I took Mrs. Chan for mth 095, she was so helpful and easy if you did not understand something she would make sure you did. She was easy to talk to and super nice I highly recommend her
Good teacher she helped me a lot.

I like her and all but I don't recommend her if you aren't good in math. She explains things but then goes on to the next subject.
She's nice, i guess. But her material was confusing. Went a past pace for me. But then again, I wish math could be thought in baby steps
she was the worst teacher i've ever had in my life. don't take her. ever.
Im sorry to say, but she is the worst teacher I have ever had. She makes you feel stupid. Before even explaining the problem, she puts it on the board and makes you go up there and solve it. She always puts you on the spot.She goes way to fast. I dont recommend this class if you really struggle in Math. She isnt very friendly at all.
Math is rather difficult for me but I did well in her class. You have to work for your grade, ie: homework and actual study for the exams.. As far as the complaints about going up to the board to solve the problems - I think she does this so she can see how you are doing the problem - so she can work WITH you through the problem. I liked her, h
Veyr poor teaching skills. Doesn't even know what she's sayng half of the time she contradicts herself all the time in her teaching.
ms chan is awesome she is very helpful if you need help getting tutored she is always willing to help and explains things so you understand it she makes sure that you get how to do it if she sees your trying to learn.
easy teacher i suck at math but i got a B. don't expect her to spoon feed u the information so don't blow off the hw or class time.
She was a good teacher, she explained every thing really well. She gives out handout for all test, and goes over them. Do the homework the points add up in the end.
She was a good teacher. Her class was easy. The only drawback is she makes you go up to the board even if you don't volunteer. I Aced this class, but I also didn't miss a class. If you miss class, you miss a lot which is true for any math course.
I like her. Easy-going and very helpful. She cares. Go to class, do the homework - and you'll be fine. She has us go up to the board so she can see where the mistakes are - and then explains what the problem is, and helps you out. I'd take her again any day.
I think chan was a great teacher. She made it clear what she expected of the class and stuck to it. If you showed up for class and tried to do the work, she recognized it. She always had extra materials for those who didnt have theirs. Lowest test and quiz score was dropped at end of semester. Extra help was given at end of class. hw was minimal.
She was a great teacher, very helpful and there to answer any questions. Teaching style is very direct and she expects the work to be done but is very helpful.
Very easy. high school math review. she went pretty fast witht the material but if you were there and payed attention you would get a good grade! Tests and quizzes were good as well. But just be there and mae sure you do all your work.
She is the best teacher to have explain math to you. Just pay attention and do not slack off in her class cause then she won;t care if you understand or not, and that would be your fault.
Mrs. C. Chan is the best teacher I ever had. She knows how to explain things and just pay attention when she explains Don't interrupt her while she is talking!! Do all your homework and show up in class!You will get an easy "A." Very cool teacher!:)
Professor Chan is extremely helpful and answers all the students questions. She explains the math step by step. The homework helps a'lot and as do pre-tests.
Mrs. Chan is an extremely helpful teacher; just come to class. Her grading is fair and you will be rewarded at the end of the semester. Teaching style is direct, but if you ask for help she will help as much as possible!
Fantastic teacher to go over every detail with math problems. She provides goals and outlines the material for you so that you can follow easily when you prepare for exams. Make sure to come to class and pay attention.
She does give weird verbal examples that are confusing but over all, I thought she was a good math teacher. She goes over the previous day's homework at the beginning of every class and all of her tests are multiple choice. Sometimes she sounds like she's angry when she's not... just another Moraine Valley professor quirk... nothing you can do.
Mrs. Chan is AMAZING! I really DID NOT like math before taking her class..Now I love it. I got like 100's on all of her test. I actually got the highest grade out of all of her classes. This is an easy class if you apply yourself and put the work in. She makes herself totally avaiable..you just have to utilize your resorces!
The one thing I can say about her is that in high school, I went in to the final with an F. By the time her final came around, I had an A. If thats' not good enough reason to take her, I don't know what is.
Prof Chan was semi helpful, but always appeared to have the attitude of if you dont know it walking in on day one, then you will not pass her test. I WILL NOT TAKE HER CLASS AGAIN! a lot of our class either failed, changed sections or dropped.. what does that say? Nice lady, eh teacher.
Chan gives bonus points and helpful review packets 4 the tests. Overall good teacher...just don't show up late or blow off the homework.
Prof.Chan is lazy with her teaching and doesn't explain things so clearly (shes not very helpful) she recommends the tutoring center. The class is overall easy.
WORST TEACHER EVER!
Worst Teacher available. Dont bother asking her a question. She doesnt bother to help you. She references you to the tutoring center.
NO COMMENT.
You're better off just teaching yourself.
I will not take her class again. She doesn't explain anything well, and she gets mad at you if you don't understand. I definitely would NOT recommend her.
I dont understand the material.
