Mrs. Hestiyas was very helpful if you went to her. You can ask about any and every homework problem from the night before and she explains things in different ways than I had learned math before. I would take her again if I could!

I am a math phoebic and she was the perfect instructor for me. She was patient, thorough, and gave me plenty of opportunity to work with her after class. Being from another country gave her a different view when teaching. It was great. She was very encouraging and I would take another class with her in a heartbeat!

Professor was very good once I got a little more personable in the class. At first I was getting no sleep because of all the work I had, which made the class very difficult. Once time was free, the class became fun and interesting, and she showed us how to apply problems in our majors. Great teacher--currently trying to get a Math 126 with her.

She loves what she teaches and if you don't understand she will stop and help you till you do!

Very helpful intructor. My favorite instructor at tmcc yet! When I do not understand a concept, she is able to show me what I am doing wrong. I am able to ask her anything that needs clarifying and she will stop and show it. very easy to follow her lectures!

She is probably the best math teacher I've ever had. I struggle in math and she was always helpful and would stop and re-explain if I didn't understand. She really wants you to succeed!!

Very, very helpful. Her accent isn't a big deal. She saw that no one was reading the book prior to class, so she started making copies of the notes. See what I mean? Very helpful.

Extremely nice/ great teacher, wanting to help. Homework supper easy. Quizzes you get 3 attempts to get 6 questions correct. Self Study guides are extremely helpful for lost souls. Exams are only 18 questions. Such an easy "A" only if I took the first exam serious I would've gotten an A+. Will be taking her Math 126 class!

Blisin is an extremely wondeful teacher. I'm horrible at math and this is my second time taking precalc. She makes sure that you understand the concept and will go over it and over it again. She hands out a worksheet before each exam and goes through it with the class the day before the exam. If you're bad at math take Blisin! She's great.

She is very helpful and teach slowly in class. If you missed a class or test then she will allow you to participate on her different section. Her accent isn't a big deal when you are paying attention, yet sometimes she is boring, often i fell asleep.

Online math with her was difficult in the beginning but she wants her students to succeed. she is available during office hours if you need help and she does work with you if you ask for help. She has class notes available online which helps if the book doesn't explain it well.

I did this class online, I would recommend that if you take this class online that you familiarize yourself with MyMathLab thoroughly. Get an online study group together and she will help you get started. Mrs. H is very helpful IF you reach out to her, if you don't then you may not be successful in this class. Do well on the tests & you will pass.

She's a pretty cool teacher. Class isn't mandatory, but I recommend attending most of them, so that you don't have to try and learn the material on your own. Do the worksheets, not only because they are worth a lot to your grade, but because they help you be prepared on the test.

Was unorganized, due dates became a little unclear. Class was math lab heavy and test are performed through math lab. Don't get behind in this class.

She explains concepts very quickly & sometimes not very thoroughly; however, she is kind w/ a comprehensive teaching style (in my opinion) & will explain again if you ask. She won't accept late HW or make-up assignments. Throughout the semester I've e-mailed her with questions several times and didn't get a response, but overall is a good teacher.

Blisin is a great math teacher. She will go over a section thoroughly to make sure the whole class is getting. Also, the worksheets she has the class do before the tests are very helpful with passing.

Miss Hestiyas is one of the best Math teachers I've had the pleasure of taking. I knew the first time I took her class that I'd take her again for my other math classes. She is very helpful, enthusiastic at teaching, knows her materials very well, and compassionate to students. I highly recommend Miss Hestiyas if you're taking Math classes!

It may take a week or two to get to where you can clearly understand what she is saying, but be of good cheer, she is there to help you out.

Good class. I learned a lot. For a class that introduces calculus as well as applies it, it isn't impossible. But expect to work for it.

The online homework was fairly minimal, about 30-40 short problems a week in the beginning, but the work was not due the week it was assigned. All homework for a chapter is due the day before each test. So if you procrastinate like me, you can put off homework and do it all for one chapter a few days before the test. She helped me out when I needed

I never got math until I had Blisin Hestiyas as a professor. She clearly explains the subject and feels very passionately about it, which is great. She explains math in a way that allows you to choose your own way to solve each problem instead of giving you a formulaic way to solve it. This was the only way that I could truly understand math.

I loved the way Mrs Hestiyas taught math so much in math 096 that I picked her again for math 126. She cares about whether not you understand the material, and she is very willing to help. I would recommend her class to anyone who has ever felt like they could never understand math. She teaches you multiple ways to do each problem so you get it.

