Quality 3/5Difficulty 4/5

She's super nice and engaging, has a passion for what she's talking about, and is easy to follow. She'll slow down if you ask her to, and she is very open to alter/change pace if need be. She's also very approachable and tries to get to know her students. But, the test are a little tough and nitpicky, be prepared to lose points over wording.
