Fun easy no homework collected
She is horrible and seems to hate your job. No homework collected but the test are tough as nails. It's like a ancient mummy is teaching, so lame. About 10 people take the final and only a few actually past.Tabatabai for me!
She is hard to understand and explains every little detail in a problem which usually makes it more complicated then it needs to be.homework isn't worth anything, but she said she was gonna change that, quiz every week, and 4 test on scantron.
This woman is horrible. Whoever gave her her teaching credentials made a horrible mistake. Dont take her!!!
if you have troubles with math she will help you because she explains and goes step by step she slowly explains which will make everyone understand... she is nice
i cant believe how many ppl thot she was hard. not the best at explaining but really easy. honestly u kinda had to be stupid not to do well in her class. i mean try a little at least n ur cool. da ppl who said she was bad were lazy
SHe is easy maybe to easy shouldnt be giving scantron exams in Math cant explain diddly got an A but I did study not alot but throughly I dont know enough for 115 Cant you hire some descent Math teachers at this school
Calculus 1 with this professor was complete torture. Starting out with 35 students, she barely had 7 by the end of the semester. She trails off when speaking, looks like shes constantly depressed. Is very single angled when explaining a problem which makes her very unclear. DO NOT TAKE HER!
Can't teach; worst teacher i ever had; always looks depressed; hated her class; lots of students dropped; i wished i did.
A very nice teacher. would do anything to explain problems you might have. Sample test before every test guides you. If you find her class difficult it might be that you are not ready for college. Make sure to do the assigned work.
terrible, terrible teacher. can't teach at all and she isn't very nice to ppl.
Her class isn't too hard. As long as you do the assigned homework you will be ok. The class is kinda boring, but if you put some effort it's not hard to get a good grade.
terrible teacher, can't teach, never smiles.
Please if you read this , do yourself a favor , Dont take this teacher. She is never smiles, and can explain a simple fact like 2+ 2= 4 for an entire week. And dont be shocked if she expects you t write whatever she said in the quizes. ya rwrite a book on 2+2= 4.Terrible and depressing.
Pretty easy teacher. Got an A. Very monotone and bored but overall good teacher.
She says herself: I don't care if the student attends, as long as they perform well on the tests. But be WARNED: if you skip, you will not get the grade that you want, and may end up repeating. Nice person, but won't hesitate to give you what you deserve if you screw the class, then screw up on the exam :)
Good teaching method, writes good notes. Exams and quizes are basic, she won't try to trick you. Some of the questions are taken right out of the homework, the rest are similiar to homework, or to examples done in class. If you don't like going to class, only doing the HW will suffice, if you don't like HW, go to class take notes, you'll do fine.
Very good teacher! She gives pre-test that are exactly like the actual test. if you study those and do your homework you will pass no prob. Good Luck!
ok, i don't know what all you people are talking about when you say "she gives you a pre-test of the final". She gave our class nada. I don't really think she cared a lot about her students and I don't think she did her best to try to help everyone! Don't take her!
She is a bad teacher, dosen't care if students understand her material, and there is no pre test like other people say.She says that if you don't understand you have to look for help some where else.
She is OK. You can take her class and get A easily as long as you do your part.
I stepped down to take this class, bad idea. This teacher is boring..boring..boring. She has a VERY monotone voice making it hard to do anything but yawn and get extremely bored. I do not recommend her at all.
There are students that constantly catch contradictions in her lectures. When she writes notes on the board, she does it in such a disorganized manner, it makes it hard to follow. Her test questions are poorly worded, and there were instances where more than half the class didn't know what she was asking about. She really seems incompetent.
She will repeatedly go over problems you do not get, very organized and will take extra time after class.
she is the worst person i have ever met...has some kind of passive aggresive attitude...her class is worthles..her lectures are worthless..and she even said, and i quote "calculus is all guessing" she couldnt even explain why a slope is conitnuous when o is in the demonitaor of a fraction. her tests are usless, and she should be fired immediately
do not take this instructor!!!!!!!! horrible cannot teach
her class is worthless..her lectures are worthless..her tests are usless, and she should be fired immediately...she is the worst teacher ever.
She is awful, awful, awful. The worst. Very unorganized and very unhelpful. Avoid this teacher at all costs!!!
She is so not helpful. You can't hear her when she lectures. She is really a terrible teacher.
