Comment:

Mallenby is probably one of the better math professors at Creighton. She is a very caring professor and wants you to succeed. She takes notes very very quickly but will stop to help if you need it. Homework is due every class, there's a pop quiz every class and tests are about every other week. Go to class and you should be fine.

Comment:

Best choice for 201 at Creighton. Math department in my opinion at Creighton sucks, but she is your easiest choice for this class by far. VERY TEST HEAVY (7-8 tests). Participation mandatory with a pop quiz after each class (not impossible). I personally was not a fan of her, but others were. Will get an A if you study and do homework.

Comment:

Easiest and best choice for 201. If you excelled in math in high school, this should be a piece of cake. Homework daily, but it's not too bad. Quizzes are all open-class so they're easy to get 100% on. Each chapter has a test but if you go to class, do the homework, and look at the review problems she gives, they aren't very difficult.

Mallenby truly cares about her students. she has been there for me through a lot of things that happened during the semester that caused me to drop her class for an incomplete and told me that she is available to me at any time for any help in math, although she wasn't my professor. if you ask for help, she is happy to help you.

Comment:

Dr. Mallenby is a fantastic teacher. She is super organized, sticks to the syllabus, and she grades very fairly. She moves through content quickly, so attending class and paying attention is essential. Points are not weighted, so exam scores count the same amount as homework in determining your final grade.

GREAT PROFESSOR! If you really want to learn you should take this class. She keeps by the syllabus. If you are bad at math then consider a tutor because she doesn't wait for anyone. Overall she is the best teacher you can have for math.

Homework daily, and you need to go to class, because the class is all based off the lectures. Great teacher, goes fast, but covers all the topics in an easy-to-understand matter.

I failed every calc test I took in high school but I got high A's on all of Mallenby's tests, and if I could do it, so can you. You just need to go to class because there's no book and she gives quizzes everyday. They're easy quizzes though because they're on what she just taught and you can talk to classmates.

Comment:

If you don't go to class you will have no idea what's going on because there is no textbook. Also quizzes at the end of every class over the material you just learned that add up to be a substantial portion of your grade. Overall a pretty easy class and good teacher. Would recommend.

I would not have passed math without Mallenby. She cares so much for her students and is willing to help all the time. You have homework every day but she gives you the answers. She also makes study guides for the tests that help so much. DO THEM. As long as you are willing to put in a lot of easy work, you WILL pass.

Comment:

Dr. Mallenby is one of the better math professors at Creighton. There are quizzes every class period, but she lets you use your notes. The tests aren't too bad as long as you've been paying attention. If you've taken calc before this class is incredibly easy, but if not you may struggle more. She's very nice and will help you if you ask.

Comment:

Worst professor I've had in college. Got an "A" in the class and have already taken calculus in high school, but she even confused me at times while she was teaching. Quiz everyday and you cannot make them up for any reason. Averaged like 99% on tests and got a 92 in the class for missing 3 or 4 days. Very unreasonable and passive aggressive.

Comment:

Mallenby really makes it easy to understand Calculus, bar none. It really filled the gaps up for me from when I struggled in Calc in high school. Highly recommend. She does go a little fast, and be ready for pop quizzes (that aren't hard at all), but other than that, she's amazing.

Comment:

BEST Calculus teacher ever! Mallenby made it easy to understand and was so sweet to everyone. There's homework every class but is worth a lot of points and is graded off completion, it's a great cushion for tests. Quizzes almost every class but you are allowed to use your notes and other people in class. Would highly recommend her!

Comment:

Dr. Mallenby is a great lady. If you get to know her she tells a lot of really cool stories, but a lot of people don't get to know her it seems like because she's pretty quiet. The class moves pretty quick so as long as you go and take notes you should be fine. Also, make sure you do well on quizzes and homework, they're the majority the grade.

Dr. Mallenby is amazing. No required textbook - all the assignments are uploaded online to print out - and she explains the material clearly. If you do and understand the study guide you will do well on the test. You have to do the homework and show up to class, as she has quizzes every class, but it's a very easy and engaging class.

Comment:

I had the misfortune of taking Dr. Koffi for calculus last semester, and the difference between that awful, sad excuse for a math teacher and Dr. Mallenby is like night and day. Dr. Mallenby is probably one of the nicest people I've ever met! Not only is she a good teacher, but she is very understanding and knows all of her students.

I would definitely take Mallenby again if I could! She was super clear in her lectures and her tests were super easy if you did the practice tests and the homework. Don't just sit in class without taking notes. She loves what she does and genuinely cares about her students. Loved having her as a professor and I definitely recommend her!
