I have NEVER liked math, nor have I ever gotten a good grade on a math test. She makes math understandable, and I am getting A's on my tests. She explains how to do the problems thoroughly, and doesn't rush through them or teach straight out of the book. She assigns a fair amount of homework and the tests are easy if you study!
She's new to MJC but you will not regret taking Mrs. Huisman. She goes over everything, and makes sure everyone understands before going on the the next section. Best math teacher I've had in a really long time.Just do the hw, go over the study guide for the tests and you'll do just fine. Answers emails very quickly too. Highly recommend.
great teacher.
I would recommend Ms.Huisman because she takes her time on showing how to do the work and if someone has a question she won't go to the next section until everyone understands the section. She can also be very sarcastic so she makes class fun.
Great teacher. Really helpful, she shows a lot of examples and explains every step as she goes. Im so happy I took her class
Best math teacher i have ever had! She explains math problems crystal clear. Her tests are the same as the practice exams given out, except different number. Loved her grading system, instead of a whole math problem being wrong she scores it out of a certain amount of points of how much you got right. Overall easy A if you attend class .
BEST math teacher I have EVER had! She explains everything so clearly and it all makes perfect sense. Uses an online homework system, but not difficult to use at all. Very helpful and answers all questions. Fun personality =) Do the practice tests and you'll be golden! You won't regret taking her class!
Do the online homework! I didn't and my grade felt it. It really adds up. Homework isn't hard though. She explains things very well and is very helpful. Great personality, kind of a dork! Very Hot!
took math 70 in the fall super easy! she's extrememly nice I have recomended her to friends.goes a bit slow but for those who aren't good at math like myself it helps! wish she taught 90! and she's hot haha
Before I use to hate math but I realized it was because of the people teaching it. It was not until taking Ashley class. I sing her praises. She is amazing. She is very detailed, organized, and understanding. At the end of the semester I fell in love with math. Thank you Ashley. I wish you were teaching Math 90.
I'm taking her Math 82 class at SanJoaquin Delta College, and he makes math extremely easy for me! :) Love going to her class every day! :) Great professor! I recommend takin Ashley's class if you get the chance! :)
Best Math teacher I could have hoped for. She is very helpful, kind and easy to understand. There are no surprises on her tests and I felt comfortable asking lots of questions during lecture. She makes her own notes and then lectures off of her notes. No book. Homework is online using mymathlab which is super helpful. GREAT PROFESSOR.
I cannot even begin to explain how helpful and sweet she is. She will never get mad at you for asking a question and does her best to make sure everyone succeeds. She's understanding and knows that not everyone loves math, but she still makes it easy enough to understand. I would absolutely take her class again and I would recommend her to everyone
OMG...I haven't seen a great teacher like her before, wish she could teach math 134.. we all need her!!
Professor Yu the greatest Math teacher I've ever had. She makes certain that her class understands the material perfectly while still maintaining a friendly/relaxed atmosphere. I just wish I could have her for Math 82 next semester, she's that awesome!
Take her enough said!!! I took math 70 and 90 with her.She teaches so clearly and wants you to do well.She is also young pretty and very patient.Her jokes are funny too!I have always hated math but she made taking her classes a lot better!I saw her the other day and went out of my way to say hi to her because thats how awesome and nice she is!!!!!
Awesome teacher!! I wish I could take her for all my math classes. She has a way of explaining things so that they make sense to people. Highly recommend her at any level!!
used every source available, to teach Math required to pass. She explained and demonstrated Math problems clearly and gave excellent example for homework that made it easy to understand. She use full size board to teach. She explained in an easy ways to understand the steps to get the correct answer.
Such a great teacher! Her aim is for everyone to succeed and is great with questions from students. She makes sure everyone understands the material before going onto the next section. I'm not usually a good math student but I can honestly say I understood everything she taught this semester. Highly recommended!
If I could I would like to have her as my only math teacher. She makes math easy to understand and she's so animated. She lights up the room!
Best math teacher ever! Made everything so easy you didn't have to use the book. She is enthusiastic about math and makes learning fun. Very helpful. I recommend going to class every time because there are quizzes to take and a lot of material to cover. I highly recommend her to anyone who doesn't like math or struggles to get good grades in math.
She is the best math teacher ever! She makes everything so clear that you don't need to use the book. She is super helpful. Makes learning fun and exciting. She lights up the room with enthusiasm and jokes. I recommend for people who find math boring or difficult to take her. Remember to go to class each time to take quizzes that will come up.
