Comment:
Where do I begin with Claire? First off, she does not teach this class. You teach yourself. Its all online and you watch videos of her drawing on the smart board. If you Dont pass a quiz or test you have to take it over and over until you are weeks behind. She is not helpful and scheduling meetings with her is pointless. Not a fan!!!!!!!!!!!!

Comment:
She is a very picky grader. If you have a dumb question she will make you feel dumb for asking it, so avoid that. Otherwise if you come into her class with a good foundation in math you will do fine. She is a good teacher overall, but calculus isn't my cup of tea.

Comment:
Explains concepts well, if you don't print the notes you won't be able to keep up with lecture, tests and quizzes are hard, you get last 15 min of class for a quiz, lots of homework, HARDEST GRADER I HAVE EVER HAD. SO PICKY IT'S RIDICULOUS. You could have the correct answer but if your work is not 100% perfect, she will take off a chunk of points.

The tests she makes are extremely hard and also pretty long. She gives you the hardest questions she can and grades each one really hard. If you need help definitely go to her office because that can be helpful, but be ready to be on a constant math grind the whole semester.

Comment:
Clarice fails to prepare students for the tests. Felt like she was cramming information in our face just so she could stick it on the test. Tests are time consuming and don't allow students to properly work through problems, but rather have to think quickly, which is not conducive to the calculus ideas.

Definitely take Lio for calc. She teaches fine but she gives too many questions on tests and uses the hardest ones she can. It's a total time suck too so don't expect to be able to take difficult classes at the same time.

All math at USD is done on your own now, but when Wagner was around, she was always willing to help. She downtalks to you like you're 3 years old, but overall she is a decent math teacher. Do your work and you'll be fine. I failed the bejeezus out of my final, and she still passed me. Nice lady.

The only negative thing I would have to say about Claire is how she delivered the final. It was by far the most difficult examination I have ever had in my three years of college. Other than that, do the homework everyday and you should get at least a B.

She is the coolest math teacher ever! She seriously has a strong desire to teach, and she will try her hardest to help you. She will make you earn your grade, but she makes class a lot of fun. She has a great sense of humor.

This apple-loving lady taught Math Concepts for Elementary Teachers and I was so lost. Even when getting the extra help she confused the crap out of me. Besides, useless class. Didn't need any of it for teaching. The good ol' U of SD got their money anyway. :-) Go Yotes!!

This is one of my favorite classes, Claire is so easy to follow and makes it interesting to be there everyday. I might even take Calculus 2.
