Key questions
Is this an easy A?
All reported grades are A-range, and online students mention extra credit plus full-credit late work despite some homework effort.
Online evidence shows grade support through extra credit and late work, while the single in-person review says homework is tougher but supported.
Is the course easy?
Students say the class is not hard and learn a lot, but music theory practice, reading, and homework keep it from being effortless.
Online reviews range from boring and reading-heavy to not hard, while the in-person review describes skill practice as fun but somewhat tough.
Is attendance flexible?
Reviews do not clearly state whether attendance is optional, recommended, or mandatory.
Neither online nor in-person reviews clearly establish an attendance policy.
Is this professor recommended?
Most students recommend her for being caring and helpful, though one online student would avoid her online class.
In-person evidence is strongly positive, while online evidence is positive overall but includes a clear online-only warning.
