Comment:

She does not allow makeup's for any of her quizzes does not matter the circumstances. She might drop the grade for you if there is a reasonable explanation. You definitely need to understand the subject beforehand or else you will be lost.

Comment:

I took Choi for Calc 1 Fall 2018 and let me tell you, it the worst decision EVER. She is very combative when you try and ask for help and always resorts to the phrase "you should know this". Goes way too fast!!!! We didn't have one passing average exam/quiz. If you do take her, make sure to do the HW and know how to do each problem on it by heart.

Comment:

I taught myself Calculus last semester because she CAN'T teach. I spent hours each week just trying to keep up with the material. Her problem is that she zooms through lectures, does not explain material in an understandable manner, and shames students if they ask a "stupid question". Save yourself hours of unnecessary work and stress: AVOID her.

Comment:

This professor developes an attitude when asked questions and is generraly unaprochable. Students ignore her during lecture because they end up more confused than they were originally. Most of the time students end up teaching themselves the material.

Comment:

Professor Choi is not a very good teacher. Her accent makes it a bit hard to understand what she is saying and she moves very fast. When you ask a question she might Not even answer it . Also, she is a very tough grader. For example, if the answer is 4 and you put 3.98 she will mak it wrong because you did not round properly.

Comment:

Brief reasons why her class is difficult. 1. she goes through the material too fast 2. She skips steps in her examples 3. She's often argumentative when you ask questions 4. She does not know how to explain the material simply Only take her class if you are willing to teach yourself, through tutoring or Youtube.

she is the absolute worst. She doesn't teach clearly, her tests are short but very very very difficult and worth a lot. She's jus the worst. Avoid her at all costs. Thank me later.

Comment:

I've never struggled in math up until this point. She did not present the material in a clear way and was unapproachable, making it hard to ask questions. Her teaching strategy is extremely ineffective and my grade suffered tremendously because of it. Avoid taking her class if you want to get a good grade.

Don't expect her to be that helpful. She doesn't give many good examples, so I had to basically teach myself this semester. Avoid her at all costs!

Don't take her class. She is very argumentative and nasty to students who ask her questions about the material. She has a heavy accent that bores everyone. Doesn't explain anything well at all. I'm surprised she even has a teaching job lolol

She is very argumentative and stuck in her ways. Don't bother asking questions because she will just give you an attitude. If you are looking to actually learn, try to take someone else if possible.

Comment:

I basically taught myself for this entire course. The professor makes no effort to answer any questions and has no idea how to teach the material. There are quizzes every week and the only way to pass them is if you do the homework. If you are not good at precalculus already, you are going to have a very hard time passing this class.

Comment:

I do not learn from the lectures; I teach myself from the online homework, which saves my grade. She sits behind a computer and talks; gives very few examples. And when you ask a question she gets annoyed and asks why you don't know the answer even though it's her fault. Only good thing: she gives make up quizzes online.

Comment:

Notes are WAY too lengthy. They need to be condensed. Her handwriting (on the board) is lousy. I misread many items even while sitting up front. Her homework assignments were extremely awkward and confusing. There were some homework questions in which the entire class was at a loss. Ask for extra help and you won't get much.

she really knew what she was talking about, just not how to teach the material. went to her for extra help and lets just say never again. On the bright side, you were allowed to retake your quizzes for full credit- that was the only good thing about this class

Comment:

This class was extremely easy. She gives a two question quiz every week and online homework. You can also make up the quiz online if you want a higher grade and drops the two lowest grades. She isn't the best professor but if you're looking for an easy A its here.

I absolutely love this class. Makes precalculus a million times easier. Easy two question quizzes at the beginning of every week which she allows you to retake. Essentially, it's really hard to fail this class. Homework is on web assign so its easy to get done. No more than one hour of homework per week. DEFINITELY TAKE HER!!!

Course material is difficult to teach. Professor will go over any question if you ask her to before the work is due. She has good humor just not as friendly sometimes. Cheat sheet for every exam. and Book mandatory. Decent curve. I would take her again.