She is the single worst math teacher I have ever had. I would rather jam heated nails into my foot than take another class with her again.
I dont recomend her, she reads out of the book, her lectures are not worth comming to,there is a quiz every week and 3 exams that are worth 20% of your grade each so if you mess up on one, say bye bye to an A in the class... she makes it dufficult to get an A or a B if you are satified with a C take her.

Probably one of the worst math teacher I have ever had. Her lectures are so boring, and I do not even learn from her...I have to basically teach myself. She is very uptight, and she has the dullest personality. She is not very helpful, and i definetely DO NOT reccommend taking any of her classes. She also yells at you if you say one word..beware!
She is awful, awful, awful. I DONOT RECOMMEND her.
By far the worst teacher in the world. I can teach better than this woman. She is very unorganized. she doesnt even teach us. she teaches herself. And this online **** is the worst idea that she could do. it is very frustrating and i hate it. i want to go home after class and jsut cry.
do not take her. worst teacher in the world. you have a better chance learning from a 3 year old
One of the best professors at pierce. She's very, very organized and easy to understand. She makes her lectures interesting and her tests are easy. If you can't at least pass her class you are a moron.
Professor Forkeotes gives clear lectures and easy tests. Just spend some time studying and you'll find her class a breeze.
does she ever smile. bad teacher. she is not organized at all. she is not helpful and sooooo boring.
I believe Forkeotes has escaped from a hospital somewhere out there. She is one of the worst teachers I have ever had. I don't believe she should be allowed to teach.
It bothers me that people have said such awful things about Ms. Forkeotes! Though she is a bit quiet and unhappy looking much of the time, she's a bright lady! Who wouldn't be bored teaching a math class!? If you study and participate she'll love you. She only takes interest in the success of the class which from what I saw was quite low!
For all the maths 125's you don't know what its like having this quality of a teacher with unclearness teaching single variable calculus, you are complaining from the simplest math possible which is 125 , though im willing to bet she cant teach that either
I don't know where to start with her, she seems so unhappy but towards the end of the semester i felt like we broke her out of her shell and she wanted to help, just didn't know how exactly. I DEFINITELY WOULD NOT RECOMMEND her but shes not such a horrible lady like everyones making her out to be!!!
The final exam was so unexpectable hard, but the class is so easy to follow, just doing ONLINE HW and take her notes and study hard, NOT an easy class,on the other hand not that bad!! you will get what you try, finally I can say I love her without any reason!!
Well from my experience, I think she taught the subject very well even though she kind of rush towards the end of the semester.She'll be a very attractive professor if she smiles more often.
She was a good teacher, but just the class being an online one is pretty tough... i thought it was going to be a breeze, but little did i know. She's helpful though, but in general, i just dont recommend taking a math course online especially if one is not that great in the subject anyway.
She goes too fast for me. I have trouble in math, and I spent more time trying to keep up with homework and tests rather than completely understanding what was going on. It does not say it in the couse description, but half of your grade depends on online homeowrk and tests. If you are not good at math, don't take her.
Never ever take her. Such a bad teacher, doesnt understand what the student needs. Only forcusses on the sylabus.If you know your math you are fine because you are not going to learn anything from her.She shouldnt be teaching at Pierce.
NEVER EVER TAKE HER.BELIEVE ME, YOU WILL REGRET.
"O.M.G" Did some one say the class was HARD. Now that is a reason to slam the teacher. I think she is HOT, in a librarian kind of way... And YES I did see her smile once. She's going too fast? Well maybe you're just a "little bus" kind of person... If you don't get "math" you probably wont get the "teacher" either.
WOW!! awful teacher. Always depressed and sad and doesn't care about anyone. Worst math teacher I have ever had. I dropped the class and got a W and I don't regret it. DON"T TAKE HER PERIOD!!!!
it's funny how only failing student give bad reviews. well she was great. test are not hard and not alot of HW. she is very nice and knowns her stuff. not impossible to get an A, like some have stated. TAKE HER!
she was wonderful! very helpful and nice. she will make efforts to push your grade up. it is true that it's a hard class but it's the material, not the instructor. i would probably take her again.
Worst Math Prof at Pierce. Don't be fooled by these few positive comments, and FYI I passed her class...quite easily might I add. She has no interest in teaching or making sure her students understand the material. She attempts to cram 2 days worth of lessons into 1 and she doesn't answer questions thoroughly. I got nothing out of the class. Avoid.
