Comment:

She is passionate and funny! I really enjoyed her class. Pay attention to her lectures, the homework is 30x harder than the tests, so study the previous years' exams. She does get loud when lecturing, but don't be afraid! She's just passionate about her subject. She is a really great person with some really cute shoes. 10/10

Great lady! As long as you pay attention in class and don't text, you will understand most of the differential equations subject material.

She's great. Really funny and nice. Sometimes her accent makes things unclear but you get used to it and the slight language differences can be funny. This class isn't easy but if you study well, you got this.

Comment:

She is incredibly unclear when she's teaching and she doesn't use Blackboard. Get ready to teach yourself because going to class makes no sense. The nice thing is that old tests are posted online and the format doesn't change very much between semesters.

I thought she was amazing. Her English is very good, although she has an accent you shouldn't have any trouble at all. The tests are just like you would expect. She lets you know how things will work, and which things you really need to study.

Lectures were well thought out and presented in a fashion that made learning the material easy. The "clicker quizzes" are easy if you do your homework. Good professor.

Great teacher for an otherwise tough class. Hard to understand at first, but you can get used to it. She really cares about her students. She should be teaching more classes other than this and DiffEQ!

Comment:

Best Calc II teacher you can get. Seriously, just look at her spreadsheets compared to the other lecturers. She always has at least twice as many A's. Class is not easy, but she does the best she can to tell you exactly what you need to know for the tests.
