Ms. Jumper is one of the best math teachers around...prior to her class I was a C student in Math and in her class I am making A's on everything. She is extremely helpful and hilarious in class. Just do the work and she will make sure you understand it...and you'll get a good grade.
She is awesome. She keeps you interested in what she is teaching. Wants you to succeed.
Prof. Jumper is the best math teacher there is. She explains everything as many times until you get it, she is funny, listen to me take her class you will pass because math will make sense the way she espains it. she is the best i am serious. please pick her you will not regret her. she always have time fo you.
Brandy is an amazing teacher! She makes math fun and class interesting. She is a dedicated teacher and is passionate about what she does. I took Brandy's class my second semester of returning to school after 18 years. I was doutful about making an A but told her I would work hard to achieve my goal. She always had time to help me and even stayed la
Brandy Jumper is the best algebra teacher I've ever had! Homework not required, but attendance is if you want to keep up. Review tests exactly like test (multiple choice). Hilarious, sweet, and makes algebra fun!
i loved her! if u dont get math take her!! no homework assigned!!
She is always happy and cheerful!!! Class will never be boring she keeps you on your toes...
Awesome, Awesome professor, she always cracking jokes, "It's no a slasher film, you can't just slash ["cancel"] out everything!" She's great... If you take her class and tried to pass, you would... She teaches what to exspect on the test and things u should know... Makes it extremely fun and interesting... Going to take her for all math she teaches
"Jump" rocks! She's always cracking jokes, having fun and all this while she's doing the lesson with you on the board. If you have questions she'll stop and go over it until you get it. She's not one of those profs who just goes and teaches and leaves you out to dry, she explains the "why" factor. I finally understand!
The best math teacher I've ever had. Never boring and really knows her math well. She explains everything and doesnt leave anyone behind. I would take her again in a heartbeat!
I have never liked math, and Jump has changed that. She is so cool and is an awesome professor. Jump's class was so much fun and for the first time in my life, I made an A in a math class. I loved her, and would recommend her to anyone! She rocks!!
I LOVED JUMP!!!!! SHE IS ALWAYS SAYING SOMETHING IN CLASS TO MAKE US LAUGH OUR BUTTS OFF. SHE IS AN AWESOME TEACHER AND I HOPE THAT SHE TEACHES COLLEGE ALGEBRA IN THE SPRING SO I CAN TAKE HER!!!!!
The best math teacher I have ever had. Take her! By the way,Jumper would NEVER make fun of someone with a disablity. Not sure why the person that left that comment did. She cares about you and will make sure you "get it." I wish every professor had her passion!!!
she is an awesome teacher and extreemly helpful if u want to take the best teacher take her
Good teacher, helpful and really knows how to teach. Has a big personality so class is interesting. No intros to the subject in class so read ahead. Show up 15 - 30 min early to capture notes. Gets frustrated if we don't catch on right away. Tough grader, doesn't like multiple choice but doesn't give much partial credit either. No bonus points.
She's awsome! She makes algebra easy to understand. Is willing to answer all questions and clarify for students.
I was nervous before taking this class as I've had really bad luck with Math teachers (had 2 that either couldn't speak English or couldn't do math) but Jumper is extremely fun, makes math more enjoyable and tries to make it easier. She is by far the best math teacher I have ever had.
Jump is by far one of the best math teachers I have ever had the pleasure of having. She is compassionate about her teaching. She wants you to understand, and will explain the material in different ways until you understand. Truly an amazing professor! I highly recommend her to anyone that has given up on math.
I have just one thing to say about Brandy Jumper: Take her. Take her now! Rearrange your schedule if you must! She is clear, helpful, tests are straightforward, and she will make time for you if you ask for it. If you must take math, choose Brandy Jumper! Love ya, Jump!!
Amazing teacher! Even if you have to rearrange your schedule, she is a must-take teacher. She is crystal clear when she is explaining things and will not move along until everyone is on board. Test reviews are almost identical to the test. You will not be disappointed if you take her!