Even though the class was not easy, she was great professor because she is always happy to help people in her office hours. I learned a lot from her.
DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS PERIOD ! It's a hard course and she makes it even more difficult with three exams and a cumulative final each 20% of your grade. NO CURVE. Screw up on one of the exams, forget about getting a good grade. STAY AWAY
Lecture is interchangeable with the text. She stops taking attendance after about the first month and afterwards, you may as well only show up for the physical tests if you can follow the book. Daily online homework and online chapter tests. Overall a fairly easy class, but she speeds along, but if you have trouble keeping up with hw, don't bother.
I took this teacher 2 years ago and just recently checked the comments for this horrible teacher. I was in high school taking this calc course at the time and I was good at math meaning I got an A in EVERY math before. I failed her class because hw is online, she never writes ONE thing on the board.
do not take this class. she is boring, all hw is online and the book is expensive and pointless to buy. i have learned nothing.
I took an entirely online math class but you were able to come in on wenesdays for help if needed. about 85 percent of the class dropped out. she refused to answer questions or even respond during tests. as far as the online math course there is far too much homework expected and typing it is extremely frustrating because it has to be typed exact.
IF YOUR REALLY GOING TO GIVE THIS CLASS 100% TAKE IT IF NOT DONT!!!!!she is ok teacher if you pay attention go to class EVERYDAY and do the homework..SHE IS BORING..gives alot of homework and it takes forever but the tests are multiple choise..in class all she does is go over note which she emails to everyone..The class went from 40+ to 5
She is an excellent teacher. What are you guys taking about? She plans the class, she posts her notes on a web-site so you can print. Then if you bring them to class you just can fill in the blanks with all the examples she gives. She is very knowledgeable. You can go to her office and she will help you. I think she really enjoys math and teaching.
The worst teacher. Not helpful and extremely difficult. Expects you to know everything and if you don't, well too bad you'll fail. She is good if you are a very gifted student who is very interested in math and able to teach yourself. A normal student should not take this class. She is a nightmare
Best teacher i've ever had, as long as you do the homework and get a 70% on her test you will pass it, all you need is to put a little motivation and dedication to your work and youll be allright. I mean as loong as you work hard is all good, You must be a dummas if you dont pass her class because shes an excelent teacher.
It's obvious, miss one class and you're behind. She "says" her notes are posted online, but all that is posted online is her examples and definitions, no in class notes. For some, that might help, but most rely on a certain amount of help from a teacher. Which one are you?
one word: HORRIBLE. i mean shes nice but not helpful at all. she expects u to know everything or get everything she teaches but how can we understand when she's just speaking in a monotone?? i dropped this class.and so did over 50% of it.this was my 2N time taking the course and i still had to drop. very boring, hard to understand. DO NOT TAKE HER.
If you are planning to take the Math 261 for the second time, I might prefer her but not if you are taking this class for the first time.
She is a good teacher.She explains everything very well,very open to help in person or by email,she replies to emails within a day,she is a fair grader (gives you some points for a problem even if you do not make it completely right). All problems in tests are from the book. Homework is quite simple. You can get an A! And she is a VERY nice person.
She assigns WAY too much homework. 100-200 problems are due every couple days. Which makes it impossible to study and focus on the things you are struggling with. Tests are scantron. She doesn't explain things very clearly at all. I was confused a lot. I was able to get a B by doing ALL the homework though. It really saved my grade.
She is like a robot.do a tiny mistake and you will lose most of the points on a question.She is my last choice of a professor period.
Most people in this class rarely showed up, procrastinated doing the homework and studying, and failed. This is calculus, NOT child development. Review all her notes and ALL assigned homework problems (with solutions manual), and go to office hours and you should get a minimum of a B or possibly an A. WORK HARD!!
we used Elementary Algebra by Sullivan. I dont know if my previous knowledge in Algebra helped or if she really was the best instructor, but I loved her. It felt like she explained things as if I were in like 2nd grade or something! Yes, you use the textbook for hw and tests are with scantrons. Took the class Winter 2010
She's a robot. Not very funny, dull, etc. Nothing much to say about her. Just try not to fall asleep. Class is straightforward otherwise.
