I took Cassandra Fisher this summer ('15) for Math 105 and she absolutely made my summer term. I struggle with math but she somehow she laid it out there and made it so simple. I have an 85% going into the final and this is my first math class at a university. She expects HW but its due the exact same day each week. TAKE CASSANDRA FISHER FOR MATH!!

Professor Fisher is the best math instructor I have had in college. This course was extremely organized and her instructing pace never felt rushed nor slow. She makes an effort to know each of her 150 students understand. Tests were reasonably hard, but she allows a half sheet of notes. Wish I could take her for 106.

really clear communication.

Expect lots of homework and quizzes weekly. Despite large homework load I would recommend her simply because she is a really good teacher. You might have to spend more time on the class with her as the teacher but you'll leave it extremely knowledgeable.

She has a way of teaching that makes everything really understandable. Really takes the time to make sure that everyone is understanding the material. She was my favorite professor.

One of the better math professors Ive had. They were able to explain things very well on a one on one level when I went to office hours. Would recommend.

Cassandra is a good math teacher but she isn't really good at working with students. Our HW is assigned on Monday around 2 pm, and it's due Thursday at 12pm, which means we rush through it. She isn't flexible with it either. Not having HW on the weekends sucks. She also assigns lots of even numbers which means you can't check your answers.

Professor Fisher is a great teacher. She explains content thoroughly and gives lots of examples. She is easier to understand and seems caring. I'm math challenged and I was able to pass her class.

Fisher takes the complexities of calculus and makes it easy to understand. I've never her seen her have a bad day, and she's always ready to help (i.e. doing homework questions at the beginning of class). She is very welcoming and I was never afraid to talk to her. There were quizzes each week but they made it easy to understand the material.

Cassandra has been my favorite math teacher/professor I've had. She can be a tough grader on some things, but she makes math really clear. I like her note style a lot and she's easy to reach out of class.

Great teacher. Clear requirements. Better than the other professor for math 246.

I didn't love Fisher when I had her, but then I had some of the other math professors at UO. She is clear and organized. Her lectures make sense. There is a lot of homework, but it pays off. The material was hard so you have to do a lot of practice. One of the better math teachers I've had.

Cassandra is a very nice woman who does a good job of explaining the content. Not her fault math is the worst. She does a really nice printed note format that is extremely organized, helpful, and easy to follow along to.

She's a good teacher, but has really high expectations and gives a lot of homework and pretty hard tests. Overall, I think the difficulty of her classes overweighs the quality of her teaching. It's hard to get a good grade in her class.

Cassie was my favorite professor this term. She's clear about her expectations and directions. She's very clear on her explanations of problems and leaves a lot of class for if you have questions. A lot of the class is centered around group work. Additionally, she's really nice and approachable. Would recommend!

Professor Fisher is one of my favorite professors this term. She is really understanding about make ups and she is good at explaining the content. Sometimes the textbook homework is a lot more difficult than what we do in class but if you go to office hours she explains it well and helps walk you through it.

She takes her time in lecture to make sure the content is clear and understandable. You get extra credit when you get iClicker questions right, so make sure you pay attention and you'' do well in the class. Quizzes every week, but honestly they kept me on track to I didn't mind them.

Fisher is good, don't skip lectures or you won't understand what's going on, and don't be afraid to ask questions. Weekly homework packets and twice weekly WebWork. The weekly quizzes and packets aren't bad if you go to lecture, the webwork is challenging. I would recommend this class just make sure to not fall behind.

Good teacher, notes were clear and easy to understand. She posts lecture guides after class so you dont have to pay a TON of attention in lecture.

Prof. Fisher was very accessible outside of class during her office hours and through email. She definitely is one of the reasons I was able to complete the WebWork every week.

Professor Fisher is super good about answering questions when they come up in class. I've had her for math 247 and 246, and both classes are structured really similarly. One thing I really appreciate is how available she is, and the lecture guides she hands out. This is a tough class, and attendance is super important to not miss anything, though.

Calculus was so confusing for me in high school! I took Calculus for the Bio Sciences 246 and 247 with Prof. Fisher and she made calculus SO straightforward for me! Great teacher, shows respect for students, provides a manageable amount of work.

Calculus is definitely a tough subject but Professor Fisher made the material easy to understand and helped it seem very relevant to biological topics! There are weekly quizzes, but they are not difficult at all if you take notes and study. The exams are the same level of difficulty as quizzes so there are no surprises!

