Reviews of professor Jillianne Smith

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Really terrible. Doesnt want to teach, its really obvious she would rather be a full time trainer. Unorganized, couldnt provide a syllabus on the first day. Doesnt show up for classes, gives no TA warning and TAs left struggling to find activities for us. Scattered and just bad

Jillianne is an alright professor overall. This class is a seminar so it's fairly easy to get through. Class meets once per week but sometimes she is unprepared for lecture if technology doesn't work for example. She acts like she doesn't want to be teaching us sometimes...Classroom doesn't seem like the best learning environment as well

Jill is not qualified to be a teacher. She will rarely attend her own class and does not even know what is going on during it. She will constantly put students in charge of the class and then ropes them into doing her own personal errands. This isn't a legitimate class.

Class had the potential to be really good, but was a bit of a let down. Class was cancelled probably 8-9 times during the semester. There was always confusion about where class was meeting and the exams were a shot in the dark. It's very much a student taught class and the prof watches the teaching

I really enjoyed having Jill as my professor this year, I feel like she has a lot to teach you if you're open to it and I found the labs to be super interesting. Heavy focus on hands-on experiences with horses, which worked really well for me. Definitely read the book!!
