She doesn't use the book, her notes are typed, but tests do not always reflect the noted material
really nice, and she is hot
She is really cool, just don't come in late. She is very attractive so it's hard to to pay attention, but her test are fairly easy. She is worth taking.
Wish I could take her for more classes. Brings great speakers. Always upbeat. Easy on the eyes.
She was very entertaining, attractive, and is interested in helping. She seems like she would be a good advisor for business students because she knows which classes you should be taking next.
She is extremely hot. She really does not teach from the book we just talk about what is happening in the world of business everyday. She hates it when people come in late and she takes roll on fridays when half the class is never there and that accounts for 10 percent of your grade. Her tests are very easy and straight forward
I wouldn't say she was the easiest teacher, but her class is very straight forward. She is rarely takes roll, but does give "projects" on days that lots of people are out. We didn't use the book, she thinks it's a ripoff when the info is available on the web. I would take her again.

Great Teacher
This class was incredibly easy. The professor was uninformed and often times appeared to be learning the material as she taught it to her class. If you want an easy "A", then choose this professor, but don't expect to get much out of it.
She's extremely funny! She definitely gets the class active in discussion. She never uses the book- don't even buy it. Her notes come from the book website, which you'll have access to. Her test can be difficult- only because you never really know what to study for. Come to class. She takes random attendance and gives random assignments. Be there.
Fun. Brings speakers and outside exercises so we can do more than just book work. Loved her project.
Great class. I'm ex-military and loved real world examples. Lots of energy. Very helpful, treats us like adults (assuming you show up for class and act like you want to be there!). She has way more patience with the needy younger students than I would. 10 inclass assignments, project, 3 tests and powerpoint lecture. Go to class & you'll do fine
Very enthusiastic she LOVES to talk, and it's always interesting stuff. Checks attendance on Fridays often. The test can be hard, b/c of the wording. Highly recommended!
Really good class. Easy to understand and she keeps the topics entertaining. Make sure you show up for class though, especially on Fridays
Loved her! I didn't buy the book and still made an A. I just studied the textbook's free online quizzes the night before the test. I never minded getting up for her class on Friday.
This class was a joke. She taught all of this stuff, and then like NONE of it was on the test. she takes random attendence. However, she is superrr nice and always talks about random stuff that has nothing to do with anything. Bring your laptop and just do whatever the whole time. Youll see why after about 3 classes.
Has a million contacts, even had a TV film crew come into our class when we had a famous business speaker. NICE lady, wrote me a letter of recommendation and I got the job. Her class was full of WAY too many YOUNG freshmen who thought they were still in high school. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED..
great teacher. only bad thing is she does her assignments of fridays, so you have to go! also very attractive, never a dull moment
Shes super energetic, and extremely personable
Great teacher for intro, really gives you an insight to each major. Entertaining and really knows what she's talking about. Easy tests. Attendance is not taken every day but randomly so it pays to go to class!
Took her summer A. Fun class, lots of speakers. Nice lady. Worth taking
Positives- She is very nice lady. Brings lots of speakers which helped me decide on what major I wanted.Negatives-Not very good teaching skills which made me have to teach this stuff to myself. Some days all we would watch was celebrity apprentice in which I learned nothing out of business. This class was the first C I ever made in college.
She is a very nice lady and likes when students participated in class. We watch Shark Tanks episodes every monday so we dont get bored and also she like to end class early.
Slightly immature, very unprofessional, and terrible teaching skills. Not very helpful either. I would not take this teacher.
Fave class. So glad my sorority recommended her. Great teacher. A little too patient with those silly immature freshmen. 3 tests and 10 online quizzes. My bf took that other teacher and she made a D. Take.
We never learned or did anything in class and she expected us to know everything on the test. She was a nice lady though but I wouldn't recommend her if you are serious about your grade.
She spent too much time being sociable, showing videos, getting speakers, and going off on little tangents to teach anything. Coming from someone who likes to take notes and stay on the ball, it is virtually impossible to follow her and write down anything I'd need to know for the test. The online slide show did all her teaching.
Very hard to keep up with her in class as far as taking notes. All she does it show videos and talk on and on and on about nothing really. If you want to learn anything or do good on your test just skip class and study your powerpoints. Love the teacher but you don't learn much of anything in her class.
easy teacher easy course easy A
Easy Peasy. She's a really cool lady, and overall definitely a good introduction to business class. She is definitely willing to help you if you are in class often. Plus she's pretty foxy
She is a nice lady, but she is not a very good teacher. She LOVES to talk and will just ramble about useless stuff for the entire class. All she does is go on the computer and show you business's websites. Did not learn very much in her class at all.
