Sister Garner is great. Her class is a little harder than some, but she is very helpful and usually has five+ minutes after class for any questions you want to personally ask. She gives lots of resources and is just a really nice lady. Ive never been good at math and only barely passed her class, but I would definitely recommend her. Great Lady!
Sister Garner was, friendly, approachable, gave extra credit, and wants you to succeed in her class. She usually ends class a little early so you can work on homework or leave. She does give busy work from the book, but the answers are all in the back or she gives you the copies of the book with the answers. I'd take another class from her.
Sister Garner is awesome! She does expect you to work but she is always there to help. She will even work with you on your grade if you're not happy with it! Totally recommend her!!
Awesome Teacher and I hate math!
She is an amazing teacher! I have never gotten more out of a math class, she clarifies everything so that you understand it, and gives you tons of opportunities to pass the class. I would take every class from her if i could.
Math is definitely not my strong suit but Sis. Garner was amazing. She is more than willing to help you any time you need her. She is patient, kind and can teach EXTREMELY efficiently. If your taking Real World MATH I highly recommend this teacher.
Awesome class, thoroughly enjoyed learning. made math easy for me.
Very helpful teacher! You need to keep up with the work, which isn't abnormally a lot. Tons of extra credit opportunities. If you keep up with the daily work (which really isn't a lot), you'll definitely score an A. She keeps things simple and organized. She'll work with you if you need help.
Great Teacher. I suck at math, and I still managed to get an A in the class. A little bit of work, but she's always willing to help.
Best math teacher I've ever had! She really tries to help you understand. Always is willing to help!
She was a very helpful teacher who took the time to make sure everyone understood the subject we were studying. Recommend any class taught by her!
She is very helpful and made math enjoyable. High recommended!
I loved this class and the teacher! Sister Garner was so helpful during the class period, and also was very offering of her time outside of class as well. She made me want to go to class, because she made the outline to her class very easy to understand, and she gave many extra credit opportunities. I would highly recommend her for this class.
very helpful! easy to work with
She is really truly the best teacher ever. For some people math is the worse thing ever, and she can change that. she explains things so clear and straight forward. She makes the class so fun and easy.
I would NOT recommend taking this as a hybrid class, she tends to rush through things that she thinks we can figure out on our own but we can not. But she is clear when answering when you have a question and a kind person
I did her hybrid class, but it wasn't that hard (but I'm pretty good at math). Willing to help you whether by email or phone & She's good at explaining things; she really strives to care about her students. As far as the pre-quizzes, she expects you to look at the back of the book. I'd say definitely take her. she's pretty easy, and pretty awesome.
I loved Sister Garner! She is so helpful and willing to take time after class to review material. I found the tests were more tricky than they needed to be, but there's sufficient time to prepare and study beforehand. Overall, a very fair and friendly teacher!
I took this class hybrid but Sister Garner made it very easy. She was super helpful and caring. She provided everything you need to know. She provides everything step by step so it is really hard to fail. Super sweet and helpful!
Absolutely love Sister Garner! So sweet and helpful. She will do anything she can to help you succeed.
Sister Garner is an amazing teacher and person! I loved attending her class. I took the hybrid class (1 90-minute class per week) and was amazed at what she could fit in during just 90 minutes. For my learning style, the way she explained was extremely clear, more so than any math teacher I've had. She cares and is always willing to help.
I would not recommend to take the hybrid class, she didn't teach very well and it didn't help having the class only once a week. She rushed through all the material and didn't teach you everything you were expected to know. I studied for hours before the tests, and felt very well prepared, but when I received my score, it was not what I expected.
Sister Garner is great! I took the Harris class and she does a great job of using the hour and a half to the max. She does a good job relating it to the real world and is very down to earth about it.
Hybrid class. I struggle with math and this course went too fast for me. all homework was due online. Test reviews were not updated to current tests. Helpful teacher, but I really struggled. You have to be VERY willing to learn to do well. don't put off homework or projects.
I really enjoyed her class. It was a retake from Brother Cameron for Math for the Real World, but she placed it in much simpler terms. Her idea of how she broke the class down was much better and easier to understand. She was quick to get back to me on some of my questions.
She is the best!! She wants you to succeed in this class. Sister Garner goes out of her way to make sure you understand the material and she makes class fun. I took the Hybrid class and it was easy. For the Excel projects you can turn them in early and she will grade them and let you re-do it before the due date.
She's a great teacher. She will explain how to do whatever you need to know. It's not a great math class. You won't use much of it after this class unless your doing accounting, then you should really pay attention. The tests allow you to use a little note card, so remembering everything isn't necessary. Just do the work and you should pass.
