She is one of the best professors I've ever had. She's so sweet and really cares about her students. Her lectures are super interesting and she always finds new ways to make them engaging. Her grading is fair and the assignments were actually super fun to complete. Overall I can't recommend her enough, if you take her class you won't regret it!
