All work on Excel. Group project and final worth 50% of final grade. Not a nice person. Will give zeroes when quizzes are not turned in within seconds. Not accommodating. She rudely asked me how I did I get in this course as if I needed to get approval. She is the prime example of what a teacher should not be like towards students

She seems to favor people who have taken her perviously for her 331 course. Class was hard. Term project and final worth 50% of final grade. Not a nice person. She wasn't helpful outside of classed. She asked several students how did they get into this course and who approved it. Very rude. Quizzes must be submitted with time limit otherwise a zero

One of the worst professors I've ever had the misfortune of taking. Was originally very excited to study VBA and excel but the professor made this class a nightmare. Was very respectful and patient with her but she insists on being rude. While other professors hope to see their students do well, she purposely makes everything more difficult.

Horrible prof. The entire grade is basically the final project and final exam (which she doesn't give a study guide for)

Attendance has no weight in grading, but will take points off your assignments and project if you do not show up. There is no midterm, nearly the entire grade is based on the final exam and final project. Don't know why UIC is still allowing her to teach. Pretty common feeling among most students who have taken her class.

Although the concepts in this class are interesting, I would give anything to have taken it with a better professor. Because she speeds through important concepts, you will end up having to teach yourself VBA coding in your free-time. Some professors' primary goal is their students learning - this is not the case here.

Terrible communication with students through email Get ready to teach yourself the material You must attend class because of class attendance points TopHat quizzes should never be used for this class ever again

A very weak communicator, and often unorganized. Does not have a clear basis for grading, and more often than not, being present in class is an absolute waste of time. I'm sure she knows this and enforces a strict attendance policy because of it, otherwise no student would waste their time being there. Most material will have to be self-taught.

As someone said, this was during the pandamic and she was not helpful whatsoever. Emails were rude and unaccommodating. She has no clue how to manage her class. Her online class was like a maze... so confusing. I saw an email from a student on what she said and couldn't believe it. So rude.

Do NOT take her class I mean it!!! She is the worst professor I have ever seen in UIC for following reasons: 1 Rude, her composition in email is disorganized as well as her logic in lecture. 2 Weak lecture, you cannot absorb any useful information in her class, except her "-ish" thing eg:"everybody undertand-ish?", which is hilarious and confusing.

Just plain RUDE by the emails she responds to her students and she expects us to give a good feedback for her at the end of the semester. No thanks. I'll rate you how you were performing your duties as a teacher. Lecture's were not even thought out clearly when she lectures. She says, "Do you understand-ish?" Seems like she doesn't care.

Disrespectful and RUDE. Seems like she needs to be trained in communication etiquette before she is allowed to teach again.

Terrible at explaining things, goes through everything too fast and teaches like students are supposed to already know the material. Makes mistakes when setting up online quizzes so the correct answer is marked as wrong.

IDS 355: 60% of the grade is based on exams. The exams are 50 minutes with 16 qualitative and 17 quantitative. There is no way the average student that is not stats heavy can do well, never mind finish the exams. There is another teacher for 355 that covers 1/2 the material, focuses less on Excel, and just emphasizes the subject matter. Take him!

attendance is 5% of your grade. if you are more than 5 mins late, you can't be counted for attendance. she takes attendance on the dot as well. every week, there is a homework assignment, quiz, lab, and video report due every sunday. there is another ids355 professor and i hear he is so much easier. she is very strict.

Do not take her, she makes everything more difficult then it has to be. In class she just reads of ppts. She doesn't solve word/number problems to understand her material during lectures. Expects you to learn everything on your own. She is rude, her accent makes it worse to understand class. A lot of math is involved in this class. Steer clear away

Professor needs to retire. She lectured heavy, would not recommend.

I have no idea why this professor has any good reviews. I am convinced she writes them herself to keep her job. She is the worst professor I have ever had and I am a fourth year student. DO NOT TAKE THIS PROF!!!!! You will regret and hate this class every single day. Everyone in my class absolutely despises this professor.

Absolutely listen to the 1-star comments. She is rude, she said during an exam, "Students are not allowed to ask clarification questions" and told to "assume" what she means. Very confusing instructions on every assignment. Told a student who asked a question during class"You should have been paying attention" and moved on. She gets annoyed easily.

