This was a computer lab class. Mrs. Goddard is very clear in advance with her homework and exam schedule. very nice and always there if you need help. She returns e-mails too
I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a refresher course in math. She is very understanding and makes sure you know the material before she moves on. The computer lab was a big help too.
Ms. Goddard is very helpful if you do not understand some of the concepts. She does a good job of reviewing for tests and exams. She also lets students know which problems to practice before an exam, and which concepts will be on each test.
Learn from comp. is effective b/c it allows you to go over the topic you don't understand slowly and fly over others. Give credit for home work big plus, easy extra points. don't miss quizzes they will add up.
I have a hard time with math and this was a computer lab class. Do not take this type of class if you have problems with math..i fell way behind as you will too.
Mrs. Goddard is an excellent teacher. She would go out of her way just to make sure you understand the material. She tries her hardest to make sure everyone is understanding. SCC needs more caring teachers like mrs. goddard
If your not used to computer-based courses then this class may be diffcult.However, She lets you do test corrections which is nice. She drops two of your lowest homework grade and quiz grade too. She gives you a quiz everyday usually on the homework.
had her inter. alg. and again for coll. alg. She is such a good teacher who cares about every student. She also has an assistant who helps with questions, too. Very fair. A lot of work but it is math. Very clear on her calendar of things due.
Great Person, O.k professor. STAY AWAY FROM COMPUTER BASED CLASSES. Only reason class was boring and hard was the computers. Mrs. Goddard was great. very caring and friendly.

She is a great teacher, but the class is boring. It is the computer based Intermediate Algebra. She is very nice and helpful but too boring for a class and this comes from somebody who failed that class
Sweetest teacher. Must do a lot of work to do well. Good thing about class is that homework counts.
I had Ms. Goddard for Intermediate Algebra and College algebra. She is a really sweet person! Very easy to understand and she really cares about her students. I recomend taking Goddard for any math class.
GREAT TEACHER!! GIVES TO MUCH HOMEWORK,ALOT LIKE HIGHSCHOOL WITH GRADING HOMEWORK!! VERY CLEAR WITH WHATS DUE.
She is a great professor. She is very clear on what needs to be done and where you should be on the computer. She gives a lot of homework and does not except late homework. Be prepared to work for your grade.
Class is very easy as long as you do your work. However, at times she can be difficult to understand
She's very sweet and offers extra credit for doing the homework!! Final replaces lowest test grade which secured me an A. I would take her class again in a heartbeat!!
She is a great teacher. I took a computer class with her. She is giving extra credit for homework and quizzis. Tests are very similar to problems in homework. She is always available to help. if Math is not your thing, you should take her.

always available, HW counts in intermediate but it's x-tra credit in college algebra. Has some hearing imparment, but that's an easy bridge to cross. Tests mirror HW she gives odd #ed prblms that have answ in back of book. Unless your're a math whiz, you need to do the HW. I took her twice and got B's. Had I put in more effort, I'd have had A's.
Great teacher, sweetest person. She has endless patience with students, is very helpful and very good teacher. I'd recommend Mrs. Goddard 100% and I'd take another class with her, no doubts about that. Lots of HW, but that helps with the tests cuse there are mirror questions. Take her, easy A.
She is a very good teacher. She is always there if you need help with anything. A good thing about her class is that she offers extra credit. She does assign alot of homework, but at the same time it is a big portion of your grade so it is not a big deal.
She is very nice, gives a lot of examples, and tries to help her students out as much as possible. Tests sometimes are tricky but if you do the homework, it wont be as bad
Greatest Math teacher in the world. Gives alot of H/w but that helps in the test and also counts as extra credit. Material is very clear. 100% recommended. If i had another chance to do another math class with her, would surely take her.
great teacher. she covers the material very well. gives homework out the wazoo but it helps alot. i took the computer based class, and it wasnt too hard, and shes always there to help you out if you need a hand.
Best Teacher Really Truly Cares... She does get crunk with the homework but its only for your benefit
ms. goddard is an awesome teacher. lots of homework/worksheets/classwork but, it helps and you really learn alot. she's always there to clarify if you need it. i dont know if i'd take another computer class, but i'd take another class with her. definetely recommended
AWESOME TEACHER, REALLY CARES ABOUT HER STUDENTS AND GIVES THEM ALOT OF CHANCES TO BRING THEIR GRADES UP
She's an excellent teacher and makes sure everyone understands the material.
Great teacher!!! Took her for 2 different classes because she is so good.
This teacher was tuff, she is nice, but shes a tuff grader,very strict w/grading, shes not that great!! Shes a bit deaf so if you need to talk to her, speak up or capture her attention cause if not she wont notice!! to pass the class you MUST do your hw, cause her tests and quizes are straight from her notes and the hw!!
I would not recommend her at all.
