DS 220
Quality 5/5Difficulty 3/5
This professor was always available to talk about coursework and even what it is like to be a professional in the field. It helped that she worked for a firm. She provided clear instructions on assignments. Her desk critiquing and grading were tough though.

DS 220
Quality 1/5Difficulty 2/5
Could not formulate a proper english sentence. VERY poor lecturing skills. Never had a professor who was more unprepared for the course in my life. Read directly from the slides, but would misread important key words nearly every sentence. I'm not even close to exaggerating when I say that her grammar skills are that of a 3rd grader. Close minded.