Shes actually so rude and she didnt teach 331 for 3 years and would always be confused and get mad when you had questions. no exams had reviews and she would just say cumulative. shes actually not nice tho like fr dont take her.

Honestly one of the absolute worst professors/teachers I've ever had in my life. She did not understand half of what she was teaching. Claimed she would get back to your emails within 24 hrs. Never responded to numerous of my/other students emails. Taking her class is like signing yourself up for torture. Extremely rude and downright mean.

BY FAR, the worst professor I ever had. She is very rude, content is hard to begin with and then her way of teaching it is watching her do it once and then getting tested on it. Doesn't record lectures. Continuously uses the fact that the class is "400 level" to excuse her unclear instructions. Steer clear, GPA killer. Disregard any good reviews.

The worst professor I have ever had, even considered dropping the degree just to stop taking her classes. She is unapproachable, barely speaks/understands English, never gets back to emails, and blames you if a group project goes wrong. She rarely explains projects before assigning them, routinely messed up grades on Blackboard, and hates girls.

She doesn't actually know any of the material herself. During the lectures, she would constantly get lost while teaching, and sometimes the students would have to help her. This might also explain why she would get angry at students for asking questions. Also bad at responding to emails. After days of no response, she'd tell me to email the TA.

has 0 teaching capabilities

Horrible professor!!! She only reads off the slides and when asked to explain she gets upset. She has an accent and speaks very fast so you can't understand what she's saying. Not much homework.

She is friendly and seems to care but teaching style is bad. Takes attendance w/ Acadly and if you miss class there is no way to know what was covered. Gives instructions outloud in class &you can't refer back to them so write notes for exams&HW. Exams too long for 50 minutes. If you face technical issues she doesn't care. Doesn't record lectures.

take this class if you want to struggle. her lectures make no sense, total self study. she's very moody and hates giving extensions. I would not take her again

The worst professor I have ever taken here at UIC. She is very mean and unapproachable, any questions asked she makes you feel like you are a bother and is very discouraging. During an exam, she was unwilling to help me log in when I was genuinely confused and told me to figure it out myself and didn't bother to look at my computer to see the issue

While she may have extensive background in education of statistics and mathematics, many of her lectures are very difficult to follow. She is very fast paced and anytime you ask questions, the answers are vague and she will continue on with lectures. Overall, she thinks it's a grad student class and you're better off with another easier professor.

Worst professor/teacher I have ever had at any level of schooling. She's very rude when students ask a question and often says check the bb or figure it out yourself. Her accent doesn't make it any easier to understand her and she over complicates everything. Overall I wouldn't ever recommend someone taking one of her classes.

Yells at students, slams hands on desks, condescending when teaching material of course she's a master of the material but should be working in the field of statistics and not teaching statistics Takes attendance every day and on some days also makes you turn in assignments. Say's she'll curve exam or class grades and the last minute decide not to

Doesn't answer emails, has horrible communication skills and deadlines for assignments, dozens of group assignments that are hard to navigate because WE have to contact the other people in the group, overall the worst professor/teacher I have ever had the displeasure of taking.

This professor literally has zero respect for her students. Bad at responding, rude during class, and a very "know-it-all" arrogant personality. Gotta say UIC has some of the worst choice in professors

I had a very disappointing experience with this professor. The class was poorly organized, with frequent errors each week. Communication was lacking, as she didn't respond to emails. Additionally, sometimes the lecture materials were available on Blackboard on Thursday instead of the expected Monday. Overall, she is not suited for teaching.

The worst class ever. Assignments took me by surprise. The class was scheduled to be completed by July 13; however, the peer evaluation began on July 13 with a mandatory due date of July 15. That's ridiculous. The class had tons of mistakes and errors. Stay away if you can!

Really bad at communication and very arrogant with students. Would never take her class again.

worst ever

The worst professor at UIC and has the worst system for learning in-class. I mean nobody is forcing to teach you. if you don't want to, just don't.

The professor is unbelievably disrespectful and the most unprofessional instructor I've ever had. She snaps at students, says “use common sense,” talks down to everyone, and embarrasses people in class. The class is chaotic and miserable. Avoid this PROFESSOR at all costs.

If you wanna struggle take this class.
