rigid

she makes caluculus so easy!!

CALC 3 is hard but she explained it very well. She smiles, she's friendly, and is very patient. I highly recommend her on any math class!

Expects a lot from students, but really helps you out. Provides practice exams. Loves to quiz, so you really have to stay on top of it, every day.

Dr. T. is the best math instructor at City college hands down. If you can take her do it. It would be a huge mistake to not take this instructor. She is incredible, phenominal, and extremely nice.

Best Math teacher hands down I have ever had. Is she married?

She is the best teacher you will ever take. Her lectures are great, practice tests are very similar to tests. TAKE DR. THOMAS!!!!

I love Dr. T. She is the best. Take Dr. T, you will learn a lot.

If you like using notes, calculators, and open text for your quizes, test and exams take Math 119 with her, but not Math 116. She is a really good instructor. Hands out review sheets for tests.

Very tough but outstanding teacher. Very helpful, really cares that you understand the material. Quizes every day, tests are hard. She's also cute.

Excellent - I hate Math but actually enjoyed this class. SHe is enthusiastic and helpful - definately the best Math teacher City has.

She's great at presenting the material, but deducts way too many points for repeated errors, even within a problem. So, your best bet is to NOT show all your work if you're rushed for time. Her lectures are worth it, though. She's patient and thorough

Dr. T rocks. She's tough, but fair. She was able to explain the material extremely well, she definately knows her stuff. I would totally recommend any of her classes.

Wonderful teaching style; explains everything and breaks complex ideas into common English;is consistent. Grading, however, is unfair: pays way too much attention to details better left to earlier math. Show LESS work and get docked less for careless err

Dr. T is an excellent, amazing teacher! She is very hard working, dedicated, and caring. She grades quickly and answers questions thoroughly. She is warm, caring, and approachable. I love Dr. T's teaching!!! You will love her, too!!!

Don't take during the summer if you planning on taking more than one class. Quiz everyday. She has her class favorites and skips a lot of steps when solving problems. Doesn't always explain everything. Doesn't curve, doesn't give much partial credit.

You will not find a better math professor than Dr. Thomas. She's very clear during her lectures and very helpful in her office hours. Expect the material to come at you at a fast rate since it's over summer. Overall, the course was challenging.

makes everything simple almost no need to read the book. quizes everyday but tests are easy. highly recommended. one of the best at city.

One of the best teacher's I've ever had. Take a class with Dr. T. if you can.

if you're like me, dropping math each semester cause you hate the class or the prof is just as clueless as you are in math... then take DR. T! She's very funny and the colored chalk does help between steps! Daily quiz... NO BIG DEAL only 1 PROBLEM and is the EASIEST from whatever section the day be4

Dr. T. is the best Math professor I have ever had. She explains things clearly and thoroughly. She's simply the best that City College has to offer!

Dr. T makes math EASY and FUN. She is the guardian of integrity and the safekeeper of fairness.

Dr. T is an extremely excellent, outstanding teacher. She is kind, helpful, teaches well, answers questions thoroughly, and grades quickly. I feel lucky to have had her as a teacher. She is by far one of the very best teachers I have ever had. Dr. T is amazing!!!

The best professor I've had at City College and the best math teacher I've had ever, anywhere. Extremely clear and patient. Excellent reviews before tests. Open book, open note, open calculator. If you do the homework it's hard to do poorly.

I'm suspiscious that she might be writing her own ratings because she does not allow open notes, tests or calculators. She does the work on board too fast. treats students like children and has this sarcastic smile. she knows her stuff but I'd take someone else unless you are a selfdirected learner

Open note, open book, open calculator IS allowed by the Statistic class. I know that this is the only class that she has this policy with.

Open everything, but dont let that fool you! She goes over things a bit fast, but she's willing to go over something if its not understood. Theyre hard tests, and a quiz EVERYDAY, but you have the chance to drop your lowest test and two quizzes. Don't miss a class or youll fall behind! Good teacher!

