Awesome teacher! Tell it like it is, offers extra credit. The tests are TOUGH but do the work and you can get an A

Awesome teacher. Interesting, intelligent. She wants you to do well, and she makes sure that happens.

Excellent teacher! Certainly a life changing class. I would suggest this class to my fellow students. Lots of work, but EC and if you do well no final at the end. DO THE E.C!

i got a better grade than I expected!

Very good teacher. She will go the extra mile to help you out. Good lectures.

Class stays full! She does such a great job, and I reccommend her to anyone wanting to learn about Sociology from a person who knows what she's talking about!

Though I did really enjoy her class one problem is that when she goes over the study guide the class before the test, it is not the exact same material that is on the test; make sure and do outside research.

she is so sweet and funny in a sarcastic kinda way. Keep up the good work!!

She is very soft-spoken which makes listening difficult. But, overall she is an excellent teacher; Her class has made me want to attend school. [which is saying a lot]. I suggest that if you're at all intrested in Human Sexuality - take her class. She's in

Reed was very open about her subject. Taught us to see things in others perspective. A great teacher and interesting class

Valerie Rocked. She was funny and really helped us understand ourselves as well as the world around us. She had an open door policy and was there to help her students succeed!!

Valerie Reed's classes are interesting. I agree that there are only a few major assignments, mostly in class discussions, which makes you wonder what your grade is. The assignments (research paper and presentation) are easy but the study guidesand the wording of the tests aren't very clear or precise.

i didnt really care for reed, because she lectured the entire class. she never mixed it up or didn't anything fun. she just stands and the podium the WHOLE CLASS. but she was very, very helpful with whatever her students needed, and she is very knowledgable. i know my other classmates liked her.

Very open minded, helps you through the entire class with whatever the student needs, she will take the time to get to know you. easy class, if you don't do the novel analysis, you will fail. very good teacher,i'd take her class again even if i didn't fail.

Awsome easy teacher, easy tests, just make sure you participate in class, attend, and focus. other than that, the only things that makes class difficult is a fat paper that is worth 1/2 of your class grade, so just make sure your good with your english and writing and paper skills. If you have that down, then your good to go.

This professor is highly reccomended for the student who can learn from lectures. I didn't study very much, however I took copious notes and did the major assignment fully. I took the professors advice and did use the textbook companion site. If you do these things you should really get an A, So long as your writing skills are up to par.

I had Reed for Human Sexuality. She's a good professor, just isn't really clear on how to pass the tests or what is actually going to be on the tests. Pay attention and take notes, do the assignments, and you'll pass. She also has a lot to offer on the subject. I liked her class a lot.

cool lady i didnt always understand some concepts but when i asked her she really helped me out. i took her for human sexuality and we would go off topic sometimes but it was always interesting and fun to go to class.

I enjoyed her class, it was interesting and she explained everything in way that it could relate to everyday life. I would reccomend that you go to class there are some group activities, I missed the midterm and still got a B. Her final paper is most of your grade, its 10 pages and a presentation but its not hard.

Class lectures were very interesting. She doesn't really explain what's on the mid-term and final exam.

Very amusing teacher. As long as you show up and do your work, you'll pass. The topics and stories she brought up in class are a little graphic at times, but are still quite interesting. I would take her again for sure!

Enjoyed Her Class.

Good teacher. Paper you have to write is ridiculous. I did well on tests but majority of class didn't. Ended with a B for the class

100% fun class. She's funny and has interesting way of teaching. Graphic but interesting articles. You can just borrow book from library Don't need to buy it. Just need for studying cuz she doesn't really clarify whats on the test. Teaches you a lot about life and the real world. A lot of the notes are on the test. This class is a 10

I took Ms. Reed for Sociology 101 this Semester and she was a great professor! She is definitely difficult considering she grades off of two quizzes worth 50 points each and a paper worth 150 points, as well as participation and extra credit. I got an A on the paper and failed both quizzes, and still got an A in the class. I'd recommend her!

Reed is a great instructor, she knows her material. Her class consists of (kind of hard) 1 final 1 midterm & 1 10 pg paper and presentation w/ extra credit. Honors work read a novel & write a summary. You would have to take your own notes from the textbook and study yourself. Wish she had powerpoints. But I have learned a lot about sociology.

all I can say is I had fun in her class. She is very articulate and knows her stuff. True, it is a lot of lecturing however, what would you expect for a sociology class. Prof Reed I had a great time in your class thanks for all the help you provided me...

Ms. Reed has a very interesting way of teaching this class. I really liked her a lot. In order to keep up with this class make sure you read your novel and take good notes! Should be able to pass this class with no problem!

Dr. Reed was great. She gave lots of real life examples of concepts. Test were fairly ambiguous. I didn't study much, just went over concepts the night before. Passed this class as well as SOCI-125 with an A. She give a paper which is super easy. She is a great prof, I loved her! It just takes awhile to get used to her teaching style.

For this course Ms. Reed teches strictly out of the book. She does give a few group projects and a couple tests. The most important thing for this course is the research paper she assigns. Get an A on the paper and you can pass, get an F and there's nothing you can do to save your grade. She will walk you through the paper step by step. Good luck!

Professor Reed was awesome. As long as you make an actual effort in the class it's not hard to pass at all. The tests were all textbook and online for my class at least, and the novel analysis is the biggest assignment. She knows her stuff and actually applies her lectures to real life, loved it! Just participate

I took this class my first semester of college. Ms. Reed is a great teacher, I learned a lot about the science of people. Do your work on time and give it your best effort. You must participate in her online course or you will lose valuable points.