She is absolutely the easiest math teacher you can take! She allows 3 retakes on each quiz with unlimited tries on the homework. You're allowed to correct projects and turn them in again for full credit. She removes one score out of the 5 exams so I didn't even have to take the final since I did well on the first 4.
I LOVED Sister Garner. Nicest professor ever. I wish that I could take a class from her every semester. As long as you do all the homework and understand the review before taking the test, you will do great.
I hardly ever showed up. She's a really nice lady though and is always there for you. Assignments are a breeze, you have unlimited chances within the deadline. Tests are easy, since you can bring a notecard. It's a great class, and you have the option to pace yourself. Hardly used the textbook.
Math has never been my favorite subject, however this class was a breeze. She understood that for most people it would be easy, however she still made sure to tailor her teaching style to those who were struggling (which weren't many). She made class interesting and was very nice. The tests were identical to the pre-tests, which she tells you.
I was not excited to take this class at all, but it is one of my favorite classes now. She teaches clearly, helps when you need it, and prepares you for your exams and projects. She has extra credit projects and some grades are dropped at the end of the semester. She is so sweet and kind and just an awesome lady! I didn't buy the textbook.
One of the nicest people ever! She cares so much about her students and is always there to help. Take her class!
Loved Sis. Garner! FDMAT108 is basically a review of things you learned in high school with a few new things added in. She is so willing to help you, she does everything to help you pass, if you need it- it's not hard though! So sweet and genuinely cares about her students. I wish she taught other classes so I could take from her again!
Sister Garner is an amazing teacher. She really helps you understand the basics of math. I finished with a 100% in the class! The practice tests are the exact same as the test but the test has less questions and the numbers are switched up. Super easy to pass as long as you pay attention and study. She is super kind as well and is willing to help.
Sister Garner is pretty good and reasonable. If you struggle with math then I would definitely suggest going tot the tutor. It's free and easy! once you find one you like you should go very week and you will definitely get an A.
She is a really amazing teacher. Sister Garner has really helped me understand math.
Great teacher and you could go without the textbook but it does help with the online quizzes. I would recommend sharing with a friend or roommate.
Sister Garner is an excellent math teacher. She explains the material in a way that is easy to understand. She is always willing to help you with any questions. This class has projects every other week or so, they are a little confusing, just follow the video tutorials. Two hw assignments each week, not too hard though.
Sister Garner was an amazing teacher! I really enjoyed her class. She is very considerate and really cares about her students succeeding. She is very accesiable outside of class to help you with any problems, concerns, or questions you may have. Lots of extra credit, and some low scores are dropped at end of term! Take a class from her no regrets!
Sister Garner is the best! She makes Math so much easier to understand. She is very generous about giving a lot of grades, and you have opportunity for extra credit. She makes class really fun and makes you very prepared for tests.
Sister Garner is a great teacher. She really explained everything so well. I'm bad at math and I did well in this class.
Sister Garner is a real Gem. It's clear she loves all of her students and is there to help you succeed! I've always disliked math, but I found myself enjoying her class and her passion for helping the student. If you express concern with your grade, she's very willing to help you bring it up. I love her and wish she could teach all my math classes!
I struggled with this class and teacher. She moves fast and there is TONS of homework (Due M,W,F). There are 5 hugs tests during the semester. If you don't pass the final, you will fail the class. There were so many students in class it was hard to get time for her to help and her hours outside of class are very limited. She wants you to succeed.
Sister Garner Is an amazing teacher. The class is pretty simple once you start getting the flow of things. None of the assignments are really confusing and if you are confused she can easily be contacted for aid. I do not consider myself to be proficient in math but she made the class fun and simple. In reality she has it down to a science.
Sister Garner is a great teacher. She taught the concepts very well which made the homework and tests easy. After just doing the practice test, you're ready for the test. She is super nice and is very willing to help out if you have questions. If you are happy with your grades on the four unit tests, you don't have to take the final.
Sister Garner is super sweet and really helpful! There are prep quizzes every monday but the answers are straight out of the book, every wednesday you have an easy project due with tutorial videos to help, and every friday you have homework due. Lots of easy assignments but not too bad. I would definately reccomend
Sister Garner is a very good teacher! She makes math a lot easier. If you struggles with math then take it from her. She will help you with projects as well if you have any questions. She is easy to talk to and is willing to help.
She is a great teacher! She is enthusiastic about what she teaches. All of the homework, projects, quizzes, and tests deadlines were clearly explained in her syllabus. She followed her syllabus really well and had us do practice tests that really helped prepare us for the tests. She responds promptly to emails. Great teacher!