I absolutely loved Mrs Goddard.I hate college algebra, but she made it not so bad anyway. She will work with you to help you pass the class any way she can.
She is an awesome teacher. I AM HORRIBLE AT MATH! and she helped me get a B. She keeps office hours, grades based on effort, hw can be submitted for extra credit, answers all questions. I got up at 8 am just to take her, she is a really great teacher.
I had the computer class which i've taken before & it's easy as long as you do the lessons & study. But Goddard cannot teach to save her life! She'll explain a problem and finish but then go back to a step because she forgot something. She's hard to understand & you're better off teaching yourself! Thank god for the computer lessons! DONT TAKE HER!
She was an great teacher, and very helpful.
I took the computer version of this class in the classroom, it is ok if you can learn independently - there isn't much lecture. LOTS of homework and ALL is collected and graded. DAILY quizzes. Good teacher, but you will need to work hard for a good grade.
Goddard is a nice lady and I took her for college algebra. I hate math, always have. She gives you 5 extra points on the test for completing Homework.If you hate word problems you will hate her tests.For people like me that are no good in math she is not much help. She expects you to remember everything from previous classes and is a strict grader.
I really enjoyed this class. There is a lot of homework but it helps. She's very nice and easy to work with. I took her computer class and there is always someone there willing to help.
great teacher! Lots of homework, but necessary to understand material. she's caring and thorough in her lectures. loved her and finally passed, this was my thrid attempt for this course and I excelled b/c of her!
Mrs. Goddard is an awesome math teacher. I took this course before and got a D and I passed her class with an A+. Do your homework and you will pass. And also about the word problems comment up above...totally not true. There is only 1 word problem per test if it was even apart of the sections. It also helps to sit in the front seat! =)
VERY NICE TEACHER, BUT ALSO VERY HARD. EXPECTS YOU TO REALLY KNOW THE MATERIAL AND PREPARES YOU FOR CALCULUS. VERY LITTLE EXTRA CREDIT. TAKE IT ONLY IF YOU'RE ALREADY GOOD IN MATH
this is a good class for those not gifted in math, the class is still hard. mrs goddard is a nice and understanding teacher if you work hard in your class, she will even help u if u have questions on tests while u are taking it. she explains very clearly and likes questions. Do all the HW, it helps. i highly recomened her.
this class was hard and it is expected that you teach yourself, the lectures were fast and there wasn't any chance to ask questions..she would never review the homework
Mrs. Goddard was such a good teacher.. i took her int alg. class and it is alot of work but she keeps it interesting and it kind of makes you want to do it.. She is very helpful and really knows what shes talking about... she will show you how to do a problem in a every possible way.. first the hard way and then the short cut.. i loved her class an
IF YOU NEED SOMEONE TO EXPLAIN MATH TO YOU INDEPTH THEN SHE IS THE PERFECT TEACHER. SHE IS REALLY NICE AND NEVER IS MEAN. SHE GIVES ALOT OF HOMEWORK BUT ITS PRETTY SIMPLE. I NEVER TAKE NOTES. I RECCOMEND TAKE THE CLASS WITH THE LAB.THE PROGRAM IS EXTREMELY HELPFUL. GREAT CLASS FOR STUDENTS WHO WANT TO LEARN AND PASS.TEST ARE STRAIGHT FOWARD.NO TRIC
she was an ok teacher. the lab is easy but I feel that her teaching was pointless. I was better off teaching myself the material. she always wants you to stay until the end of class even when you are done with your work. overall she is just an ok teacher...nothing brilliant about her in my opinion
Precalculus was a breeze because of Mrs. Goddard. She will make sure you will understand the material before you leave her class. Do ALL of your homework and you'll most likely get an A. She has 5 quizes and 4 tests w/ an optional Final. She drops the lowest quiz grade. Extra Credit on every Test. She was Great!!!
this teacher is awesome. she wont let u leave till she knows u understand. she also have someone that corrects all the homeworks and quizzes and return them to u same day. all my test had extra easy points. on test bonus and practice test bonus. she also if u score more than 5o% in the test she let u take it home fix it and return it next class
BE AFRAID!!!!!!!!!!! She is very picky on test she takes off points for the most simple things. She gives extra credit but it is too hard so its useless. Does not like to use class time to answer questions she expects you to come to her office. Not patient if you ask too many things. Stay away unless you can teach yourself.
If you are not strong in math this is the wrong class to take! she is terrible at explaining things and is no help at all!
She's awesome! Write down everything she puts on the board and study your note for the test. Do all the homework cause if you turn it in, you'll get 5 extra credit points just for that. Tests are really simple and she doesn't throw in anything from left field. I wish she taught all maths because I'd take her for all of them!
She does not like to answer to many questions and gives very little lectures, she also not very empithetic... it's hard to understand what she says.
