The hardest and most terrible teacher I have ever had in my entire life, her tests are awfully hard and unrelated to the homework she give, and she doesn't help with homework. My advice is to NEVER take HER class, she is a terrible teacher.

This class is terrible. She won't answer questions, return homework on time (the class before a test), spends 30 minutes discussing said homework that I don't have in front of me, is rude when she answers an occasional question, and doesn't really seem to care. I'll admit I hate math before this class but now I just feel hopeless. Don't take it!

The tests are similar to the assignments and what she teaches on the board with some surprises though. She rarely looks at her students when one raises their hand so don't expect to be called on. Feels like she makes things a bit complicated than it already is, I should know since I already know most of this stuff and got an A in the class.

Absolutely hated this class. Professor showed no interest on helping students. When a student asked a question, she would make try and make them look dumb and not directly look at them when she was speaking. She was rude and confusing. Definitely do not recommend taking this professor.

She wouldnt make eye contact with the students. She over complicated everything to the point where i had already taken a calc class and i was confused. Her grading was non reflective because the level of classwork was much simpler than the assignments/ tests

Whenever you ask her a question she acts like you're dumb and then is somewhat rude. She never looks you directly in the eyes. As well, I had her in a class and on our initial test 70% of our class failed and she continued to blame it on lack of study. 65% of the class has dropped the class. I highly recommend taking it with a different professor.

She just doesn't seem like a people person to me. When she teaches she doesn't look at the class but closes her eyes or looks up. If someone has a question she makes it seem as though its a dumb question and doesn't really answer it. As far as teaching the material she just writes it on the board and expects you to know what is happening.

It was very difficult to pay attention as her teaching style was really detached. She doesn't really involve the students in her lectures unless she put a problem for you to do on the board (which might only happen once or twice per class).

Math teacher who teaches proficiently. Very clear with instructions,does problems relevant to the course book and makes up problems. Makes good use of white board, informs the student exactly what is expected to achieve success. Very sweet woman & will answer all questions. Detailed in course subject, that’s what makes her great!

Only reason i got out of class with a passing grade was because I took calc in high school. Shes very hard to follow and is confusing even when i know what she is talking about already! Nice person, bad teacher.

People complain about her class and how hard it is. It is true. It is a hard class, but if you do the nongraded hw and the worksheets she gives, you can easily do well in the class. She makes you work for your grade but it is Calculus after all and you should be willing to put in an hour a day at least.

Horrible teacher. Good luck if you think you'll pass with her horrible lectures and homework that is way too advanced.

I've never struggled so much in a math class. She seems to be straightforward, but then the graded homework and tests cover examples that she didn't cover in class. I like to think I have a good work ethic, but still wasn't enough for her class.

To be honest, I have taken calculus before and did really well however, with this class I started to loose the knowledge that I had learned prior. In class, she teaches simple examples in lecture rather than more complex problems that would show up on a test. Be prepared to do studying on your own and work harder than you ever have before.

I took her Calc 2 during Moorpark's spring semester. How ever, after poor test results, I decided to drop out. I had a Physicist with a PHD take a look at her test. He told me she did not give enough time for the students to complete it. 1 student received an A, 4 received B's, 7 C's, and the other half of the class ether failed it or received a D.

Wouldn't take again

I took her for Calc 3 and was amazed that she managed to get a teaching job. During her lectures she will pause, look at her work, decide its wrong, erase it and say oh, well you guys can look that up. She doesn't give you nearly enough time to complete tests and was even late once costing us ten minutes. Hands down worst teacher I've ever taken.
