HORRIBLE TEACHER, HORRIBLE CLASS! I had to withdraw b/c I wouldn't of passed. Grades homework SO hard, test suck, quizzes are AWFUL, do not take this class
This teacher is one of the worst professors I have ever had, She does not know how to teach and grades things like you are a senior in college as a freshman. I failed every midterm I took and I studied harder for this class than any other class.
Mrs. Yslas is incredibly passionate about what she is teaching so if you don't listen she will get upset. It is really difficult to get an A on the written homework's. Also, watch out for pop quizzes. She is kind if you show that you care about her course.
Yslas has pros and cons. She grades very harsh and tends to be inconsistent and unclear with her grading. One pro is that she does understand math and what she is doing. However, she puts in no extra effort to help students. She'll teach the material but anything beyond that and you are on your own. She isn't the worst but I do not suggest her.
This class was five times a week, but still felt so rushed. TOUGH GRADER. Every single problem on written homework is checked by the professor and marked off for the littlest of things. Tests are *IMPOSSIBLE*. I have never gotten a C in math before, but this semester I did. Would not recommend to anyone.
The class really depends on how easily math comes to you. For me, this class was all review from high school and the class/work was boring. I got an A on every midterm by just attending Think Tank review sessions (extremely helpful). HOWEVER, the homework is graded so harshly and no matter how hard you try or go to TT you'll still get a bad grade.
HW is graded SO harshly. Buy Math112 notebook and show up to EACH class! Pop quizzes, hella ALEKS hw, several class activities, 3 midterms & a final . I printed out each test study guide, studied my a** off at ThinkTank and got an 85 on each midterm and 93 on final. GO TO OFFICE HOURS FOR HELP W/HW. An A is possible, but I f'd up on a couple HW.
Does not care or teach concepts well. Expects complete sentences on HW, does not practice what she preaches in class. Treats class like HS freshman. Wastes class time goes over. ALEKS is torture, and widely used in the class. It wastes a lot of time, and new concepts are poorly introduced. Failures snowball and roadblock you. HW is graded harsh.
I've been reading many of the reviews and let me say one thing, those people are freshmen who expect college to be easy peas. She is a great teacher who has great lectures. I have never been bored once. Yes, she is a tough grader because she expects it to be done a certain way but you will definitel learn something from her if you listen and try.
She gives homework every week that are toughly graded. Has pop quizzes from now and then. Some group projects. Reading the reviews on here made me scared to take her class. I thought i would regret it but after taking her class I realized she is a great teacher. If you want a slightly challenging class where you learn something, look no further.
This is the worst professor I have ever had. I would not recommend to ever take her course. She is passive aggressive and very rude to students. She is not helpful even when you go to her for help or office hours. This class is set up so it is almost impossible for students to do well even when attending office hours, tutoring sessions and reviews.
I absolutely hated this class. She is extremely passive agressive. All of the homework she assigns is graded so harshly, I dont think I got above a 70% on a single one. ALEKS is the worst! During class, she would go over new topics poorly. However, the tests are pretty easy and worth a lot so if you do your ALEKS and study guides you'll pass easily
Shes not a bad professor. With the written homework, I would recommend going to office hours just because you can get doc points for the smallest things and the professor can tell you what to fix. In my opinion, it wasnt a hard class just as long as you do your homework and do well on the exam.
WORST CLASS I HAVE EVER TAKEN. SHE DOES NOT CARE ABOUT HER STUDENTS. If you go into office hours to get help you still get a C on your homework even after she tells u its right. U waste half the class going over warm up problems or doing things that do not even help u. HW is impossible & you will fail them, aleksto much & has nothin to do w clas
Worst professor I've ever had at the uofa. If I could give her 0 stars I would. She is so rude and does not care about her students. The majority of my class failed. She does not teach concepts well and makes it hard for her students to understand.
I've never had a worse professor. There are assignments due that are not in the syllabus, she's very disorganized and unfriendly and her attitude does not inspire motivation to jump through her hoops. She does not explain concepts well and homework is graded obscenely tough.
She was by far the worst prof I have ever had. I worked my butt off in this class, attended office hours, bought the study book, went to think tank. You name it I did it and I still got a D. She has no compassion for any of the students and seemed like she could care less about what we did and what we struggled with. There's TONS of homework.
Unfortunately, the math dept at the Uofa is terrible and she adds the icing to the cake for worst math teachers there. Unlike my MATH 112 peers who took it w other teachers, she gives the most homework (loves word problems) and requires students to write out each step. Classwork is graded strictly and attendance is mandatory. Her voice is annoying!
Catherine Yslas is the WORST MATH TEACHER AT UOFA. She discourages students from attending ThinkTank and her homework is impossible to complete. Everything you think you know about college algebra, forget it, she teaches it in the most unconventional way. She is a harsh grader and will grade you on the smallest things. DO NOT TAKE HER!
YSLAS SUCKS! While I have an immense appreciation for math, her lectures are mandatory and are quite boring. She is very strict on how the homework should be completed and if she knows a student attends THINKTANK, she grades the homework lower. She once told me 'THINKTANK' sucks and I should only go to her TAs.
Her voice alone could bring ears to bleed; even the deaf cover their ears when she pipes up with her insane lectures and surly attitude. Without a doubt, the worst teacher I have ever had the displeasure of being under the tutelage of. I suggest the university reconsider her employment immediately.
Catherine is quite literally the worst Professor I have had. As far as her teaching goes she is mediocre but she has cut off people mid question if it doesn't feel relevant. Over-assigns homework, really reliant on tests, and feels pay to win in regards of studying. Was approved for extra time due to DRC yet was not given it. Avoid her at all costs
WORST TEACHER EVER. Assigns so much homework and grades ONLY on accuracy. Teaching style is literal gibberish. Rude af and so passive aggressive. Do not take her. I repeat, do not take her. This was the first math class I ever had a hard time in. She is all to blame. So belittling and thinks she is so amazing. She sucks.
Worse professsor ever. Her voice is annoying. She gives double amount the homework as other math professors which says a lot being math 112 is a lot of work for everyone. This class is the most failed math class at U of A and part of it is because of her.
Yslas was the worst professor that I had. She treats the students like they are high school students, is very rude, and condescending. We had homework assignments due every week and expect us to have the same level of detail that she doesn't even teach us. Aleks wasn't helpful, luckily the exams were easier than the actual homework assignments.
She doesn't actually teach her students she allows ALEKS to teach you and then gets upset when you answer the questions of how ALEKS told you to instead of how she wants you to. She is not accommodating to anyone's situation during the pandemic. People cannot skip an exam for any reason.
She is not good at teaching and annoying, hard grader. Seems like she was picked the streets to teach
Prof Yslas seems caring, but she grades very tough, and her written homeoworks and exams have been case sensitive. This means even if our answer was correct, it will be wrong if you include an extra space, or write a word wrong. This brought my grade down so low, and I really had to work hard for just a C
When there is class she doesn't teach, she goes over like 2 problems then asks how our days is. When you ask for help it is very hard to understand what she s saying. You basically have to make a group chat with the smartest person in the class and then have that person teach the class.
She is the worst math professor ever. She doesn't even lecture us. Someone else records videos for the "lecture" in which there are only examples of things how to do. I would end up with an A, but there is no teaching. There is one live class in which she just tells us what do next week and one or two examples. Don't take this class.