Cassandra was an amazing math teacher. I got a lower grade because I didn't apply myself as well as I should have but she is very concise with the way she explains concepts. She really wants you to do well and as far as math goes she is really great professor. If you want to do well in her class, if you apply yourself you will do great.

This class is really easy and all review if you paid attention in high school math, but if you don't know your algebra you will struggle. Professor moves fast through content because it should all be review of high school algebra but very helpful and patient during office hours. Extra credit for attendance and drops low quizzes. Notecard for exam.

Best math teacher I've had in years. Hard weekly quiz/Midterms killed my grade, but I honestly feel I learned a lot, Fisher truly cares about the good of the class. Her office hours are super helpful and she is always happy to give more problems/explanations. Recommend to anyone needing Calc. Take good notes her lectures are super helpful

I was afraid to take her class after seeing the reviews here, but after taking her class I can confidently say that the reviews are not at all similar to my experience. She explained everything thoroughly, was eager to help, and offered lots of extra credit. She made calculus feel easy. Only con - sometimes treats students like they are still in hs

She is always willing to help if you have questions

Good teacher, very difficult course.

Good professor for lecturing, arguably goes too slow and sometimes overcomplicates/explains problems. Required study time around 4 hours to do well on midterms, in class quizzes every thursday with three homework assignments due per week. good teacher, 4 classes per week, not overly difficult

Fisher was a good professor. I think she overcomplicates things but overall is clear and thorough in her lectures. Weekly quizzes and homework were honestly good to keep me on track. Class seemed a lot more difficult than I expected for "college algebra" and I went to tutoring for most of the homework. Overall a pretty good math professor!

Prof. Fisher offers a lot of extra credit for just participating with iClicker and she is great at explaining problems during the lecture slowly and thoroughly. Her course is structured very well and if you are willing to put in decent effort, I recommend taking this class.

Cassandra Fisher completely changed how I view calculus. I consistently got Ds on tests in high school and was crying over my homework each night. The way that she teaches the material just works so well for me. I got As on every test! It was insane how she managed to make such a difficult topic so approachable. Love u P. Fisher !

Professor Fisher is an excellent lecturer and a fair and considerate professor. Her office hours are extremely useful and I would definitely recommend going to them if you're at all having difficult with a topic. Her tests and quizzes are reasonable and she prepares us well for them, I would definitely recommend taking her.

I love her! She makes the class really easy and her teaching is very straightforward. Attendance in lectures is not mediatory but in discussions it is. Her tests are straightforward as well. She is easy to get a hold of and offers lots of office hours.

I'm seeing all of these poor reviews, but they seem to wrong! I'm someone who isn't really the smartest person, but this class felt fairly easy, as she explained everything thoroughly and well. Some reviews talk about how she complicates her lectures, but it's only to give the students a better understanding of the material. She's great!

Cassandra is such a smart, thoughtful instructor. She does not complicate things as much as it is said here. The things are helpful if you pay attention. I would not recommend skipping this class as you will miss A LOT of info and its difficult to catch back up. Her grading/assignments are very well organized and she was great at explaining math!

Ms. Fisher was a great professor and her lectures were easy to understand. She provides lecture guides before class and posts all of her notes on canvas. You have 1-2 weekly homework assignments, 1 weekly discussion worksheet, weekly quizzes, 1 midterm and 1 final. She gives you more than enough time to complete all of it. She is the best!

Professor Fisher was amazing! She is so sweet and this class is relatively easy. Consists of webwork assignments, 1 midterm and 1 final. She was an amazing teacher!

Dr. Fisher is a great math professor! She made concepts super easy to understand and posted lecture guides (blank and fully filled out) on Canvas in case you miss class or need more time to focus on an example. I really like how she color-codes her work so you can see where she's getting all of her numbers from.

I thought this class was easy and the lectures were clear. It's important to print her lecture guides to follow what she's doing in class, or through a tablet. Although I thought the class was easy, I know many students who struggled. I never went to her office hours but those who did said she was not very helpful.

Fisher is very straight forward with her teaching style and isn't afraid to go back and repeat herself when needed. Her guidelines of grading is also much more clear than most math classes.

Professor Fisher is a great math professor and someone who I hope to be in another class with. Her lectures are a little fast paced, but she is very willing to go back and repeat herself if needed. She is incredibly flexible and understanding, which is great for a student like me, who struggles with due dates and generally dislikes math. 5/5

Professor Fisher is a great math teacher. If you go to class, take notes, and pay attention to the material, you should have no difficulty getting at least a B. She makes things almost too simple at times. Extra credit is possible through clicker questions.