She is really good, explains the topics really well. She allowes Open book, notes and calculator in her Statistics class. Tests are hard, even though you can have book and notes open, you need to study a lot. One take one test which is the hardest one! Nice person

Dr. T is great. She is very perky but she makes the teachings fun. She does grade pretty hard but I liked her! I'd recommend her if you want to learn. Quiz everyday so you can't miss a class but she has movies, treats and party favors!

Class itself was hard. She helped me throughout the whole class. She is very good teaching and having everyone comprehend the subject. Yes...Quizes given daily that helped when taking test once a week since I had to really know what the class the before was about. Also your Homework counts a little. very meticulis on GRADING TESTS/QUIZES...

you have to work in DR T's class, but she makes it worth it. the material is hard and it takes time to learn it. Keep up on homework, it's a major stress reducer. Her quiz/test questions are usually not too hard, but there is a lot of material in them. Best math teacher at City. Winner of Student Choice Award 2004/ 2005.

VERY EASY!! TAKE HER YOU'LL HAVE A LOT FUN AND PLUS IT'S EASY.

Dr T is an awesome math teacher. She is very helpful and I highly recommend her. Keep up with homework and don't miss classes very often (you will miss quizzes).

Great teacher. I don't think there is a better math teacher at city!

She's is laughing at you, not with you. A genuine heartless sadist. I have had her for 150, 151 & 252, Always got good grades, but beware! If your taking a REAL math course (not 119), go to Mesa! She will annihilate you unless your brilliant.

I think Dr. T is a fortunate addition to the staff at City College. She expects a lot out of you (Cell phone turned off, attendance) but also wants to see you succeed and even offers Extra Credit (unusual in Math). Cool teacher- she and Dr. Smith are the gems of the math department!

I had to drop this class at Mesa the previous semester because I was struggling. Dr. T was a breath of fresh air! She is enthusiastic and wants you to succeed. I don't like calculus, but I genuinely enjoy her class, I highly recommend it.

Looks are deceiving. She is an attendance and grade nazi. Miss two classes fail, and she counts for half classes missed. A quiz every class except test days. She nickel and dimes your grade to nothingness. If this is your only class and you don't work a full time job you can pass, but otherwise avoid her.

Dr. T is an EXCELLENT teacher.Very enthusiastic and she makes things look clear and easy by the way she explains them.I don't think there is another teacher like her.BUT yes she is very strict.She expects a lot from you.HARD grader!She will take off a point from your test if you don't dot your I's.Take her if you want to LEARN! Don't if ur lazy!

Dr. Thomas is hands down the best teacher at City College. She is demanding and truly teaches you math. She makes learning fun and interesting. If you really need to learn math any level, take Dr. T. Run don't walk to this professors class! You won't regret it.

Dr.Thomas is a great teacher. I took this class last semester and got an F. I have a B average in her class. She makes stats fun because she jokes around with her students. Take her if you want to understand stats and get a good grade. Very helpful. Worksheets and study guides are very very helpful.

This teacher is GREAT!!! I have taken Stats three times before this and I HATED IT. I actually learned in this class and I am currently holding a B average. This teacher is GREAT and I would recommend her to anyone who is struggling in Statistics. If you take good notes you will get good grades in this class.

Dr. Thomas is a great teacher. No curve balls on her tests and very fair grading. If you do the work you can get a good grade. Highly recommended!

Dr. Thomas, is a very fair and understanding teacher, not like some of the math teachers at City. She will help you understand the course until she is blue in the face. She has opened up difficulties for me in Math, but I did learn a great deal from her about Math 121. There's a quiz every class except on test days.

I work 40+ a week. Took 150 alone during the summer; easy. Took 151 with 3 other classes (14 units) in the fall; challenging. Daily homework, but if you do it you will have no problem with the daily quiz. Exams are challenging, but her review tests are outstanding. If you understand the review test, you should do fine on the exam. Best prof at City

She is the best math instructor I have ever met in life. She has a very efficient technique of teaching for the students to understand the subjects. She put a big effort to teach everyone what she knows. Extremely recomended .. God Bless Dr.T!! :)

No Comments

Orgonized, Very Comprehancible. Awsome grading system. Take her you won't be sorry. Just dont miss any school time.

