Izabela is a great professor. Izabella's review sessions and office hours are tremendously helpful, but be prepared to spend an inordinately large chunk of time doing the homework and preparing for exams with this class (MS&E 451). She grades fairly, but expects much of you. Overall, I throrughly enjoyed the class and learned a LOTRate My Professors ↗
