Comment:

Professor Clark/Cassil is the best math instructor I have ever had. I have always struggled with math. She somehow made algebra not only bearable but sometimes actually enjoyable. She shows real life applications of the material and is more than happy to explain concepts in multiple ways to ensure clarity. Just do the work and go to class!

I loved this class. She made the material easy to understand and gave students ample time to complete online hw. Honestly, as long as you do the hw and show up to class you'll have an A

She's fun and down to earth. In class Assignments usually do at end of class so don't skip classes or else you won't get the assignment grade. Test are made by department head so they are hard. She's really clear and helps out a lot. The material itself is hard but she explains really well.

Comment:

Mrs Clark (Now Cassil) was a great teacher IMO. She is always willing to help if you visit her in office hours, or via email. I really enjoyed this class. She was easy going, laid back, and joked with the class. I would definitely recommend her.

Comment:

She can be awkward and belittling at times. You have better luck getting help from the TA. She is also a very picky grader. My class was quiet so she didn't know how to interact with her students at all, making it very less engaging. I would not recommend.

Helpful, but she is very picky on tests, quizzes, and hw. I once got -10 for not having a staple on my homework. Other than that, she is a great professor.

Comment:

This class was the first and last time I truly enjoyed mathematics. Ms. Clark showed rather than told, working out problems with us and keeping us constantly active in the learning process. As someone with an attention disorder, I seriously don't think I've come across a teacher this effective for me before or since. Highly, highly recommend.

Easy class. She speaks clearly and gets the point across. Normal amount of homework. All materials such as textbook, workbook will be used. She is very specific about units being used though, so watch out for that.

Awesome. Took her Math 141 class over a 4 week summer session. Excellent at teaching the materials. Quizzes helped prepare for the tests. Willing to work with you, as long as you are willing to put forth the effort. Highly recommended.

Best math teacher ever! You will actually enjoy going to class and actually learn what's going on. Work book is a must, but textbook, you can probably share with someone. Lots of grades which helps out if you do poorly on some tests.Attendance is important. She's a nice young lady and enjoys what she does. Highly recommended.

She's by far one of the best math teachers I ever had. She explains thigs is very clear. The class is easy if you come to class and take notes. She's very good at explaining and she breaks things down for you to understand if you neeed it. Also the way she says 50 is really funny. Highly recommend her!!

Awesome teacher, very easy on the eyes, has a quirky sweet sense of humor and conveys the material well. If you get on her good side early and kiss a lil bit of rear, the rest of the year is a breeze.

Comment:

Prof. Clark is very intelligent in her field. However, she likes to look very important and she cares less for international students. She is not very cooperative and clear in homework assignments and she is very strict on attendance. She likes to point out student's problems and she does not allow a second chance EASILY. From personal experience.

As long as you go to class and make sure you ask questions follow her suggestions you will be okay. She cares about her students passing so if you need help she doesn't get frustrated and she is very understanding.

This is an easy class if you come to class, take notes, and pay attention. It's easy to get lost if you miss too many classes. I love how she breaks everything apart so you can understand and the fact she walks around the room to look at your progress. She's probably the best professor for Math.

She's a wonderful and helpful teacher. She goes to class early to help students with their homework or other things. The things I like her the best is she doesn't mind staying late to wait for you to finish the test. If you don't know how to do it, she will give you a hint. I never feel sleepy in her class, although I used to in others. I love her.