She is the worst math teacher I have ever had. There is class once a week for 50 minutes where she does 1 or 2 of the easy problems and then the rest of class she asks us how our days are and wastes the time. The exams are so much harder than any of the daily work and sometimes are not even the same topics. ALEKS taught me more than she ever has.
This class was hard and it's algebra. You could get the right answer on a homework but you get it wrong over something stupid. HW is graded extremely tough, and it's very frustrating. The whole class is basically self taught because the videos don't go that in-depth. The classes were sort of useful, but they only went over problems.
Sheesh. Not a good professor. If you're taking math 112, switch to a different professor lol
DO NOT take any class with this prof. She is absolutely awful and completely unaccommodating. I had COVID and several other illnesses, tried to show proof to make up work and she completely denied me. I'm ending with a grade lower than anything I've ever received in my life. AVOID HER at all costs.
This was the worst class I have ever taken. In brief, Yslas was a hard grader and was very unsympathetic towards students. The content of the class is easy and understandable, but getting a good grade is extremely difficult and help is rarely offered. I have always been a high achieving student, but the expectations for this class were insane.
ALEKS program sucked. score low in the entry test you can have 500 homework questions each week vs scoring high in that test you have 0-10. Tests sucked because they were mostly word problems vs the ALEKS homework which were not word problems. Written homework took too long to grade, you couldn't work on what you didnt understand before the test
Way too much content for a college algebra course. This was my third year doing algebra to prep for calculus and the amount of work required is blown way out of proportion. I feel sorry for anyone who doesnt know the material from previous classes, and good luck learning anything due to the pacing if you don't.
Since we only have class once a week everything in this class is basically self-taught through pre-recorded videos. There's also A LOT of work to get done every week, and it can be hard especially if you don't know how to do the problems EXACTLY how she wants them. Overall this teacher assigns a lot of work every week and doesn't teach that well.
When I say that this was the worst class I have ever taken, I am not lying. For starters, the examples in the lectures don't even help. Aleks taught more than the lectures. The grading is weirdly specific too, one little thing and it's just wrong. The professor is nice though, but she'd only go over two easy exam examples and that's it.
Prof Yslas is the worst math instructor I have ever had. She would spend the entire online lecture talking about irrelevant things and would take the last 10 min of class to go over a problem or two. She did not care about her students AT ALL and honestly, it's hard to even consider her a teacher when all the material we covered was in ALEKS.
if you have to have her as a prof. I'm sorry
Professor Yslas does not seem to care if her students are struggling. Many of us spoke up during zoom about how we felt unprepared for our first exam, how some of us couldn't make it to tutoring sessions and she laughed at us and said "that's unfortunate". She spends 30 minutes of class time with useless icebreakers when we could actually be taught
She is literally the WORST professor I have EVER had. If you get her drop the class or switch professors. She does NOT care about her students and she does NOT like to teach. Voice is very annoying too.
This professor does not take the time to review or care about students opinions. When asked to slow down she will not, when asked to review she will not. She has little to no care or understanding for students outside lives and thus when she is asked for further explanation she directs them to tutoring or office hours instead of defining her work.
This class was terrible. Catherine Yslas would start off class with questions that did not make any sense. Also, she didn't care about the students. We would ask her questions about the graded homework and the only thing she responded with was "read carefully" the homework was graded terrible. She seems to not care about how we feel.
For the first 40 min of class she will talk about something random like Cheetos that no one cares about. You have 10 min to actually learn math and when there is an exam coming up its apparently your problem to learn the rest of the material that they won't teach you. Which is their job. It is not worth the 3000 I will never take her class again.
Not a very helpful professor at all!!! I definitely would not recommend taking her class. Many students addressed their concerns with her and she simply shows us that she does not care. We have to learn the actual material outside of class which sucks because then what is the actual class for? Dont take this class she is terrible at teaching.
Hate her! I had her for 2 semesters in a row (not by choice) both times I got F's. at least half of my class has F's. she doesn't teach anything and doesn't explain what she does teach. On zoom, we ask her questions about the problem and she either ignores it or doesn't give a direct answer. My mental health seriously deteriorated due to math 112.
She doesnt care about you, shes here for her paycheck. She is a horrible teacher, she spends the first 20 minutes talking about random stuff then spends the rest of class zooming by practice problems. If you ask her a question and she doesn't like it she'll say "go to office hours." Do NOT take her, if you have her LEAVE, worst teacher ever.
Yslas was the worst teacher I've ever had the displeasure of dealing with. Her voice was incredibly grating and would cause me intense migraines for the entire day after class. She goes over the easiest problem possible and sends us on our way. Written homeworks are an automatic F. Even if answers are correct, you'll be subtracted points.
She does not care for her students and chooses the easiest problems to go over. The homework is so difficult, and she deducts points over the smallest issue. The quizzes are nothing like what you learn in class, and her camera quality is so bad it' not possible to take notes. Oh, and if you work while doing school she thinks "it's unfortunate".
Professor Yslas is a good teacher, I think that she most likely flourishes with in-person teaching, but her class is more lackluster when online. I mirror some sentiments with fellow commenters, where homework is overly difficult and quizzes don't often reference lectures, but with enough work put in I think the class is passable, but not fun.
There's a bare minimum required for teachers when it comes to teaching, and honestly? My 7 year old cousin could do a better job explaining math. The homeworks were disproportionately difficult, relied on you having an originally high score in Aleks, and were downright impossible to complete. If you are able to switch out, please do.
I had her in the Fall of 2020, so i understand that online teaching is not for everyone. However, it would be nice to know that thousands of dollars of tuition could afford to get students a better educator. I relate to many other students with regards to her very disorganized teaching style and her inability to answer simple questions.
Teaches like its elementary school but then gives hard homework that dont even come close to matching examples from in class. Doesnt seem to want to teach her students anything close to the homework.
I don't recommend Catherine Yslas as a professor. She teaches awful lessons that aren't relevant to the homework. Not to mention she becomes malicious if you don't take notes during her awful lectures. I don't think the University is a right fit for her, she should try a community college or pre-school. It's sad students pay for this "education".
Ysals is AWFUL. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS I am in Math 112 and yesterday was the 1st exam. I was worried because the small amount of content Yslas goes over in class never relates to the hw she assigns. Same thing with the exam, she had not taught us 97% of it. It was all foreign to me and many of students. She does not know what shes teaching at all.
She is very harsh and grades strictly
HORRIBLE. Yslas should be ashamed to call herself an educator. I am shocked she is teaching at a university. I expect better seeing that the University of Arizona is such a renowned school. U of A needs to hold their professors (particularly this appalling "professor") to higher standards. Shame. DO NOT TAKE ANY OF HER CLASSES. EVER. EVER. EVER.
Doesn't teach anything, expects students to learn college algebra from ALEKS alone. ALEKS crashed today and I was worried about getting the assignment in on time. I emailed her a heads up that there are issues with ALEKS. I assume many students did as she posted to the D2l "If you have problems with ALEKS, then you need to contact ALEKS Support."
This class is perfect if you want to be teleported back to highschool and are looking forward to the typical condescending and way-too-fast way that's normally taught. Honestly the content done in class isn't terrible, but good luck on the homework. It's much harder than what you do in class, and it's graded so harshly you won't ever get points.
