Unfortunately the only thing good about her is her personality (if she likes you). I think she's just ready to retire; she doesn't like going through steps (important for Calculus) she confuses herself and is just kinda lazy. I'm afraid I couldn't recommend her especially if you need extra help. But do the homwork and read the book-you'll do fine.

Autrey tries hard to help others succeed: she gives out study guides, she takes questions, she'll re-do things if you ask her. But she just cannot teach. These concepts are really easy to understand if they are taught correctly. So if you're stuck with Autrey and you totally lost, go to tutoring. It really does help.