JUMP iS AWESOME! I am horrible at math and always have been! I took college algebra over the summer and was dreading it! But she made it fun and interesting!And was very helpful. Got off topic a little (she loves nascar. The quizzes you take are over the previous homework.. as in copy numbers 1..5..7.. etc. Do your homework! It's worth it
I friggin love Jump! The funniest most exciting math teacher i have ever had. She uses analogies that make you laugh but make sense. She really cares about her students, and is always around for extra help. If i was gonna get in a fight, I know Jump would have my back, and I would have hers. I love Jump!
I love professor Jumper! She is so funny! She is one of my favorites! She makes anything easy in math. She is the best professor I've ever had! I took her for 305, 310, and college algebra next semester. I recommend her for everyone. :)
best math teacher ever.... she definately will get across to u and make sure u get it. her classes r always fun. i've taken her of 0305 and 0310 trust me.... if u come to class take note do homework u will pass. i have made a 100 on all her tests this semester
SHE IS THE BEST MATH TEACHER I'VE EVER BEEN WITH! You'd be really crazy if you passed up on taking her class. I REAALLYY RECOMMEND HER! This is probably the only class I look forward to attend evrday. She really explains the lessons very well,and she would stop in the middle of the lesson just to make you understand whatever you do not understand.
VERY GOOD PROFESSOR, FUNNY AND WILL EXPLAIN OVER AND OVER IF YOU NEED IT.
Good teacher that is willing to help. I took her class during the Spring so we had to use a website called coursecompass to do everything but the tests. Coursecompass is awful but brandy is awesome. Take the online course of hers if you can(no coursecompass)
She is an AWESOME teacher, best math teacher I've ever had and we've only been in class 3 weeks so far. She make sure everyone understands everything before moving on, is very open to questions& funny! Highly recommend taking her for ANY math course she teaches!
Excellent teacher of a subject that I loathe. She makes math understandable, while keeping the class energetic and tolerable. I highly recommend Professor Jumper.
Jump is AWESOME! I took her for 1310 by recommendation of a friend and never looked back! I am horrible at algebra, or so i thought, I never had a professor be able to tell me WHY we did something and Jump does. She loves the subject and gets excited when she sees her students "light bulbs" go off! Wish she taught every subject!
Ms. Jumper is AWESOME!!!! I was fortunate enough to have her as my high school math teacher as well as MATH 1314 (College Algebra). Ms. Jumper is able to explain everything to actually make sense and she does a GREAT job at it!! I highly recommend Ms. Jumper if you struggle with math and want a teacher who actually cares about you passing!! :)
took for algebra, shes crazy awesome, best math teacher ever, she'll explain everything crystal clear, will help with what ever you need. excellent job at teaching and will make you understand everything. take her end of story. don't look anywhere else get her class as soon as you can, it will fill fast!
Jumper is the best! I was fortunate enough to have found her on RMP and took her MATH 1314 summer class, BEST DECISION EVER. I recommend Jumper if you struggle with math and want a teacher who actually cares about math and her students. There are no stairs in Lubbock :).
All the previous reviews are correct. Jumper is wonderful. I have not taken a formal math class in over 17 years, she made me feel relaxed, and encourages questions from the class. She is so funny, and goofy which makes time fly by.Best math teacher ever!!!!
Very helpful and she breaks it down!!! I took this class with Normita Blakenship and failed retook with Jumper and my lowest test score was an 82. She's verrrrry good at getting it across to you!!!! She teaches you how to use the calculator wich helps a bunch!
She is wonderful. Thanks for this web then it can help me and other find a good teacher like her. Get her to learn.
What a great Professor! I enjoyed coming to her class the entire semester. She is a REAL Math teacher. She cares about her student very helpful and very funny. I recommend her to anyone who is struggling to understand Math.