She is a terrible teacher, I have asked questions in class and to no avail. The homework does not follow any form of what is happening in the lecture. She teaches incredibly fast and you cant retain any of the information. The only way you will do well in this class is prior knowledge. Even the SI dont help so dont bother.
The worst math prof here. Didn't like her at all. Switch out of her class.
She is one of the coolest professors I have had on Math. I dunno how could she get such bad reviews here. She makes everything simple and does not rumble on forever on a fixed topic. Assignments are a lot but actually doable if you give them some time. She explains everything simply. A good instructor.
Awful teacher. She calls out people for no reason and embarrasses them. The lectures are OK. But the homework we get afterwards is way harder and time consuming. Sometimes, she assigns three or more assignments per day. If you can take someone else, please do yourself a favor.
She is the worst math teacher I have encountered in my academic career. If you could choose another professor do yourself a favor and choose anyone that isn't her. I went to tutoring and would still fail her homework assignments. Be prepared to have the majority of your time taken up by this one class.
The reviews are accurate for Catherine. She does assign more homework than many other MATH112 professors. She sometimes feels like she is talking down to students or making them feel less than. Just do the study guides for the exams and go to her TA's office during hours for the homework and you'll pass.
She only gets through 3 questions max in class and expects us to learn the rest on our own. She lets the TA grade all by himself and he is way too strict for the lack of information they teach us. She talks down to her students and makes them feel dumb and says "if you are not in Eller, you probably won't be able to do this". DO NOT RECOMMEND
HORRIBLE. I took this class during Zoom time so it might have been a little different but I was having a full on crying balling my eyes out panic attack during on of the exams and she still made me take it on zoom and gave me no extra time or extra help. I got a 30% on the exam and it screwed my grade for the rest of the semester. DO NOT TAKE!!!!
Worst math professor ever. Treated students like children and did not teach well. Avoid at all costs. Impossible to get an A even when going to think tank. Not understanding. Would 100% not recommend her or this class. Take at Pima if you can. 3 midterms (all different units). The last midterm and final exam are a week apart.
She is not good at teaching. If she stopped teaching then bent over and farted for the whole duration of the class, the amount of math knowledge you will get will be equal to when she tries to teach.
Avoid this class at all costs. Yslas is the worst of the worst in the already horrible math department. She assigns 3x more homework than other professors and classwork does not accurately reflect the homework that is done outside of class. I recommend working with your peers in this class and also going to think tank and office hours if you dare.
Do not, under any circumstances, ever, EVER take a course taught by this woman. She is incapable of leading a discussion or giving a coherent lecture. Do not waste your time, there is nothing to be learned from Catherine.
Dont take! Save you the trouble ahead of time.
This professor is horrible don't take her class. If this class wasn't required I would have dropped it after the first week of class. She doesn't care about correct answers only if you do it the way she wants you to do it which she barely explains. I have an A in every other class but this one and there's a reason for that this professor.
She has stuff due at noon. I room math 112 specifically to help ease me into college life and with everything going on having stuff due at noon when you have a job, other classes, and so many other things a class I shouldve gotten an a or b in became a c
Class is definitely hard and requires a lot of time and hard work to receive a good grade. There's a lot of homework and it's all graded pretty hard. Professor isn't as bad as everyone says, if you go to office hours she is willing to help and work with you and you should be able to get a decent grade.
Truly a miserable class, Yslas does not care about the students and it shows. Almost 80% of grade was tests, and the rest was brutally graded homework assignments. Takes down to students and was just an unpleasant person. Do yourself a favor and take a different class, trust me!
Yslas is not as bad as the reviews make her out to seem. Yes, there is a ton of homework and it is graded harshly, but that is what office hours are for. Class is not an easy A whatsoever, I would recommend if you got a mid-C or above in Math 100, then take the class. If you took pre-calc in high school this class is just a review of those classes
Prof. Yslas gave very unclear grading criteria for homework and treated students with very low respect. Despite being a college-level course, I was treated like a kindergartener and hated the class. The only good thing I can say about her is that she was very accessible outside of class and willing to help during office hours.
There were constant written homework assignments weekly. She never cared that students had failing grades in her class. Instead of evaluating her own teaching, she would tell students to "do better next time." She would drag the class longer than the ending time. She was not understanding of students. She made students feel like they were children
Swapped for a different professor. ALEKS is a decent program in theory, though the way it is used in this class is counterproductive. Homework is graded far too critically. The first homework assignment I was given points off for seemingly inconsequential things. Class feels very passive and I feel like more of a copier than a student.
she is an awful teacher. for math112 she assigns an excessive amount of homework and grades very tough. I have spent hours on assignments just to get a 60. her written homework have no correlation to the work being done in class. she moves through it so quickly and is hard to follow. her notes are all over the place and hard to keep track of.
The class is review if you are coming from Pre Calc in high school. Other reviews don't lie, homework is rough and there is lots of it. Aleks is used here. Written homework isn't absolutely terrible unlike other reviews make it out to be. At the very least, there are office hours. Main takeaway is that it's more busy work than actual learning.
Professor isn't particularly bad or mean but her teaching style is more middle school than university level. If you found Algebra 2 easy then you probably won't have to study much, but the workload gets exhausting and it starts to get really tempting to skip every possible assignment. If you have to take 112, I wish you luck.
Get ready to be held 2-5 minutes after class ends because she will cram in one last problem and at that point people packed up and are struggling to get those notes down The homework is extremely difficult and has barley anything to do with what we learn in class. If you do not utilize office hours it will be difficult to get a good grade.
Not the best, lots of homework every week. She does work step by step in class, but doesn't go over assignments. You can't skip class or you will fall behind. You will probably have to go to office hours to get help once a week because some of the stuff she gives just doesn't make sense. She also treats you like you're back in high school.
Math is hard enough at UA, if u actually want to fail and feel the need to pull your hair out every-time you receive a grade from this professor then take her class. The TA's are so unhelpful. The written homework are next to impossible to receive above a 65% on. The tests so hard. The professor is rude and does not care about you.
I think a lot of students go into this class thinking it'll be like a high school math course. Truly it wasn't terrible but you have to put the work in and almost always go to her office hours for homework. She can be harsh on students but is usually helpful if she knows you put effort into the class (go to office hours, email her, etc.).
Overall, this class was pretty difficult. She assigns multiple homework assigns each week and moves pretty quickly in class. And no late work is accepted. However, it is possible to pass the class. Go to office hours, THINK TANK, form study groups, and get help from the TA. Def recommend using the study guides to study for midterms and final.
I was a straight-A student before this class. The tests are challenging and Yslas does not prepare you well for them. The written homework is not related to the tests whatsoever. Even the tutors agreed the homework was not related. I spent nearly 20 hours a week in office hours with Uday and Jorge and they are the only reason I passed with a B.
Encourages questions but is rude when questions are asked. Doesn't understand how to use gradescope yet half of the classes assignments are done on gradescope. Very bland voice and has judgmental looks if you openly answer a question incorrectly.
WARNING: DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS!!!!!!!!!! I thought I was being crazy. She treats the students like kindergartners. She makes us switch seats EVERY SINGLE class which creates unnecessary stress. Gradescope is not an intuitive platform to use and the homework material is NOT taught in class. She doesn't speak clearly and is not a good teacher.