Loved Prof Hestiyas! She took the time to refresh on material that some students did not understand. Always made it clear that she was available to help anyone that needed the help. All you nee to do is the homework which she gives you enough time to complete and she gives study guides before each test. Loved her so much I'm taking the Math 126

Professor Hestiyas is a great professor who is passionate about what she teaches . She cares that her students understand the material and is super helpful during office hours. The class is a bit unstructured and didn't stay to the syllabus very well. If you want to learn, this is a good professor. Attend class and do the work.

Overall pretty good. At times, a bit hard to follow, but she is always willing to help after class to answer questions. Don't plan on getting emails returned, so better to utilize office hours and in person questions. Tests are worth almost all of your grades, so you better do good, or you wont pass. Tons of homework. I'd take her again though.

Love her! She cares about her students and wants to see them succeed. Took her for both 126 and 127. Occasionally had to read the book to clarify but her notes are thorough and always posted online. A lot of homework but you have plenty of time to do them. Study guides are super helpful. Fair grader. Only con is she took her time grading exams.

As long as you know what you're doing, you'll be fine. She weights her test heavily!

I like having Hestiyas and my precalculus teacher. She gave clear expectations from the class. She teaches by the overall learning instead of focusing on a lot of small details. She will mainly cover the big picture of that specific section. Hestiyas does talk fast; according to some people, I thought she talked normally, Be aware to pay attention

I did not perform well in this class, but that is not a reflection of her. There is a lot of homework, which is done on MyMathLab , however her feedback and handwritten lectures posted on canvas were good resources for an online class. Be prepared to do homework and ask questions. There is no late work accepted, so do not procrastinate.

This professor was great! The workload is heavy, but worthwhile. I was at average comprehension for most of the class, but from all of the repetitive chapter work I got a 97 on the final and in the class. She was very on top of making sure we actually understood the content instead of knowing how to answer problems.

She is very flexible, she does not read out of the book for her lectures. She ONLY uses it to show examples, but does not read word for word. She goes slow and ALWAYS checks to make sure everyone is up to beat with the class. She does hand out worksheets but they do not need to be turned in. It is for your own benefit; if you want to study them

Very sweet, understanding. I respect her and her work. She works with students and genuinely cares about you. She also gives good feedback that you can learn from. :)

Math 126, in-person. Upfront that you'll need to put in about 6 hours a week outside of class. Put in about 8-12 hrs. I did reading assignments before class. If you study and do test review over-and-over, you will make a 100% on tests. Turn in everything and attend class, you'll make A+ easy. Allowed extra credit for people who did bad on 1st test.

To everyone who complained about this teacher you need to revaluate she is incredible I was worst for wears with homework and school, her lectures and videos saved my school life in the end, she is so supportive and truly can not recommend enough.

I wouldn't have survived learning through zoom without this professor. She is well organized when it comes to the materials, and on top of that, she makes her practice videos if any of us are struggling with specific problems. She goes above and beyond to help the students out, and you can tell that she genuinely cares about the student's success.

Post step by step videos of the harder homework questions. Exams almost mirrors the study guides so you know what to study for. Overall, pretty good instructor.

Pretty easy online class. Tests, quizzes, and homework were identical. Does provide videos on "hard" homework problems. But honestly, just practice the problems and reach out with any questions and the class is a breeze. She is willing to help, all you have to do is ask.

Watch the videos because it will show you step by step on how to gets answers to most homework questions.

I took the math 126/26 course with her online and she makes it very easy to learn math, is also very helpful if you are struggling, and wants you to pass her class. There is a lot of homework and assignments but if you watch her lectures and follow the extra help videos she provides you'll be fine.

I can't believe she has such a low ranking here. She is great, and I loved her class (took online). She told me in the first week of class when I had a zoom meeting with her, "If you do the work, you will get an A" and this was true. The tests could have been much worse, and every question on them were ones we had done already in the HW/quizzes.

Blisin is a great professor and I really enjoyed her class. She has a lot of homework but it's not super hard.

She has videos of the lectures, and she offers example problems for all the homework. There is not any reason you will come up on a problem and not know how to do it. She gives such accurate study guides for the exams so if you study the study guide, you will get a good grade. I highly recommend taking her class, she is the absolute best teacher!

Professor Hestiyas gives all the tools necessary to pass the course and then some. She is absolutely wonderful
