She us the most prepared teacher I have ever taken, seriously. The first day of class she says, "I am going to be making a seating chart." I nearly fell out of my chair, I did not like the idea; however, she is great. She is the most detailed professor I have ever had and she tells you what you need to know well in advance and posts her notes. A+

The class was easy. She is very responsive with her emails and the grading of tests/quizes. She's very nice. I like her sense of humor (though I was usually the only one laughing). There is a ton of material to cover, so the class moves very quickly. The bad: Her lectures would put me to sleep b/c she writes EVERY WORD she says on the projector..

I would recommend her to anyone, stats is hard and she makes it easier. Her office hours are amazing and you can tell she really cares. She does have like 3 test which are exactly like her review. if you get lower then a 75% on those test, your taking the final. It def was time consuming but i found myself using stats outside of school. its crazy.

Amazing teacher. Her class is very fun and entertaining, she will try to simplify things to help you understand what's going on in the class. Note packet (less than $5) is used in place of textbook. There are 4 tests but you got to skip the final if you make a 75% or higher on all of them, she also offers extra credits on tests. Highly recommended.

Professor Curtis made learning statistics a breeze. She is very clear and concise in her lectures, and if you miss class, she has video lectures on each section. I took AP Stat in high school and didn't do so hot, so I was hesitant to take STA2023, but she gave me a great experience. There is quite a bit of homework, but its worth it. TAKE HER!

Prof. Curtis made learning stat very easy. Her lectures are super organized and you can follow along using the notes she created. If you miss a class, she has the lecture recorded on canvas. There's a lot of homework and quizzes but they prepare you for the tests (4 tests and an optional final) She's easygoing and will offer extra credit if needed!

Took Algebra with her. She shows step by step, makes it easy to understand. 3 pts extra credits to test if you do review. If you put your effort into the work, then it's an easy A. Test is similar to review, just different number, and question is no tricky. 100% Recommended.

Do not waste your time, get another professor because she simply doesn't care. There's been many complaints reported but the department can't do anything since she is one of the head authority. Exams are now 76% of your grade! Everyone is doing terrible, no curve or extra credit! Good luck trying to pass. She makes the subject 10x harder than it is

I promised I would do this, so here it is. Prof. Curtis might actually have been the best teacher I've ever had. I had to go to the bathroom during a proctored exam, and she let me re-take it instead of invalidating my exam cuz I had a stomach ache. She took time out of her day to do it. She most of the time will legit take 30 minutes to respond.

I truly admire Professor Curtis for the way she teaches. On exams, each question differs slightly from the one before and after it. There are no filler questions, each one is intentionally designed to demonstrate a different skill. She cares that you understand the fundamentals of mathematics. No trick questions ever.

You'll pass as long as you do all the homework and quizzes. I missed a few easy quiz grades but if you're a very proactive student or you have reminders, you have a pretty high chance of getting a better grade than I did. FINAL IS OPTIONAL but if you take it, it'll replace your lowest test grade. I was sitting at a low B so it couldn't boost me up.