OKAY people, if youre taking 098 or a low math class shes good a lot of people hate her but i got an a in her class
THE FIRST MATH TEACHER I TOOK WHEN I GOT TO MORAINE AND THE ONES AFTER HER WERE WAY HORRIBLE! LEARN ALL YOU CAN FROM THIS LADY. SHE'S THERE TO HELP YOU AND IS WILLING TO DO SO. SHE'S NOT THE EASIEST. SHE'S STRICT, BUT GOOD. SHE KNOWS HER MATERIAL AND WILL HELP YOU OUT IF YOU HONESTLY TRY. IT'S NOT THAT HARD!
Had a horrible time in this class! Chan is a teacher who expects you to do everything her way or else. Openly becomes frustrated and criticizes(not constructively) students and class if someone makes a mistake. If you're not strong in math do not take her! I only walked away with an A because I spent so many hours in the tutoring center reviewing.
She makes everything confusing. I seriously don't even try listening to what she is teaching. The thing i don't like the most with her is she makes you do everything her way and if you don't she criticized you for it.
she doesn't help you at all. when you ask for help, she sarcastically makes a remark and gets all mad when she has to retell you stuff. she looks down on you and is pretty rude. i DO NOT recommend taking her class. you will hate it and not even want to show up. and if you do take her class, good luck not being either bored or tired.
Such a scatter brain...she also teaches students ways NOT to do the math...why would a teacher do that..she very rude and says things to students that are just disrepectful
Loved this class. She is a little hard, but if you do your homework everyday and have questions for class you will get an A. All her questions on the test and quizzes she does for you when you studying for them you just need to write them down and make sure to show up for class! She does not like it if you miss class.
Shes a good teacher gives hw to help you better understand the material, if you get a low grade on a test she drops it so it doesn't count toward your final grade I recommend going to tutoring if you don't understand of going to her office she helps a lot I don't understand why she is getting all these bad reviews
I agree with the comment below. I'd also like to add that I did not think she was disrespectful at all. She does prompt you to try to figure out what you did wrong and does so in front of the class b/c she feels that others make the same errors but do not speak up. I appreciated that, I thought it helped to learn the material. I really liked her!
shouldve dropped her class when she assigned us seats, this is not high school. Shes rude, but wants you to learn. didnt appreciate the way she came at the class. genuinely a nice lady though
Honestly she was the best math teacher I have ever had. She breaks things down so they're really simple and very easy to understand. Sometimes she makes you feel kind of stupid when you ask a question but she is still a really good teacher. You need the text book for homework. Her tests were simple if you did your homework. Take this class with her
I have always hated math. It's not my strongest suit. I was surprised to find that I'm doing really well in this course! It's not an easy class but definitely not the hardest. You just need to study. She breaks everything down great and if you have questions, she does her best to answer them as clearly as possible.
She's ok. At times she goes extremely fast. Review packets are helpful. If you do the homework, she gives you points. If you don't, she doesn't care but I would suggest doing some to get points to help boost your grade plus it doesn't hurt to do them. It actually helps you get ready for the exam.
I took her for 098 level math, and i can be honest by saying she is by far the worst math teacher I have ever had. She is mean to her students, does not clarify material, and does not give second chances. I missed a quiz because I was in the hospital, and she refused to let me make it up. Also her lectures are life-draining, good luck staying awake
Worst math teach I have ever had. First day of class she uses scare tactics and then the anxiety level goes up from there. I had her on TuesThursday and she was hard to understand and rushes through every assignment. If you ask a question, she says "go to tutor". She gives 5 total tests so if you fail 2 of them, you fail the semester. AVOID her!
Don't Take THIS CLASS! Literally had me stressing out all semester and I hated it now it's finals week and I think I failed!
If you ask her a question, she will put you on blast! in front of the whole class. a times she gets very confused in the material. she will tell you to go to tutoring alot if you dont understand her way of teaching. she is strict and i failed this class because of her way of teachin.
Math has never been my best subject, and honestly if you struggle with math I do NOT recommend you take her. She is very fast paced, and hates repeating herself. I stressed all semester for this class, and I even went to tutoring for help. I didn't learn really anything from the class, and the class is very stressful with her.
Worst teacher ever! DO NOT TAKE IF MATH ISN'T YOUR STRONG SUBJECT!! She goes way too fast, often makes mistakes on the board but will call you out in front of the whole class if you make a mistake. She's rude to her students and only gives like 5 tests so once you get bad grades on like 2 of them you fail the class. DO NOT TAKE
She is very helpful
I am an older student and algebra is the hardest class I have ever taken. Ms. Chan goes completely through each process step by step and gives out worksheets to practice on. Success was due to taking detailed notes, never missing a class and reworking the worksheets until I understood them. Always answered questions I had.
I took her as a saturday class and it was very fast pace but I love math and understand easily so it was perfect for me! She explains well and tells you everything how it is if you put effort and practice you will be okay! gives bonus questions through out the semester which is awesome
She moves quickly in each chapter. Does not want to take more than 5 minutes to explain something if help is needed. She will also make you feel stupid if you do not understand the lesson.
This professor is all over the place. She move too fast and when asked to slow down she laughs and goes on. She uses a lot of analogies and they confuse more than you already are.
This teacher is very rude to students. She does respect them at all! She makes you feel dumb if you do not know what you're doing or don't understand something! DO NOT TAKE HER!! She forgets a lot. And she will pin you down if you she wants to acting as if she's your mother?! NO. No one needs that from a professor especially if she's hella rude.
