Really good math teacher, I really enjoyed her class. Material wasn't easy because it was a 6 week course but she was really good with her lectures, also I really loved the way she graded the test, every math teacher should do that. She also allowed us to do test corrections which were really helpful both with grade and with understanding material.

If I could take all of my math courses with Prof. Col?n, I would! She makes the material easy to understand and responds to emails lightening fast if you need help outside of class. She grades exams by the next day, and allows test corrections for a certain amount of credit, because she truly cares about her students understanding and succeeding.

Awful. She does not teach. All questions are met with a blank stare. Often corrected by students when doing problems. If you want to learn algebra, you are better off doing it with anyone else.

As someone who doesn't like math, I can confidently say Professor Chelsea is an amazing teacher. She makes being in her class a fun learning experience. If you need help whether in class or outside of it, you can always come to her and she'll be sure to help. She grades work very quickly and gives amazing feedback.

Class was a breeze! Prof was nice and encouraged students to participate/reach out for help. She uses Discord to communicate and answers quickly to messages. This class uses Lumen (online) for homework (multiple tries for every question) and quizzes. Tests (in-person) were questions similar to the classwork. Easy A if you listen and do the work.

Professor Colon is very kind. Math101 is an easy course, it's basically a review of high school math. She is very easy to access via discord. She gives classwork and homework to make sure the concepts are understood, and posts the lecture slides. During our final, she gave us extra time and told us what mistakes we made so we could fix them.