If you took pre calc in high school, this class should not be too hard, The aleks assignments are not that difficult but the written homework is extremely hard. Office hours will help a lot for the homework. The tests are not that difficult but you have to do well since they are a significant portion of your grade. Really hard to get an A.
highly recommend to not take her class or switch out immediately
Absolutely terrible professor. Uday and Jorge are great. I would highly recommend choosing a different professor if you would like to be treated like a college student. Along with this, she makes students do impractical group work for majority of class instead of teaching. Then, Yslas chooses to cram in questions while class has already ended.
If you want to be treated like a middle schooler this is the class for you. She makes the homework much harder for the exams and when you ask her a question she is so rude. Luckily her TA's are amazing and they are really the only reason why anyone is passing this class. Overall I had a horrible experience and was stressed out the whole time
Yslas treats the class like we are in middle school and children.
Professor Yslas is always available for extra help. There is a lot of homework, and some of it can be BS sometimes, but the majority of the time, it will always help you. She also makes sure you participate and that everybody understands the content.
She treats students like children and doesn't know how to answer a question. If you ask a direct question she proceeds to answer anything except the question the proceeds to flip in on to you. Also so much pointless busy work not worth it.
This class should not be a 9 week it should be a full semester long, everything felt crammed and rushed. The tests are like actually impossible, I have a 60% average on them while the rest of the class is around that as well. I believe getting a b is impossible, so I dropped this class. The teacher is nice it's just that the exams are impossible.
I took her Math 106 course & as someone that struggles in math, this is by far the best math course I've ever taken. You must show up, attendance is taken every day, group homeworks due every other week, 4 major tests, and discussion posts every week. Just show up and do the work and you'll pass. She reminds you every class about upcoming due dates
I'm serious when I say you should try to get ANY other professor than her. She was the absolute WORSTTT teacher I have ever had. The class alone feels rushed and her terrible "teaching" makes it so much worse. Exams are NOTHING like your homework, study guide, or what you learn in class. No notes are posted so you have to take a picture. SWITCH OUT
Insanely difficult class. Content was rushed through. If I could go back, I would choose a different professor. I believe she has good intentions as a teacher and is kind to her students however her teaching style proved to be very ineffective throughout this course as I spoke to many of my peers that struggled to pull off C's and D's
Professor Yslas runs a tough yet rewarding class. The homework is challenging, but going to office hours and using resources like Unstuck study can really help. Overall, the class is doable with consistent effort.
WORST teacher ever. She teaches in a kindergarten not a university. She knows nothing about the lectures and treats EVERYONE like 2-year old BABY.
WORST teacher ever. She doesn't know how to answer a math question but she knows how to insult a student. Her teaching is bad and not useful. AVOID before it is too late.
Treat students with no respect. Blame you if you try to take a picture. Homework is not related to exams. Exams accout for 90%. NEVER EVER take her class if you care about your GPA. My friends get much better scores with someone else by doing only 15% of my work.
I am serious about this. She is a terrible teacher and switch out or drop if you can. Do not donate money to her. She assigns unreasonable homework and gives bad grades. I dropped the class before it is too late but I cannot get my money back. If it is not mandatory, drop immediately. Otherwise, try to switch if you can.
She treats everyone like kids with no respect. There is no textbook and she is unqualified. Even her TA does not know want she is doing. I have to drop today because I cannot donate money to such a person.
Took her class before. She never taught anything and she didn't care how many people were dropping her class. The math department didn't care either when you contacted them. I can't believe I have to donate money to this woman. What a shame of the university.
I already feel she is a VERY bad person so I drop immediately. Hope to study with someone else. I can't believe she teaches in a university and I don't want to donate money to her.
She teaches nothing in class and only expects you to learn things during office hours. I got an A because I learned something similar in high school. I have to teach my friends without getting paid so that they can pass. She is unqualified and she expects you to drop so that the school becomes rich and she has fewer students in her class.
VERY Terrible experience. I would take a similar class at Pima. She is a VERY bad teacher that not worth the money I am paying. I can't believe U of A still keeps her.
She cares about attendance but she teaches nothing. You have to go to her office hours all the time to barely pass. I was forced to quit my on-campus job because of her terrible teaching. Her class has nothing to do with my major but it is mandatory. Shame of U of A. AVOID HER! ALL my friends taking others' classes have less homework.
She teaches nothing and she can't answer questions. She teaches you by forcing you to work with your classmates. I won't call her a teacher. She is a babysitter. Shame of U of A.
The class is called Calculus Preparation but she is definitely not prepared and I am definitely not well prepared. She ruined my view of Calculus!
Publicly humiliate you when you take out your phone, even if she wrote too small letters. I have to check something she didn't mention before but she will yell at you. She treated people rudely. She is the WORST teacher I have ever met.
Her ego is greater than anything and she doesn't care anything happening to you, loss of a family member, hurricane or wildfires. You will lose points even you emailed her these situations. She is SUPER COLD-BLOODED.
I was a straight A student before I met her. I received A for other classes except this one. She teaches nothing but she treats you rudely. She is unable to answer a question you asked. She ignores your complaints. AVOID!
I was a good and healthy student before. But I ended up with sever mental health issues after taking her class. She never cared. I almost killed myself after receiving my grade.
She is unable to use the class time efficiently and she barely teaches. She expects you to spend ALL your free time in her office hours which is insane. Other teachers don't do that. Luckily I took a similar class before so it is easy for me. But it is very sad to see my friends struggling.
I learnt with my classmates and after-school tutors, not with her. She taught nothing in class. I paid for a teacher not a platform. My friends make money with platforms rather than paying for them. U of A is not a cheap school and this is so unfair.
I have to spend all my free time searching the Internet for the knowledge she was supposed to teach in class but she didn't. She only teach 15 minutes in a 50-minute class, which is insane. I am supposed to use my free time to work on-campus to support my education. I have to quit these jobs and her class is unrelated to my major. AVOID!
I took her class as a prerequisite of another class. I learned nothing but how rude a person can be and how terrible a person can be. She can't answer a simple math question I asked but emphasized on how good her teaching is. I am feeling like paying for being part of an experiment, which is VERY bad. AVOID!
She barely teaches and you are supposed to spend ALL your time in her office hours. She is unable to handle the crowds and she can only provide hints because homework counts. The hints she provided involved something not mentioned in her lectures. You need to hire after-school tutors to get a good score which is unreasonable.
She is against free speech. She encourages you to ask questions but she doesn't provide a satisfactory answer or a sufficient enough answer. If you ask additional questions, she chooses to ignore you or criticize you. Sometimes she directly tells you to ask her TA not her. Very bad. AVOID!!!
She ignores any questions that question the materials she taught even if she is wrong. Her grading is mysterious. You will receive 0 if you chooses your own methods even with the correct answer. You will get canceled immediately if you tried to question her grading. There is NO SPEECH FREEDOM in this class. AVOID! She is by far the WORST.
She doesn't teach and she encourages you to learn with your friends in groups. My friends and I knew nothing about this class before. She asks questions in class and picks a random person to provide an answer and the leaves the question alone. She stares at you if you questions a random answer from a guest. WORST experience ever!!!
