Comment:

Yikes. Every unit, I thought, "Hey, we used to do this in high school and I was good at it! This'll be easier than the last unit," but they way Mrs. K taught these simple things (even factoring) made it so much more difficult than it needed to be. Homework could be very difficult at times. I just feel like I didn't learn anything from this course.

Comment:

Professor Krichiver was a pretty good professor. She is consistently willing to offer help, and she welcomes questions. its easy to keep up in class. she was very quick to grade and usually handed work back the next class period, but she took a while to post them online. shes always ready to help, and is very understanding and will work with you

Comment:

All over the place with notes. Rushed through some of the sections that were the most confusing. Shows simple problems in class and the next class is littered with problems from people not understanding the homework. Test are of problems she thinks are "easy".

Comment:

Professor Krichiver is very helpful. I've never been good at math, but she made it easy for me. She is very good at explaining things and tries to explain why you do something instead of just telling you to do it. She's a great teacher.

Extremely caring and nice. Great teacher and cares so much about everybody. Very understanding and just the ideal grandma type person. Very nice, and pretty easy! Take her for a fun, nice, and relatively easy time!

Comment:

She is a caring person. If you have trouble w/math I recommend her. She is very good at explaining things. However if you are good at math or a quick learner I would avoid her. She OVEREXPLAINS very basic concepts. Might spend 5 minutes explaining an intro to algebra concept to a calculus 2 class. Great teacher, but sometimes hard to listen to.

Comment:

Semester started out fine, she was very thorough and helpful, but went way downhill towards the end of the semester. Her being disorganized took its toll on many people (ie losing quizzes and putting them in as zeros). Class layout is horrendous (taking quizzes on stuff 3 weeks after you learn it). Would not reccomend taking Tech Math with her.

Donna will do everything she can to help you understand the subject. She is very clear when she works out the problems on the board. Don't be afraid of calculus, it's not scary! Be sure to have your algebra skills down and you won't have any problems.

I am really happy I took her classes (231&232). Because of her, I am planning to get a major in stats. She has really inspired me. She made me love math. Thank you Donna!!

Comment:

She is a good teacher. She always explains every single step, and where the formulas come from, which is helpful. However, she goes to fast in my opinion. If you are learning this stuff for the first time, I think is going to be hard to understand it.

Another great semester with this teacher. Quizes come straight from the homework, which is not manditory. Is always willing to help after class. See loves what she does and is very good at teaching. Would and will take for aslong as possible.

Comment:

Donna means well but has high anxiety issues. Her strength is her knowledge, her weakness staying on point, focused on the issue at hand. She has a bad habit of jumping from one seemingly weak analogy to another in attempts to seek validation of her understanding of the problem, not necessarily to present the issue multiple ways in laymans terms

Great teacher. She gives homework but you dont have to do it. It is just for practice. If you need help she is always there. And want to make sure everyone is on board. I will be taking her for all of the other math classes.

Comment:

RUN!!! Do NOT take college algebra from this lady! She is extremely disorganized and you have to do a ton of independent work in order to succeed. The tests have also plenty of things she NEVER went over in class. She is also very awkward and made me uncomfortable several times.

Comment:

Donna in no way shape or form is biased against anyone. She grades tests one question at a time without even knowing whose test she is grading, I've seen her. How then could she be biased? She is so helpful and always willing to go above and beyond with her students. I learned a lot from her in Calc I. I would definitely take her again!

Great teacher, makes sure you know everything - and very well. Not a ridiculous amount of quizzes or tests and homework is not required, but I highly recommend doing it. She's a great teacher - a little eccentric, but a great teacher.
