Comment:
The notes that she provided in the class did not help me with my homework I would have to go to youtube. She does a quiz every two section. Also be careful how you write your final answer on the test because if you do not write the way she wants it she will take off a lot of points, trust me she's a tough grader.

I had to spend a lot of time reading the book and watching videos because her lectures were a waste of time. Most of my class failed the tests :(

math always requires a lot of homework, but this was a very easy class. Her lectures do not always make sense, but youtube has everything you need for extra help. She is an easy grader and gives as many points as she can and allows you to have a cheat sheet. She makes a lot of cheesy jokes, but she's a pretty good professor for math.

She has a very monotone voice. Lectures the WHOLE class time. She goes over examples from the book that you were supposed to read before showing up to class. Hw is online so you can use your book. Hates when people leave early because it interrupts her and the class.

This is a great refresher course if you havent taken math in a while. This class helped me greatly in calculus later. This Professor is very nice and she helps break everything down if you ask questions.

I really liked Professor Malouf. She was very funny and caring. She knew this statistics class was very difficult & did her best to help us understand the subject. Sometimes her explanations were confusing but I think it's because she super smart in math & would lose us. She was always available to help, gave us points for the work we did right.

She's the worst professor ever. She's my first C in college. statistics is not a hard subject but she makes the simplest thing so hard and confusing. People stopped showing up to class cause it was such a waste. She's the worst ever. Don't take her. Tests aren't hard but are weird.

Make sure statistics really boring just goes off the book no point on going to lecture because the examples she gives in class arent as clear as in the book. Homework is easy to do just use the book.

Listen to lectures, follow along with her examples, take notes, ask questions, and do the homework. Not hard. Teaches using examples from book. Quizzes/test not hard, but I enjoy math. She is funny but not many people like her sense of humor. If you enjoy math, you will enjoy her cheesy jokes. Nice, caring, and really knows her stuff! GREAT!

She is one of the worst professors at CSUB for math. She manages to make even the easiest subject insufferable. But her tests and quizzes are pretty easy. She is so boring the she put me to sleep 80% of the time.

You don't show up to class, you will not pass the class. She has a monotone voice which tends to turn heads in the room to their phones. She teaches right out of the book with little examples. She talks through out the class about some people, and how they shouldn't be in her class because they are not ready. Puts people down and discourages them.

Loved Dr. Malouf. She's quirky & fun. Must attend, gives pop quizzes that weigh heavily on final grade. All explanations & examples are straight from book. Always willing to help & explain methods. Tests: fairly straightforward, notecard allowed, no trick problems. Doesn't collect hw, gives quizzes/tests back in timely manner. NO CELL PHONES OUT!!

I would categorize her as a person who is passionate about what she does. She's an okay teacher in my opinion . She doesn't give credit for hw but it is suggested to pass the course. She tends throw in her lectures with lots of tangents, little pause here going off topic there then goes back to the subject. Quizzes are given at random. Tests are ok

She is a professor who actually wants you to learn. In her lectures she will explain every problem step by step and will answer a few questions from the homework. When I went to her office to ask for help she did multiple problems with me explaining every step until I understood it. She is someone I would definitely take again.

No no no no. I have never failed a class so badly. Its her grading. She takes off points for every little thing. Honestly I wish she would collect homework so our homework scores could balance out our horrible test scores. Also the day before the test she does a lecture for whats going to be on the next next exam instead of a review day. Goodluck!

She is totally nice and sometimes funny. She tries to save you money also. The best part about her class, she doesnt collect homework. If your someone like me who has already took calculus in highschool, this class should be an easy refresher. I barely did homework, since I knew most of the stuff. Trig is hard in general, not teachers fault.

she doesn't collect hw, but her quizzes are pretty random. she uses an older edition txtbook for this class. she supplies the class with these books if she has plenty. tough grader. i wouldn't retake her again. in my opinion, this class is mainly independent study and u have to show up cause u dont know when she will give quizzes.

She is the only math professor I will take for any math class. She is clear and concise. Of course you don't need Power Point for math classes as all the work in done on the board. She will help and explain the work very clear. Homework is optional, but absolutely necessary to pass the class. Best Math professor by far!!

I would never again take any class that is offered by Malouf. She is one of the most confusing lectures and her discussions often times went of on a tangent. She doesn't organize her notes, never any power points, and she seemed to have always made everything up as she went. She also gets irritated when people ask questions. Sorry, but never again.

She's an easy grader if you can actually follow along. I have yet to have a class with her that she didn't make multiple mistakes and had to correct herself or have a student correct her.
