Although at times, you will find her frustrating. She is a very great professor who only wants to push you to succeed. She cares about her students passing. She took this 020 course very seriously and helped students everyday. Would recommend.

Comment:

I had to retake MATH270 this semester and Dr. Schaeffer did a far better job at explaining things than the previous instructor. The instructor last semester was without a doubt a mathematical wizard, but he just couldn't explain the material at a level Dr. Schaeffer does; a level at which everyone can understand, given they work at it.

I took the online 260, and beware now! It does not matter how much time or effort, you will still average a D. This class is VERY time consuming, so if you plan on having a life or working, be prepared. She will assign at least 3 chapters per week. If you have questions you're better off googling than asking her. I would not recommend her ever!

She is pretty helpful, but you have to ask her! When asked she is very willing to help and will work with you outside of the class room. She is a fast talker so if your not understanding something repeat it again to make her explain more. She is very nice, just hard to understand at times if your not great in math.

AMAZING professor. I love math, but will tell you that I really struggled with Calc II, but she was extremely helpful and she made class fun. She is willing to work with you if you don't understand something. Don't be afraid to ask for help

Horrible professor! If you like to ask questions then definitely do not take her. She tells students that the questions they ask are dumb. So obviously she isn't very helpful,only take her if you are able to teach yourself.

AWFUL prof. the tests are impossible! SO much busy work and online homework that takes hours and it's due randomly on days you don't even have class. It's basically an online class where you just have to teach yourself. Most likely going to drop the class. AVOID HER!

Comment:

I am so frustrated by this professor. Schaefer is not helpful to me, and it feels like during class she is not thorough by any means. She isn't detailed enough, and doesn't really break anything down. She just shows a bunch of examples, which I guess help, but I still need to go to a tutor and struggle with homework for hours. DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS

Comment:

When you pay attention in class and really try to learn the material than its an okay class. I didn't even by the book, everything is on hawkes. She gives you a lot of busy work that she believes is helpful but it really waste time. She is a lot better than the other math teachers I have taken. She is picky but a good teacher

Comment:

She is the most awful professor I've ever had. I'm bad at math to begin with and really need the class for my major and she made it impossible to pass. I did everything I could, even got a tutor at home and she still wouldn't give me the help I needed.. She made a level 100 math class seem like a level 400 class. I would never take her again.

Terrible teacher. took this class over winter break, and she made this so impossible to finish. She did not like how I showed my work on tests. I got all A's on my hawks tests and she took off 20 points because i didnt show enough work for her. She accused me of cheating even though I had a proctor in the same room while taking.

Comment:

Hawkes is terrible. I feel like if I do one more algebra problem i'll turn into one. But she is really helpful as long as you ask questions. Class requires a lot of studying as you are learning a lot of material in a short amount of time for the tests. Overall, if you study and do you homework you will be fine.

Elements of Stats online can be very hard. Procrastination will make you fail. Do all your homework and make sure to understand the concepts because the questions on the test will be totally different from what you learned but the "concept" will be the same. If you have a hard time with Math, stay away from this online class!!!

Do not take her!! She is not helpful. I had all of my Hawkes homework done way ahead of the deadline, but still struggled in her class. The work it takes to complete the Hawkes homework and quizzes, does not coincide with what she wants. I studied and worked very hard, but Hawkes teaches the problems differently than her. Awful professor.

If you have sanity and good grades, stop, turn back, and forget this teacher exists. She will not help you whatsoever, instead she gets out of teaching my linking you to videos but when it comes to her exams, if you don't write the work down her way she fails you. She is impossible to work with and will blame it all on you.

She is not helpful at all. She has no idea how to explain math to people who have a hard time comprehending it and she has no time for those who do not understand.

Comment:

Just took the second test. On first test 95% of class scored between 35% and 65%. Needless to say i am dropping this class now. Homework is easy, Got answers correct on quiz, still got a 70%. Tests are IMPOSSIBLE. Avoid at all costs. She is friendly but her tests are harder than advanced physics.
