Leanne was really amazing. The negative comments are from ED2 because ED2 can be very stressful but don't worry, when you get to ED3, you'd love her. SHE IS REALLY REALLY AMAZINGGGG

Seems like an amazing person, but that totally changes when you receive your grades. Marks as if this is a 4th-year course. I love the topics learned but absolutely hate the type of assignments and breadth you are expected to know.

I had Leanne in winter studio in ED2 and for Ecology in 2023. She was an excellent instructor and cared about her students and her clear passion for design. She always made time for us and she was incredibly kind and a pleasure. If I was in landscape instead of architecture I would absolutely be delighted to be a student of hers again.

Gives the last assignment that's worth 25% late and then is already due in 2 days.

Studio was much of a relief compared to last year. I really enjoyed crits and appreciated the feedback she and Dale gave to me. Communication really is key with Leanne, she genuinely will help you! Had a fun fun time too :)

Having Leanne as a studio prof has to be one of the best things to receive in Landscape Architecture. She comes with such great knowledge and genuinely wants you to enjoy the things you work on. She's extremely encouraging and wants you to take care of yourself before projects!!

If I could be in another class of hers, I would!

Leanne seems like a very nice individual and a great studio prof, however the manner in which she teaches Ecology and Design forces students to accommodate whatever assignments and insane workload she decides without fair discussion. The class is extremely stressful, feedback is very delayed, and all work is graded hard.

Content is overall interesting however, this gets overshadowed by the amount of work that you will be given. 2 week assignments work 2.5%. When the class let her know of how stressed we were, we were told to get better time management.

Shredded some studio projects and expects us to work on Ecology as much as Studio

Grades subjectively on the ability to "cultivate critical thought and deepen understanding of key course content" through forum posts, without providing any meaningful grade on accompanying worksheets that would demonstrate/prove the learning objective of the forum. Oh, and it's 25% of the final grade.

not compensating, tough marker, doesn't understand that we have other classes too, overall not an understanding person.