You will love her. She's a nice teacher. Definitely take her. You will change your point of view in math.
shes so pretty and nice.i took her for math10 she tries to make sure everyone understands by making work easy i think she curves grades because i dont know how i passed honestly i like her though i reccommend
She is one of the best math teachers ever! She is so helpful and funny which helps me to stay interested. I love math though so if you aren't a person that loves math you will still like her. She is so caring and understandable. I can honestly say I have never had a math teacher that was good at math and had a great personality.
She is the best math Professor at MJC. I am just telling you one thing if you see her name on the schedule TAKE HER!!!!! you won't regret it.... she is always there for you if you have any questions, her lectures are so clear and the way she explains everything made calc so easy!!! took her class after two weeks school started but still doing fine!
The first time I took Calc I didn't do so well. When I took Calc 1 with Yu, it turned into the easiest math class I've ever taken. Her lectures are not only crystal-clear, but any questions that may arise she will immediately answer with some kind of funny explanation tied with it. I will definitely be trying to take her class for Calc 2!
Professor Yu was a great teacher. She has really well planned lectures and was always more than happy to help. She's really funny and does her best to make math fun. Would definitely take her again.
An awesome person. Very humble, helpful, and has thorough explanations. Expect homework as assignments have around 100 problems average, but she offers help and you get a week to do it. If you math isn't your strong suit, take her but do homework, sit in the front, and ask questions. Don't skip class as you will miss crucial info.
Great instructor, she makes the class funny and entertaining. I have taken other math professors for the same subject but she makes it easier to understand. Just complete the homework for practice and practice on the practice tests, they help a lot. Definitely will be taking her again if I get the opportunity.
She's a lot of fun and makes the class exciting. She goes fast, so if you miss class or come late, you will miss. Keep up with the homework and you will fly through this class.
I got an A+ in this class but you have to work for it. The homework is a lot , I mean a lot. Ask questions in class or online and study study study. She has a great personality and totally approachable.
Mrs. Ashely Yu is every math students best hope! She explains everything and waits for the class response before moving on, and random off the wall comments and humor are welcome. A fun class even for this math hating student. I truly believe it was meant to be when I got her as my teacher. Fair grader, practice tests, extra credit. Love Her!!!
Professor Ashley Yu is the best math teacher I have taken at MJC! Make sure you attend class, take notes, participate and you will do well. She gives out practice tests so you know what to expect on the exam. She is open for questions during lecture, so don't hesitate to raise your hand. If I had to take math again it would be with her!!!
Professor Yu is by far the best math teacher I've had at MJC (of which I've had six). Showing up for her lectures is MANDATORY, but I promise you will learn the course material thoroughly. I went into Calculus 2 very intimidated by integrals and walked out feeling like a master of them. Take Ashley Yu, you'll regret taking any other professor.
Something about the way she lectures makes class engaging. She has a great way of seeing math from the point of view of a student, that makes her a great teacher.
Mrs. Yu is a wonderful math instructor. Homework is easily manageable and lectures are very focused and clear -- those worried about professors who skip/do steps in their head when writing on the board should fear not! She makes an effort to show all work, leaving nothing to interpretation. Practice exams always given. She will make you succeed!
I am taking Professor Yu this semester and she is absolutely one of the best professors I have had at MJC. She makes everything very clear and puts everything into terms so everyone can understand. Not a single bad thing to say about her. Take her!
I took math 90 class with her this semester. She is an AMAZING professor. She is the best professor I have had. She makes math so fun, and explains everything very clearly. I loved her class and made me love math so much! I got a lot of knowledge from her class! She is the best! She is so caring and inspirational.
Best Math professor! I really enjoyed her class. She's clear cut in her lectures, gives practice test before an exam. Homework due on mondays. Very helpful! She made math fun!! Take her!! MATH! MATH! MATH!
I had a lot of trouble understanding the material and failed with a different professor. I love the way this professor explains in detail how things work. I was able to understand the material and passed with an A! She challenges and pushes us but she's really sweet and an excellent instructor. She has a sense of humor and really cares about us.
I took Yu for Finite math. Despite being an 8 am class, I never found myself sleepy during her lectures. She made it easy to understand and gives great feedback on homework and exams.
She was so great and funny. She made it very understandable. I would take her for every math class if I could.
I enjoyed being in Professor Yus class. She is gifted in teaching, and her optimism in mathematics is invaluable. Her lectures were organized and very helpful. Professor Yu is dedicated to her teaching and is passionate in influencing young minds. And she is very beautiful, with the hunger to help others. I hope I can take Math 101 with her soon.
Mrs. Yu is one of the best professors at MJC and of the entire math department. She explains everything with such details and always takes her time in lecture to make sure everybody is understanding the material, not like other professors who likes to rush through lecture. She is truly caring and an example on how math college professors should be.
