very hard teacher, stupid and pointless book that goes along with nothing

Tests are difficult. If you have a hard time in math, don't take her.

I think she is easy and covers material thoroughly.

Offers extra credit!

Teaches stuff thoroughly, very nice, great teacher

do your homework.........................RIGHT

GREAT CLASS!!!!

hard tests, teaches by examples, but she's really helpful and very nice.

easy class, great teacher! if u didn't understand this class, find a math tutor!

I think she's really good. Haven't done good in math until now.

She's a great person, but her teaching techniques are awful

Very nice teacher. Tests can be tricky-word problems. too much H.W. portfolios a

She really taught this class and made sure her lessons were understood.

the people who are complaining about her tests need a tutor

You've gotta guess when your homework is due.

Amy is very easy and understandable. I would definately recommend her!

tests unexpectedly difficult, friendly and approachable, test Qs worth too much

It wasn't hard at all if you payed attention, the tests weren't that bad either.

Will do well if you put the time into it, Great Job Amy!

Amy, is more than willing to help you during her office hours, tests are tough b

Excellent prof. she wants you to do good. Hard class, but she helps a ton!

great prof who cares and always avail for help. 5 credit calc ..expect to work

Not a bad prof by any means, but I'd keep looking!

I love Amy!! She's very helpful and explains things clearly.

She is a very nice and helpful woman, her tests were hard. She gives pop quiz's

good prof.....you will actually learn and enjoy it

Class moves quick...don't be left in the dust. Not a favorite, but tries to help

Very nice woman, helpful. Class moves quickley.

excellent teacher, very helpful, I'd recommend, hard tests, you'll learn alot!!!

Very helpful. Explained concepts in a way that made them easy to understand. Just show work on tests and you will do well.

she is always willing to answer questions, explains material thouroughly, lots of extra credit opportunities, i would recommend her

amy is nice & expects a lot. i didn't do very well in the class, but i can only blame myself. i liked her optimization problems involving goat frolick spaces and Pinky LaRue. if you have a sense of humor and a sadistic nature, take her class.

Mrs. Stone is a HARD teacher. She actually expects us to show up to class and do work. HOW DARE SHE!!!! Other than that, she seems to be nice and interested in us learning.

She not only helped me out with her class, but with the MTH 122 class I was taking when I recieved no help from that prof. She doesn't make it easy on you but I have found that this is the most fun I've had in a math class and I hate math.

Amy is probably the coolest professor I have had so far. She is funny, outgoing, and kind. She also doesn't expect us to understand things right away, and takes the time to try and simplify things instead of just ploughing through.

tests are ungodly hard, last test we had to know over a dozen formulas for logarithms, exponentials and derivitives. the reason they make formulas on paper is so you DONT have to memorize them, what a joke. Although she is a hottie!

Don't take this class first thing in the morning... other than that yes her test are hard, but she always answers your questions, there are worse professors to have, so if you are pretty sure of your math skills she's an alright choice.

Very good prof. Explains everything, tough tests and some difficult projects but nice lady overall. Had fun in the class.

Excellent teacher. Her lectures are clear, and she is willing to help you out whenever you want. Her tests are hard, but if you study, and DO THE HOMEWORK, its not bad.

She is a good teacher. She is willing to help you better understand calculas if you are willing to ask. She knows her stuff, but the class itself is quite difficult. To understand the class you need to ask questions.

Good teacher, made a math class fun for me (a rare event). Projects were easy, tests were hard, assignments were optional and non-graded. Take notes and study.

Always be prepared for this class...do your homework, she doesn't collect it but it helps. She really knows calculus, but she doesn't really care that her students know it. Prof. Stone is a cool lady, but the only way to learn is if you go to her office hours and sit with her one on one.

she the best around, nothings gunna ever keep her down!