The BOMB!!! She's great at explaining calculus to dumbasses like myself. I highly recommend her.

She is the best !!! She is not easy, but all you have to do is do your homework and then every class that she gives a quiz you will past...(usually 1-2 super easy questions). Calculus ain't easy, but she surely makes it like it is 2+2. Believe me if you are taking Calculus, just take her...I wish i could take all my math clases with her...

Took her Su' 06. She's aight but it was hard to focus because I lost my summer. However, when I did focus she was actually really good. She's hardcore organized and does everything she claims to (ringing phones). You get quizzes everyday which aren't necessarily difficult IF you did the homework. She offers EC and really wants you to do well.

66 ratings, possibly the most of any teacher here. Average ease of 2.6 ... even when you factor in the numerous times she rated herself ... that pretty much says it all.

Quizzes daily (1 or 2 very easy questions directly from the easier sections of the homework). Study guides for exams that are simply exams from the past and are very reflective of what will be on the actual exam. In addition, similar to the quizzes, the exams are generally the easiest questions from the homework assignments.

Best math teacher ever! she is very helpful before tests. If you miss a class you do get a bit lost since she goes over many things in one day. other than that she is great

An amazing professor who went above and beyond. All grades are posted on her own web site and she has amazing office hours. Very well organized and no surprises. She makes math a little more fun than it probobly should be! Great classroom teacher, just pay attention and ask questions!

If I take another math class, I want Dr T for my instructor.

Dr. T was my 'instructor' for the on-line course. She answered all of my e-mails quickly and made herself available in her office when I got too confused. The online classes are hard and you need to motivate yourself to keep up. She made taking the class as simple as possible.

shes a great teacher everything is clear with her gives you practice tests that are just like the problems on the real test...and complaining about her strictness on attendance??? that is lame because its math and you need to see it happening unless ur a genuis..

Thomas is a remarkable teacher. She is tough, but fair. If you want to become the best at math you'll ever be, take her course. You will have to work, but you'll end up knowing more than ever. I love every minute of her class. She's very relaxed, and she enjoys class participation. Don't be afraid to shout n when you see, n! she'll laugh.

Honesty I hate math. But she makes it very interesting and fun. I would have loved to take her for summer semester but unfortunatly she wont be teaching! Highly recommended!

Dr. T is awesome, very helpful and understanding. Very funny, so she makes learning fun. I absolutely hated math prior to taking her class. Now I see it as a challenge that I can master and she helped me earn those tools which will help me master it.

Great professor to approach and ask for help. Her tests are very easy, provided that you do all of the homework. She also offers lots of extra credit, which are all very easy to do. She's strict about cell phones ringing in class and will not hesitate to deduct points from your overall test scores. Her math nerdisms are also very cute. :)

She knows the material but goes through the lecture a little too fast for me and also strict with math notation. Really nice professor and is fair with grading. Say "its okay" alot. Overall, recommended

A Great online experience. Interactive videos,helpful hints and step by step walkthroughs through even the most difficult problems.It's all organized very well through Course Compass.Finally conquered my math phobia with this class, though it wasnt easy.Lots of studying,She stays on top of the boards, is very accessable,and offers extra credit.

I took her class online. The instructions were simple enough and she always answered her emails the same day that they were sent. During the course, she sends emails to check up on everyone or to announce that a certain test or hmwk assignment is due. But, on the final you need to score a 36/60, just remember to go to the tutorial center!

Doctor Thomas is a reliable teacher when it comes to leaching math. Whenever someone in class isn't clear on how to solve a problem she goes over it until the person gets it. Showing up in her class is vital, because missing a days work of notes will severely hurt you. But then again she is always willing to help during her office hours.

