  Olga is an amazing instructor -- she is knowledgeable, helpful, and genuinely cares about how her students do in her classes. Olga knows statistics and understands how to teach the subject (and works with students during her office hours, before her 8:00am class (!) and at other set appointment times...). So she is able to understand how each student learns differently and works with them to learn/understand the material. She wants her students to do well and to truly grasp the concepts. The grade breakdown is great -- 2 midterms, a final, quizzes, homework, and a project -- so students are not heading into this course with a huge amount of pressure to do well on the three exams. If you put in the time and effort, you can do well in this course... even if you are not a stats person (as I am not...).