Underrated professor; she teaches her subject well, exams and final were both extremely straightforward. Hard to see how Calc 101 could be made easier, actually. 20% of the grade goes to quizzes and hw, and following the second exam the quizzes were take-home. What she lacks in charisma she makes up for with intelligence and subtle humor.
One of the Worst Instructors :-& her class is really boring! if you complain about your grades during the semester, there is no chance for you to get an A in final.If you make a teeny mistake in a problem or if you don't use her method but get the same answer in a different way, you will lose all the point of that problem.
She's kinda strict and not a fair grader. She tried to explain the materials to the class, but still it was CONFUSING. The tests were different from the lecture and hw. She gave us the ol hw, and really it was not helping you for the test.
Math is not necessarily my strongest subject, that is why I am glad I took this professor. I got a C only because that was my fault, not hers.If you ask her questions she is ALWAYS willing to take time during class to discuss.She gives a lot of homework because it really does help you succeed in understanding the material.She is very kind and funny
She's great teacher, but she is strict, don't take her if you don't want to learn and give effort to study for test.
Great professor; gave a very elegant and intuitive presentation of the material also introducing rigor. I received a high A in her first semester Calculus course for math majors (I even got 100 on the second exam which most kids in the class did poorly on) and my advice is this: don't over think the material, for it's a lot simpler than it appears.
DO NOT TAKE HER FOR CALC. She teaches to her computer screen and projection paper. She gives NO PARTIAL credit for quizzesexams. Her ONLINE HW DOES NOT prepare you for quizzesexams at all. Sad print out notes with bad proofs of concepts. She DOES NOT enjoy teaching or will see your hand get raised. Don't expect her to help you master or pass.
This professor manages to make a fairly easy subject insanely hard with long-winded diatribes that don't clarify the material. Tests and quizzes are difficult and bear no resemblance to the homework or lecture material. Also beware, if you use a method other than the one she uses she will punish you with zero credit even if you get the answer right
She gives an unbelievable amount of homework. She should give students more time to be able to complete the homework because there are so many hw problems. She does offer to help you if you don't understand something. Other than that... I don't recommend her.
Do not take her class! She gives too much homework. you wont have a life. She makes this class unbearable while its an easy class. she is the worst professor at Pierce college.
She is not a good teacher. Don't take her.
I had taken AP CALC AB in high school and got A's, and a 4 on the AP test. I took this course as a refresher. I came to every class, took in depth notes, did all the homework, and studied hard. Her tests are mostly conceptual and totally screwed me over. She doesnt care if 90% of her class is failing. However,I'm not a math person.
She was pretty good. She can be a little confusing and will ask if you understand every few mins or so. If you keep asking she tries to keep explaining until you get it, if not ask after class. Like I said, a little hard to understand like shes all over the place but its only if you ask her to explain something again. Offers extra credit, tryto do!
Her lectures seem like there are going on for hours. She's monotone and will rarely see a hand up. The only time she clearly explains her lectures, are during her office hours. I would not take this class again.
She rambles on and is not clear at all She marks answers and work wrong if it is not written like she writes the problems in the class She doesnt know how to explain things and when we ask she just makes it more confusing DONT TAKE
Professor Forkeotes is the hardest teacher i have ever taken. She assigns so much homework for one day. And aspects us to do at 150 math questions in a short amount of time. The tests that she gives is about 25 questions and 3-4 of them are problem solving and gives us a little bit of time to do the test but her quizzes are easy only 5 questions.
Professor Forkeotes it's horrible !! Don't take her if you have a job or family or anything else to do in life !! She gives a lot of homework, her lectures are long and boring not only that but if for some reason you didn't understand what she was saying and you ask to repeat it again or to explain the problem she will tell you to go home n read
I took her for Calc 1 and regretted it. She lectures in a monotone and refuses to give any slack; her syllabus alone should've warned us all to drop! I used her posted lecture notes in tutoring to catch up and the tutor said that a lot of it was unnecessary pain. I took this class because I couldn't get in to any other (last minute registration).
She's brilliant and underrated. I'll never forget the second exam where the class average was a 50% and I was the only person who got 100%. A bunch of stupid girls had the audacity to say the exam was flawed when in reality it closely emulated the homework, only it required conceptual understanding. Take responsibility for your failure people.