Casandra makes the lessons easier by writing in different colored pens, so you know how she did the problem. she has weekly quizzes on Fridays with her GEs, Joe was the best GE out of all of them. Her study guides for the midterms didn't match.

Professor Fisher lectures are clear, well spoken and taught at a reasonable pace. She teaches content in a digestible way making concepts clear and simple. She is kind and willing to help if reached out too. All assignments for this class are helpful in preparing you for the tests.

Fisher teaches lectures at a reasonable pace, notes are clear and easy to understand. I recommend printing out the lectures, making it easier to look back on. There are weekly homework assignments and a quiz at the end of the week. DO the practice reviews for exams plus you're allowed to have a notecard. Overall she's a great math professor!

Professor Fisher is a great, flexible professor if you prefer high-school-style classes. Color coding and all. Grading is fair and fast, awarding partial credit often. Weekly quizzes, 2 midterms, and 1 final, which can improve midterm scores. Homework roughly twice a week on webwork. She also gave the entire class a massive grade bump after finals.

Fisher made this class interesting; she always used real-life examples, which helped me keep focus. I would 100% recommend her as a math teacher.

Truly enjoyed her math teaching. Very clear explanations and walks you through every step of the way! I LOVED her lecture guides; really were useful to have! Webwork and practice exams are usually tougher than the actual exam itself! Overall really loved her!!!!

She was a great lecturer and really cared about your success in the class. Go to her office hours, it really helps and she is very helpful when she is able to help you. Grading is very clear; study well and pay good attention in class and you'll be successful.

I love ms. Fisher. I had her for both trig and calc for the bio sciences 1 and i'm going to taker her next term for calc for the bio sciences 2. She is really helpful and approachable during office hours and she prints out worksheets and notes packets for you and gives them to you at the start of class so you are not on your own.

This class is not easy, but Cassandra explains everything so clearly! She talks to us like kindergarteners, but sometimes that's exactly what we need. If you don't have calc experience, you'll struggle. Pay attention in every lecture, ACTUALLY do the webwork/homework and this class will be a breeze. Sign up for encore if you can.

I would generally say every criterion matches to be an adequate professor. The course is formatted similarly to every math class I've previously taken, just at a bigger scale. I think it's just a basic math class, just like every other math class, so everything is fair.

If you show up to lectures and try to learn you'll do great in Business Calc. It's not a crazy class and I was pretty nervous going into it. Fisher's lectures are super clear and break things down really nicely. Just don't miss class or you'll fall behind. Also go to tutoring and office hours as soon as you need help cause stuff piles up fast.

As long as you show up to office hours and take notes in class, you will do fine.

I really liked her as well as this class, as long as you go to class you will be good. She explains things well and clearly and gives out extra credit everyday in class with the iclicker. Attendance is graded, but if you get the extra credit points it covers you.

Prof Fisher was one of the best professors I've had at the UO. Expect a weekly, one-page quiz and weekly homework assignments. Prof. Fisher is very understanding and easy to talk to, and is very fair in giving partial credit on quizzes/ exams. As long as you put in effort and attend lectures, you'll be fine.

Ms. Fisher is very nice and helpful but pretty sure she is a Trump supporter

Cassandra was amazing, she was caring and always explained topics well, especially if there were questions. There where 2 midterms and a final with weekly quizzes on Friday. Attendance is not mandatory Mon-wed but is on Friday, go to class -she does not post notes or lectures. Overall, I really enjoyed this class because of her teaching style.

she is amazing i love her! super caring and helpful, easy to reach outside of class, and her lectures actually make sense. first math class ive enjoyed since middle school and i feel like im actually learning/understanding content. weekly homework/worksheets/quizzes but they arent hard and you get a notecard for tests/exams

Cassandra took the time to make sure her students understood the material. I was nervous about the material at first, but she explained it very well. Overall, I would take her class again.

One of the best math teacher ive had. Practice test are very simliar to the real midterm, and expect quiz weekly/hw/webwork. But overall pretty chill class.

Recommend not skipping the class, I missed some days, and it was hard to catch up on. But go to her office hours because that really helped.

One of the best math profs Ive had. Lectures are fast and sometimes hard to follow if you get lost, but ask questions and she will help. Ive always had a hard time in math but the way she taught made it easy to understand.
