Reviews of professor Jessica Louie

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I really don't want to give a bad rating because she is a nice person. But honestly, I don't think she prepared well for this class. There is no way that you could understand the material without reading the textbook. Her slides are minimal and she went through them really fast and skip slides. Not responsive to emails either. Not a lot of OH.

This term has essentially been self taught. The professor just reads off the slides during class, so attending class adds no value. Exams are difficult and do not represent the practice questions given.

took forever to respond to emails. when you finally get a response, in my experience, her replies have been quite unhelpful and not thought out. she mostly just read off the textbook provided slides. Basically, her lectures provided minimal value. Working through examples, again, copied from the textbook solutions with no extra value added. easy A.

Underrated prof. Bring tons of energy to a dull topic. It's great. You are expected to do readings and homework to succeed. Do-the-minimum students will not do well in this class. Exams are different from homework which is not helpful. Would recommend her. This was an MBA lvl class.

Spent $150 to do homework and read on WileyPlus. Recorded lectures (reading off PowerPoint slides with no detail) sped through problems. I felt it was hard to follow along as a student without prior accounting knowledge. Final exam (worth 30%) was pretty long and difficult IMO. Need to mostly self-study. Wouldn't consider her the best at teaching.

Nice and sweet teacher, but that's about it. Went through 60+ slides for the hardest chapter in one class (1.5 hrs). Lectures provided NO ADDITIONAL VALUE to the slides. All learning was done through the textbook. Took very long to respond to emails or not at all. Had her for COMM293. The teaching was significantly worse and exams MUCH easier.

Jessica is a caring professor who explains the concepts well and covers the course material efficiently. Although students say that the classes/examples were rushed, her lessons are more for the purpose of setting a foundation. The homework and exercises are meant to be practice that makes you apply the concepts. Overall, a great experience.

First of all, her exams are NOTHING like the practice questions she assigns, which is ironic since she says that the assigned questions are the best way to practice for the exams. She makes exams unnecessarily hard as if the course isn't already content heavy. Overall, avoid this prof at all costs, and if you dont, goodluck because you'll need it.