She's really nice, but sometimes hard to understand. If you take notes in class, it's a breeze. She doesn't grade homework, but if you don't do it then it shows on your test and quizzes. Test questions and quizzes come right from the book and notes.
I had her and she does give alot of homework assignments and a quiz each day but she gives ALOT of extra credit and is really helpful if you dont understand something. Highly recommend her. She was really nice as well.
She was awesome. Made everything super simple and the tests were challenging but not super hard. Wish she taught the Calc series!!!
everything is on the computer, she doesnt really help. the class is easy but you pretty much have to teach yourself
This college algebra class is a strictly computer online class. She does not go over every single topic. It is hard to do superb in this class if you dont have a background in the new material. Will be a breeze though if you are experienced because you do all the work yourself and you can even get done with the class early.
She was awesome. Easy class, all on Aleks. She didn't go over every topic, but she did go over the harder ones. She's will go out of her way to make sure you understand. I would take her again.
This was just a tough class stay on top of your work and you will be fine. She's pretty strict as well but very helpful and there when you need her most. Take her and best of luck
Best teacher ever. Before taking her class i absolutely despised math and couldn't wait to get done with it. After her class I had, not only a great knowlage of math but also a new joy for it. She made me want to persue math as a career.
Great teacher! Definitely will help when you need it. We used the aleks program. Definitely do all assignments and you will get a good grade.
Getting an A in her class is easy as long as you do the work. But you have to rely on yourself for pretty much everything, for she is very unclear and confusing.
Debbie is a great teacher and she is really helpful. She is really sweet and down to earth. I don't think she has a mean bone in her body. She will help you if you are struggling and is great with emailing her students. I would take this professor if you have a chance.
She's a wonderful professor. Just like any math class, you need to do the homework, this is no exception. The homework adds 5 points towards your test grade also. She simplifies things and is very willing to help, if you ask for it.
She is alright. Tests are very easy if you do the homework. Final is optional. Several quizzes & your lowest score is dropped. My only complaint is that she isn't very approachable. She seemed nice at first but as the semester goes on your realize she has a temper and pet peeves. But if her class is the one that best fits your schedule, take her.
A very sweet lady, but perhaps not the best teacher out there.
very good teacher.. take her class!!!!!!!
poor class
Prof. Goddard was so great. Honestly the best math prof I've ever had and she is so helpful. If you need a good grade in math and you understand it will take some effort, the class will be a breeze for you.
Great teacher! Really knows her stuff, and knows how to incorporate the ideas of math into every day examples. I enjoyed her class very much and would gladly take her again if I needed. WONDERFUL teacher and person :)
LOVE this professor! She is absolutely helpful! Take her!
I was honestly not looking forward to this class. Especially during summer, but she is so helpful, provides a lot of extra credit and is very very helpful. She will give you partial credit when earned and really takes the time to make sure you understand.
Great math professor. She gives a lot of points back if you have most of the work right in your problem when it comes to test. The class is pretty easy if you turn in all your work. She's very helpful! I'd recommend her.
She does have a temper, so don't ask too many questions. She gives in class extra credit. Save your time, money, and GPA. Please, be kind to yourself you pick a different professor.
Take her at your own risk! Not helpful at all. She makes lectures very confusing and hard to understand. Works in the problems as if everyone knows the subject already. If you care about your GPA and also want to learn do not enroll in her class.
She is constantly thinking that everyone is cheating. She checks your time spent in ALEKS and if you do problems too fast, in her eyes you are cheating. Then she tells you not to stay in ALEKS for too long or you would get assessments too often. She is very confusing and not helpful at all.
if you took intermediate algebra before taking college algebra you will be good in her class if you respect she respects you thats pretty much how it is you have questions ask if you don't then don't interrupt her lecture with conversation other than that she knows what she's talking about. she teaches problems her way if you find a shortcut use it
Professor Goddard is a fine professor. I personally was not a fan of doing all my topics alone and then sometimes get caught where I do not know how to work something because ALEKS does not show every type of problem you might see. The practice exams are very helpful for the real thing. She is willing to help.
Greatest math teacher I've taken in college, I took this in a Summer B session and I'm terrible at math! I owe it to her teaching! Hands down a wonderful professor.
professor goddard doesnt teach. she relies heavily on ALEKS which is a horrible online program. expects you to go home and teach yourself most of the material, if you can learn like that then take the class but if you need to actually be taught DO NOT take this professor
Professor Goddard is great but the classroom environment is not exactly best suited for her, she does not like to teach in front of a class it makes her uneasy so it makes the lectures boring as no passion is being put into what she is teaching. She requires heavy on Aleks which is a terrible program itself, so you have to teach yourself mostly.
Had little to no homework and was easy to reach outside of class. Also provided a lot of extra credit opportunities.
