The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
Many As appear, but tough paper deductions and perfectionism mean an A still costs careful rewriting and detail work.
Online reviews sound easier; in-person papers draw most tough-grader complaints.
Is the course easy?
Content is hands-on and followable, but weekly lesson plans, papers, and reading keep challenge mid-range.
Both formats describe doable content; stress comes more from grading pickiness than concepts.
Is attendance flexible?
Most reviews mark attendance mandatory and tags stress participation and not skipping.
Online and in-person both often list attendance as mandatory.
Is this professor recommended?
About 70% would take again; fans cite inspiration while critics cite stress from grading and disorganization.
Online sample is almost uniformly positive; in-person opinions split more.

Course format
Classroom format
High confidence · Best fit for Effort For Reward
In person she is beloved for passion and inspiration but frequently dinged for disorganization and tough paper grading.
Main concern
Picky deductions on commas, formatting, and late minutes plus unclear due-date communication.
What students said
“Her grading is completely unreasonable... purposefully finds ANY reason to deduct points off of an assignment.”
“Jeanette is the sweetest professor ever, she is so passionate about what she does.”
Remote format
Medium confidence · Best fit for Effort For Reward
Online reviews are strongly positive, praising kindness, resources, and learning from lesson-plan heavy work.
Main concern
Lesson plans can be tough on formatting details.
What students said
“Most of the homework is making lesson plans, but by the end of the semester you know what you are doing in a good way!”
“my favorite teacher ever! so kind and caring and you learn so much from any of her classes.”
Exam style
Assessment is mostly papers and projects; limited exam detail suggests standard, not proctored-exam focused.
Assessment risk
Standard
58/100

In person, one review notes only an easy midterm she previews, with weekly assignments driving the grade.
“Only an easy midterm that she tells you what's specifically on it and no other tests.”
“She is the toughest grader. She will find anything to mark you down for.”
Online reviews emphasize lesson plans, resources, and feedback rather than proctored exams.
“She is a little tough when it comes to our lesson plans but it's for our own good.”
“Most of the homework is making lesson plans, but by the end of the semester you know what you are doing in a good way!”
