Awesome

She teaches well but classes are dull. She wants participation in class but doesn't know how to motivate the class.

Poor

Huge amount of work involved in the course! You'll get a 100 slide powerpoint pretty much every class. There are two midterms as well as a final that you have to take. It was a bad idea to think that this was going to be a GPA boost, as it turned out to be the class that I worked hardest in. She's a dry lecturer, however she does seem to care about her students and the subject. Even so, the class is just terrible.