Really kind and funny prof. You can easily pass with a B or A if you're decent at math. Math is my enemy so I always end up with a C. I was unsure about taking it online but with her its a breeze. Her exams are fairly simple as well and she's a kind grader.
Best professor in the math department.
Absolutely, the best mathematics professor at MJC. She made integral calculus easy to understand. She takes the time to make sure her students thoroughly understand the material. The material is by no means easy, as you will have to put in a lot of work to complete homework problems and prepare for exams, but then again, that is to be expected.
THIS WORLD NEEDS MORE TEACHERS LIKE PROFESSOR YU IN THE STEM FIELD! Very understanding and knows that not everyone is good at mathematics, she will hold your hand and lead you to the promise land! Wonderful teacher with a great heart for humanity.
(Hybrid Class, only on campus for tests) Best Professor I've had so far, especially since math is not my strong subject. She made it easy to understand and is easy going. She makes corny jokes and is a goofball and I'm glad I was able to learn from her and not from the other professors. If you need help with STEM, take classes with her! :D
Ashley Yu is such an underrated gem. She's funny, engaging, and doesn't unfairly grade. She gives partial credit for what you do correctly. Her lectures online are fairly long, but not undoable. I cannot praise her enough. Take her if you get the chance.
She's just awesome! best math teacher ever. I was struggling with math for the longest and her teaching abilities made me love math! Class was very simple, quizzes would often be as a group or individual with open notes. Test were easy and short, up to 15 questions max.
Great Professor!! You turn in hw every Tuesday, she does tend to assign quite a bit. It's not hard, just repetitive. Exams are easy if you know the material and "pop" quizzes every week. They're only one problem and are VERY easy. She's lenient and really wants you to pass. Don't be afraid to ask questions. Just do the hw and you'll do well
Professor Yu is great. Her lectures are easy to follow and she's great at communicating the material/simplifying it. Exams can be difficult so make sure you truly understand the material and do all the homework problems. Also, she's very friendly/approachable and is always willing to help if you need it. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed her class.
I was really nervous for trigonometry, by with Yu it wasn't all that bad. I took it in the summer too, which really scared me. For the summer, we'd have quizzes weekly but it was more to check attendance. The quiz would be simple, 1-2 questions. The important thing is to do well on the tests, they will make or break your grade. Quirky prof overall.
The best math professor I've ever had! Math is far from being my strong suit, but I managed to pass with an A. An A or B can be easily achievable as long as you take all the lecture notes (from her online lecture videos) and do the homework problems. An index card can be used for the two midterms + final, and she's quite the lenient grader as well!
Awesome! Hybrid - on campus for orientation & exams. Lectures are great aside from some audio issues, content is communicated perfectly, great teacher if you struggle with math. You are given a note sheet that must be filled out with lectures, usually 2 lectures (30-60 mins each), 2 HW assignments, and 1 quiz per week, HW and quizzes on MyMathLab.
I love Ashley. I've taken her for two classes and both have been some of my favorite. She makes math so fun! She's super bubbly! She's very knowledgable, understanding and willing to help students who are struggling. Math is hard, don't miss class and take good notes, but Ashley is easily the best professor at MJC for math. Take her if you can!
Due dates for homework were updated late, she used a horrible online text, her lectures were terrible and full of mistakes, and she would not respond to emails asking for help. I learned more using free youtube videos than I did taking her class that I had to pay over a hundred dollars for. Ridiculous that this is the quality of instructors at MJC.
Professor Yu is a good professor. Unfortunately she uses bad language in her lecture videos.
I struggled with Math all through high school and was suprised when I was placed in a more advanced Math. Professor Yu is so good at teaching math, the easiest year of learning math I have ever had in my life. She is very funny and is very acessable if you have any questions.
Professor Yu is a great math teacher. She has a great way of engaging while shes teaching. Her homework isnt over long, and her midterm and final reviews are in-depth and very helpful. I wish she taught all the MJC math classes. Shes a real gem. Take her class, you wont regret it!
Professor Yu is an amazing math teacher. I took her remedial algebra class during summer 2021 and learned so much! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a math class at MJC that she offers. Shes easy going, funny, and very pleasant to interact with if you have any questions or concerns. Looking forward to taking her 111 class in fall!
Professor Yu is one of the best math teachers at MJC. Her lectures go over the material thoroughly and she goes back and explains the stuff that came before it as well (simple math type stuff that I tend to forget). We get to use one flash card of notes on exams and she offers extra credit. I wish I could have this prof for all my math classes!
