Comment:

They changed the curriculum in the Math Department so her teaching is slightly different than it was in past semesters but her tests are still open note and she teaches using powerpoints (which you can use on the test). Make sure you do the homework, pick good project partners, and take advantage of the extra credit. You just might need it!

Comment:

She is a great teacher. The class is super easy, she gives extra credit. She gives short quizzes at the end of class but if you need help she will come over and give you the answers. She does not like phone use at all. She doesn't cancel class often but she ends class early most of the time.

Comment:

I hate math, but I'm considering taking the extra mathscience you have to take with her just as long as she's teaching. Super easy class, she's funny and she will help you on the quizzes and tests. You have homework every night and a quiz every class but it's not bad. Tests, quizzes, exam is open notesquizzestests. She's great.

TAKE HER CLASS. This is the easiest class. Everything is open notes! Attendance is important as there is a quiz everyday but it is easy and open note. She counts homework only on if you complete it. Tons of extra credit opportunities. Nicest teacher and always willing to help. Will help you during a test or quiz if you ask. TAKE HER CLASS!

She is the FUNNIEST teacher ever. For the tests, if you go up to her desk an ask her about the question you are stuck on, she will basically GIVE you the answer. She's the BEST. And she assign homework every class, BUT she doesn't check it. She just asks you if you did it and will give you a complete if you say yes.

Comment:

Easiest class I've ever taken. I felt like I was back in middle school. Assignments are soooo easy and she gives very little homework. She almost always brings food for students to class. If you have an A by the end of the semester you don't have to take the final. And all of the quizzes throughout the semester are open note. Take this class!

Comment:

Very nice lady, but horrible teacher. Doesn't really teach, just assumes you know how to do the work. Gives notes, but they are just problems, so they are worthless. I would only take her class if you are okay with teaching yourself everything using the textbook which is also, HORRIBLE.

She's a good teacher but her notes are not as clear to the students as she think they are.class attendance is mandatory b/c if you miss a class then you're pretty much screwed for the test.She's one of the few teachers that allow students to use their notes and ask her questions,and often ends up giving you the answer to the problem.

SHE'S OK BUT SORT OF CONFUSING. WHEN I ASK A QUESTION SHE GIVES A ROUND ABOUT ANSWER, BUT WHEN A WHITE CLASSMATE ASKS THE SAME QUESTION SHE GIVES A CLEAR CONCISE ANSWER. THE TEXT BOOK PROVIDES VERY LITTLE HELP

If you hate math, take her. She knows we will never use any of anything we learn ever again, and she's funny about it. You can use notes on all tests, and she really gives you many chances to get an A. Very helpful, too (pretty much gives you answers, but still explains it for you).

Lots of extra credit, goes over homework at the beginning of each class, and you don't have to take the final if you get an A in the class.
