CDDLV 109
She is super hard and for a development teacher , she doesn't follow her own rule that some students haven't learn like she has. We all learn differently. She always off task and behind schedule. Very rushed class.
CLDDV 103
Shes alright. dont take this class with her if you cannot take notes and listen at the same time or if you cant handle fast paced environments. she often falls behind but sometimes she will fit like 10 slides into 3 minutes. her class isnt bad if you READ. YOU MUST READ THE TEXT. her final wasnt great though.

Great instructor! A little scattered at times, but easy to get along with and understand. Her class is full of assignments that allow you to have fun and learn at the same time. She is a wealth of information.

Debbie has a teaching style that I was not acustomed to but I found that as long as I did the reading and assignments, along with regulary attending class, that passing the class was a breeze. Advice: make sure to go to class and stay for the whole period. Also keep cell phones put away, she has zero tolerance and will ask you to leave. Good luck

This teacher is very hard. The tests are very tricky and get progressively harder. She grades essays based upon spelling/punctuation, not about quality. Her final consisted of her trying to lecture about 3 chapters in 2 hours, and then giving us the test. She is always behind in her lectures.

She was very forgetful and talked a lot about her project Kenya. She is very passionate in her job and an excellent teacher. I learned so much from her.
Chldv103
I've taken her 103 and 107 classes. In 103 she was very clear on what she wanted and went over it NUMEROUS times. In 107 she was much less clear. she'll give great help of you ask, her quizzes are tricky read the questions CAREFULLY. she's very open about her beliefs, and relates everything to a personal story which helped me understand the subject
CLDDV103
I would not take this teacher again. She doesn't stick to the syllabus. I found her sneaky and her tests get progressively harder. Beware of the final.. it was ridiculous! She loves to talk about how wrong everyone else is in rearing children.
CHLD103
This class isn't that hard, but she makes it kind of tricky. She grades really unfair on essays. And she is SUPER annoying. She talks in overly exagerated baby talk more than half the time. She always has to be right too.
clldv107
She is a unique. You will get a good grounding in child development. I think she has a problem staying on subject in her lectures. I really want to know what is happening in usa classes more than Kenya. I found myself falling asleep in her night classes. Other than that, good luck

I have had Debbie for a few classes now and have had no problems. If you are a serious CLDDV student, you should have no problems passing her classes. You do earn your grade. Go to class, READ, do your homework, and study and you will pass. If pay attention to her stories, they go with what she is teaching. FYI: turn your phone off in class!
CLDDV103
She is awesome. A lot of students tried to scared me before taking this class. Wow, not even close to what they told me. If you are a serious student, this class will be worth it and easy. This teacher knows her stuff and research. I was frustrated with students asking personal questions, teacher managed those nicely.
cd103
She is very rude, she is pretty much two faced says she cares about every ones opinions but really only cares about her own, her lectures are way too long and boring!!!!
Clddv126E
Please ... Whatever you do, DO NOT take this class with Debbie...if you do, then you will realize why....!!!
child103
WoRST TEACHER EVER! She know what she is teaching very well, but will not answer questions, is always behind schedual and does not listen to anyone tht doesnt gree with her. I have an autist brother so i know alot about special ed but i would never let her ner children! She is so closed minded and that is not what a teacher should be. Never take he
CLDDV103
Debbie is great! You definitely have to work hard and her expectations are high, but she's a great teacher. I really appreciated her passion for children and for Kenya (which she routinely visits). Do your reading & pay attention and you'll do fine. Her lectures were extremely interesting!
clddv103
Debbie is a fantastic teacher! She is very knowlegable and has a ton of experience in this field. As a student you have to do your part and read your book and study. I got an A in clddv 103 and clddv 107 with Debbie. If you're looking for an esay A then I wouldn't recommend her. But if you're wanting to really learn then she is awesome!
CD103
I dont know what everyone is talking about. Debbie is a great tracher. ya, she's strict, but come on guys... we are in college!!!! and if youre a child development major, your gonna want a teacher who has high expectations...thats the only way youre going to understand this intense field of study. HIghly recommend her!!!
Chil103
short quizzes every week. not alot of HW other than test and quizes. She treats us like children, which is annoying, but she knows her information! recommend if you are majoring in CD
clddvcd10
Ridiculous expectations. This teacher preaches that children should be treated with respect(which I agree) however shows no respect for her students. Her lectures are very long and boring. She will not let you leave on time if she is still lecturing and if you try to leave on time she will mark you absent by making class sign a sheet after u leave.