She explains the material very well. She is pretty funny in her lectures. There is a fair amount of homework but its not hard if you pay attention. Shes available most days for office hours via zoom. I wish I could take her for all my math classes.
This is seriously my favorite math professor at MJC. Ive had her for 29 and 111 now. She doesnt make you feel stupid for asking questions and is available 4 days a week in office hours. Her lectures cover the material very well. She is a great professor and a really nice person. Take her class, she makes learning math fun and stress free. 10/10
I love Professor Yu! I have always been awful at math, but her lecture videos explained things in a way that made sense. Took two math classes with her and received an A in both. I have never gotten an A in a math class in my life until having her as a teacher. She was understanding when I had internet issues as well and gave an extension.
Professor Yu is super nice and interesting, not to mention funny. She does not require much work.
Professor Yu is hilarious if you attend her lectures. She is always willing to help others and emails back fast. She offers many extra credit opportunities if you need them. Easy A if you do the assignments. Overall love her Zoom lecture will miss them a lot.
Take Professor Yu if available.
Prof. Yu is a great teacher. She has a positive energy that is contagious in the classroom, with a down-to-earth personality. She is honest about what she doesn't know (very rare) and is always willing to help students understand the subject, the homework, etc. Be prepared to do old school textbook homework. Exams are pretty easy and fairly graded.
Makes the confusing and abstract subject of linear algebra easy and simple to understand. Good explanatory lectures that go through an outline of the textbook. Tests almost directly resemble the practice exam. Weekly homework quizzes are exact copies of problems assigned in the homework. Definitely take this teacher.
Very positive energy. Professor Yu is a wonderful teacher. The work is relatively easy and her tests were on topics well covered. Highly recommend if you have the opportunity.
She's a great person, she's super funny and her lectures are fun. She accepts late work if you make the effort to communicate. She offered a lot of extra credit and her exams were not so hard. The class material is what made the class a bit tedious and hard but it's not on her. She's a wonderful person and cared for her students.
The content is hard and you might find yourself skipping lectures to teach yourself but she's a good professor and is super caring. We covered a lot of stuff in a short time so she rushed some things but that's how the course goes. She offers a lot of extra credit and also takes late work. The tests are also easy. I recommend taking her class :)
Sad she's not teaching next semester, this classes content was abstract. Her exams weren't as tough as understanding what was going on in the lectures. Just practice and do the homework.
She's an awesome professor, she's super nice and has good lectures. She offers a lot of extra credit and her exams aren't so bad. The course is hard though so you might have to learn a lot on your own but she definitely made it more fun to learn the content. I will miss her she is super cool and friendly. She really cares about her students.
I genuinely enjoyed her lectures a lot. I would actually be excited to learn from her because her energy is contagious and she has a very bubbly and positive attitude. I'm so glad I took her course because she made learning fun and I ended up understanding everything by the end. Her tests are pretty easy and she offers a lot of extra credit.
(This review is for 112 since 111 dosen't exist anymore). Yu is one of the best teachers I've ever had. Incredibly fair with notecards and partial credit on tests. This was my first math class and I can tell I will miss having such a cool teacher in the future. As someone who's brain stopped understanding math after 5th grade, TAKE YU'S CLASS!
I took her Dual Enrollment semester for Math 101. Even though it was all online, she was very straightforward with the assignments and the grading. This class is easy as long as you watch the lectures and do the homework assigned. Sometimes, putting the videos 1.5x speed is recommended. When it came to grading, she was really lenient and flexible.
Ms Yu is super understanding and always responded quickly to my emails when I had technical issues. The class was really manageable, and had unlimited attempts on problems and multiple chances on quizzes. Plus, extra credit for taking notes. The lecture videos were somewhat old and had poor quality, which made them hard to hear. Overall great!
I took college algebra with her and she's amazing! My favorite thing about her is that if you ask her to extend a due date, she will not even think twice about it and help you out. In my class, we had 3 midterms and 1 final but she drops the lowest midterm. If you aren't the best at math but have to take a class, take Mrs. Yu she's the best!!!!
Professor Yu is kind and funny. She does take a few days sometimes to respond to emails, but its very helpful. She doesn't assign much homework and her exams are easy and you're allowed a notecard. Her lectures are boring and she throws some humor in them. I would take her again.
I really enjoy having her, whenever my classes and work overlap for my midterms, she would adjust time for me to do midterms for me. Would recommend taking it!! And as long as you do notes and turn every assignment in time. You should be fine.
Math is my worst subject a she understands that this subject is overall hard. She cares she will help you pass no matter what teaching style amazing and tests are straight forward easiest math class I have ever taken take it for your GE work hard and it will be a breeze