I am in my junior year and Jump is BY FAR the BEST prof Ive had so far!!! She deeply cares about her studenst and wants everyone to learn and succeed. She realizes that you are struggling and makes it her goal to help you along! She uses her "jumper-isms" which are super easy to understand! Wish I could take her for all classes!!!!
Jumper is a great teacher. She doesn't mind explaining things until the class gets it. She provides a clear timeline and gives ample warning for tests and quizes. I will be taking her for College algebra. She is funny and makes the class time go by quickly. She should be given more credit classes to teach
She talks way too much, about herself. The class IS EASY but she gets annoying when she starts laughing at her own jokes & thinks she is funny but it's pathetic. I WOULD recommend her for quality of material coverage. She gets pissed off about cell phones and headphones. She seems immature for her age, so some of you kiddos might fit right in
for College Algebra- this was pretty easy!! i took her for summer and she was real cool- talked alot off topic, but the class wasnt hard and there wasnt too much homework! her reviews were just like the tests! and often times she gave us hints on which would be on the test! :) would DEFINATELY take her again!
she is the coolest math teacher i would recommend for anyone that isnt good with math to take her b/c she knows how to help you the right way.
She is the best! If you dont understand something, she makes sure you get it. She will always help you on the tests, and sometimes gives you the answer.
Take Jumper! That's my advice for anybody who needs to take College Algebra. I was dreading this class more than anything, and with Jumper, it has actually been a good experience. I am learning and enjoying Math! Who would have thought? It is something my past teachers were never able to accomplish. Amazing teacher, and incredibly helpful.
Take Jumper she is the best teacher by far. She knows her math as she calls her self Math Nerd, took her Summer 1 111 she feels good when her student to great i never met a fantastic teacher like her. Take her if you need a teacher who cares.I wish she would teach statistic.
I took her for Summer I&III class.The first test was easy.The 4th test&the Final was the easist.I only wish that she would teach Math 1316, as well as other higher math level classes, since I would take her again!!Also I like the quality of notes that she writes it makes so much sense!As for the other comments about her it's true!
Jumper breaks math down to a language everyone can understand. Her heart shows through as well as her humor. I hope to be as great at teaching math as she is!
Awesome math teacher!!! Best one at Collin College. Had her for 2 developmental classes as well as College Algebra. She rocks them all!!
very good teacher would recommend her to everyone. very funny!!!!
Jumper is the BEST math prof you could ever ask for! Makes math clear and easy to learn. She is a joy in class and makes sure everyone leaves happy (because we all know math is UGH!). If you're unsure about math, TAKE JUMPER!!
Best professor I've ever had, I was terrified of math before taking Jumper but took her for 305, 310, and 1314 and did really well. She has plenty of "Jumperisms" to help you remember things and she shows you multiple ways to approach solving a problem so you can decide what works best for you. Tests are not extremely hard if you do your work.
funny jokes every day, quotes movies and shows. tests are over notes that she gives in class, shows up to her classes early and writes her lecture problems on the board then does all of them that she can, doesn't always finish (only if there are a lot of questions asked). gives you formulas during and allows you to ask her questions during the test
Very helpful and very passionate about the subject. def. recommend !She will make math fun and easy for you even if math is your hated subject (like me) just remember to attend class.
She is an awesome professor. She explains each section better than the book shows. She is always helpful when someone doesn't understand. She really makes Math fun to learn.
i hate math. i decided to take her class because i heard great things about Jumper.. and im so glad i took her class. she is very easy, explains well, and makes funny jokes. will def take her again for college math
She is the BEST professor I have ever had. She goes over the material well and makes sure you understand. She also brightens your day and always makes the class laugh with her silly jokes. I wish she could teach all of my classes! TAKE HER CLASS! YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!!!!!
She's is a formonimal teacher i highly recommend her for all people to take her if you want to understand math.
Prof Jumper was amazing and she really helped my math skills improve!