Let me describe her teaching: You switch table every class and she asks a question randomly. She picks a person to answer the question and provides no feedback. You can't question anyone's answer even it is incorrect otherwise she calls you rude. She is a SUPER RUDE person. I honestly don't know what she is doing as a teacher.
She is a bad teacher who can't answer a simple question. But her TA is a good person who helped me a lot. However, her TA was fired because of her incompetence. I then dropped the class because I can't stand such a person. She is a dictator who loves power. You have no freedom if you are in her class. Drop before it's too late. AVOID!!!
Lengthy and useless feedback. You lost points for ignorable things. You can only get some points if you can read her mind. I learned nothing about math but indoctrination. AVOID!!!
She taught a college class like babysitting but she called her teaching style innovative. I definitely learned nothing about math with her innovation. AVOID!!!
Your bad experience in the first several weeks will be your experience the whole semester. Drop immediately if you don't like her. There are many other good teachers. Run fast. She is COLD-BLOODED and will not give you a good score. I almost ended up with mental issues by choosing her class. NOT RECOMMEND!!!
I have to leave my comment here because the comments in the university terminal goes to her directly rather than her department. She is unable to answer one simple math question and treats everyone like kids. Her teaching is unrelated to the exams which leads to low grades. Drop as soon as possible before it is too late.
She kept blaming her TA in front of me when I asked her an academic question, which made me confusing and uneasy. I only need an answer to moly question and I don't care about her relationship with her TA. She answered my question by blaming someone else, which is unacceptable.
Focusing on non-math problems in her lectures. Unable to answer a medium math question, even a question about functions. She did her job by selecting "guests" randomly and let them teach you which is unacceptable. Plan to drop.
She is OK to work as an after-school tutor but she is not able to hold lectures. Homework due everyday and they are unrelated to lectures AND exams, which is unacceptable. You are supposed to spend 3x time of the time in the course description barely to pass. Her course design is a failure in any sense and she avoided suggestions. Not recommend!!!
I am serious about this, ALL the negative comments about her are true and I am not biased. The homework is not doable solely with her lectures. I expect some improvements but now I give up. Luckily I can drop with a refund. Cannot use my student loan to work with her. Thank you, RMP!!!
She refused to answer exercises in her own notes even if she assigned them as before-class work. No solutions are provided either. I can't understand the point. No solution, no grading, no interpretation.
Solid class for students in the elementary education major. You are made to work well in a group and work through foundational skills to "learn how to learn." Every other week you receive homework and quizzes. Professor Yslas wants her students to do well in class and succeed!
Never once thought about writing a review about a teacher no here, but she has convinced me to warn others. She uses AI to grade exams, so if you are not clear with your answers, the AI docks you. Took this for a GPA boost, but wanna drop out instead. She is a poor communicator and an even worse professor. AVOID AT ALL COSTS
The materials are not that difficult. I took similar classes when I was in high school and everything went well. The only difficult thing is her grading system. She failed her job as a teacher. She kept blaming people for tiny and ignorable errors but she labeled her own failures as creative and innovative. IGNORE BEFORE ITS TOO LATE!!!
She did not teach anything. She only focused on how to teach instead of the knowledge she ought to teach. She never cares about the negative reviews. Her department does not either. It is an IED class rather than a math class. I just need to know how to switch out!!!
I am too tired of her mind-controlling and unclear grading system. Her lectures are intolerable and they are simply a waste of time. Unfortunately, I don't know how to switch out and I have to take this class to take classes in my major. SO BAD!!!!!!
It is unsurprising that she is so bad because her title is NOT even professor ALTHOUGH she kept emphasizing that we should call her PROFESSOR YSLAS. But NO. Cheating is cheating and misleading is misleading.
It is a diveqinc class rather than a math class. Very terrible experience. Wonder how to switch out!
I am serious about this. It's not about working hard or attending lectures. There is no textbook and she is unable to answer questions in her own lecture notes. She encourages you to employ after-school tutors for a university class which is unbelievable. She does not even have a PhD degree and she cheats by calling herself PROFESSOR. AVOID!!!
I didn't view these reviews seriously. Now she teaches me a class, if your teacher is unqualified enough, then you will be unqualified to do anything and lose anything. It's a good lesson that you should be serious about RMP.
Her resume shows no evidence that her education is higher than high school and she taught high school for a long time. How could she arrogantly call her a PROFESSOR? This is a scam and I just wanted my money back. Her teaching style is too far from university.
She should teach in Pima instead of U of A. She is not qualified and she knows nothing about teaching in a university. Research-level university is not suitable for her.
I get abused simply because I questioned her grading system. And she was unable to provide a satisfactory answer about the reason why I lost points?????? This is definitely unacceptable!!!!!!
womnp womp
Bullies should get punished, including this woman!!!!!!
I had high expectations before taking this class, now everything I want is to file a scam report and file an abuse report! Students' voices ought to be heard by the public if the teacher is an abuser and a bully!
Bro why is she teaching at this University when her class average is a 64%? You're telling me that it's all on the students? Can't put all the blame on our shoulders when it should be falling on hers.
If almost everybody gets a low score, and almost everyone spends time described in the syllabus doing their homework, then there is something WRONG with THIS TEACHER. No need to mention her constantly abusive behavior when treating others!!!!!!
If more than 35% of my friends in this class feel being bullied, that means SHE is a bully, PERIOD!!!
She antagonized my friend for what seems like no reason. She graded her test, and then re-graded it for a lower score with no explanation. She has been told that the way she treats my friend causes her to have anxiety but she still does it anyway. She doesn't even seem to want her to succeed.
She helped when I went to office hours, and was willing to help me when I needed it.
She is unable to explain the concept of a function clearly!!! It is simply a waste of time if you talk to her. Her lectures are useless and unrelated to homework or exams. Her grading system is mysterious and mind-controlling. I need a teacher rather than an ego-builder by insulting students, PERIOD!!!
Her teaching style results in nothing but mental illness, which is SERIOUS. She is unable to interpret any concepts clearly and her resume does not even show she is qualified to teach in a research-based university. She shows her power by trashing others, especially assigning them lower scores. She forces you to praise to give you higher scores.
Teaching is not equivalent to babysitting. Grading is not equivalent to sketching. Talking is not equivalent to yelling. SWITCH OUT IF YOU CAN!!!!!!
Learning with Yslas means UNNECESSARY anxiety. If you care about your mental health, NEVER learn from her. She literally knows little about math since I took nearly identical classes in high school. She is not as good as my high school teacher and she has no advanced degrees to support her position. She is the WORST person I have ever met!!!
For all the newcomers, if you ignore all the negative comments on this website about her and your GPA sucks because of her, I feel so sorry for you for not trusting any people who got bullied in advance.
People dump trash into garbage can, including some abstract things like someone's teaching. Trash is trash. I don't want to pay for trash! PERIOD!!!
This woman OUGHT TO post her cv on her university profile PUBLICLY so that we can make a decision before wasting time. SHE knows nothing about what she is talking about and SHE TRASHES people RANDOMLY. WORST experience ever met!!!!!
I am in business school and I took her class as a prerequisite years ago. One of her problem sets misled me about the knowledge in my field and it took me several semesters to figure that out!!!!!! This is not acceptable. She should at least mention her mistakes in class but she didn't. I cannot trust anything she taught me now.