She is a very nice person but her tests and group activities are not so good. Her tests are harder than the assignments and examples that we go over in class and her group activities are positive because she applies the concepts we learn in class to real life situations but useless on exams.

if math is a difficult subject for you,i would not reccomend her. it is hard to become motivated b/c she does not require homework to be handed in which would help your grade w/more pts&force you to learn,which non-math people need.if you're good in math,i'm sure you'l find her to be a fine prof.

She is a very nice teacher, but it still pretty difficult. She does not go in depth on major points, which makes it tough to learn. However, she is very willing to help, so take advantage of her office hours!

Very nice teacher. It's a shame I suck at math, or I might have enjoyed the class more. But she is there for you if you need her and she is very clear about her assignments and tests. Do your homework and study and you can pass this class with a fine grade.

Ok, I had math 201 last sem. and failed horribly with Hodge, so I retook it with Stone. She explains everything really well and questions are always welcomed. The only way you don't pass her class is to not ask her questions. Don't blame her if you can't handle Calculus. It's hard****.

Be prepared to teach yourself - she doesn't lecture, just answers questions you have about homework. Gives easy problems for homework, but puts hardest questions possible on tests. Very hard grader, won't even give partial credit. Big on showing work, which for her means writing an essay describing every little step.

She is really helpful if you go and talk to her outside of class. (That is the only way i could to do the portfolio). Calc is hard and i think she teaches it well.

she made very easy topics hard-it was a very easy class but she gives you a lot of work

She teaches well, but I still failed her test!

She is a very good teacher. Explains things very well, and takes the time to answer everyones questions. Also is very prepared for class and knows the material.

This class was really easy!! Math comes real easy to me so that could be why it was so easy. She helps everyone, no matter what their questions are.

If you want a good calc prof, take Amy. She understands calculus thoroughly. She's very fair with grading. She'll bend over backwards to meet with you outside of class. She gives you plenty of extra credit opportunities.

very easy class, she knows what she is talking about, always willing to help. Don't skip this class, she give some pop-quizzes and you get points for easy in class activities-you'll do fine.

She is am excellent teacher! I recommend her to anyone that has to take Mth 110. she is bery helpful and willing to meet with you. Classes are not that hard and she gives you alot of activities to help you. They are fun and it make the time fly by even faster! TAKE HER!!!

She was a great prof! Her style of teaching is very easy to understand! She doesnt take attendance, but you can't make up stuff you miss unless you talk to her ahead of time. Homework is optional but i suggest you do it if you want to do well! Her final exam is hard- be prepared!!

i thought it would be a blow off class, but it definitely wasn't. make sure you go to class because there are a lot of ten point assignments that if you miss, it will be impossible to get an A. tests are pretty difficult but you should be okay as long as you go to class!

At the beginning, I was sinking like a stone. In the end, I was bobbing like a cork.

She is very nice and very helpful. Her tests are not very hard. However, there are easier math 110 teachers. Jones gives out a ton of extra credit so I would take him instead. Stone is easy but you have to do the work.

she was a really good professor, just show up for class and do the homework and you should get an A in the class.

Stone is a great professor. I hated the material in the class but she made it alright. The exams are not hard, but you shouldn't expect to do well on them...given the class average is low, she will give you the chance for extra credit( an all or nothing deal). She is helpful. If you don't like to think, she is not the right prof. for you.

Amy was a nice lady to talk to. Her exams and quizzes aren't hard, but sometimes you are left with time in class and you just do busy work. She likes people to use her office hours. She is really considerate of having harder classes and having time to study or something like that. She always lets you make up exams.

Great teacher. She made the content as interesting as it could be, and brought variety into the homework with different projects and activities. I would highly recommend her if you are taking a course she is teaching.

Amy was a great teacher, but counted tardes which felt like highschool. Overall she was very fun, and easy to approach. Also she always made herself available - office hours and email. Very understanding to why you were not in class.

