Reviews of professor Lisa Furr

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I have never experienced a teacher that seemed so out of touch. She always seemed annoyed when I asked for help which is just a terrible thing to feel like as a student. She never responded to emails, however, if the stars aligned and she did reply it was about 2 weeks later. I completely relied on the TA to assist me with the class.

Shes truly the worst professor I have had at my time at this school.She is so rude and constantly picking on all her students. Along with this, she makes us take tests on zoom and distracts you the whole time by chatting to you in the message chat of zoom which makes us not finish tests on time. DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS I AM TELLING YOU!

The most outside of class work I have ever had to do for a course, changed final exam criteria 12 hrs before, unclear grading criteria, and extremely unorganized. Class is mainly regurgitating large chunks of information for tests. Prof was generally extremely unorganized.

Lisa is so sweet, cares a lot, and has a good attitude. Teaches deaf culture really well. Her class organization is an absolute nightmare though. She constantly changes due dates, does not communicate, has her TA's do over half her job, and is extremely vague with grading criteria. Very homework and participation heavy (like any language class).

I will not lie this class had alot of work, but you are leaning a language. If you dont want to put in the work dont take ASL classes. Lisa cares so much about her students and I learned more about Deaf culture than any other ASL classes i've taken. Dont read into the negative reviews too much, if you show up and do the work you will be just fine.

Most unorganized class I have ever taken! Class content was interesting but get ready for TONS of last minute changes! Professor is unwilling to accommodate for students with due dates even though textbooks were not ordered to the bookstore and sold out on Amazon!

If you practice independently you'll get the most out of Furr's course and their humor. Teaches not just ASL as a language, but also dives into the culture.

Lisa's 'bad' reputation precedes her. She;s a joke. Worse than a joke. She hardly teaches, i learn the material mostly from her TAs.

Lisa is a very strict teacher, she will take away points for the littlest things. She requires you full attention, that means you re not allowed to converse with people around you. She also put in my grades incorrectly and when I  asked her to double check she refused the change the grades. She doesn't lecture well and you have to reply on the TA's
