I took Eternal Family FDREL200 from Sister Savage last semester. As long as you do the assignments/on time you'll have no problem passing. There are no tests or group projects but there are quizzes on reading. My only complaint with Sister Savage is she often took a long time grading and was always weeks behind on grades.

She is definitely more focused on entertaining her students and making sure they like her than she is focused on actually teaching.

This class should be titled "Sis Savage personal life 101." She'll go on tangents and waste literally 30 mins on her past failed dating experiences, or her old mission companions, complete with facebook stalking them in front of the entire class. I wish she would stick to the material so we could actually learn something and prepare us for tests.

She goes on way too many rants and tangents that take up nearly the entire class period. She frequently raises her voice at us to sing louder during opening hymn.

Sister Savage is a good person. However, she is not always doctrinally correct. If someone in class has a controversial question she becomes very defensive and it often brings a spirit of contention into class. If you feel you are in a good place with the gospel her class would work for you but I don't recommend it for anyone that is struggling.

Sister Savage had good lectures when she taught, but she got off of subject a lot. She got better toward the end. There were some classes where she'd start gossiping about past students and people in her personal life. Definitely not a good thing to do in class if you don't want to look like you're still in high school.

Sister Savage is not the right professor for everybody. I believe she is very smart when it comes to Old Testament time doctrine and she does have some keen insights. That being said, I also believe she passes off personal opinions as church doctrine, which is really not cool. Likes to yell too. Don't take her unless you can stand your ground.

Sister Savage seems like a great and very bold person. She knows her stuff but shoves her opinions into her teachings. A lot of what she had to say was very interesting but her comments she had in-between discussions rubbed me the wrong way. She's very loud and out spoken but is understanding when it comes to work. She is good to help students.

I loved taking Eternal Families with Sister Savage-Humphreys! She is so caring and funny. Her stories of application filled the room with the Spirit. There are a lot of opportunities to share with the class and a neighbor. All of her teaching was from scripture or prophets. The final was a personal project to exemplify what you took away.

She shares personal and meaningful stories, always ties lessons back to the scriptures and the Family Proclamation. Her stories make the topics feel relevant. If you don't like loud or energetic professors, this class may not be for you. However, she's passionate, engaging, and never judges.

Sister Savage (Humphreys) is an inspiration to us all. I loved her class so much! If given the opportunity, I would love to take the class again with a seriously inspirational teacher. What more can I say?

Only has her for a couple weeks before she had to leave due to health reasons but she is a great story teller and I liked how she invited the spirit. You get out of class however much you put in.
