I did not care for this teacher's class because I felt she was very lazy and showed favorism towards some students. She grades unfairly on the excel labs and tests, hardly explains the supposed errors that were wrong. She is okay, but I think their are a lot better math tearchers at wake tech. She is just there are the paycheck and that is it.

I thought she was a good overall teacher. Test information was well covered and she gives partial credit for answers with minor mistakes. If math is easy for you, this class should be a breeze.

This has by far been the most difficult class for me. Although professor McKee is super nice and tries her best to be there for her student, it is a very heavy workload. The tests are what weigh your grades the most therefore, be ready for lots of math practicing. She gives partial credit for in person courses!! Life saver!!

When I signed up for this class I had no idea that I would have to go in person to take exams. I ended up going in to take my first exam only to find out that the end-of-unit exams would have a maximum of six questions. The final exam was 20 questions and she didn't reserve enough time slots for everyone to take the exam. I would NOT recommend it.

She has outdated lectures and puts minimal effort into the class. Hard to reach. Testing is a joke. Hardly flexible. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. If you're genuinely interested in mathematics, she will make you hate it instead. As I needed this class for my degree, it's been impossible and I'm about to drop out entirely.

Professor McKee's class was very difficult. Way too much homework was assigned with what felt like we barely even covered in class. She does group assignments.. which some may like and others may not. She made up an extra day on zoom for my class and did not consider that we all have personal lives or other classes to take..

Overwhelming amount of homework. Not accessible for people who work full-time. If I had known that the tests for this *online* course would be required to be taken in-person, I would not have enrolled. I live an hour from the closest testing location. I've had to take time off of work because of this class which defeats the point of online classes.

You could bring a notecard with notes for exams, however, some of the homework was a bit confusing and I believe she did not explain it well. But I still enjoyed her class, and the projects I did with other students would be a easy grade. I would take her again.

Precalc is hard no matter who you have! This course assumes you have prereq skills but they are reviewed some in the first unit. She does guided notes and then practice from the Lab Manual in class. This worked very well for me but it does require strict attendance! Try to take this class with as few other credits as possible IT WILL TAKE PRACTICE!

Teaches great, however quality of teaching drops towards the end tremendously. A lot of unnecessary group work which does not help. Does easy review problems in comparison to test and homework. Not lenient with grades.

Would not take again. A lot of group work and Big group project. Does not give extra credit like that. Test review she only does group games instead of going through problems herself for the class. Does get lazy after unit 1. Also if you do all the work for the group project she will still give everyone the same grade. That only u should deserve.

This professor do not admit when she makes a mistake. There were several mistakes in assignments. Too much unrelated Group work, I had to be in 4 different groups which makes up 30% of grade. Test are in person only. Has her kids in teaching videos making noise, very unprofessional.

So sweet and caring! This class was by far one of the harder classes I've taken but not because of the prof! Ms Mckee is so helpful. This class should definitely be taken in person and prepare to devote a lot of time towards this class.

I loved this class and Mrs. Mckee. She is very sweet and entertaining. I loved her lectures even though this class was challenging. If you skip class, you will be very confused. Classes are long, and complete concentration is required. The group project was fun and relatively easy. I would recommend this class to anyone who needs to take it!

Tests are taken in the testing center (even though we are in person), blackboard is a complete mess, the notes are disgusting and look like they were made by a 5 year old. She doesn't make any study guides, she doesn't even make her own lesson videos. Show up to class and you are expected to know everything. Save yourself the time and go online.

I haven't finished this course yet but the few quizzes I've taken have been almost impossible because there aren't enough instructions to be able to answer the questions correctly. You can find all the answers on google, so at least it's possible to pass them. You just won't learn anything.