Amy is amazing! I had her for an SLA class, which I would suggest if you aren't very good at math. She makes things easier to understand and she definitely repeats things if you need help! She spends the first part of class answering all of the homework questions you have and explains things as many times as you need. Take her!

You might not think to take her for 225 but she's actually one of the better teachers for it. I had so much trouble with the material but she was always super-willing to help out and office visits would always clear it up, making the assignment and exams very fair.

Not bad when it comes to teaching. Was clear with her lectures and displayed the content in a organized manner. BUT...her test's are horrible, review sheets almost never coincide with what's on the test. mandatory attendance...and an anal grader on homework assignments, they all make for a bad class.

First impression can be decieving. Amy ended up being my favorite math teacher I've ever had. Recieved an A in her class and didnt even study hard. She actually takes the time to teach and clarify the material in the most simplistic way possible. Definitely take her if math is not your strong suit.

Hard class, will be retaking with a different professor

Stone was an awesome teacher, always offered to answer any questions about homework. Do your work and review, and you will be good. Tests are easy, and she is a sweet person. TAKE HER!

She is really helpful during class and office hours. She does give a lot of handouts for you work on in class but she is there to help you and you often learn better if you struggle through a topic a little first. Her exam expectations were clear.

VERY helpful & nice teacher! The best math teacher that I've had in a while!

She actually isn't that bad at teaching. Her notes are to the point and she gives multiple examples for each topic. She will always go over the book work (which isn't graded). There are writing assignments which are way easier than you will think at first. Her tests are tough, but do-able if you understand the material. Overall, not a bad professor

Professor Stone was alright. This class in general, on the other hand, was very difficult. Luckily all of the homework assignments were group assignments. I didn't know what was going on about half the time in lecture. The difficulty of the course has nothing to do with this professor though. Take her.

I had her for MTH 110 and she was awesome! She helped me whenever I needed it. Her tests were not hard at all if you study. She is pretty easy to get along with. I would recommend her!

I really liked Prof. Stone. She is really straight forward in what she is looking for and is very helpful. Make sure you do your online webwork homework and to come to class! She gives out 10 pt assigments in class that can either make or break your grade (She drops 2 usually). Tests aren't bad and if you need help she is easily approachable.

Prof. Stone is very easy to approach and gives out decent amounts of homework. The class is easy if you have prior knowledge, if not it is still easy due to the content level.

She answers any questions and it really helpful when you don't understand stuff. really easy to understand and the tests arn't that bad if your good at math like it or don't find it hard to understand.

Very helpful but her tests were very different than her examples in class which made class tough.

She was very pleasant to learn from

Professor Stone is the best Math teacher Ive ever had. She was clear & answered your questions in great detail. Her tests were a little different than the review but it challenged yourself which helps you learn. Also she cared about the class a lot & put a lot of thought into it. She returned grades fast too. Try to take Professor Stones class

Very helpful teacher. Class consists of learning, but she will slow down if class is struggling to grasp material. She is MORE than happy to help or explain, and if you do all the suggested problems for homework and really make a point of KNOWING WHAT YOU ARE DOING, then you will have no trouble :)

She is nice, but her class is super boring and test are tricky. She grades the writing assignments really tough. Her exams are tricky and not well written. She doesn't grade book work, and there are not many points to help you make up on a bad exam. If you are not strong in math, I would take different prof.

Professor Stone was a great professor. She was always willing to help out when needed and made sure her instruction was clear for everyone. There was a lot of homework, but thats the nature of math. The first hour of class is designated for questions.

Calculus is hard, but she made it understandable. There were no quizzes, but tests were thorough. Class was necessary to attend for me in order to grasp concepts. I spent a lot of time in the math center to keep up with Webwork, make sure you get above a 90% in your homework.

I enjoyed having Dr. Stone as a professor. You can tell she cares about the students and wants them to succeed. She is available in her office hours a lot and will answer any question you have very quickly. The tests were tough. The math lab was the worst part which was extremely boring along with the writing assignments.