She took over my online class midway through he semester. Considering it wasn't her class and she had to go off someone elses criteria I thought she was great.

Sociology 101 was the first college class I took and I loved having Professor Reed. She makes the topic interesting and pushes the boundaries. Everything she says is interesting because she's very animated. If you want to pass this class, show up and do your work. The class was not too hard but it does require effort. Don't procrastinate!

Professor Reed is a great teacher! I really enjoyed her class. I will say it was really lecture heavy and I'm more of a visual person so it was tough to pay attention, but I learned a lot from her class. If you need a good Soc professor that will tell you what you need to know, take her!

Reed is obviously very well educated in sociology. She gets really into the lectures with many stories and applies it to life. Make sure you read the textbook because sometimes the lectures get behind. If you need help see her during office hours and put in extra effort. Few assignments and she grades tough. I wish she taught more sociology classes

I took soci101 as a fast track class, easiest A I've ever gotten. Mid Term and final are the only tests and they are both online and you get 3 tries on both, she takes the highest score. I got 100% on both. My favorite professor yet. She cares a lot about each student individually. Lot's of engaging group projects that aren't busy work. 10/10

Professor Reed inspired me to reach way beyond what I thought I was capable of. At 60 years old I decided to go to college and at first I thought I could never pass her class but she guided me and helped me by raising the bar. She is my favorite Professor and I would love to have her in another class if possible.

She has a very clear syllabus on what to expect. You have a midterm, a final and a novel analysis paper that includes a presentation. There is a weekly group assignment as well. Great class for someone who just wants to get past the basic gen ed and move on. Show up, do your paper and you'll pass.

Professor Reed is amazing! She is really nice and cares for her students. The grading system mainly revolves around the novel analysis paper, a couple of tests, and group work. It is a lot of work, but it is worth it because she helps out a lot. 10/10 would recommend for sociology!

Her class consists of 8 papers and 8 responses. She is very specific in what she wants. Make sure you do it or you will lose valuable points. She requires 2 scholarly articles in every paper, the use of the videos she provides, and the textbook to be included in each paper with a min of 350 words. Only 2 tests. Do the work and you will get an A.

Prof. Reed did a great job of relating the class content with real world examples. If you have to take this class as a requirement I would recommend her. Lots of group work and lectures, a few tests, and a novel analysis paper with a speech at the end of the class. Even though it was lecture heavy, it was very interesting information.

Prof. Reed knows what she's talking about. Her lectures are informative using life examples and discussions are fun. Grading criteria are clearcut, a midterm test, a final test, a final project worth 150 points, and about 4 or 5 group projects. Extra credit for a chance to add 35 more points, so many chances to get a decent grade.

Be ready to write and research on your own. Class is easy if you're okay with writing. Only 6 discussions (discussion due one week, replies due the next, then repeat) and 2 exams. Discussions and replies are lengthy. Learned a lot from this class, prof is knowledgable.

I found this sociology class very interesting, I loved every topic we learned. Professor Reed might be a tough grader but she gives great feedback on your work.

As an honors student this semester, she was quite wonderful and understanding. Be sure to communicate with her if you do come across issues or need assistance with your discussions. TIP: Follow the discussion rubric. Majority of work was through discussions (6 total) with 2 tests (midterm and final). I love her class and would 1000% recommend.

I enjoyed taking this class. Be sure to carefully follow the grading rubric for each discussion because failure to do so will reduce points. Lectures were in-depth and covered the information from the textbook. The exams are straightforward, and you are given multiple attempts to complete them. Professor Reed cares about the success of her students

Professor Reed goes above and beyond wanting her students to succeed. She gives such good feedback to help you improve your work and knowledge, and is willing to work around your schedule as long as you show effort. She communicates very well, is super understanding, and offers extra credit opportunities. I strongly suggest taking her course.

Get ready to read! Professor is very accessible and very knowledgeable.

Professor Reed is a great professor. Her class consist of 2 exams and discussion boards. Her class is an easy A as long as you show up, even online and do the work. She has a clear grading criteria and rubric. Follow the instructions and your will pass the class. She messages back in a timely manner, usually same day and cares about her students.

I loved her class, she goes above and beyond to help her students out. Just follow the rubric on discussion boards and remember that the min word count is 300. Her class is easy if you follow the rubric. If you need help she will happily assist you, just ASK for help.

Overall, this professor is super sweet and all her assignments are doable but take time. There's one assignment every 2 weeks. However, make sure you read the rubrics because if you don't follow them, you will lose points. If you do lose points, she allows you to correct it and gain the points back.

i enjoyed this class a lot! the work can be time consuming, but it is pretty easy & the content is interesting. the only assignments are 2 exams & a discussion post every 2 weeks. she also offers easy extra credit. grading can be a little delayed, but she responds very quickly if you need help. just follow the rubric and you'll be fine!

She was a great teacher, allowed you to resubmit assignments for re-grading and offered a good amount of extra credit. I took her in-person class and she is a very sweet lady who you can tell is passionate about sociology

Professor Reed's class isn't hard if you follow the grading rubric. She offers opportunities to improve your grade by allowing corrections on assignments. I find her assignments to be clear and easy to understand. If you need help don't hesitate to reach out to her. She cares about her students, and I would definitely take her class again.