She encourages me to drop this class when I spent much time figuring out what she was talking and had an honest conversation with her. I never ever met a teacher who cares nearly nothing about the success of a student. She said I don't think you are proper to do math. Avoid!!!
WORST, without one of. She tries her best to bully anyone by chance. Her department ignores all your complaints and suggestions. My parents encourage me to transfer school. I deeply regret choosing University of Arizona.
She is unable to distribute the materials effectively and she barely knows how to grade. I should never choose this expensive but low quality school.
Unless you are a mind-reader, HER class is NOT SUITABLE for you.
She has no idea about how to treat people properly. College students are NOT babies wearing diapers. College teachers are not someone who ONLY needs to assign homework without being able to solve problems in the homework. Choosing UA can be the worst mistake made in my life. With this quality of teaching, honestly I cannot impress my employers.
If a person like her can be considered as a good teacher or her teaching style can be accepted, I would call that bure*******
If the universi
If the university is blind about all our complaints about her terrible teaching style, her students are deemed to getting unemployed. This is so unfair because I took a class with her.
She needs a more precious introduction at the beginning of a semester, like what degree she received and what she did before she joined the university. She needs to know that college is not high school and we are not crying babies.
She thinks teaching at a research based university is equivalent to reading diaper babies, which is nonsense. I come here to learn skills to get employed, instead of showing my babysitting skills on my cv. She should find a job as a babysitter, which is paid better. She is not suitable for this position because everyone complains!!!
This professor lacks professionalism, lacks respect for students and fails to provide necessary resources for success. The tests were not hard at least in my opinion but there is lots of extra homework, and the gradescope homeworks are extremely dificult and are not relevant to any of the course material. These dropped my grade heavily.
I don't care if my teacher is arrogant if this person has a PhD degree or this person is a Nobel Prize winner, etc. But if a person cannot prove that SHE has a degree higher than high school and abuse almost everyone, I AM SORRY. YOU ARE JUST UNQUALIFIED TO BE CALLED A TEACHER.
Honestly, it
Honestly it is too difficult to find a person worse than her. She teaches nothing but she praises her teaching.
She has to tell us IN ADVANCE that how much she is going to teach and the average score of her class. Otherwise we just waste our time listening to a middle school lecture. I learned with her and I tried her tone in an interview. The interviewer thinks I am not qualified. It is a tragedy anyway.
This woman cannot even prove she has a degree higher than high school. I am a person who doesn't care too much about degrees, but this person treats you terribly at random!!! Her existence simply insults feminism and she has to stop.
She makes her students believe giving her a high ranking to receive higher scores, which is dangerous. Little math knowledge is included in this class, and she lacks basic ethical values, respecting others and feeling grateful. Her teaching is a failure no matter she admits it or not.
She thinks that people ought to attend her lectures. But I want to tell her, we attend your class because our parents paid this service and we WANT TO learn something, not because you teach good. AND she can still call herself a teacher because WE ATTEND HER CLASS.
A teacher has to be responsible for their teaching AND their behavior. This RULE works for everyone, including THIS WOMAN. If she fails the basic ethical values, she HAS TO PAY. If she fails to teaching the materials on the syllabus, she needs an interpretation. She cannot just work in the classroom AND shows her POWER OVER STUDENTS!!!
College students are people who are independent and can make OWN decisions. We need a free environment to learn! We DON'T need someone to tell us how to treat a person ON
She is nothing without the participation of her students,
You don't need any math. All you need is to sing
Want a good grade? Learn how to sing LONG LIVE THE QUEEN!!!
Her students help her keep the class intact, BUT she BETRAY her students.
One to two modules A DAY! Can't tell which are homework assignments or notes. Partner pop quizs. assigned seats. INCONSISTENT. we are not babies, let us write our OWN DANM NOTES! was severely humbled in this class, I would rather take this course through a community college and save the last of my few brain cells after taking this course with her.
ChatGPT Plus only costs $20 dollars a month, and it is much better than Yslas, both technically and emotionally. The existence of Yslas tells the importance of home school!!! People should never use their hardworking money to support some so called professor who doesn't even have an undergraduate degree.
Talking to Yslas feels like discussing with someone whose IQ is less than 80. She is unable to understand human language and it's really difficult to distinguish her class with training AI. Maybe all of us are in a large social science experiment that we don't know. People usually get paid for participating in a social science experiment!
The materials are not difficult. She deliberately makes it difficult by disdaining her students, who paid money for her service. Can you believe some waitresses treating you like her after you tip 18%? She SHOULD at least say thank you to her students for supporting her class by participation in all those nonsenses!!!
Yslas needs to take a class before teaching, and that class is Ethical 101. She does not know how to treat people or talk to people. She needs a book, BASIC HUMAN ETHICAL VALUES for DUMMIES!!!
She cannot figure out exercises in Algebra II for DUMMIES. And that tells you everything. I am astonishing that she actually graduated from high school.
I honestly cannot get the point why we HAVE TO switch seats every class. Her class is TOO BORING. It would be much fun for me to solve arithmetic puzzles with my own family together. UofA fails this elementary class and home school is much better!!!
My own experience tells me it is important to trust RMP about Yslas. She encourages her students to drop. The harm she had done to your mental illness is irreversible. Never take her class unless you can read her mind. She gives no point if your answer doesn't EXACTLY match her standard answer. Drop early before you cannot drop it for free!
Yslas is an AI. She thinks there is a clear difference between drinking coffee and drinking Coffee, because in the second case, C is capital. And she will give you 0 points in those Gradescope assignments for the described issue.
I only learned one thing from Yslas, how to ABUSE others WITHOUT ANY CONSEQUENCES!!!
If you are lucky enough to be put in her class, the first thing you should consider is not to switch out of her class. The first thing to consider is to switch out of the school!
It is not about math. It is simply about law, order and BASIC human values. Yslas disdained law and regulations by deliberately extending 50 min class to 70 min but even so she distributed fewer materials than other teachers. Yslas showed contempt to every advice and suggestions, and she trashed talking about her students.
This is a class that you tip infinity% tips. Why? Because the original cost of the class is 0 since she does not teach at all!!!
Yslas creates mental illness and she turns a blind eye to mental health issues. This is very dangerous to people who attended her class or people who will attend her class.
Yslas has no idea about what college is and her behavior is against the very basic western values. She should be ashamed by calling herself a teacher.
Yslas HAS TO show her publications, employment history and educational background, especially the highest degree she achieved at the very beginning of the semester. We don't need some high schoolers come into a room and flaunted how clever she is. She can also post an IQ test about her. This is because EVERYONE DISLIKES FRAUD!!!
The diaper queen makes the class difficult by assigning problems she cannot even solve herself. And the highest degree she obtained is just high school, LIKE ME. But she steals my freedom, my time and my health. She should be sued and get punished!!!
Yslas did nothing but destroyed the reputation of the institution. For a long time, UA is famous for its math program for its research power. But the existence of Yslas ruined that reputation. The math department now simply wastes students' time and it shifts to something about disciplines. This is NOT GOOD. People need their freedom back!!!
Math is about critical thinking. People build their models, test their models, and modify their models. Yslas changes all of the mathematical values. She uses math as a tool to control her students' mind by saying you are wrong but she never provided any convincing explanation. Her participants learn nothing but mind-reading and lose independence.
