I would recommend taking and reviewing your notes, she puts everything in her lessons that you can copy down into compact notes for you to study. She also posts the notes on Annotate after the class in case you miss them. Also, she doesn't grade homework, but she will call on some people to do the homework in Annotate during class. Overall, this is a great and unforgettable class.

This is a great class and a wonderful teacher. Absolutely phenomenal experience with Mrs. Couto. She is just the best at teaching, very funny and sarcastic. Note-taking is easy in her class as she posts all of the notes, the homework is really easy and not graded, and anybody can make a great student-teacher bond with her. Would definitely recommend for anybody.
