Comment:
Her class is horrible! She should have retired years ago and by now she does nothing but talk in circles. Never talks attendance, asking questions requires you to yell just so she can hear you and a lot of times she'll just start talking over you. She also thinks the world of China and won't stop talking about it! Worse class ever.

Comment:
Temple has one of the worst Economics departments in the history of higher education. Rima is a horrible teacher and what she talks about has nothing to do with the work she assigns. She doesn't take attendance which is the only good part about the class.

She def needs to retire. You have no idea what to learn, read, remember, etc She rambles on the entire lecture and you learn nothing. Her test are impossible, you do not know when the test are. AND SHE IS A FULL OUT COMMUNIST!!. I am not joking. Do not take this class, it is not a requirement take something else.

Temple needs to force her to retire. Test are very unfair, says she gives curce but doesn't. I got a decent grade cause I taught myself from the text book, going to class is pointless, she doesn't speak more than 5 words a minutes and has to sit because gets too tired. AVOID HER IF POSSIBLE.

Comment:
REALLY BORING!! It seems as if she's stuck in the Great Depression and that's all she talks about. Hardly teaches revelant things because she goes on random tangents all the time. Most of my learning was from reading the book and going over the study guide. I had her for Macro Econ and I'd say get a diff prof if you can.

Nana rocked my world. She didn't care if you came or not. She didn't care when you handed in homework. And, she's adorable.

Wow. The lady knows her stuff...but there comes a point in life when it's just time to RETIRE! I couldn't even stay in the class, I had to drop it. She mumbles about nothing and goes on on tangents. The test are so hard compared to what you discuss in class and to top it all of, she wrote the book...which is just as boring as she is!

Heed the advice of others and stay away. Lectures are extremely boring and irrelevant. If you don't read the book meticulously chapter for chapter, tests are very difficult. If you go to class you'll learn one thing - how to study the backs of your eyelids.

First of all, she messes up exams. You will answer the right way, and she will mark it as wrong. Then, you and the rest of the class have to spend an hour telling her about 8 problems that she marked wrong but are actually right. I got a 79 on her exam once, after I made her fix some, I got a 92! Her answers to questions are 20 minutes long! SLOWWW

She doen't really teach in class. Her exams are horrible. She told us that she didn't want to cover Adam Smith and that she wouldn't test us on him. Then we had our midterm and over half of the test was on ADAM SMITH! She also tested us on chapters that we won't cover until next month. Unless you want a stomach ulcer, don't take her class.

I had Rima Twice at TU and that was a good 3 years ago. Cant BELIEVE her old a** is still around! she;s the only teacher to make me cry, BUT I got a B in both classes after I whined in her office at least 10 times each class. She DOES know her Econ BUT she SUCKS as a teacher. Tests are NOTHING like the lectures. Good teacher for smart a** kissers

A waste of time. You won't learn anything and you probably will not have any idea of what your grade is until the end of the semester when it is posted on owlnet. She wrote the book for the class, which is unclear and consists of random run on sentences. Which is no surprise since that is how she teaches. Should have retired years ago!

I passed 51 with a breeze and than it happened Dr. Rima. The odds were against me the first day; was warned to drop her, didn't never dropped a class. I got the lowest mark ever in my college life-have to repeat. Bad teaching, no help, no extra credit, goes off course, totally looses you. Very disappointed in Temple and I know they know she's bad

Comment:
Mrs. Rima seems like a nice person and has accomplishmented a lot, but she needs to retire NOW. She's too old. She speaks too slow, is always winded, and her voice is far too cracky. Her lectures are terrible. Her tests always have material that she never went over. Everybody but one person failed the last exam. STEER CLEAR.