Sister Garner was a really amazing professor. She could explain math concepts well and make them easy to understand. She wants her students to succeed and is always willing to help. This was honestly my favorite class this semester and I am not a math person at all. The textbook reading takes some time as does the homework, but it is very doable.
Everybody loves Sister Garner. She gives very good lectures and explains the material very well. That's coming from a guy who struggled with high school math. She's very caring and prepares her students very well for the tests. She's always willing to help if you just ask. She loves participation! You will love this class!
She is very caring and is very easy to get a hold of. She answers questions clearly and is understanding when there is a situation. She gives opportunities to fix your work if you turn it in early and she notices something is wrong with it.
Very sweet teacher you can tell she cares about her students. The class, in general, was dumb. My year was when the new math-108 came out and everyone was still getting used to it.. especially her, so hopefully she'll have it more figured out for the future. Good teacher, easy homework, easy projects. Would recommend her.
I took an early class from her and thought Id fall asleep but shes very energetic and it makes me want to learn math. Shes very caring and a super sweet teacher! Theres a lot of homework online
Take Sis Garners class! It's practically impossible to not pass! She is so energetic and kind. She is literally so accessible and helps you out on anything that you need! The overall class material is easy. You have homework due Monday, Wednesday and Saturday nights but I always finished at most within an hour.
Sister Garner is an absolute gem. She makes math as stress free as possible and doesn't waste your time in class. If your done early you get to leave early and she really wants you to understand that what she's teaching has real life value. She is really kind and funny and one of the best math teachers I've had in a while. Take her!!!
Sis Garner is amazing. She cares so much about her students and is one of the most accessible professors I've ever experienced. You can email, call, and even text her about homework problems. I'd recommend her to anyone taking math. She is awesome, you'll enjoy having her.
Sister Garner is an overall amazing professor. She is available at any time that you need help with your homework. She really helps you understand anything you need help with and is willing to help you through all challenges. Math 108 is pretty easy as is but she makes it a little bit more enjoyable. :)
Sister Garner is one of the best teachers I've had at BYU-I. She is kind, funny, & really wants you to succeed. If you ever need help on the homework assignments and you can't get to campus, you can take a picture of what you're stuck on and she will help you over email at any time. HW and reading is online and is pretty easy, just takes some time.
I love Sis Garner! She is so kind and wants all of her students to succeed! She tries her best to get to know you personally. She provides a few opportunities for extra credit, but you probably won't need it. There is easy homework due 3 times a week. There are 3 tests and an optional final. She is an excellent teacher and is very understanding!
I absolutely loved Sis. Garner, she was so amazing! Since it is a required course I had to take it, but I am so glad I took it from Sis. Garner. She is a really good teacher and explains the concepts very well. She gives out her personal information so you can reach her at any time about a homework problem. She genuinely cares about her students.
I really liked Sister Garner! This class was a breeze, and she made the material easy to understand. She was always willing to help if you needed it.
I don't enjoy math classes but I loved taking this class from Sister Garner! She really is the best. It is easy to contact her outside of class and she gives students lots of opportunities to raise their grade or revise assignments and turn them in again. I would definitely take a course from her again!
Sister Garner is INCREDIBLE! I am someone who absolutely detests math, but she made it understandable and relevant. She was always real with us, and we (or at least I) thought she genuinely cared about each and every student. She's super nice with grades (dropping bad ones, etc.), and I actually looked forward to a math class!
Professor Garner is a GODDESS! She is helpful, kind, and knows her stuff. Class grading and expectations are made clear and the schedule does not change. She is AMAZING! I thought I hated math until I took this class. She makes everything relatable, no busy work it all applies, and reviews are on point. Don't take it from anyone else.
I love sister garner. She's by far one of my favorite teachers. She teaches really well and if you don't understand something she will make sure you understand it. even if you think it's a dumb question she doesn't make you feel that way. make sure you go to class and participate, there's participation quizzes at the end of every week.
Sis Garner is the most amazing math 108 teacher I have ever had. I struggle with dyscalculia and I've taken this course 4 different times with 4 different teachers. Only Sis Gardner was able to really explain and be patient in a way that other teachers cant. She is truly amazing. If you really struggle with math or concepts like math, then take her
As someone who has always been horrible at math, I loved that Sis. Garner wants to make sure that nobody fails. She will go out of her way to help everyone understand the material. She will even give you her number so you can get homework help outside of class. She is also just such a sweetheart and always had a smile.
I took a zoom class from Sister Garner, an basic math class. She is great! She understands that math classes seem pointless to a lot of students, so she focuses on what is applicable to real-world situations. This might have been the best math class I've ever had. The lectures were somewhat lengthy (normal for a zoom class).
