Took her last Spring (2014) and it was one of the easier classes I have taken at UCLA. I lot of work is done during class with clickers, demonstrations, and whatnot. The nature of the material is pretty easy and basic (from high school physics classes), so I didn't have to do too much learning to begin with, which made the class easier.

For people who have never taken physics before, there is a lot of emphasis on conceptual understanding before applying any equations or math to it. She is also very generous with partial credit. Usually you could get partial credit by drawing diagrams and explaining what is happening in the problem conceptually.

Took this course with Dr. Winslow for 6A. It was her first time teaching it so she wasn't that great at explaining certain things and she would often have to ask the co-professor to help explain something. Also, the powerpoint slides that she had didn't really have many examples so you kind of have to learn a good amount of it on your own. Honestly though I don't think she was bad. Towards the beginning of the quarter she didn't really know what she was talking about. However, by the middle and end of the quarter she got the hang of doing it. She is such an awesome person, super nice and sweet. She even asks that you go see her in office hours at least once just so she can get to know you. She has a lot of demonstrations during the class to show us what exactly we are learning. And at the end of the quarter she told us if we ever need any letters of recommendation she would write them for us, which is awesome.

The two midterms weren't hard at all. The homework, however, was a joke. SO difficult to do, but it only counts towards replacing a bad midterm grade. Seriously though, just google the question and you will find the way to do the work on Yahoo Answers. She offers a lot of extra credit in the class. I ended up getting a B+ because I didn't study enough for the final with all of the rotational things. Also, the final wasn't bad at all.

I would definitely recommend taking her class.
