Truly does care for her students and will make grade expections to those students who show the effort.

People complained that her videos were long but next to my hour long lectures twice a week, her 10-20 (at most) were not bad. I never opened the textbook and she taught concepts in a way that was relatively easy to understand :)

Zavodny was a good professor for what was a slightly difficult course. I notice the effort she puts in to try and keep the class interested even if it's a little corny sometimes. Grades are based off 20 homework questions per week, attendance, 3 tests, and 1 quiz. Attendance is graded through random mini quizzes she does every class (low impact).

I took her macroeconomics class and did not struggle at all in this class. As long as I showed up, took notes, and actively payed attention I would grasp the content. 

Most of the grade is homework and 4 exams. Homework was 30 minutes of work almost every week. She adds sound effects in her slides and I love them! Helps me stay engaged!

4 test determine a majority of your grade. She does reviews before the tests to make sure you're prepared. It wasn't a hard class, but some topics can be tricky, don't be afraid to ask questions. She always tries and makes the lectures entertaining.

Zavodny's classes, I have taken 2 now, are heavily based around lectures. The notes are useful, and she goes through a lot of in class examples that will be useful for the homework. She is pretty lenient on homework, and gives decent feedback.

Took her for Intro to Macro in Spring 2022. I thoroughly enjoyed the class and her lectures were good.

Very good professor. Learned your names and conveys material clearly. Every class you do an online review of the lecture and that counts as attendance. Easy material if you listen to lectures and do the assignments

Attendance isn't mandatory, but it will completely change your grade. The class requires some effort, but she is more than willing to help outside class. DOES TEST CORRECTIONS!!

Professor Zavodny is such a nice professor and always available if you need extra help! She provides a lot of information and examples in her lectures, so it is definitely best if you attend. Homework and exams were a little difficult due to the wording of the questions.

Professor Zavodny is one of the best professors at UNF. She has amazing lectures and her directions are clear. She prepares you well for every exam and provides you with materials such as PowerPoint and lecture recordings to succeed. My best advice is to make sure you go to class and go to her office hours if needed. Overall, a great professor!
