I love Ms. Holly. She's awesome. She cares about her students and takes the time to make sure we understand and enjoy her lectures. She's also a lenient grader.

Very good TA. She would go over every question for the exam during discussion and clarified everything. She also held review sessions before exams where she would go over the questions. If you take this class make sure Holly is your TA.

She was such a great Professor. She was very understanding and would give you 3 papers for the whole semester that were really easy.

Holly talks A LOT in discussion. I was hoping for a more debate-style format, but overall it's a very painless discussion. Only have 3 papers due for the entire semester and she's willing to sit down with you and tell you exactly what she's looking for. Papers are completed open ended so you are essentially able to pick your own topics. Take her.

Holly is a great TA. The material is very easy and doens't need much extra explanation, but she'll help you if you missed lecture or didn't read. I'm terrible at both math and science, and I got an easy A. Great class to take for QR A credit!

I think Holly is a really good TA. Sometimes the material was murky, but that wasn't her fault. I thought she did a very good job of clarifying things in section and went out of her way to be available and help students out if they needed it.
