Fall 2023 - Andrea is a new professor here at UCLA, welcome 👏! She's a nice professor and cares about her students for sure. However, her teaching could be improved a little more; I am not even sure what exactly distinguishes a good professor and an excellent professor, but I'd say the "excellent" professors have more engaging lectures and explain things more clearly, and Andrea could work on that. It's only her first quarter though, and I'm sure she'll get better. I heard that her office hours are really helpful, but I haven't checked those out. Would recommend her 8/10.

Summer 2024 - professor burton is genuinely one of the nicest professors within the LS series. her negative reviews are unwarranted. I feel like she helps a lot she is a great professor, its just the LS series has a very standardized series and there really isn't much she can do to change that. Like all the LS series classes, the PEQs help, but don't meet the same level of intensity for the exams, but theyre good practice. her office hours were extremely helpful as well, so go to those. she seriously explains things in a good concise manner and she's very enthusiastic about teaching her students. shes pretty nice too so if you have any doubts definitely reach out to her about concerns. as for the ls7B class in general, its easier than ls7a (god knows 7A was NOT for the weak aka me), but 7B is still a bit complex. you can easily get lost, so make sure to go to those PSS and office hours. try your absolute hardest to get all the points possible do NOT slack off, those points come in handy. and DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THAT SYLLABUS QUIZ. classes are recorded but you need to be there for clicker points (participation). I was during the summer session but still counts. overall burton was a good professor though I definitely suggest taking her. my biggest advice for those tests, is practice all the PEQs.
