Awful
Professor O'Brien is terrible, she only puts incomplete slides online so if you want to stand a chance in class you have to go to her lectures. In class, she'll spend twenty minutes talking about a weird disorder or how different cultures can have different opinions on things (not tested) but then she will go though ten slides in a minute.

Poor
Professor O'Brien will post her lecture slides and records her lectures which is very helpful. Aside from that, all of the material from quizzes and exams were from the lecture slides. However, she did not answer any questions or even provided clarification on topics or concepts. She will just refer you back to her lectures slides, which were not self explanatory and is just a list of points.

Awesome
Dr. O'Brien is GREAT! She posts videos that fully elaborated about material and slew of online resources. She is considerate and nurturing towards her students. There are a few surprise lecture assignments throughout the semester. I highly recommend taking him! One of the best teachers I have ever had!