You are missing out if you do not take Jumper. She really wants her students to succeed and walk out of the classroom unafraid of algebra. I was so scared to take this class but got an A! She So ROCKS!!!
love her.
Best teacher I've ever had. I started college hating math but I've taken 2 of her classes and she does everything to make you understand it but you have to do your homework when she says to or you'll fall behind. I highly recommend her to everyone!
Very Helpful, mupltiple classes now with her. Great analogies that help you rememeber always willing to help.
Professor jumper is the best teacher ever. On her test if you are stuck on the question she will help and most likely give you the answer.
Jumper is phenominal! I am taking her now for college algebra but had to get through 310. she makes math bearable with the way she explains things just makes it click. I adore her. If math is not your forte, definitely take her. I changed my entire schedule to coordinate taking her classes.
Prof. Jumper is amazing!!! I took pictures of her notes on the board. She is super clear, organized and actually cares! There were no surprises with her. She actually made math fun for me to learn.
She is my favorite professor she is so helpful and explains everything in clear detail. I will defiantly take one of her classes again if I need to.
she is very good
SHE IS VERY GOOD....
I had been struggling with math for two years. Finally passed my TSI and enrolled in her class because I read her reviews on here. Everyone was right! Shes AMAZING! I finally passed math thanks to her!! She explains really well and is always reminding you not to give up. I would definitely take her again if I needed more math in my degree.
Professor Jumper is a great professor i have ever seen. If you are struggling math like me and want to learn math, Take her class and you won't regret it. Her lecture, review, and homework will prepare you for the test. She is also willing to help you after class. I wish if she teaches statistics.
Absolutely love her! She's great!
She's a great professor, who knows how people generally think about math, so she does what she can to make math fun. We laughed a lot in her class!
Jumper was a great teacher. Took summer course and got a good grade. She gives quizzes on homework at the beginning of each class. Goes through material to make sure you understand and responds to emails quickly. She is also available to go over any questions, quiz, test, or lab material before class.
Fall 2015- Math 1314; She is totally awesome, her class is definitely not boring. If you participate in class , do your homework and come to class . You will pass. If you have questions she will help you during business hours & after class, the choice is yours if you really want to do well in her class.
Absolutely loved professor Jumper!!! Definitely made math enjoyable! Just do the work and reviews and you should be good!
She's an absolutely amazing teacher who is always energetic and enthusiastic. She's very approachable and always willing to help you out. She'll even help you out on tests, too. This class is also super easy. She kind of "dumbs down" the material so getting an A in this class is no problem. If you have trouble with math, definitely take her.
I am Math-challenged. Always have been. I've been taking developmental Math for almost 6 years. Jumper has been the only professor that explained math in a way that i could actually understand. The light bulb finally turned on! I made a B in a class that i normally would have had to re-take because i failed it the first time. TAKE HER CLASS!
Shes super easy and hilarious!!!! Would definitely take her again! Homework is not mandatory. Tests are graded within a day and posted. Class is easy. Good teacher. Gives so much extra credit. Super chill. Her class sometimes goes over the time limit. Shes pretty. Makes the tests. Just pick her, I promise you will love her. Easy A just dont skip!
She's fabulous when it comes to explains assignments in detail. She uses multi colored markers to show you step by step how things are done. Not much given for extra credit. Only grades labs and tests so grades are weighted heavily. She's very direct and can be a bit snippy but over all knows her material.
Never have I ever made higher than a C in a math class. With her help, I got an A+. She really does want you to pass & will help you reach your goals. Homework is optional, but do it. She asks for feedback with every problem so you do not get lost & relates it so well to real life. Take Jumper & do the work, there is no reason you won't pass.
Easy grader! Test were not hard at all, just go over the review. Best prof. ever! Took her in Summer and got a high A on a final. She really cares about her students.
