She really cares about what she is teaching but makes things hard for no reason.

She is an awful teacher. All she does is lecture the entire time during class. Her quizzes are so specific and they are around 20 questions but you only have 30 minutes and you run out of time for every single quiz. Our whole class told her that we ran out of time on our quiz and she laughed. It takes forever for the quizzes to be graded.

I liked Kristina, but she never gave homework or many assignment, so it was hard to know if you were on the right track and were actually learning the materials. She also does a lot of group work, which was super annoying. She also assigns a lot of readings from the textbook (which I never opened) and different articles and stories online.

Lectures are horrible, and grades are made up mainly of 2 exams

She makes things unnecessarily difficult. All of the grading is done by her TA, who takes multiple weeks to get even participation grades in. Most of your grade will come from the quizzes and the professor will put the most random questions on the quizzes. SO MUCH BUSY WORK. Don't recommend.

I've taken two of Kristina's classes and they are extremely difficult with loaded lectures and very specific exams. She will mention something once and brief in lecture and then there are multiple questions about it on the exams. One of the most frustrating things about her is that she takes forever to put things in the gradebook.

Kristina is not a good professor. She cares a lot about the topic but she shut down discussions in the class and was very condescending to most questions that were asked. Then, although I got a 95% on everything else in the class, the way the tests are weighted, I still ended up with a C as more than 50% of the grade is 2 poorly written tests.

This class was unnecessarily difficult. Very few things were graded and if they were they were usually only 5 points, so it did not help your grade. The tests are extremely difficult, so make sure to study hard. She never responded to any emails students sent her either.

Tests are very detail-oriented, to an arbitrary degree. There's no curve, and the two tests make up 65% of your grade in the course. Building your own study guide as you go and taking notes on every lecture and reading assigned is a must. Got the top score in my class on both the midterm and final and squeaked out an A- in the class.