Yslas does NOT know how to grade. She disagrees that AZ can represent Arizona. You can only gain a point if you wrote Arizona, USA. This makes no sense. I even use AZ to represent Arizona, USA when I file my tax return!!! Using AZ to represent Arizona, USA cannot be called a mistake and it has NOTHING TO DO WITH MATH!!!
Yslas can't be a math teacher. There is a CLEAR difference between >= and >, but she doesn't care about that. She only cares things like does m represent meters or miles. As a proud American, I use m to represent miles!!! Worse still, she is unable to finish her class in 50 minutes, which is against the very basic college regulations.
Yslas believes that math is about formulas. But I am sorry, Yslas IS WRONG. Even great mathematicians like Newton dares to question that Aristotle was wrong and developed his own Newton's laws. But as a college student, I can't question anything about Yslas. Just give the math department back to US!!!!!!
If Yslas is ADDICTED to high school education, she should just stay in high school!!! We don't need you at this research-based university!!!!!! Even so, I can promise that Yslas can barely solve EVEN ONE IMO problem.
Yslas changes the meaning of college education. She thinks college education means no knowledge teaching, kneeling down to the teacher, and figuring out what the teacher thinks. That is a joke. Yslas fails to distinguish young adults and kids and babies. If she has such difficulty, she OUGHT TO ATTEND A KINDERGARTEN to understand!!!!!!
Let me tell Yslas the difference between a college student and a baby wearing diapers. A college student who is over 21 can grab a beer with a valid ID, but if a baby accidentally drinks an alcoholic drink, their parents has to be sent to jail. A baby drinks human milk with a feeding bottle. If a college student drinks human milk, it's criminal!!!
Yslas can't handle the case that a student disagrees with her. She chooses UNWILLING TOUCH!!!!!! I hope everyone pays attention if you are reading this comment!!!
Yslas deliberately shoots a white board eraser at my head.
Plan to major in Psychology in the future. I can tell this woman NEEDS a TREATMENT.
Her teaching is definitely OUT OF DATE. These days, the teacher needs to know what they are talking about. Teachers are not creatures that can treat students like garbage and deduct points with no convincing reasons. Yslas puts her students and knowledge in the last position, instead, she puts her power and ego at the VERY FIRST POSITION!!!
She is the source of evil. She does NOT need a clear statement in her assignments, BUT her STUDENTS need VERY UNREASONABLE DETAILED solutions. She cannot even understand why x*x=x^2.
AI YSLAS needs a different training algorithms. THIS AI needs to be trained from primary school rather than college. THIS AI is not even close to grade 7.
Yslas should teach a gambling class instead! It should be called How to pass by taking Yslas classes!!!!!!
Let me explain what Yslas does using Physics. The students want to move forward to a higher level class, but Yslas put a 10000 (unit force) force on exactly the opposite direction because she wants students to be in a kindergarten. The work Yslas did for the student is -10000 (unit work) when the student move forward one semester.
If there is a person worse than Catherine Yslas, that person is Cathy Yslas.
I cannot believe I paid out of pocket for this course. If you're reading this right now and decide to give her a chance just like I did, please do not follow in my foolish footsteps. Pls save yourself!!!! RIP my pockets and my GPA
Yslas changed the rule completely. We don't need her to tell us how
Yslas changed the rule completely. We don't need a person to tell us how to teach. Teaching is based on your knowledge. You never think a 3-year baby can tell you how to be an adult. We do NOT need her to tell us how to socialize with others by assigning seats. Going to a bar and hanging out with others is more efficient. No DUMMIES anymore!!!!!!
Her class only works if you are a TRUE philanthropist who has a strong willing to donate money to this woman with no repayment.
Yslas knows NOTHING about the BASIC BOUNDARY between HUMAN BEINGS. Language abuse + unwillingly touch + absolute power + physical threatens + etc.
Yslas explains why university students cannot land a job today. If your future employer knows someone like her, their first action is to reject you to avoid risks. This is too unfair for her students. Her poor knowledge background and zero ethical values cost her nothing but get her students punished.
Yslas never realizes her students are the people who g
Yslas never realizes her students are the people who give her chances. Instead of being grateful, she simply looks down on her students.
Yslas labels herself as a feminist, which insults the term feminism.
If you think maybe Yslas is not as bad as described and you can give her an opportunity, then you will be COMPLETELY COOKED. Yslas thinks she is the best person in the world and she is obsessed with absolute power. She cares nothing about students. She thinks her students only take her class and she thinks there is no issue if she extends a class.
This is fraud. The university cannot waste taxpayers' dollars to employ people like her. She cannot even solve a primary school math problem, but she keeps emphasizing what you already gained from her class. All I learned from her is that you can simply abuse people by calling yourself a feminist. She simply insults women.
I have a simply question as a dummy. Is it illegal or unethical for a lecturer to label herself as a full professor???
This woman gave unwanted touches when I disagreed with her nonsense grading system. She has an ISSUE. Unwanted touches are serious cases in schools. She had no experience but only working in high schools before. Google Shelley S. Dufresne and Rachel Respess and you will know what I am talking about. The university has to pay attention!!!!!!
My friends, please leave your comments and feelings about her here!!! I really feel getting abused by her!!!
Did not learn a thing in this course and hated attending every class. The course itself was not difficult; quite a few tests and group projects every other week. I would try to avoid this class if you can, the professor does not respect student time or intelligence.
tough grader on some things but not others if you put in any effort you'll get a decent grade she really isn't bad and im lazy and got a high b
Groups homework's are the majority of your grade. very harsh grader, assignments are not clear, takes for ever to grade and get feedback, most work i've ever had to do for a class. genuinely at least 2 hours spent on it every day. worst math class ive ever taken.
THE ARIZONA WILDCATS NEEDS CHEERLEADERS NOT HAGS!!!!!!!!
Some comments will be removed immediately. Just tell who she is.
We paid her only to work with our peers. Don't learn anything useful from this woman. Only learned how to use your power to push someone to share their knowledge. Will never take another math class with this department again!!!
Yankee Doodle went to Tucson, saw an evildoer! Her name is Yslas, and cursed her students! Yankee Doodle keep it up, Yankee Doodle dandy, Mind the music and the step, And with the girls be handy.
No matter how many times my comment is removed. No matter why the school turns a blind eye on all our comments. No matter how my classmates are too afraid to have a voice. I WILL LEAVE A COMMENT HERE TO LET PEOPLE KNOW WHO SHE IS!!! Justice will not be eliminated and evildoers deserve punishments!!!
If Charlie were here, he would tell us how we were brainwashed by people like Yslas. No one comes to campus anymore. We miss you, Charlie. We need a turning point. America has to be back!!!!!!
I am a student. I am not stupid. But I am stupid according to Yslas.
Yslas called me TRASH when I asked her a question she couldn't explain clearly in class.
THE ARIZONA WILDCATS NEEDS CHEERLEADERS NOT CRONES!!!!!!!!
We need a turning point. We DO NOT need someone who is unqualified for teaching and abu** students!!!!!!
She is NOT A QUEEN.
WORST PERSON ever met in my life. CANNOT ANSWER ONE SINGLE QUESTION RELATED TO HER CLASS! Assign unreasonable homework NOT COVERED IN CLASS. SHE NEVER TEACHES BUT SHE JUDGES YOU LIKE SHE IS A QUEEN. SHE FORCES YOU TO WRITE THOSE TRASH ON A WHITE BOARD. SHE SIMPLY EATS TAXPAYERS' DOLLARS!!! This is a cri** and she deserves puni******.
