Please avoid taking this class. I am only estimating that I have a B- based on about half of the assignments being graded and our final was this morning... The exams are ridiculously tedious and long for the time allowed, and I just think she expects way too much for an online class. She also requires us to complete weekly self participation assesments for points, yet will give you a different score if she doesn't think you participated enough after grading them weeks later?? Like she would remember how much each and every person participated in a specific class date.. |

I would give her a zero if I could. Her assignments are tedious and she is an insanely picky grader. Classes are also boring and she expects you to participate multiple times in every class to get full participation points which is just simply not realistic for a 35 person class. I would not take this class with her if you have another option. |

I came in to this class so excited and passionate to learn about Black women's history, only for her to snuff it right out. Her assignments are just so tedious and you don't learn anything. On top of that, her lectures are so boring that I find myself almost falling asleep, and I am not one to fall asleep in class! She doesn't respond to emails, takes forever to grade your work, and don't even get me started on the tests. I'm giving this 2 stars because she's actually really sweet and really knows her stuff, but this just goes to show that just because you're knowledgable, doesn't mean you can teach. Avoid unless necessary! |

She means well, but her class can be very boring. Many times I showed up to class and thought, "well that was pointless." She doesn't respond to emails, so you'll have to speak to her in person. |