She is really nice and you can go to her office to see old tests from previous semesters, which is extremely helpful because she honestly does not teach. I did enjoy her class, but as far as learning goes, I just did not learn a whole lot.
Shows random things from the internet at the beginning of class & teaches the last 10 min. She doesn't use the book and her quizes or tests dont reflect the notes online at all! i recommend buying the book on amazon, i got it for 3$ & i got A's on my test useing the book! Goodluck.
Good luck getting in her class. ALWAYS full. Now I know why. $40 code required.Good teacher,never boring! Show up and act interested, you'll do ok. Uses examples from biz,current events,etc. Complaint: was too patient with all the immature freshmen in our class! RECOMMENDED FOR SURE
Perfect example of good person, maybe good at business, mediocre teacher. Seems like this is her part time job by the way the class is. Lectures on ideas but understanding the stuff is up to you. Easy A, just dont expect a lot.
First of all she is very sweet. very outgoing (almost overkill) very easy to approach (for better or for worse) as she seems to attract some really (very dense) students, who come to her with their problems and hold up class. Very easy if you can teach yourself as it is common sensibility for the most part You really dont need to attend to get an A
She is helpful if you ask questions. However, she doesn't really "teach". She talks more about current events and the internet instead of about things you need to be learning in this course. I felt like I learned on my own by studying and reading the book. She takes attendance randomly so you almost have to go to class to avoid getting a 0 on those
Funny, mostly nice, but doesn't stay on topic. It's more like a discussion on current affairs in the business world than a class. She really is nice and would be a good teacher if she just focused, but she doesn't. Don't go in expecting to learn much for your future classes. She also tends to be sensitive/play favorites, so be careful.
The class itself is a very easy class. She knows it and doesn't want to try to make it difficult. That's why she tends to chat about current events and such. Still when she goes off topic it is business related even if its not the current subject. But easy teacher and no real complaints, just show up and pay at least SOME attention.
She comes to class late EVERY DAY, but that just means I can too. She doesnt teach but the website is so simple the material is easy to learn. Her tests are based on the books website. She may get a little annoying at times, but if you want an easy 3 credits I recommend.
Unprofessional and not a good teacher. Cancels classes almost every friday. Dont disagree with her, she talks s--t about you to her other classes. Classes are a waste of time but overall the class is pretty easy and doesnt involve a lot of studying to get a good grade. Probably not very helpful for higher level classes though.
WEll i did not have probelm with her. She help me! All in all a GREAT professor. true she is late but hell im late too.
I liked this professor. She talks A LOT but that's just her personality. She's one of the few professors I've had that actually incorporates real-life events going on recently in her teaching. Good professor for advice on your career to. Easy if you do the work and listen in class.
This teacher is sweet but she does not teach the material very well. She uses the online program and does weekly quizzes which help when studying for the test but you have to find the answers on your own because she doesn't really give them in class. Does a lot of video clips but never really goes over terminology.
She is a very nice person. I took the class over the summer semester and enjoyed the class a lot. She runs the class much like a seminar in business. Never cracked open the book. If you have any real interest in business than take the class with her, it'll be worth your time.
The class itself is very easy, but she is very unprofessional and loves to talk about herself. I never bothered going to class because I didn't want to hear about what show she watched the night before, still got a B in the class though.
Good teacher if you go to class then you will make an A. We didn't use a book just went off of power point online which the tests were directly related to. she does go off topic, but every teacher does. She will also give you a couple extra points if you attend most of the classes. Definitely take her.
Don't bother taking Ms. Roach, yeh she's nice and all but she spends the majority of the class period watching youtube video's and showing you recent things in the news that arent related to business. she'll spend 10 minutes teaching and test you over everything else other classes learn. absolutely horrible.
really nice, intro to business, easy A, go to class for random bonus points, cancels friday class OFTEN, not very many tests.. take her if you can, its not hard.. she likes active class participation.. does show many vid clips and such.. class usually gets out 10 mins+ early every day..
This is a great professor, she shows videos and stuff that relate to business and you don't really feel like you are learning but when test time comes it just clicks. Attendance isn't mandatory but the class is 75% participation so if you aren't there you lose a lot of points. Overall great teacher and fun activities in class. (:
She is really easy, she usually cancels class on Fridays, and if she doesn't its because you have a quiz, which is usually just attendance. I never even bought the book, everything was explained in class.
My fave professor so far. Tells us what we need to know and lets us go. 10 in class or homeworks and 2 tests. Don't waste your time with the other lady, friends have her and are failing. Didn't make us buy the book. Always in a good mood. This class helped me pick my major. Fun/easy.
