Tally cares about her students but makes testing pretty difficult as the material is not all covered in class. She likes to use a&b/all of the above answers and often has typos and super long (more than half a page) question stems, so tests are super fatiguing even for someone who is prepared. She does offer a notecard, which is super helpful.Rate My Professors ↗
We almost never got through all of the lecture content in class. Tally is not the most engaging lecturer and can get into tangents, but honestly just wait until the study guide comes out and reference that for exams, all the extra other content can be ignored. Exams are hard, but fair, and it is possible to do well. I believe she genuinely cares.Rate My Professors ↗
Tally is a complicated professor. She is very kind and I do believe truly wants her students to succeed, but seemed constantly overwhelmed by the volume of course content she felt she had to cover, which lead to us never finishing the material and she had an expectation that we self-studied. Hopefully this class will be better across 2 semesters.Rate My Professors ↗
shes nice but honestly a bad professor. we didn't know our grades until 2 days before the final and the quiz questions are so confusing and not easily readable at all. shes a nice person but it was just frustrating trying to communicate with her or prepare for any test becasue the wording is so hard and content doesn't match up doesnt excuse sickRate My Professors ↗
I would not recommend Tally whatsoever. She is very disrespectful and struggles to get through content in the course. Be prepared to sit and listen. When hearing opinions of others makes it become very known if she agrees or disagrees. Makes many slight comments that come across as negative. I don't really think she wants anyone to pass her class.Rate My Professors ↗
Worst social work professor. Keeps using the term "illegals" in her materials to discuss undocumented immigrants.Rate My Professors ↗