So unorganized. The entire class was on paper, and it was never clear when the coursework was to be turned in. WebAssigns and online homeworks never had anything to do with what was done in class. Genuinely such a horrible class. Do not take any math at UA math department, I promise you it's not worth it.
A taxpayer should NEVER SUPPORT a person like Yslas. She is nothing but a money-eating machine. SHE DOESN'T EVEN TEACH. She is just some *E* scam. She should be called Cathy Yslascam!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why are public school goers illiterate? Beacuse your teacher like Yslas is!!!!!!
I feel so happy for Jesse Watters at Fox News. He just finds some new guests to interview in his D** Thursday program. This new guest is called Cathy Yscam in Tucson!!!!!! Hi Jesse, just send Johnny to Tucson to interview Yscam!!!!!!
Yscam is NOT A QUEEN!!!!!! There is NO QUEEN IN AMERICA!!!!!!
Yscam is a **I hiring, which is AGAINST THE WHITE HOUSE. OUR PRESIDENT SHOULD TAKE AN ACTION. SHE OUGHT TO GET DOG** MONTHS AGO!!!!!!
Yscam just yelled at some innocent students who asked questions related to the class BECAUSE SHE CANNOT EVEN ANSWER ONE QUESTION IN THE BOOK ALGEBRA FOR DUMMIES!!!!!! The name of the book tells everything. Yscam cannot call herself an educator UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!!!!! FORTUNATELY, HER BRAINWASHING METHODS DO NOT WORK FOR ME!!!!!!
Yscam MUST GO!!!!!! I am really tired of her completely TRASH TEACHING. She took taxpayers' dollars without any consequences. This is NOT AMERICA!!!!!! America is NOT A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY!!!!!!
THE ARIZONA WILDCATS NEEDS CHEERLEADERS NOT WI**HES!!!!!!!!!
**I means *I*. Yscam SHOULD NOT BE HERE AT THE VERY FIRST BEGINNING!!!!!!!!!
Yscam silences EVERYONE!!!!! Non-D** deserves a chance AS WELL!!!!!! Everyone is born equal BUT NOT some people are more equal than others! We need our voices!!! We need a leader like Charlie!!! Yscam MUST GO!!!!!!
The program USED TO BE great. Now it is taken over by the FAR LE** SCAM like Yslas!!!!!!
WORST person in the WORST program. Yscam CANNOT TEACH ANYTHING. If I were her, I would feel ashamed by calling myself a teacher. If I were her, I would resig* immediately.
Like many people here said, Yslas never teaches even A THING. I got an A because I took similar classes before. I can tell Yslas is MUCH WORSE than my MIDDLE SCHOOL teacher. I don't even think she is qualified to teach in a private middle school. YES. YSCAM should be a BETTER NAME FOR HER.
Yscam just found another way to ste** taxpayers' money after ONE BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL. BY NOT TEACHING ANYTHING AND FORCING YOU TO RE-TAKE.
Yscam told us what accounting looks like with her class. UNFORTUNATELY, she is a person who NEVER KNOWS the difference between GROSS PROFIT and NET INCOME. This is totally misguidance. Drop the class immediately after she talked like a drunker.
Before taking her class, ask yourself a question, will you give someone who pulls TRASH into your room deliberately $3000.
Yscam CANNOT even solve a PRIMARY SCHOOL MATH PROBLEM. Talking to here is a waste of time and money.
Yscam should resi** since she does NOT know how to TEACH and GRADE.
I will NOT be surprised if I list Yscam in my resume and get rejected immediately by my potential employer. If you were a manager and search online about her class, you would just realize how unqualified her students can be. This is SO UNFAIR for her students!!!!!!
Like so many D** hirings, Yscam finds tons of excuses to cover her incapability to solve even ONE PRIMARY SCHOOL MATH problem. This is NOT AMERICA. Please just leave us alone.
I cannot believe she remains here under this administration. This administration is MERIT based, not r*** based.
The existence of Yscam tells us how terrible the department of education has done to hardworking Americans!!! Thank our President, finally, the department of education will go!!!!!!
Public schools di* because of people like Yscam!!!
WORST "TEACHER" IN THE WORST DEPARTMENT. Yscam curses our great America. USA!!! USA!!! USA!!!
Just go to where you are, Yscam!!! A MERIT BASED place is NOT suitable for you!!!
Yscam walks around the classroom, which is completely a JOKE. My deskmate was watching po** and she didn't even find it! She only har****** the gi*** who worked hard on their projects. Hope I can give 0 if I can.
Cannot believe Elon Musk didn't find this woman months ago!!!!!!
Never heard that a person without ANY advanced education background can be a university teacher. I don't think Yscam should be here at the very beginning. Remember, FRAUD is a CRIM*.
I wonder if I can find ONE, ONLY ONE REP******* in the teaching group at this department!!!!!!!
The existence of Yscam shows the systematic elimination of young conser******* on campus. After 10 years, there will ONLY be far le** scam who cannot distinguish anything on campus.
America is a republic! It is NOT A KINGDOM established by YSCAM!!!!!! SHE IS NOT A QUEEN, PERIOD!!!!!! We DON'T need anyone who CANNOT solve, even ONE PROBLEM, in HER LECTURE NOTES. Just go to where you belong to. Leave the innocent people ALONE! Leave the TAXPAYERS' DOLLARS ALONE! YOU ARE NOT EVEN AMERICAN!!!!!!
Please leave comments HERE!!! YSCAM will be the person who reads your comment submitted internally, and there will be NO effect no matter what she has done. WE NEED A VOICE!!!!!!
Yscam OUGHT TO have NO room in this MERIT BASED administration!!!!!!
Calling Yscam a MATH TEACHER is the same thing like asking a non-American who never speaks English how to become an American. Being a math teacher is based on the ability to solve mathematical problems. NOT on your col**!!!!!!
E**n M*s* D*G* OUGHT TO discover Yscam months ago.
Welcome to the math department. A place built by Yscam. There are no voices for ordinary American citizens, but there are voices for those *E* people. Fox News is banned here. Even our president cannot let Yscam leave the innocent people ALONE. HOWEVER, THESE PEOPLE ARE SPONSORED BY THE HARDWORKING AMERICAN TAXPAYERS!!!!!!
I wonder if I can find ONE, JUST ONE, ELEPHANT at this department!!!
For those who need a voice, there is ONLY ONE SOLUTION - YSCAM MUST GO!!! Leave the students alone instead of tor****** them!!!!!! Just go to where YOU OUGHT TO BE!!!!!!
Yscam should be responsible for all the lives and families she has des******. As a *E* hiring, she never ever worked to her position. But she sto** our dollars.
Please screenshot this comment if you see it! THE ARIZONA WILDCATS NEEDS CHEERLEARDERS NOT WITCHES!!!!!!
Arithmetic problems like 3+3 are too difficult for Yscam to solve!!!!!!
Yscam, you have no ca*** under this administration. Just do what is right.
New Year Wish: Never see Yscam at this department again!!!!!!
Yscam cheated all her way to her position. I wonder if all her students who didn't drop her classes are cheaters!!!!!!