I had her for Honors Intro to Business, and she was my favorite professor. She's really friendly and doesn't mind if you walk in late. She has connections everywhere, and so many people who know her find great jobs easily. We didn't use the book at all, had one test and the final, and participation was 75% while tests were 25%. Best teacher.
She is really cool. We don't use a book because anything we could learn about is on the news or internet. She has two tests a semester, a couple quizes and in class assignments whenever she feels like. You can only use one make up class so attend everyday. No need for notes it's pretty common sence.
Take this professor!! So easy!!! Grades are mainly based on your attendance in class, but it's worth coming to class everytime to never have to study for it. I def recommend takingher. EASY A
AMAZING, she makes class so interesting and relevant to real life. i had class at 8am and she was so cool about us coming in late. the only bad part about her class is that it is mandatory if you want an A. her tests are based off of an online textbook but she made it clear that if you come to class every day you will receive an A. TAKE HER(:
Mandatory attendance. She messed up my grade and three of my friends in the class and thinks were looking for free grades. So your grade depends on if she keeps track of your stuff.
Very Nice teacher, I enjoyed her class and got an A. You have to go to class but she is interesting and you have powerpoints to study by for the tests. Take her if you can!
Take this class! She is an interesting teacher and always jumping around keeping your attention. You have to come to class everyday, but if you do you pretty much get an A. Only 2 tests which are a small portion of your grade. Go to class and you're good!
Good teacher, she explains things very well. Class was fun and interesting and I learned a lot from it. She doesn't take attendance but i would not miss class. If you do not like very talkative professors then don't take her but I enjoyed her class and will miss it. Took it in the summer and there was no textbook required
Class is extremely easy. You usually go over powerpoints or watch various clips that relate to business. She sometimes takes random attendance, usually on Friday's. Just show up and you will get an easy A or B.
She's a pretty nice professor, as long as you do your quizes and come to class it's an easy A. Most likely you will watch videos or go over slide shows.. It was a very fun class!
Don't take this class if you desire to learn anything at all. We just watched TV shows in class and talked about random things. No quizzes, tests, or exams.
Take! Class was as promised: (NO formal tests, uses quizzes/videos/and participation grades) Show up & you'll do fine. Fave class / prof so far. Super helpful. She even referred me for a job! Who does that? Word of warning...Big classes(my class had 90 ppl!)
Class was usually very interesting. The type of teacher that genuinely loves her job and wants to help her students succeed. The class was pretty easy, but I would recommend going to class, especially on days when she knows there are not going to be a lot of people there.
Easy A class. Attendance not required but sometimes surprises with "in class" activities AKA attendance check. Homework is a breeze. Don't pass her up.
Her lectures have nothing to do with the content of the tests. All we did was watch videos and discuss the news, which was pretty fun. Easy A if you attend class. Attendance is not mandatory, but she gives pop-quizzes/activities that can really hurt your grade if you are absent.
Interesting teacher. She talks alot but the course is easy. If you have the chanve to take her...do it.
She talks none stop but she's funny and talks about real life stuff. She teaches using current events and TV shows so you don't have to do any outside class work other than the online quizzes. Textbook not needed, just need the access code. Cancels class almost every week and gives EASY online quizzes instead. Love the class.
Fun. Just gives weekly quizzes and in class stuff. Her class helped me pick my major and she recommended me for a SOAR leader!
She is very nice, but very talkative. She mainly talks about the news and brings in guest speakers. There is a weekly online quiz that is fairly easy, but has nothing to do with what is in class. She sometimes has in class participation and attendance, so be aware. all in all, i recommend her.
If you are taking BUSA 1105, you must have her. Her class is super easy, and she doesn't take attendance. Do yourself a favor and take her. You literally do no work in this class. It is a really fun class.
Great professor! She talks the entire class about real life business problems very interesting class. Weekly quizzes, random attendance checks, and occasional in class assignments. Easy A
BEST TEACHER EVER.
Very interesting class. She would go the extra mile to help you with things that were not related to class. She even helped me get a job. She is an upbeat teacher that really cares about her students.
Very nice and makes class fun! She mostly relies on current events and guest speakers. There were weekly online quizzes that were pretty easy, but we did have up to like 8 in class assignments/attendance grades. She even used the tech fair as class one day! Great Professor! Take her if you can!
We literally did not do anything in this class.
Very easy class and teacher. You are not required to go to class but it would be a good idea in order to get the class participation points.
Really easy class! No tests, just a few in class assignments and online quizzes. She sometimes cancels class and gives quizzes instead. Very talkative, but she makes the class interesting. Take her!
I recommend taking this class as an elective if you want to receive an easy A. She is upbeat, and literally talks the entire class period about real life. If she is not talking we have a guest speaker, although she says attendance is required, she does not really take it.