She is super accessible, she gave us her number and said to just text her our questions and she'll help explain it to us. She talks a lot and fast so you don't feel bored in class but you don't get lost because in part of her talking so much she is explaining it really well and answering everyone's questions until you get it.
Sister Garner has been teaching for years, so she really knows the content well and makes it easy to understand. I struggled with math from elementary school through high school, but this class was easy for me. She is very kind and will get to you quickly if you need help.
I LOVE SISTER GARNER! She's so patient with everybody and somehow relates every single lesson to the Gospel in a way that I could never think of on my own, but it somehow makes total sense! She's there alongside you for every lesson, but you are able to go at your own pace if you're catching on quicker than others.
The class is basically a review of high school math. It is very fast paced though, you have to pay attention all the time or else you will get lost. If you are willing to put in the effort for an A you will get it. I asked a couple questions after class and made an appointment with a tutor once or twice. Sis. Garner was always very willing to help.
She is a great teacher. Very enthusiastic and wants you to succeed!
Sister Garner is a great teacher. She is really nice and she is very clear on assignments. She wants you to succeed so she is there to help you. She even gives you her personal number so you can text her when stuck on a problem. She is really helpful and will answer any question you have.
Sis. Garner is a good teacher, and she gives a lot of extra credit and make-up opportunities. Can be confusing and talks kinda fast sometimes, but otherwise explains things pretty well. Shes accessible outside of class via text/email, and always willing to help. Hw is consistent but not horrible if you stay on top of it.
Teacher is supper unkind and unwilling to help when needed the most, Please don"t choose her save your self from a semester of head-aces.
If you are not white this teacher is not for you, she will not treat you as equal as the other students .Take a different professor at the school where you will be helped and actually valued. She definitely plays the favorite student card and if you are not white it is not in favor to you. Not the schools fault great school bad teacher.
This is an awesome professor! She takes a time out of her day to respond questions quickly and make sure everyone is doing okay. Her class is fun and pretty useful, made me learn a lot of stuff. I totally recommend her, she does fun activities that are relevant to the lecture and internalizes the material that way.
Sister Garner is so sweet! I'm really bad at math so this class was difficult and I had to go to the tutor a lot but Sister Garner really wants you to succeed. She was very helpful. Again, this class was difficult and most of the lecture was online so that was annoying. I wish she would do more during her lectures other than reading a presentation.
Sister Garner is a very good professor with tons of experience teaching. She will help you no matter who you are. Class is straight forward. Just do your readings and pay attention and it should be and easy A.
Amazing professor! She was very well organized and taught the class very efficiently!! I would recommend her highly for anyone wanting to take this class. She is easy to get ahold of and she is very clear about grading and homework requirements so there is no confusion! Homework is moderate and exams are not difficult.
I had class with her quite a while ago, but she was so so sweet! She was overall very helpful and super kind. She brought us a treat at the end of the semester which was so thoughtful. When I had to miss, I was able to reach out as she had given us her number to be able to text her if we had any questions on homework or anything of the sort.
I love Mrs. Garner!! She is an awesome teacher that really cares about her student's success. Her lectures are super helpful and easy to learn from. Would HIGHLY recommend taking from her if you can! Also, her grading is very generous and is not a class that takes up too much time outside of class.
Sister Garner is the best! She is super nice and was always there to help me out if I had any questions, even outside of class! I highly recommend this class, the workload was less than I initially thought. I would focus on doing the homework because it prepares you for the tests and holds the majority of points.
Sister Garner is so sweet and amazing to work with! I got a lower grade because I struggle with math, but she was always so encouraging and even was available to walk through harder problems with me. The homework was less than I thought and she grades fairly.
Ok I SUCK at math but Sister Garner is seriously the best teacher ever. You can always redo assignments or even turn them in late. She is a super great teacher, and she is fun to listen to. The class really isn't hard and I actually passed all of her tests (I've never passed a math test before). I literally love her and the class is soooo easy!
I am awful at math, but Sister Garner explained things very well. We had to do a lot of Excel sheets, but she was more than willing to help when needed. Her lessons were interesting and helpful.
She is very lively, quirky and fun. She makes classes super enjoyable and you can learn lots. It honestly isnt a hard class is you go into it with determination.
Sister Garner is an incredible teacher! I was able to contact her very easily when I had questions and she was so understanding! She genuinely cares about your success and growth. Math 108 is a useful class. It is one of the most enjoyable math classes I have taken spoken as someone who does not enjoy math generally.
Sister Garner is the most caring teacher I've had. She cares not only about how you are doing in her class, but how your other classes and your life are going. She has us do problems on the board with our groups and we get to do the quizzes with that group. There is a lot of homework, but the repetition really does help with learning the concepts.
