This teacher is very helpful, and does not make tests difficult. She just wants you to do your part (like all teachers). Make sure you do the review before the test and you will be fine. She is a graduate student and shares her stories. These stories help me think better about myself. Even if your horiible at math, professor Coradway helps you.

Also, one more note. Homework and quizzes are extra credit. If you do the test review she gives you extra points. Also, the test are directly from reviews, no tricks!! Also, if the class attendance is high she does cool things with the tests like take home, group, or class test..... Totally awesome math professor.

Prof is very nice and inspiring. She is very helpful and knows math. However i did not like this class because i learned absolutely nothing.

I would like to touch on the last comment posted. Mrs. Cordaway is GREAT. If you did not learn anything, ITS YOUR OWN FAULT. She explains math crystal clear and answers questions.She assigns homework and reviews. Every choice is left up to the student. Including Learning.
