worst teacher I've ever had. She made online learning absolution hell. I will be reporting her to the school and try to get her fired. she ruined my enjoyment of Econ. Worst teacher ever literally ever had. If you have to take a class with her take it somewhere else. SHE IS THE WORST EVER

She just rambles it makes everything as difficult to understand as possible. She is all over the place and makes everything more complicated and confusing. She gives a ton of HW on bridges and on cengage(which is $120 for the semester) for no good reason.

Gives a lot of work and quizzes but because they are so short, it is really easy to get a bad grade. She will assemble videos to teach for her, sometimes using class time to use the videos, and expect you to understand everything within the first time watching the video. Be cautious with homework and the quizzes because too many kills your grade.

I took her Macro class. She's not great at explaining anything. She just writes stuff on the board and expects you to write it down. Very anti technology and does not like to see laptops or phones. Very boring and dry class especially if you aren't an Econ major

So much homework. If you don't pay attention in class you will fail. However, it is hard to pay attention when her lectures are long and boring. A little rude and gives a quiz every class. I failed so many of them. I was actually happy I got a B- since it was such a hard class.

Very very fast paced class and doesn't stop to ask if anyone has questions. Emailed her for help and she sent me in 20 different directions that weren't her to get help. Gives a lot of homework and its a very lecture heavy class. Her handwriting is messy and definitely made the class more stressful than needed. Do not recommend.

I am an econ major and have taken Kula for Intro to macro and intermediate macro so far. I'm doing the Fed Challenge Independent Study with her and professor Panday. Great professor who knows her stuff and knows how to explain it too. She lets you know exactly what's do and when. Go to the lectures and study and you'll get an A. Will take again.

She is good at explaining the material but the class itself is hard and the tests were hard as well. The homework was annoying because it was all on bridges and they were hard but you couldn't ask questions because it was timed. Lecture was very dry but she's a decent woman.

Best economics professor at RWU. Very clear on what she expects. Show up to class, do the roughly 4 hw assignments a semester, and study and you will do great.

I had Professor Kula for both micro and macro economics. Overall she's a good professor. The tests are all multiple choice. The class is very lecture heavy so be prepared to take lots of notes and she tends to talk really fast. Her handwriting can be very messy. She does not accept any late work, even if u were absent the class before.

She is definitely interested in economics but is a tough professor to follow. Must read the book and study all semester long if you wish to receive a decent grade. I would recommend her, but prepare to study and work hard.

She is great teacher. I had her last semester and enjoyed every class. she is really clear about the concepts and explains more if you have questions. also all the exams are multiple choice which makes them much less intimidating. you definitely still need to study though and take good notes

She is a horrible teacher! She speaks very fast and is always sarcastic! I went to her office one time for extra help and she basically yelled at me. Do all the hw she assigns if you want to do well in her class. Good luck if you ever have to have her.

Great Professor, took her for both Micro and Macro, I have learned so much. Probably one of the most straightforward professors at RWU. Would take her again. Not to much homework,you have to study for tests. No pop-up quizzes. You would have to do absolutely nothing if you got under a B. Easy A class, only if you put the effort in.

By far the most knowledgeable teacher of my freshman year. She makes every class interesting and fun to be in. The only grades are 2 tests, participation, and problem sets online. I highly recommend taking her for economics. BEST teacher I've had thus far. I've learned so much from her it's unbelieveable!

Shes a great teacher, keeps the class light and fun. All you need is a 51 to pass the calss so its not bad in that department either. Her test are all multiple choice, and are directly related to the homework problems.