Thomas is pretty clear in her lectures. Very helpful during office hours. There is a quiz every class session (except test days). You need to keep up with the homework to do well on the quizzes. Attendance is mandatory. DO NOT TEXT, SURF THE WEB, or RECEIVE A PHONE CALL during lecture; she will take points off immediately from your quiz.

She is a super amazing teacher and always willing to go over anything you need help with! one thing for sure is she does not mess around with attendance.

BEST MATH TEACHER EVER!! i swear my whole class loves her! yes we have quiz's every day but we go over problems before and the quiz's are only 1 or 2 problems!! always goes over everything twice if you dont get it. enthusiastic about teacher and thats a plus! I never though id be rating a professor but she well deserves it! take her!!

Professor Thomas' online course is well-organized. All the due dates are strict. You will be working with Mymathlab program. Go to Study Plan section before Quizzes and Tests and review everything. This way you will do well on the tests. Tests are exactly like study plan. HW due every Saturday, Quizes or Tests -due every Sunday.

There is a simple formula: attend her class + take notes + do homework!!! (odd numbers at least) + ask her for help during office hours or at the beginning of every lecture = you will not be surprised what to expect on a quiz/test and you will get a good grade. Taking this class with professor Thomas is difficult, but it is definitely worth it! :)

She is an amazing professor. Her lectures help me can handle any problem from easy to hardest. Taking her class, studying hard, doing homework, reviewing lectures, having quiz everyday, and you will get A ^^

Great math professor. Enthusiastic and engaging. She wont let you slack your way to a passing grade, but if you're looking to actually learn the material you wont be disappointed. She may move a bit fast for some students, but if you go to her office hours regularly the pace shouldn't be a problem.

This woman knows to have fun with all her students. She keeps you aiming high. Quiz every class keeps you up to date. Office hours is one big study party.

The cheat sheet I made for the test in this class has proven to be an asset to my daily calculations. No better person to teach Diff Eqz, none other than Dr. T.

She was super nice and helpful. She gives out helpful practice tests that help you study for the actual test and she's always there to help.

hilarious, at times sarcastic ( in a funny way, not rude at all). 3 tests, 1 final, quiz every class meeting, no homework and 1 extra credit opportunity . very talented and SMART lady. text book is not mandatory but its a must have for your own good, lol.

Extremely nice teacher, very to the point. Quiz's every day, no homework (strongly recommended you do homework questions) and her office hours are a big study group. Type of teacher to guide you to the answer not solve it for you. Do homework problems, ask questions, be prepared for the quizzes, and attend all of her office hours and you'll be fine

Uses MyMathLab. One homework assignment and quiz per week, homework due Saturdays at midnight, quiz to be done by Sunday at midnight. Two chances per quiz/test!! Three tests, one on-campus final. For the final you get to use a cheat sheet, double sided! As long as you do the homework and learn the stuff, you'll be good to go!

Online class. Dr. Thomas gave quick responses to inquiries and was helpful in every way. She even submitted my issues with the goofy text to the publisher and copied me on the responses. I hope my 96 prof is as professional.

Dr. Thomas: Difficult professor lvl 100. Best Math teach @ City College. Best lectures by far A+. Entertaining class A+. Test are terribly difficult. :( She expects alot out of her Calc 3 students. If you want the A go take some other professor. If you are serious about Math and want to learn take Dr. Thomas. Many people have failed her. Beware.

Dr. Thomas test q's are not the worst I've had to deal with. Need to know you ln's and e's. Book homework is not turned un or graded. Test are 50%, in class exercises 5% (just show up for class), homework portfolio are done at end of class on board (easy 15%), final 30%. Nice grading system for gpa av.. Math is a pain regardless of the professor.

Easy class. Homework usually has 30-50 questions, then quizzes are usually around 20 questions. Due every Sunday.

Statistics is an awful subject, but she does a great job of making it less awful. Most of the work is done with calculators. She is hilarious and does a great job of explaining the material, and is extremely accessible outside class.
