Two words: Very well. Take this class if you like hearing foreign jarble and mispronunciation. I asked her where she was from and i couldn't even understand her response. Don't even try taking notes off the board, it's virtually impossible to read her writing. pretty much the only thing i could understand her say was "very well" or "fair enough", and you'll hear THAT about ever 5 seconds. Interesting enough and gets the class involved when you can decode her gopply-goop speech.
Positive:
Good professor.
Brings discussion into the classroom
Shows a great knowledge of subject matter
Negative:
Professor is boring or bland
Confusing or hard to understand
Expectations are unclear or lofty
Notes/lecture is confusing
I took her for Sociology & The Environment, and honestly I don't know how anyone could not get an A in this class. Her tests are straight from the lecture notes, and you could probably never touch the text book and still pass. She can be difficult to understand occasionally, but always dedicates class time to answering questions about the lectures. If you are confused in any way she is willing to explain further or help you as much as possible.... so if you care about your grade at all speak up and you'll get helped. This is by far the easiest class I took this semester, but I learned a lot from the class and was very surprised by that. Take good notes and ask questions and you'll get an easy A. Her syllabus sucks, but again, ask her and she'll clarify.
Positive:

Maybe for other classes she is a rough teacher, but for Individual and Society, SERIOUSLY take her!! She is VERY EASY!!! She tells you what will be on the test, and I have felt overprepared for all tests! (The test is one piece of paper front and back) Every day she tells us WE are the experts since WE live in this society. She lets us have discussions everyday, and she lets us OUT EARLY EVERY CLASS. I don't know how you could get any easier!!!

She is so bad its not even funny. To start off she will refuse to pronounce anyones name right (If your name is Weber, you will be known as Vey-beer..........ANyway, her tests are a percentige point of your final grade for every question. No one understands a word out of her mouth. I seriously almost freeked out and thought about beating her ass into submition more then once. DO NOT TAKE HER!!!! STAY ANOTHER YEAR IN SCHOOL IF YOU HAVE TOO IN ORDER TO GET A DIFFERENT PROF.
