Sara Misurelli is amazing. She really wants you to learn the material, and will probably turn you into an Audiology major after you take her class because you can tell how passionate she is about the area. She is willing to help you with ANYTHING ranging from which dog to buy to grad school to her class.

Dr. Misurelli focuses on teaching, and it shows. Students in her classes actually learn from her as a teacher. This school needs more professors like her. She is also a wonderful research scientist and really helps students explore research possibilities. She seems to be doing exactly what she should be doing in life.

CSD320 is a really fun class, and Sara makes it even better. She explains everything clearly and makes sure you are well prepared for the exams.

If you go to class and study the powerpoints, you will get an A, no questions asked. DO NOT BUY OR RENT THE TEXTBOOK! Everything you need is in the powerpoints. If there weren't three random attendance checks, I probably wouldn't have gone to class.

Incredible professor. By far one of the best I have had in my college experience. She wants to be there for the students and is someone you can go to for any help. CS&D major needs more professors like her. Audiology can be dry but she makes it fun and by the end of the class, you feel like you have learned a lot. So glad I had her for two classes.

She is there to help the students and wants everyone to do well. Great intro to the audiology field. It could be difficult to focus in class because lectures are kind of dry.
