Reviews of professor Kathryn Sperry

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Fantastic professor, my favorite class all year. While you don't have to participate, you should definitely do it if you want to get to know the material. There was a textbook, but it was online and was part of the course fees. Prof. Sperry is a great lecturer and a wonderful person. Would recommend taking a class from her!

Dr. Sperry has good lectures when you're in class, but 65% of your grade is based on your exams and essays. You are allowed to have 1 page of notes (front and back) that you can use for your exams, but many of the questions are not formatted in the same way that she teaches the concept and she's a tough grader on the bi-weekly essays, I would pass.

This class was amazing and full of information. Really cares about her students and helping them succeed. Her online lectures were awesome. You don't have to read full chapters, just the pages selected on the syllabus, 3 short papers, weekly quizzes, and 4 exams noncumulative. At the end of the semester, your lowest quiz/exam score was dropped.

I had a really hard time with this class. This teacher isnt clear on how she grades things. She doesnt give good feedback and she grades really harshly. And the study guides for the exams always have things that arent on the exams. I dont recommend taking this class with this teacher. But maybe this was just my experience.
