's the one question you don't know the answer to and you're called on. If you hate talking in class, avoid, otherwise take her!

Professor Pelfrey is by far the best Accounting teacher I have ever had. Make sure you complete the homework assignmeants. The Mid Term anf the Final are tough but if you study the quizes you take during the semester you will be fine. Do not miss any classes or else you will be lost. Overall great teacher.

Great prof. Pelfrey enjoys teaching and wants students to do well! She won't move on unless the entire class understands the chapter. Weekly quizzes are annoying, but helps reinforce info. needed for the midterm & final. Both midterm & final are problems...no multiple choice in this class!

Great ACC prof! I def. recommend her. She is always very clear and wants to make sure everyone understands the material. GO TO CLASS! You can miss a lot of material by just missing one class. Her quizzes can be a bit tricky at times, but once you get the correct answers, use them to study for the exams. They are very similar to the exams.

Pelfrey is an amazing professor in terms of explaining concepts and clarifying questions from students. Actually cares about the grades of her students, which is a nice change of pace. Will even double check deducted points on quizzes/exams if you can explain your thinking. Only dislikes were the forced class participation (very high school-ish).

Great Professor! Sure the "forced participation" can be a little irritating, but it does motivate you to study and pay attention. YES- you need to do the homework. YES- you must go to class! But, she does genuinely care about helping students understand the material. Also, she's willing to help you during office hours if necessary.

I'm not a fan of accounting, but I needed this class to graduate. Pelfrey is a great teacher, she explains everything as many times as it takes for you to understand. Be prepared for her to randomly call on people to answer questions. This was a little scary because you never know when she's going to call your name. But overall, she's great!

I was an undecided business major at the beginning of this course. I'm now an enthusiastic accounting major. She is super helpful, clear, and great at explaining concepts. Not easy but very fair. I'd highly recommend her for any accounting class.

Amazing Professor! i failed accounting in highschool, and was not looking forward to this class in anyways! But with prof. Pelfreys way of teaching im now an Accounting Major! She helps you SO much and will do everything she can to make you understand accounting completely, she really does care!! I would definatly recommend her to anyone!!

Hard class, but I loved Pelfrey! She does call on people to answer questions, but I acutally enjoyed it. It helps you make sure you are paying attention. Exams were hard, no curve. And the online quzzes were very hard!As long as you put effort in, you'll be ok.

Professor Pelfrey is a very professional, scholarly, and fair instructor. Her class is challenging, but passable. Hang tough and you will certainly make it through.

If you have a choice of professors when taking ACC 200 and 210, take her and you will not regret it. Her classes are not easy but she does an incredible job of making sure everyone understands everything and is clear about her expectation. Her passion for teaching and accounting makes her a great professor.

Her class requires a lot of work, but when she's done with you, you will understand the material!!!

Easy class if you understand basic accounting principles. Teaches just the necessary concepts without bogging down the material with convoluted problems.

she's kind, helpful, passionate, clear about her expectations, and teaches extremely well. but to accurately explain what i think of her, let me put it this way: i not only want her to teach ever other accounting class i take at OU, but i also want her to be my grandmother. for pete's sake, we should give her an award and bake her a pie every class

Wonderful professor. She's fair and always willing to help out. Her exams are difficult but the final exam isn't too bad. She does curve at the ending of the class but don't rely on the curve. It won't help much. Yes, she does do forced participation.. BUT if you raise your hand often, she won't ever call on you. Overall, great professor.

Professor Pelfrey provided a real-world experience of what it is like to be an accountant. She doesn't have generous "office hours" because at this stage in the game, the students are supposed to competent enough to succeed without the professor holding their hand. As per the usual, read before class. Regret? Not asking polish cutie out ;)

Acc 200 is a hard class, but she was such a good teacher I ended up deciding to go forward and pursue a degree in accounting. You need to read the book, and the first few chapters are most important. If you dont understand them, you will fail the class. Go to the tutoring center! She is helpful if you go to office hours and wants to see you succeed

Prof. Pelfrey is great. All of these negative ratings of her are probably from lazy students. She simply wants you to work for your grade and is very willing to help. ACC 200 is a not an easy class but Pelfrey makes it possible. Show up, pay attention, ask questions, and do the homework she assigns. Do that, you'll be fine.

Pelfrey really cares about her students learning the material and will answer all your questions until you understand the subject matter. There is weekly h.w and quizzes but they're pretty easy if you understand the material. She also drops a quiz grade and gives you a chance to drop another one if you do extra work.

Professor Pelfrey is great! Goes over what you need to know for her quizzes and exams, the homework you do in class prepares you well for these! I wouldn't skip but she doesn't take attendance. Let's you drop a quiz and replace the quiz grade with online extra homework! This class is very easy to pass if you put in the time

Professor Pelfrey is a great professor. The class itself is pretty tough, but she is very helpful and thorough when she explains the material. The online homework also serves as an aid. There is about one quiz per week on each chapter, two midterms covering about four chapters each, then a cumulative final. Ask a lot of questions and you'll do well

Pelfrey is a really great teacher. She expects you to read the material before class and only teaches the numerical stuff, not really the definitions and concepts. Its a difficult class but she goes over lots of problems and makes sure her students understand the material. The textbook is required because there's online homework but its really easy

Great experience! She really cares about her students understanding of the material. She assigns homework and then goes over them the next day and answers any questions you have. She will go back over anything you're struggling with, you just have to ask.

Professor Pelfrey made accounting as easy to understand as possible. There are 4 exams and a final. She was always straightforward about what to expect on these exams. I did spend a lot of time studying for this class. She genuinely cares about her students and wants them to succeed.

There's a quiz every class. Do the homework and you'll be fine. Lowest grades dropped, class was curved. Take notes, not all information in lecture is written on the board. She has great office hours and will email back within 24 hours. Loved her!

I loved this professor, I wish she taught more accounting classes. I've tried to take this class 2 times prior to this and she has been the best teacher by far. You can tell she loves the subject, and she wants everyone to succeed in accounting. 10/10 would take again.

Answers all questions quickly, willing to work around your grade if you accidentally miss an assignment. 50% of grade are weekly quizzes (one dropped), 20% final, the rest is HW and participation. There is HW online and optional HW out of the book. Do both since she teaches through the HW. Amazing prof, cares for her students. Dont skip class

The class is a hard class but Sandra is very nice and cares about her students. She is a hard teacher but very helpful if you ask her.

People putting in minimal effort would probably say Pelfrey is the reason they didn't do well. No, Pelfrey is outstanding. She is very clear and is more than willing to go over something as much as needed for it to be understood. She really wants people to understand. She's a tough lady, but really caring. I love accounting after taking her class.

She really is a great professor, she will go over everything you need to use in class. If you are struggling in her class you need to try harder. She will consistently wait for questions from anyone in the class and will not move on until you understand. Weekly quizzes account for a large portion of your grade but they are almost direct from the HW

I took Professor Pelfrey for ACC 2000 and 2100. Accounting can be challenging, however, Professor Pelfrey was always willing to answer questions or go over topics again. She really wanted students to do well. Her lecture were always very helpful as well. I would definitely recommend taking this professor!

I just dont get the bad reviews. Prof Pelfrey is a pretty good professor. The class is well structured and shes very knowledgeable. Honestly, I never even attended a lecture and I still found the class the be easy. The only aggrevating part was the small project which had arbitrary grading and just dumb expectations .
