haha you're kidding.
The Finnish word pilkunnussija, which translates literally to “comma fucker,” is someone who risks his social wellbeing to annoyingly and persistently point out punctuation errors.

Hah she does seem to polarise people's opinions; personally i found her excellent. Always easy to follow, very clear and concise, responded timely (and thoroughly) to my emailed questions. Although she has the habit of taking longer than needed to explain basic things, which can be frustrating (eg taking 5 minutes to run through to computational aspect of a simple but long drawn-out integral, when the time would be better spent on reinforcing the actual main concepts of the question ie change of coordinates).

I actually agree with almost all of what you said. She's undoubtedly a competent lecturer, but the thing that I didn't like was her irritating voice and her lack of a personality. She seems constantly bored by her subject of expertise.
