Had to drop the class because I knew I wasn't going to pass it with her teaching style. Nice lady, but when I asked for help she didn't make sense when explaining. More on the difficult scale, don't take If your not 100% confident with your algebra skills.

Currently taking math 115 from her and I'm trying to switch professors! Don't take her class unless you already know the material and are ready to do homework about something you barely learned in class!

Comment:

She is awful. The way she grades hard like if you forget the negative when your working the problem but your answer is correct she will still mark you down. She makes her own class notes and reviews. She teaches and stares blankly at the class. Avoid at all cost! Would not recommend.

Horrible. She doesn't teach all she does is write on the board looking from the book, something we can do at home. If you're trying to learn Algebra, she is not the one for you.

Comment:

I had not been in any math class for 18 years! I could not follow along with the teacher! I was at the MRC 2-5 hours m-th. this was an accelerated class during the summer. I had to take it. She is a very, very nice person, but if you struggle with math DO NOT take her class! study guides and HW guides are jumbled. She is very knowledgeable

A nice woman, but an incomprehensibly dull and absurd class. Not only were we put into assigned seats, but there were 'class participation' points. She doesn't explain anything, she just does a few problems and stares blankly at the class. Avoid at all costs.

Comment:

Dose not make any sense when teaching. I love math and am majoring in a math based degree, she made me dread math. She has no office hours either. Gives a TON of homework. Treats us like children(assigned seats which she enforces.) I have had college algebra in HS, did very well, yet flunked her class. I knew students in Calc in HS that did bad.

She is a nice lady but unless you already know algebra don't take her. She will go over things if you need her to but she mainly just hands out notes and you do the work on your own. There aren't many chances to earn points so score well on your tests.

I love this teacher! She is funny and will walk you through the problems if you don't understand. I am taking her again next semester. Her class notes are very helpful. Homework is not mandatory but will help you learn the material and can earn you extra credit.

Comment:

She was the worst math teacher I have ever had. She gave us assigined seats and still couldn't learn my name. She was quiet and boring and always chewing gum so I could never understand what she said. She never explained anything, just worked examples on the board with no explination and moved on. She grades ridiculously hard, she once took 2 point

Comment:

A good teacher. She's no nonsense, right to business, and when it comes to math, that's all I could ever want or expect. If you're one of those people who asks "why do we need to know this" then maybe she isn't for you. She gives a lot of stuff to do, yes, but part of learning math is repetition - duh. Anyone who complains is just lazy.
