She is a nice lady and is very lenient with due dates for assignments and make-ups for quizzes. However, she often gets confused with problems and her teaching style is weak at times. She also has a slight accent, but that was never a significant problem for me. Overall, the class is not too bad, but exams are ~80% of your grade and one bad test can sink your grade, so beware if math is not your strongest subject.

She is nice and will extend due dates for everyone even if only one person emails, however she frequently confuses information. She also skips steps when solving problems and assumes the class knows things we were never taught. You have to pay for Webassign and there is one due every class. She will also hand out worksheets that we have to turn in. She is a lenient grader and offers exam corrections, however, you basically have to teach yourself the concepts. That being said, don't skip the lectures as it is helpful to see what kinds of problems are on the tests. If you can't get someone else you'll live.

Nice lady but cannot teach at a college level. It is an extremely vague teaching style and is not effective for the classroom. Had to teach myself all of the work she provided.

DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR, she is so buns and cannot teach for her life, she might be a nice lady but she justs yaps and writes on a chalkboard I had to teach myself everything throughout the entire year. 75% of my class dropped out the course before it even ended because of this prof. If she is the last option just dont even take the class at that point and wait till next semester if you want to save you mental health.

Please do not take this professor... she is a sweetheart and her exams are a little easier than a non-fc MATH141 class but for all things holy please do not take her class. Her lectures are pointless, as she makes mistakes and is incredibly uninformative. She doesn't know how to "teach", but she does know how to write on the chalkboard and ramble, which are two very different things. For your mental health's sake, and to not flare up your anxiety every class, do not take this class. And if you are FC just drop her section.

She is very nice, but she is NOT a good teacher. She barely knows what she is doing and often messes up problems. She often teaches using concepts and variables and not examples for a lot of the class so it's just nonsense. Most people are on their phone or zoning out all class. Not engaging at all and she isn't good at explaning things.

She's a nice person, but she teaching is way too unfocused and confusing. She doesn't really explain anything or tell you important information, she just writes on the board and does problems like you should know what to do already. Zoning out during class and just reading the textbook will save you a lot of confusion.

She seems nice, but her teaching style is extremely vague and difficult to understand. She doesn't explain how to solve problems and sometimes skips over important information. The textbook is a better teacher than she is.

Do not take her. Her teaching style is hard to understand sometimes. Also, she is not very understanding if you are sick and miss a quiz. All she does if stuff from the textbook that you can do on your own.

Very hard teaching style not a lot of flexibility when it comes to each students learning style. Problem is read from textbook and then done on board. Not a lot of explanation of terms or vocab.
