Unless you know the material going in, I'd stay away from this teacher. The classroom is her domain and she lets you know it. The only grade is 4 exams and a comprehesive final. Doesn't go over any of them afterwards so you, "don't get in her face about it" Says she can't handle people crying in front of her. Thinks she's teaching at Harvard,

I took her for a summer (crash) coarse. It was definitely a real challenge for me, not a math wiz - her grades are on 4 tests & a cumulative final. Positives - she hands out great notes & she will replace your worst test score with the average of your final (if the score is better). She is also a very positive teacher & explains math in easy terms

Prepares lecture notes so that time in class can be spent actually learning the material instead of writing every theorem down. Exams are directly from the prepared lecture notes.

I took Calc 2 via Zoom. Andrea is a caring instructor and has a passion for teaching Calculus. Though this is not an easy course, if you attend class and watch the lectures... you should be fine. The only thing I did not like was watching pre-recorded lectures on our own time and just going over questions during a 2 hour and 15 minute class.

If you take this class online it's basically self learning through MLM; you learn through readings and videos and all homework, quizzes and tests are through MLM. Andrea is there to answer any questions you may have over the material. Ask questions and show effort you will pass the class.

If you need added help don't take this class. Does not take time to break down further, goes fast, and test heavy. Insensitive to ADA Accommodations. Never taking this prof again.

I legit had to learn everything all by myself without any of her help. She made things way more complicated than they should have been, which stressed me so much. We had quizzes all the time and she would work super fast-paced where I couldn't catch up with any of the quizzes or anything. Now i was to retake this class!

She's a passionate professor but a little too passionate. She wants the students to be mathematicians just like her. Grading tests and quizzes very harshly. Would not recommend this professor if math isn't really your thing or just trying to get by if it's a prerequisite for your major. Her teaching is really self-learn-based.

She does not teach concepts in class and then on tests will give the hardest material from the book. I was not prepared for this and although I should've done better ended the class with an F. I took another teacher the next semester and ended with an A. Unless you are prepared to teach yourself I would not pick this teacher.

Professor Vorwark is incredible. This class was SO hard for me, but she was super responsive and available for help. She very clearly lays out expectations as well. There's 3 proctored exams, but all the quizzes and homework you can obviously use your notes on. There were lots of tears (lol) but I'm so thankful I had her as my teacher.

She doesn't give the idea that she knows the material herself. Asking about most things will have her lead you to a tutor or Khan Academy rather than try to help you out herself. She seemed to treat my class as a guinea pig for some new proctoring software which she seemed about as clueless as we were about it. Withdrew in time to avoid a bad grade

She provides her own study guide to go off of, which she makes cheap on purpose. You can print them in the library instead of going through the bookstore who will just rip you off. Works slowly and tries to make sure you catch on, but won't linger. Not opposed to making up examples to help you understand. Homework aplenty but that's for the best.

She is good if you are a visual learner but she moves very quickly so it's easy to get confused or lost. Also if you miss one day, you're kind of screwed unless have someone else to help or you can try to teach yourself. There are no assignments so you are only graded on the quizzes and tests, if you're a bad test taker wouldn't recommend.

SHE'S AMAZING!! Absolutely cares about not just calculus, but her students too!! She's very understanding and takes calculus at a pace the students can understand, even if a hiccup ruins the schedule. She's extremely accessible if you have questions about the homework or course, and questions just related to the course! I love Dr. Vorwark!

If you are looking for an online class, I recommend enrolling with her. She is always open to answering any questions you might have and is very polite. There were interactive assignments, homework for each of those, three projects, quizzes, discussion boards, and a final exam. Keep track of the due dates and you'll be okay! The best out there!

Awesome professor! She always has quizzes to ensure you do the homework and understand the material. I would definitely recommend taking her for calc! The test somewhat aligns with the review but is a little harder and has more questions.

Professor Vorwark was great, make sure you do the homework but as long as you participate and put some effort in you will be alright. Go to her office hours, she is great!

I definitely recommend Prof. Vorwark. I took this class online in 8 weeks after I withdrew from my in person one which was extremely hard and compared to that class this one was a breeze. She gives a clear grading rubric and it's overall easy. There were 3 exams and 2 were proctored. Make sure to turn everything in on time because it will add up!

Answers emails and grades very quickly. The eBook for Math 120 is terrible-things not working, errors and questions out of order-this is NOT her fault and she can't do anything about it, but understands these things are very frustrating. There is a little bit of extra credit, and she drops your lowest quiz score, so don't worry too much.
