Comment:

I never really got a whole lot out of class except the example problems helped on homework and all her exams/quizzes were straight from the homework if not copied directly from the homework. So if you ever happen to have a class with her since she is now retired DO YOUR HOMEWORK!

Comment:

Excellent teacher. Does well with 3-D objects, which is the bulk of this class. Talked to her one-on-one once and she wasn't very helpful, but in class she is always very nice, helpful, and clear in her teaching.

Comment:

explains things very thoroughly and helps out with homework questions. easy to understand. take her for calc 3. i hear she specializes in 3-D stuff and that's basically what this class is anyway. very straight forward about what will be on exams. makes you do h/w but it helps a lot. quizzes were straight forward too.

Comment:

Tends to explain things in a pretty complicated manner, but at least she's easy to listen to (not boring or droning.) Sit close; her handwriting ain't the best. All in all, not great, but you can do worse.

She makes mistakes often, even on example problems she worked out before class. Explanations are usually wordy, but much better than several of my other professors...

I went to her office hours for extra help and she was more than willing to give it and approachable. I really liked her a lot, even though I had to put a lot of extra time in outside of class.

Comment:

I already had a good understanding of calc before I took her class, so I have a sort of biased opinion about the class. I thought she did alright, homework assignments weren't too difficult, and meaningful.

Im sure shes a nice lady, but she struggles as a teacher. Shes unclear, doesnt explain well and generally is poor at reaching the students. I would recomend against taking any of her classes.

Comment:

she seems to know what she's doing most of the time, but no one else does! I've never seen more confused students. She should stay on the topic, Calc and stop going on and on about pollution in the great lakes or anything else.
