Overall, Dr. Waggoner is a great professor. She is really clear and straightforward with what she wants a student to learn for her exams! Great lectures even though super early in the morning! Quizzes were a bit confusing in her class, so just be mindful of submission time! Overall, great professor! Do the homework and you can ace it!

She post exam 3 on the final. Pretty much that means that the final is worth 40% of your grade. Had this in calc 1&2 with her. She left series and sequences for the last week of class.... hardest part of calc that takes time to learn and she left it for the last mine. She never replies to emails, so don't even try

Dr. Waggoner is a great professor. I enjoy the fact that she gives definitions for everything. it makes learning the topics easier. She gives you a lot of homework, however it is so helpful that it's enough to study from. At some points, the tests were easier due to the practice homework problems.

I took her for Calculus 1,2&3 and i highly recommend taking her classes. She is concise and doesn't trick you. She lets you know exactly what she wants from you on homework and tests. You have to keep up with homework, but the tests are easy if you do the hw.She isn't the easiest math teacher in the world, but you really do learn in her class.

She is really smart. You have to do work everyday but if you find it confusing she will help you outside of class. She is in her office during her stated hours and more.

Took her for Calculus 1&2. Calculus is tough. She is tough, but she is fair in her grading. If you start out struggling and do better, she tends to grade you on progress. DO NOT MISS CLASS. MISSING CLASS WILL PUT YOU BEHIND. Assigns HW to be turned in b4 test. DO NOT WAIT TO DO ALL HW ON LAST DAY. If you do hw as assigned, you'll make an A.

Excellent teacher. Knows the material well, and is more that happy to help you. She is very tough, and assigns a lot of homework and quizzes. DO NOT procrastinate! If you do your homework, then her tests are easy. She has a really dry sense of humor, and I've heard she's a really nice person to talk to outside of class, especially about fashion :P

Calculus II is hard, so don't expect it to be a blow off like Calc I. Dr. Waggoner is a good teacher, must attend every class. If you miss a class, you'll be behind and hard to catch up, she goes pretty quickly. Gives a lot of hw dont fall behind! Tests are ok, must do homework, not the night before!

She is an extremely helpful professor and you would being doing to find a better one, because there aren't many. She knows her stuff and can explain it to you if you just ask. The people that seem to hate her were probably the ones who skipped and didn't ask for help. And she isn't impersonable she just has a very dry sense of humor.

Dr. Waggoner is a wonderful prof, however she's is extremely moody. Dr. Jekyl & Mr. Hyde kinda moody. She really knows mathematics and how to teach it. She's always concise on what she expects from her students. If you work hard, you will be rewarded...no free ride, but not out to fail you. Highly recommended. Best dressed prof at UST...mos def.

Dr. Waggoner is the best Math teacher at this school. She assigns a lot of homework but she is the only teacher that explains exactly what she wants you to know for the exams/HW in great detail. She may seem hard to talk to but that is her only problem, behind her cold outer shell is a very nice lady. I highly reccomend her

This lprof. will intimidate you at first...but she is willing to explain, gives examples....but pay close attention. If you do your hw and study hard...and pay very ...very close attention you will do good...If you havent taken CAL before....this class is good for you..just dont be intimidated and try to understand and do her review tests.

The class is hard enough before the bi*** shows how impersonable she is. You cannot ask her a question without being made to feel completely insecure about everything when she answers you. She will belittle you and you will fail!!