She isn't that bad. Seriously. If you show up to class and do the homework you will pass! I promise. There is a lot of homework but it's worth it because it prepares you for the tests. I got an A and this was the first math class I took since high school which was 17 years ago. If I can do it, so can you!
don't take her! you will need to pass all her exams and quizzes! if you fail one exam, you will end up with a C or lower! She assigns homework but she doesn't give you credit for it, is only a preparation for your exams and quizzes.
stay away she is not good, a really hard professor and 90% of the overall grade is based on the exams.
Forkeotes is a very good professor. she care about the students and she always ask if we have any question about the hw or the material. if you want to pass the class, you just have to study the material. the exams are usually pretty easy
currently taking the online summer math class, just a few words of advice, dont take it unless if you really have to. assigns like 6 homework assignments that are due in 2-3 days, most are up to 51 questions. the videos hardly help you learn anything. this is the most stressful class ive ever taken, and everythings online except final is on campus.
DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR!!! If you want to take a class with this professor beware. This class was really difficult for me. She it VERY monotone and difficult to hear even when you sit in the front. She does not explain problems clearly and her tests are all short answer. You have a quiz every week. Expect A LOT of homework (10-15 hours a week).
Gives too much homework, lectures are super boring and there is no class interaction. Voice is super monotone, gives three exams plus MET final. There are also weekly quizzes, which are 8-10 points each. So you have to study lots. Class is easy its just her that makes it overwhelming at times. Sounds unsure of things when lecturing, says um a lot.
she is worst teacher, i ever had in my life. Her tests and quizes are hard, but there is not a single exrtra credits avaible for anyone.
Too many exams and quizzes. No extra credit. Notes are just examples, no other info given. Very boring and inconsiderate of other people's time, gives too much homework and places very little point value on it. Worst class ever, half the class is asleep, ten minutes into class.
Too much homework, and it is worth so little. Absolutely no professor-student interaction, tests and quizzes are worth more than 80% of your grade. NO EXTRA CREDIT, super monotone, no curve, no rounding up even if it is 79.99999%. HANDS DOWN THE ABSOLUTELY WORST PROFESSOR THERE COULD BE THAT THEY HAVE AT PIERCE!!!!Should have dropped this class!!!!
Most people don't like Forkeotes because she teaches and assesses her courses at the college level. Giving her a revenge rating just shows you haven't yet cultivated the attitude necessary to succeed at college. If you think she's hard, try taking analog courses at a UC. She helped turn me into a math major; very intuitive and geometric approach.
She isn't as bad as people make her out to be. The workload is up there, 3 exams, bi-weekly quizzes, and an online quizzes. The assignments helps a lot, it makes you better at math at least. If you do homework, do some studying, you can pass and ace the class.
she's on the older side of the scale, tries her best to teach, goes a little fast, a lot of homework, if you are a hands-on learner I do not recommend taking her, didn't use the textbook ONCE but if you're a textbook learner I guess you could buy it.
She is very inconsiderate. It's like you are talking to a robot. Doesn't answer questions in class. She tells you to study certain things for the test and she puts completely opposite questions on the exams. NO EXTRA CREDIT EITHER. DOOOOO NOOOT TAAAAKE she will ruin your GPA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very boring, A lot of homework, 3 major exams, online chapter tests, quizzes every week, and final. She has a very strict game plan, rushes a lot through material if she falls behind, very black and white teacher, no extra credit. Purchased the book- Haven't looked at it once.
If you're not willing to put the work in, you will not pass this class. She is a very good teacher and may seem intimating at first but she really does care about her students. Homework for every section, the usual amount of quizzes and only 3 tests. Don't use your phone in class she really doesn't like it. Very nice lady.
She was very lecture heavy and went very fast through the chapters during the term. Homework was every day and would sometimes take hours to complete, which would leave almost no time for actual studying.
Have not learned a thing in her lecture, uses webassign for homework and it's the only reason I have learned anything in this class.
This professor is extremely under-rated. She is an amazing math teacher and cares a lot about her students and how they do in her class. She will go a little quick in class but never decline any questions during lecture. The homework is easy as long as you spend your time correctly and she bases her tests/exams from the homework. Extremely helpful.
