Comment:

Tried to tell me to retake college algebra after the first test - my algebra was perfect, my calculus was terrible because I didn't learn anything from her! Miserable woman to deal with. Take Matlab course, not this. It didn't help that my TA hardly spoke English. If you aren't already a calc wiz, DON'T TAKE HER CLASS!!

Comment:

This professor would be worthless to a seasoned calculus wiz; but this was my first ever calc class. Needless to say, it was the hardest, most damaging to my academic standing, and most regretful course I have ever taken. Despite the fact that the course is titled "Calc 1", she assumes that everyone is familiar with the concepts. She should retire.

Comment:

Horrible Teacher. I learned from reading the book, the examples she does in class are all wrong. the only reason I went to class for the last three weeks was to fill out ICES forms. Then we didn't even get them because her tenure makes her invulnerable to their results. She may be a good person but she hates teaching, don't take her class.

Comment:

She's always wrong with her examples, I suggest you not to take notes, cuz most of time, the answers are not right, therefore, u gotta erase and re-write everything. Her writings are hard to follow. Even if you get right answers, but your way of solving the problem is not the way she wants u to do, NO CREDIT. just don't take her class.

She's not a very good teacher. Her exams are a lot harder than the material she goes over in class.

Comment:

If you really want to know the meaning of TRUE PAIN, take Calc I with this "attempt of a teacher". Honestly, I don´t understand how she hasn´t been fired yet. She doesn´t explain, hardest exams ever, and not helpful at all!

Comment:

HORRIBLE!!!! Final was impossible!! can't understand her messy cursive, lectures are ungodly boring, he's an unfair grader, and she screws up every problem she does so you can't follow her. I had a year of calc before this class and it was rough. If you can do anything else, DO NOT TAKE CALC WITH HER!!!!!!!!!

The lectures are really bad and don't make sense. The tests are also a lot harder than the homework or the practice tests.

Don't write in pen, you will need to erase several times per lecture.

Comment:

Awww!! I can't stand this women, i have her currently and I am switching over to another math teacher. She talks to herself basically when she tries to explain the material to the class and covers the entire chalkboard with her body when she writes so i can never see what shes talking about! I leave her lectures in frustration. Don't take her class

I don't know if she's always so breathless because she's excited about teaching math, or simply from pacing around so goddamn much.
