I had Ms. Birbeck in 8th grade during distance learning. Compared to my 7th grade teacher, she actually teaches us things, provides help, and is quite clear for the most part. She also guides us into taking notes and responds to emails right away. However, Ms. Birbeck is very tough when grading homework and she has some strict rules that are important to remember. Also, her exams are straightforward yet provide many opportunities to make careless errors. Make sure you review your notes the night before and pay attention during her class.