Literally if we don't do a damn thing. She cancelled every single Friday class, and gave us a super easy assignment to do for a quick grade. Class is full of guest speakers that she will find literally 5 mins before class. If you don't get an A you must be retarded. Easiest A known to man. Grade based on showing up. Doesn't always take attendance
Has the be one of the easiest classes I've ever taken. We almost literally did no work. Just one simple assignment a week. Class cancelled every Friday. The class is basically 100% participation. She is a very sweet woman. Lots of guest speakers and just talk about real life topics all class. Would definitely recommend.
Mrs. Roach is an amazing intro to business teacher. She makes learning the concepts very fun and interesting. We have had so many speakers from professors to alumni. You definitely want to get close to her because she can introduce you to many people that can help you in your business career.
No tests. She loves you if you play sports or if you're a senior, or just if you are a boy and you look in her direction. So if you're a boy take this class. If you're a girl get ready to suck up.
If you have to take this class, DO NOT TAKE THIS TEACHER! She is the worst, most annoying professor at GSU. She is not clear on how the grading scale works until she posts you grade at the end of the semester. She is very unclear and does. not. do. anything. for. her. students. AVOID THIS PROFESSOR AT ALL COSTS!!!!!!
Show up and you get an A. We didn't have class Fridays and would instead do a 5 minute "project". Attendance was basically only grade. A simple final. Easy A.
No tests, no book, no final, and you don't even need to take notes. Can't get any easier so just GO TO CLASS & get an A! She made class great because all we did was talk about basics in preparing for a future in business. She's so open to helping everyone with whatever they need. Her only problem was sometimes losing track of time. Still take her!
She is amazing. It is an intro course so of course it's easy. She invites a lot of departments and random people she meets to let you know their major or product. She will also introduce you to anyone you need her to. Their aren't many assignments, but there are some for a grade as well as attendance for a grade. But, I got an A and missed 6 times.
Hands down, my favorite teacher at the real GSU. Cares about her students and this was also my easiest class last semester. If you go to class and answer questions, automatic, you will get an A. Very few homework assignments and she does not make you go to Friday classes. No tests either. Turn in your homework and show up to class, you'll get an A.
TAKE HER! She is super easy. If you go to class (she gives attendance sign in sheets and in class assignments) and you make a good attempt on the homework, which is rare, you will make an A!!!
If you want an A without learning here it is.
Easiest class I've ever taken in my life. We "telecommute" on Fridays, and lecutures were always interesting. Lots of guest speakers, really funny lady. Just show up and do the Friday assignments and you'll get an A or B. The only thing is that you never really know your grade, so just keep up with stuff and participate.
Take her!!!!!! She is great all the way around.
This class helped me find an internship and my major.
I really enjoyed her class. She brings in people from the business world, from clubs on campus, professors from different majors, etc and they helped me figure out the path I wanted to take through Georgia Southern in regards to my major and extracurricular activities. Mrs. Roach is nice and takes interest in her students. Assignments are easy.
She is very nice and loves her job but honestly, the class seemed pointless. When I go to class I would prefer to learn about different fields in the business major than sit and watch a 20 minute video on how Walmart came to be. If you want an easy class that literally all you have to do is show up, I recommend this one.
Mrs. Roach was a nice teacher. She was my professor for intro to business. Pretty much we just went to class and listened to her talk; occasionally, we had a guest speaker come in. She doesn't give much work, it's mostly for attendance purposes.
Roach is a bit snooty and full of herself, but nice. BUSA1105 was incredibly boring - lots of guest speakers and occasional "lectures" which mainly consist of her reading us some random webpage that we're looking at on the overhead. Does not follow the syllabus at all. Show up to sign the roll she'll send around every few classes and you'll pass.
Great teacher, and great lady!!! Easy class too. You will definitely get an A if you show up for class. It's like 90% attendance haha. I definitely recommend!
She is a nice lady, but the class isn't too good. Its pretty easy but she talks about random stuff for the first half of class and then "content" the second half. Its super easy and an easy A, but you don't really learn anything thats helpful for the major.
Would take again. Big classes. She helped me pick my major and was always in a good mood.
Yes! My favorite so far. If you get anything less than a C, you didn't try at all. She even helped me find a pt job this summer.
Great Class! All of my friends have complain about their FYE classes. Mine is a blast. Helped me decide on my major!
She is a good FYE teacher but in class she calls people out alot and if you ask a question about the class she will never let it go and act like you are stupid for asking. also she talks alot about students in her class when they dont show up. also if you try to ask her a question she still 8/10 of the time cut you off and start talking about other
