No concept of material, no control of the class, rude to students. Doesnt tell you the work you missed if you are absent (even if its excused) [makes you ask other students]. Heavy accent. Long lectures full of mistakes (no grasp of material). Will try to joke with you, but is offended if you joke back. Ignores students she doesnt like. You must have 70+ as a test grade to pass her class (could be a departmental standard), or buying that). Hates students who know information before she teaches it.

A fantastic professor and I am so glad that I didn't drop her class. I read all of the comments on here and I know I am not good at math. But I am so glad I didn't cave in to what I read. It was a great experience having her and she is totally awesome. I learned so much in her class. And I passed with a B :o)

She is horrible. The way she teaches is very poor, she does not explain the exercises to the class, she just does it without stop eventhough, the student are not understanding the class. She does not help the student to understand the class. She grades students differently by giving partial credit to some students and not to others she is not fair.

This professor is great, I couldn't believe the comments that I just seen. I think the reason why everyone says that she is hard is because she actually teaches you to learn unlike many other math teachers. Take her but be prepared to learn and yes no calculators, we are not in high school.

One of the worst teachers I've ever had. She sat in front of the room and mocked our tests while grading them. The class high for that test was a 65. You have to teach yourself, she pretty much refuses to answer any questions you ask. Her response is usually "you should know." There are other teachers for this class, take it with one of them

If she does not like you, right off the bat, expect to be in for a rude, nauseating, snippy semester with her. She will not work with you at all to help you improve your grade.

She moves at a fast pace and copies problems directly from the textbook. You need to speak up if you're lost, she will leave you behind. Most of the verbal instructions and help came from the SI. Unless you're quick and can understand by watching someone else solve a problem, you will need tutoring/assistance.
