Reviews of professor Susan Russell

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
A passionate teacher with very interesting lectures! The first exam tripped me up. Make sure you skim through your exam at the end there are questions that are worth like 10 points each. I almost ran out of time and had bad anxiety because of it. Going into my second exam I started with the last questions first and did a lot better. Earned an A!

Professor Russell is amazing! I took her 8 week summer course. She made everything so easy to understand. She had 2 lectures, assignments, and quizzes due a week. Watch the lecture + have your homework assignment open, answers to homework are in the lecture. Do the study guides for the tests + you will pass! Highly recommend!

Took her 8 week summer course for mirco. The class was very organized and she made it clear what needed to be due and when. She makes her own lecture videos, which cover about 99% of the material on tests and quizzes.

The class is easy enough as long as you actually read through the lectures/ppt's. Very nice teacher! The weekly quizzes can be a little tricky sometimes, but she is usually willing to work with you if you make a minor spelling mistake. I would definitely take her again!

I took econ101 fast track 8-week course with Professor Russell and it was a lot of work but she is very clear about what is due! You will never have to guess what is expected of you for that week, or pretty much the whole semester. She posted lecture videos and the power points for assignments and quizzes. I recommend this class.

Follows the same format of class everyday, and not in a bad way! Everyday there's a lecture, a crashcourse of the lecture you just watched, and then a short time after where she assigns homework that is usually one Canvas. She also has study guides for the tests that you can do for extra credit. She genuinely wants you to learn and succeed :)

Took her for Summer 2021. She was very clear on her grading and Canvas was easily laid out. Her lectures are great, use them for your quizzes after each chapter. She gives study guides for the tests which are really helpful! Homeworks not due until the Test due date but do quizzes after each Lecture. She responds quickly and is super sweet! takeher

Took 8-week microeconomics and was she made it not necessarily easy, but simple. She gave us all the resources we needed and actually made her on lecture videos unlike my macro professor.