Prof Stone was really cool and very passionate about math, the class I took was extremly hard though and some of the homework was online and that was a pain in the ass. fun class though.

Amy's a great math professor. I found her very helpful when I took Precalculus and she really helped me understand the material better. Study hard and come to her when you have questions. She's a caring, helpful, and all around great math teacher, solid choice. :)

Sure, Calculus is hard no matter the professor, but Prof. Stone was great at explaining things in a clear manner. There was quite a bit of homework, but if felt like necessary practice for such hard topics. Stone was very passionate about mathematics, and it showed in how she taught.

Amy was by far the best math prof I had, and was super accessible outside of class. She uses lots of examples and makes sure you understand the information. Even though you don't have to do the book problems, in order to be successful I would recommend doing them.

She lectured in ways to help you understand the concepts she was covering. She was fairly concise and straight forward in her speaking and could adequately convey knowledge. She offers many extra credit opportunities, but there are quite a few exams. You also do "Professional Writing" on concepts in class, which is a bit over the top for Calc 1.

Easiest class I've taken in my four years at GVSU. Plenty of extra credit opportunities, didn't even have to pay attention.

From what I've heard, professor Stone is one of the easier ones to take if you are going to take Discrete Structures. She uses Jamboard for her lectures, and posts them after the class is over. Overall the class was pretty interesting because you discuss topics that you've probably never seen before in a regular math class.

After reading some of the other reviews for Professor Stone, I have zero clue why they are so low. I thought she was an excellent professor. She does an amazing job explaining the material, presents it in a way that is easy to take notes on, and makes sure nobody is falling behind. She is a tough grader on tests, however. Would recommend!

Professor Stone delivered great material on discrete mathematics. She always seemed to know the material herself very well and was very on top of any questions that might arise (even very out there theoretical questions) and you can tell she enjoys what she teaches to the students. Overall a solid teacher for discrete math.

If you aren't someone who usually is able to learn in class, you have enough material to learn it by yourself at home. There are tests every Friday, but you get three chances for each topic to retake the tests .I do think that this class is too focused on WebWork (the online homework). I would take her again.

Amy is an amazing teacher. Throughout she tells us all the time if we have questions and she answers them nice and thorough. We have quizzes ever Friday, but they're pretty easy and you get 3 tries. There is a ton of webwork, but like I said, she will answer them in class if you need help and you can even email her and she instantly responds back.

The only thing I disliked was the webwork. Some questions in webwork she never taught in class like at all so you had to find how to do it but other than that It was fine, she gave you unlimited chances which is very nice but there was a lot of problems to do. She lets you use your computer for desmos during tests. Very easy tests.

Professor Stone was amazing! She does her best to help you understand what you are doing by going over homework problems with everyone when asked, and she is very accessible if you need extra tries on the homework as well. I would 100% recommend her!

Professor Stone was very very nice! Always tried to get the class participating, always asking if we had any questions and would go above and beyond to answer them. Lots of outside homework, so be prepared. Lectures did move by fast, so it could be easy to fall behind. Would recommend if you want to challenge yourself.

Professor Stone is pretty helpful, going over homework with the class. The quizzes are manageable, and she's responsive to emails. Using unstuckstudy ai alongside the textbook helped me get through the webwork.

Dr.Stone is a really sweet professor! She explains concepts really well, and provides a lot of resources to check your understanding. No midterms, but challenging weekly quizzes and annoying online homework.She does go over hw every class period which is nice! I really recommend her even though I found the class challenging. She is great at her job

She was super nice, gave lots of chances, and wanted her students to succeed. If you want to do good in the class, you will. Pay attention and you will learn everything you need to know from her.

I absolutely love Professor Stone. I love her teaching style, she doesn't overcomplicate everything and explains it in the simplest way possible. I love that she goes over homework at the beginning of class. Beware though, there are weekly quizzes that either make or break your grade. There's usually three questions and each are worth two points
