I don't really understand why so many people complain about this teacher. She has been teaching for 25 years, and she clearly knows what she is doing. If you actually care about school, your results will show. She's available to help whenever you need. Take this teacher if you care about graduating.

I got an A. Lots of Homework; Took a ton of time to finish. The teacher and hw pretty much forces you to learn. If you only did the homework though, you would always do well in the class. Quizes and Extra credit make class a requirement. Class was only 1.5 hours. Teacher cuts to the point, but loses her rough edges once class starts moving.

Homework was ridiculously easy, but took hours. Plain and simple, she teaches you statistics. Honestly, probably one of the best professors I've ever had teaching me a subject I wasn't interested in. Do the homework, get good grades. GG. PS, GROUP FINAL, LOL.

This is the BEST math teacher that I have ever. She is very helpful when you have question during the test. She also wants to see people pass. she is a strict teacher but a good teacher. she doesn't let people do whatever they want to do. I would take a class tough by her again.

In a math class of course it is not going to be easy. Yes, she does assign a LOT of hw but it honestly does help remember everything considering there is a ton of new concepts to go over in precal. Tests are tough and she doesnt give reviews so thats when the hw comes in handy to study. Overall nice professor, very clear and helpful lectures.

Nice and great professor:) but theres no room for procrastination just do your homework and study

Great professor:) but be prepared to do homework

Wasn't too bad, didn't received your test, quiz, homework back in a timely manner, so you do not repeat mistakes. Your notes and work HAS to be in the format she wants, until she is satisfied with your stuff (gonna be awhile). Be VERY specific on your questions until you understand the problem. Very knowledgeable & willing to assist students.

Tough class, but is thorough and clear in lectures. Gives good, clear examples. Do the homework!

Definitely knows her stuff, communicates well, lots of help, extra credit, fun in class group things. Made friends with teacher and most of class. You need to stay up on homework, but definitely do-able. Tests are hard, but not unfair, honors Q's included, so sometimes you get EC without even knowing it! Gives a bit of history of why.

I love her teaching style. She goes through easy concepts before proceeding to more complicated ones. She's interactive with the class when going through problems on the board, so it's not just her solving it. I wouldn't take her again just because the tests are difficult, but I've definitely had worse math teachers as far as teaching goes.

Enjoyed the class. The prof. made her lectures as interactive as possible, while throwing a few jokes in there to keep everyone engaged.

She is so nice and so helpful. She really cares about her students education.

This is the kind of professor you look for when you care about transferring and learning the material. She teaches in different ways, catering to what that particular class needs to learn the material. She never gets mad at a question that "students should already know", and has a fun, sarcastic sense of humor. Wonderful prof, would take again.

There are no study guides and the tests are cumulative, material-wise. However, there are a plethora of quizzes that lay out what each test will cover and the Prof. is very clear about what material she expects you to know well, what will be provided for you, etc. This is somewhat advanced math so stay on top of the information and you'll survive.

I've had this prof. for both M150 and M151 and there is quite a lot to say - mainly: lots of homework, occasional quizzes, tests graded with extra credit but ARE given out slowly, 2 part final - group then indiv. From my experience, she is genuinely nice, knew the topics in-depth with outside applications, and did take the time to help students.

She is a good teacher, her grading is tough but I still feel she is a good teacher and really does care. If you study, her tests are so easy a precalc student could pass them. She is a tough grader becuse her tests are the easiest I have ever seen. If you ask a question during the exam she will help you work though it. She wants you to do well

I took math 151 with her at winter. she cares about her students and answer patiently with all the questions you ask(even the things you should already know from the previous classes). We had 3 exams, the final had group and individual parts, quizzes are open notes. No surprise on the exams and final. JUST TAKE HER

was worried at first as reading some previous rates about her, but I can say confidently that she was the best math professor I've ever seen. Her class is not easy, however, it's calculus 3. You would feel the same whoever the professor is. I would like to take her again if she teaches math 255 next semester.

I don't know why all the negative review. Had her last semester when we went remote. She's not a bad teacher and really wants you to learn. Her class does get a bit overwhelming but that's because she put a lot of homework out to practice. Overall, I liked her, she transitioned well online and she knows her math well and can teach it

Her online calc 2 course is probably one of the easiest classes I've ever taken, I had an easier time taking that last semester than calc 1 the semester before. Pro Tip: answers for everything online lol.

I barely passed calc 1 and I failed calc 2 the first time so I was worried about taking this class and was considering switching out of my CS major, however prof stephens made things really easy to learn and her exams were also way easier than my first calc 2 class so I did really good in cal for someone who hates math as much as me

Professor stephens honestly wants all of her students to pass and achieve good grades and her class is designed as such. If you do even the bare minimum amount of studying and homework you can expect an A. As someone who struggles in math, professor Stephens made the material seem easy to comprehend.

If you struggle in math like me then consider taking professor Stephens because she really helps and cares about people who struggle to understand the material, and she always prepared us well for the exams. Her class was the first math class I was ever able to an 'A' in surprisingly.

It was my second time taking calculus 2 when I took this course and I wasnt sure If I was even going to last a month in the class, but after just a few classes with professor stephens, it was clear that I was going to do well with how easy she made the material and the exams. some concepts were hard but she always clarified them good if you asked

Professor Stephens is super sweet. She cares about students and will give opportunities to fix your grade. I had Calc 2 and Calc 3 with her. Hint: DO THE HOMEWORK. Similar questions on the exam.

Keep in mind the dates of all those reviews and the class - Calc 3 during winter intersession, which means the course is cramming about 16 weeks worth of material into a couple weeks, OF COURSE IT'LL FEEL OVERWHELMING. Professor Stephens is sweet, and I currently have no problem trying to understand the course work through her recorded lectures.

If you are a fast, independent learner that studies hard then it is possible to get an A. It is a tough course but you will learn a lot. Tests were easier than expected. She offers test corrections which ended up saving my grade. I recommend taking this class if you plan on transferring to a top university. Only downside is very slow grading.

I took professor Stephens for an online class. All exams were in person. They were modeled in a way where you would have a group portion in the beginning. That would help you for the rest of the test. She has a lot of homework but, she was available a lot for office hours and she is more than willing to go out of her way to help.

I took her online course for Calc II and it was tough. I will never take another online class ever again. HOWEVER, Becky was awesome. She is there for her students and available during her office hours. YOU HAVE TO TRY. Tests were good, I went to math lab frequently and watch youtube videos when needed.

This was a summer class for eight weeks and the first she taught in person. She's much better in person than the past reviews say and was a decent teacher. She sometimes lacked time management as we also didn't cover a few important topics, but overall was dedicated to making sure you learned and understood the material and exams aren't too bad

Professor Becky is very caring and very knowledgeable about Calculus. She has students work in groups, and it really helped me understand the material. Fun project at the end of the course. The exams were not too bad, but she does grade slowly. She is accessible after class if you have questions.

This professor is very caring, and she made me feel less afraid of math. She has students work in groups, and a lot of the class time is students working together on problems and on activities. She is accessible to work with you outside of class if you have questions.

She is caring, and I felt very comfortable in her class returning to school after a few years. She genuinely wants her students to do well in her class. She is great to talk to outside of class.

Cool teacher! Take her.

Hello! I feel as though Professor Stephens gets a bad rep that is unwarranted. She is tough but fair, she is strict but compassionate, critical but ALWAYS willing to help and explain. I get that not everyone will benefit from her teaching style but from personal experience, I was able to excel because of her and her teaching philosophy.
