Reviews of professor Makayla Palmer

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
I don't recommend taking this class unless it's a requirement. In her weekly online quizzes, majority of the contents are not discussed in class and are almost impossible to find. Expect to spend hours going ballistic over the questions that are extremely difficult for no reason. If you care about your mental health, just don't take this class.

Even if you give this course your all, Makayla Palmer (now professor Lavender) will make it impossible to get though this course without wanted to rip your hair out multiple times. It is no surprise a majority of her class does not show up. Most lectures there were only about 5 students, says a lot about the professor.

Great professor. Homework is easy to pass since there are unlimited tries and end up being worth a lot. 3 exams including final, first two were online and open note. She gives good study guides and exam questions plus curves the exams. Powerpoints are very good and will help out during homework and exam. Pay attention and you'll pass.

She was nice and available for help but her teaching style and my learning style didnt go together. If you understand material better by taking notes it is difficult to do in her class. She seems to jump around to the topic, relating topics, and off topic ideas. Her lectures and the book are very different and tests are pretty difficult.

This will not be easy or super hard class. Study and review your notes, you will pass mostly. She will curve the tests if people are failing too much. For me as an English second language student, she is okay, She is a very intellectual person, please know what you talking about before speaking. Overall personality, she is very Nice and cool.

Professor Palmer read off the power-points directly. It made showing up for lecture difficult. She drops the lowest exam score, however her exam questions are custom made and not department standard.

Health econ is a tough subject & some of the HW questions are very difficult. This isn't an easy A course, but Professor Lavender is nice and she'll try her best to explain the material. Show up to class, study, do all your assignments, and you should be able to pass. Weekly HW + 2 midterms + a group project at the very end that got cancelled.

She's a really good professor, but her style of teaching doesn't work in an online format. For a 300 level course there was way too much work, and the amount of concepts she dumps on you is immense. At the very least, she's a lenient grader on the projects as long as you actively participate, but I wouldn't take her again online. TLDR too much work