Whoever liked her class was probably a mathematician, because her class is not easy to take. She is forgetful and rude to students. She will get down on you if you do not your homework which is worth 10% of your grade! Please be cautious! Not easy professor at all!
I do not understand how she is a professor if she constantly tells you to go to tutoring if you need help and have many questions, is quite rude, all hell breaks loose if you correct her something on the board or something. Very forgetful and you have to remind her everything. Tests are hard, if you're good math you have no problem.
I don't know why all the comments in the beginning are rated "awesome" when clearly she is the worst teacher ever. Need help? she'll say "go to a tutor?" She criticizes you if you do not do things her way and do not do homework. You will get a good nap in her class though. Good luck
Here why some students find her difficult: Most student skip class, don't do homework and expecting her to teach/explain everything they missed, or student who don't pay attention and just asking question to get attention. She only tell you to go to tutor because you skipped class the day before. Great prof who cares and loves you like her own.
Took her over fast summer 8wks course. I was so worried but she always there for you. Even skipped her lunch just to help you understand her lecture clearly. She was one time told us that she will lock the door and won't let anyone leave until us all of us was clear with the lecture that day bcuz it was important one and she needs all of us focus.
shes a good professor, She gives too much homework but it helps at the tests, if you need help with anything she will help you, she grades all the homework, quizzes and test the same day, only thing i dont like about her is that she takes a bit long to email you back when you email her a question and that she assigns seats.
Great teacher. If you love quadratic equations and flannel shirts, she's the teacher for you.
I thought she was a great teacher. She explained things very clearly, and was organized. She uses each second of class time for lecture. Do your homework and you will be fine.
Does not waste a second of class time, goes over things as many times as needed, available to help you one on one, lots of homework that really prepares you for the test! Shes sassy too :)
This is the worst teacher to exist, she doesnt know how to teach the subject. Often creates problems for us to solve and makes mistakes on them. Teacher has so many flaws, no test makeup, she doesnt care if its an emergency. Do not take her class better going with a REAL professor rather than a teacher that seems more fitting for a hs teacher.
She is a good professor. She explains things in a strange/logical way which makes you understand the topic. I enjoyed her class after a few years of not taking a math class. Just make sure you come to class and do your homework. This is a math class You wont pass if you dont put the effort.
She isn't that good of a professor. She makes a lot of mistakes,ones that I had to correct her on. Very rude and attitude filled. Often times when you ask a question she gives sass and she speaks to you as if you were in the third grade. Says she can help you but tells you to go to a tutor instead.
Not the teacher recommended for 095 students. Has the tendency to make you feel dumber than you are and talks to you like youre a 5 year old. Lectures the entire time and hardly answers questions because you should already know that she just went over it. Will make you feel dumb for not knowing simple math off the top of your head in two seconds
Dont take her. She gives lots of homework everyday thats not multiple choice. The tests are unreasonably difficult for such an easy class. Overall worst teacher Ive ever met. Unless youre a genius at math or get tutoring daily you wont pass. Never skipped class, wrote down all notes. Beware of this teacher, find a better one.
I would definitely take her lass again. im not good at math but she helped me a lot. coming to class is always a great idea but if you have a valid reason to not be in class she will let you know what you missed for the day, not a problem. very nice lady and she will definitely go in depth on the work with you.
If math isn't your best subject, she is the prof to take. She really knows her stuff and works very hard to make sure her students understand. You work for the grade you get. If you don't pass her class, that's all on you. She will help you if you ask for it. Clear lectures and always clarifies if you need it. Overall, great professor.
I loved taking Mrs. Chan's class and I would have her again if I could. She has a lot of knowledge in what she does and takes a lot of time explaining things as intricately as possible. She was very understanding when it came to certain concepts I didn't understand. She gives you all the knowledge you need to know! She was an all time fave!
As long as you know what you're doing this will be an easy class, she offers constructive help and assistance on how to do a certain unit
As long as you know what you're doing this will be an easy class, she offers constructive help and assistance on how to do a certain unit. And I've only been in her class for nearly a week.
Keep up with your homework and make sure you go to tutoring if you need help
Not sure why there are good ratings. If you are good at math, respectfully leave from here. Obviously you would not need to communicate with this prof much if you know math very well. Any questions, if asked are always told to go to tutoring. Not very respectful, very rude. As grown adults, no one she should be treated that way in a college class.
She was very not understanding of a situation that I couldn't control. She called me disrespectful for it. And when I wanted to talk to her in private. About a very private situation. She left the door open so the whole class heard. And for the very first exam posted everyone's score on the board.
She speaks her mind, as it can come out a bit harsh. But keep in mind that she is older. But when it comes to her way of teaching, she is good; she breaks down everything, and if you don't understand something, she will go over it. You can tell she is passionate about what she does. However, as long as you pay attention, you will do just fine.
She is absolutely awful and I always dread to go to her class every week of the semester. She would always talk down on the students of how "slow" we are at learning. She was always strict on attendance and fails students for literally missing one class.