Prof. Forkeotes is one of the smartest math professor's I've seen and she's very approachable and personable but most choose not to speak with her. Her class's structure is exactly what's on the syllabus, cover sections, do homework and quiz's. You have 3 tests and 1 final that will add up to 80% of your grade, no extra credit. You will learn a lot
I respect her greatly because she seems to be a good person, but I wouldn't take her class again. She's trying to explain you everything, using very academic vocabulary. When I couldn't understand her material, I watched courses on Udemy and that's how I got B. She doesn't give any extra credit.
Super boring, takes way to long to explain simple problems, and then goes into to much detail making everything confusing, avoid like the plague. Super simple class if you show up and do the work (and teach yourself), but she makes this topic hard because she is so boring. No passion and is a stickler. Would never recommend this teacher.
She is a very knowledgeable and smart professor. The problem is she lectures the whole time and doesn't really explain what she is doing, and doesn't leave much room for questions. She overloads with information and assumes that people will know what she's talking about. Again, clearly very smart but I had to teach myself outside of class to pass.
She was very nice. Mymathlab for HW/3 exams/final. Each20%. This class can be difficult, but it's not impossible to get an A. Use a good graphing calculator, & ask her for help. Its a lot, but HW does prepare you for the exams. No trick questions. She's much more kind than the other reviews made her seem. Good teacher overall. Wanted us to pass.
Amazing professor!! She doesn't deserve these bad reviews. Super helpful, straightforward, and prepares you well. She wants everyone to pass. There are unlimited attempts for HW, 3 tests, and a final. Took the 5 week course online and I loved having her!!
Her lectures are informative & helpful. Unlimited attempts on homework serve as great practice to lock in information & prepare for test & being able to review them before exams is very useful. If you score low on exams it is not her fault bc she provides a lot of information and tools needed to do pass.
Took her for Fall 2021 through Zoom. Used prewritten notes from previous semesters so its VERY hard to follow where shes at because shes just talking about what is written. The assignments and quizzes are through Cengage but the final was departmental so it was through CANVAS. Better off learning through the textbook or other sources
She is a strict instructor, but you will learn a lot from her if you go with the class.
She is the type of professors that is caring and nice. But unfortunately cant teach at all, lectures are extremally boring, and hard to understand our online homework taught us more then she did. Test are graded terrible gave me -2 for not putting feet/sec. Take her only if you really have to and there is no more spots left in other classes.
Extremely nice and explains topics really well. You could ask her a million questions and she will take the time to go over the subject in a non-judgmental way. The online homework provides videos and examples that are really helpful for the test. Only complaint is she doesn't upload your grade till the end of semester, not tech savy at all.
Best math professor I've ever had. Incredibly good at explaining complex concepts and gives tons of examples. Lectures are very clear and will answer any question no matter how simple. I would only take her if you know you can attend all the lectures as she doesn't upload her completed notes. Much of the test is based on examples done in class
A very kind professional professor with a clear teaching style and explains the reason clearly. Ignore the rest of the ratings, take her if u are a chill person vibe. Just ask and she is willing to answer.
Clear, Lectures might be boring, but very intelligent and kind enough to answer
A kind angel, clear teaching and gives great feedback. Classes might get boring , but so far so good. However, she doesnt give extra credit
Really sweet professor, will answer any questions. Super intelligent.
Professor Forkeotes is great. Lectures can get super dull though. She is very thorough and willing to answer any questions. 4 exams total worth 60% of grade. Study guides provided. Homework due before beginning of each week worth 20%. Rest of grade is final exam. No extra credit. Recommend if you have don't have great prior knowledge. Just study!
Excellent professor who explains concepts clearly. The online homework and resources like ChatGPT and unstuckstudy are super helpful for study prep. Attendance is a must, but a rewarding class overall.
Just a good calm professor.
Course got cancelled due to low enrollment, however the few lectures that took place were great. Professor was good at explaining the topics, really helpful and easy to approach. If I get the chance I would take her course again.
Took her class it had been 5 years since I had taken precalulus. She's knowledgeable of the material and her lectures are all you'll really need I never once read the book. Make sure to ask questions if you get confused on something she did. Home work was brutal for me but it will you teach alot. Definitely try doing it yourself till you get.
Do not take this professor if you want your sanity intact by the end of the semester. If you do bad on one test just say goodbye to a good grade. Lots of homework that she doesn't even teach half of. She doesn't post grades so you have to go to her personally to find out what you have. Fast teacher and teaches as if you know the subject already.