Took Jumper last semester & now that I'm in math w/ a different prof. I miss her teaching style like crazy. She's enthusiastic about math which makes you not bored to death & is constantly making sure you understand. She's extremely easy to follow along w/ & knows what she's talking about. Wish there were more professors like Jumper, take her!
She makes learning algebra fun. She takes the time to help you. I would highly recommend her to anyone taking intermediate algebra/developemental math.
Really easy class, and I usually suck at math. Definitely has some wise remarks but she is just a very real person. 9/10 times cracks me up with whatever she has to say. Extra credit was also a life saver.
Professor Jumper was an amazing teacher! I would totally take her again if I could. I enjoyed her personality and her teaching style!
Best Math professor. I took her for Cal I and totally pleased with her lectures. Very caring and knowledgable.
While attendance isn't mandatory, it is highly recommended. Class is fun and Jumper is super nice. She try's to keep math interesting. Do NOT have your phone out in class. She is a little overly particular about showing all your work. She always makes sure everyone understands before moving forward. Great teacher!
Loved taking Jumper as my professor. I had taken a math class before with someone else and I had failed it but with Jumper, she actually made the work interesting and made me look forward to coming to class. She can have a small temper sometimes, but then again we had an 8:30 am class. Would highly recommend her for any math course.
Best Maths teacher i have ever had. She is awesome, i hate maths but thanks to her teaching methods i was able to make it greatly. Make sure you go through her reviews and you won't regret. I wish i had her again.
I had to take her class my first semester of college for a remedial class. She is very good at turning students who aren't math people into math people. Trust me, I was one of them. I would absolutely take again. Very generous grader. Tests are like the review. Jumper always makes sure students understand material before she passes the test out.
Calculus is a very hard subject but she is willing to help as much as she can. She is always in her office hours and is so nice and loves the subject. She teaches the content in different ways because everyone has a different learning style. She offers a lot of extra credit!
Jumper is by far the best algebra teacher I've ever had! I would take her for all of my math courses if I could! Shes funny and makes seemingly random jokes but they wind up helping you in the long run. Study the study guide!
Jumper was GREAT !! she is so caring & i wish I could take her again !! She uses great analogies to help you understand!! I recommend her !
Professor Jumper was AWESOME. I was super nervous about this class but she made things very clear. The labs were the toughest part for me (12 labs) She gives lots of extra credit opportunities that can be applied to test grades so take adavantage of that! The final was cumulative which was a lot to shove into one test in my opinion. Overall awesome
Very tough grader, no multiple choice exams and counts half off for every little thing. Has an attitude and gets frustrated when the students are not understanding things quickly. Would not recommend if you dont excel in math already.
Professor Jumper knows her stuff, and makes sure you know it too. As long as you show up to class, listen to lecture, do the homework, and do the labs, you will get a good grade. She makes sure you get the most out of class time by pre-writing all of the notes so all you have to do is print them out before class. You don't have to memorize formulas
I absolutely loved Jumper! She cares so much about her students and her job. If you pay attention in class, take good notes, and do the homework you will succeed in this class. If you choose to skip class and not pay attention, you will not do well. I was very pleased by Jumper, and highly recommend taking her class (must try hard though) :)
Way to out of control. Does not know how to be a teacher. Tries to be somewhat funny but fails and is also very rude to students for no reason.
Tries to be funny but fails very very badly. Calls out students in the middle of class. Very rude at times. Gets mad if no one understands.
Brandy was an ok professor. She gets off topic A LOT wasting class time and blaming the class for it... you need to show up for class pay attention and PRACTICE in order to excel in this class. She does make sure you completely understand whats going on. She gets mad with you having your phone out and using it. She does know her material though
Tough Grader and most of the times disrespectful. Her tests are tough and her reviews are apples to oranges when compared to the test. Her lectures are confusing and totally different than the textbook. So if you want a good grade in this class, then do not take her.
