Has a tendency to teach only one way and is unapproachable. I loved the course but anyone could have taught it and I would have. Hoping there are more options in the future

Quality 5/5Difficulty 2/5
The best professor I have ever had. With enough effort, anyone can get an A, as she allows you to make corrections on assignments without losing points. Johanna cares a lot about her students learning, and is extremely down to earth.

Quality 5/5Difficulty 2/5
Hands down one of the best professors on campus. She wants you to understand the material so you get to correct things to regain the points and understand where you went wrong. If more teachers taught like her college as a whole would be an amazing and fulfilling experience. Great online prof too. Take one of her classes you wont regret it!
