DO all of the questions in the problem sets....
The fact that she knows her stuff inside and out make it her downfall as well. The first couple of classes were good (I was understanding), but then the last couple prior to dropping (it) were completely outta this world! I was totally lost and couldn't recover (failed a quiz), so I ended up dropping it.
I liked Orla. I only have 2 comments that are somewhat negative: 1)please stay on the lecture material, I am not paying to hear what you think of the political stance on the world or Ryerson, this is NOT a poli-sci class, 2) please be a bit more clear when explaining HOW to imput data into the stats calculator, as I got lost, otherwise->great prof!
The fact remains that she is at times to unclear and often skips steps important information when teaching. Moreover on a mid term i lost 10% due to semantics on her part of putting "not neccesary" and her word "not meaning full" even though the rest was correct. Lastly, she keeps uses different variables for the same statistical value.
Unfortunately she can not teach statistics very well, maybe she 'l do better in a biz class. When she calculates she looses herself in confusion, embarrassing! Watch your test scripts when she returns it, she makes MANY mistakes and her excuse was I was tired towards the end and most have marked your paper amongst the last!!
Hey guys I just want to say that Orla is a great teacher and she wants her students to succeed but her way of explaining things is really odd. But i ended up with a B+ in this course after I got 50% on the midterm. Orla really helps in boosting your marks up
Awesome prof, she is fun and shows interest in the class and the material that she teaches. She seems like she genuinely wants everyone to succeed, and provides extra tools to help
Orla's a bit confusing, but she does provide clarity if you need it. This course is not hard. I got an A-. Do the assigned homework and look up the solutins and you should do well. Only go to class if you need clarity with the material. If you haven't read the chapter b4 hand don't bother going to class cause she will confuse you!
This teacher is useless - talks about things that are not related to the course such as how much she loves Ireland, how she hasn't watched TV since 1981..how much she loves Guinness Beer! She absolutely has no interest in teaching the course.. always looks bored and makes so many mistakes, you'd lose count. I'd rather kill myself then take Orla