I think Jumper is a good prof but she talks too much, wasting valuable class time. She gets on to us if we don't respond to her, even if it's something obvious. To get a good grade you HAVE to show up and put in effort. It is NOT an easy class. That's not her fault. We do use the textbook, but only for hw, and you can get it super cheap
I took 1324 in fall and 1325 in spring, for reference I am not strong in math and made a B in both classes. Classes are lecture oriented with note templates that you print off and bring to class to fill while she teaches. She truly cares about her students and is willing to put in the time. Tests and labs make up majority of grades.
I don't know where the negative reviews are coming from. It is College level math, she teaches things the way she feels is easiest to learn, & tries to keep you engaged with humor. I took her online during quarantine, recorded lectures, homework, 12 labs, 4 tests, & exam. Honorlock required for exam only. Just put in the effort & go to office hours
COVID-Changed to online. Shes Funny, She is fair and gives you second chances to improve scores on Tests and Labs. The subject (Calculus) is hard but if you follow her lectures, take notes and really do the homework you should do fine. Be organized because you will reference old notes to solve problems. Use MyMathLab "help me solve this examples"
Jumper is an amazing Professor. She has a great sense of humor and will stay with you in her office for as long as it takes to get all your questions answered AND THEN shoot the breeze. She is a solid choice for Algebra and Calc.
IF YOU STRUGGLE WITH MATH SHE IS YOUR PERSON. Such an amazing lady that cares about her students. She will work with you and is very passionate about teaching. Jumper breaks down anything you do not understand until you get it. Obviously will have work but nothing crazy. I will be taking another one of her classes next semester. 10/10
Prof Jumper is Awesome! Calc 2 is not an easy class, but she is patient and understands the way a student thinks. She is open to questions and helping students understand. She is hilarious and a very caring person. I definitely recommend her! She is the BEST professor i've had!
I LOVE HER!! She is so phenomenal and she truly loves her classes and students. Her personality is amazing and she is always full of joy and happiness. I have never seen her mad or annoyed. Please take her!!
SHE IS SO AMAZING AND FUNNY. Heavy on homework but not super hard if you work on it.
NOOOOOOOOOO. Horrible teacher. Will talk your ear off in a lecture and then not respond to emails.
Rude for no reason
professor jumper was a really good teacher. Although I was confused most of the time, I still passed. she does have homework on every chapter and they will take you some time, but overall not a bad class, she was so upbeat at 8:30 in the morning. Also if you are not a morning person, I would recommend not taking this class at 8:30 am lol
Hilarious and very charismatic. This was by far the best math teacher i have had and would take again if i could. Makes business calculus seem way easier than what i had anticipated.
Professor Jumper has been wonderful this semester. She is very good at making sure you understand the material and are prepared for the tests. She doesn't ask much of her students all she wants is for her students to show up and pay attention. 10/10 recommend taking her class.
Jumper is the professor you want if you struggle with math! She breaks down the material in a way that is easy to digest until you understand! She also makes the class entertaining with her sense of humor! She wants you to succeed, all she asks is for you to try your best. Homework can be hard but is extremely helpful for learning the material!
This teacher is really awesome, she's sweet and likes to laugh and have fun while teaching; which is great, usually math is a heavy subject, she really does her best to simplify it. I would definitely recommend her.
Jumper is an engaging professor who makes business calculus digestible. The class requires effort, but she provides helpful office hours and resources like Unstuck AI to support students. With active participation, the material clicks, and a good grade is within reach.
Great professor
Online 3 months math class. HW, lab, and Test all on Pearsons. Take her if you're UTD students over the summer.
Professor Jumper explains math in a really simple way that's easy to follow. She's patient, organized, and always willing to help if you don't understand something. Her class is very fair and she genuinely wants students to succeed.
This professor is one of the best I have had throughout my whole education. I took an online class, gives all lectures, answer keys, and notes. All assignments and tests are on Pearson w/o honorlock except final exam. I had to have an unplanned surgery during this course, and she was so kind and caring, no worries about coursework! She is amazing!
