Comment:
This class was one of the toughest classes that I have ever taken at Washington College. Partly because Dr. Ford didn't always explain it the way that worked for me, but also because genetics is a super tough course. She provides a lot of work to do outside of class that in reality the work helped a ton, but I hated doing it before class.

Comment:
She was awesome teacher in plant bio. You could tell she really enjoyed teaching the class and was very helpful. The labs were interesting, but her test were a little difficult because she would put everything you learned in class on there including sometimes questions about extra readings and activities we did. But overall she was a really great

Labs were interesting. Dr. Ford was very helpful although she can be difficult to follow sometimes. If you can think for yourself you will probably do well in her classes.

Comment:
She is extremely unclear teaching and asking questions. Her style of making someone from each table answer a question in order is obnoxious and doesn't do anything but discourage students from answering questions they understand and force them to answer others.

I didn't learn anything in the class. The only things I learned I found out myself or in the writing center.

tough exams and hard teaching style. However, she is a very good person at heart and pushes you to your limit. She doesnt sugar coat anything and shows you how its like in the real world.

Extremely accusatory if you have a problem in her class, she is offensive and will try to intimidate you if you disagree with her. Has a hot temper, does not know how to control it either.

It's hard material for some, which gives many a bad impression of her. She's quite good at what she does.

She expects a lot of her students, but in grading is concerned mostly with effort. Yeah, she can be a little quirky and unclear at times, but she really knows what she is talking about. She will do anything to help students learn and succeed.

She doesn't push you to work hard so that you'll like her, she does it to force you to learn an immense amount in a semester. She's also always willing to spend her time helping students. The department would be lacking without her.

She is hard at first, and you really want to hate her, but after you get out of her class, you see how much fun she was and how smart she is. She just out of the blue decided to take us to the Philadelphia zoo one day. We rode elephants!

Extemely smart! Her tests are hard but that's how you learn. Reminds me of Ms. Frizzle from the Magic School Bus. She's a little weird somtimes, but her intentions are good.

Horribly confusing, rude to students, and not helpful. She held study sessions before exams, but then would yell at you for asking questions regarding things she went over in class.
