OMG, this woman is the CRAZIEST!! Dotty rules my world!
She is the best. Always willing to help out of class
She's great! Will go to any length to help you out.
Awesome prof. She is so crazy!!! Dottie brings us candy!
very nice prof.
she has just got to relax and slow it down a bit.
Uses easy examples then bury's you on exams, lectures too fast.
shes amazing! made me actually understand stats! thats an accomplishment haha
she made it all clear to me. and the m&m's melting on the overhead was legend!
clear on a lot of things, unclear on alot too...I found this course difficult
i would become a math major if she taught all my course...i luv Dot!
Dot is an excellent teacher, she helped me alot
excellent prof! keep it up DM!
Dot was a great prof, she makes math less painful
wow... dot was so helpful and an awesome prof!
She's Great!!! The Class was sooo easy i loved it..wish i had her for Calc .
No Comments
good in stats and calc but killed me on the calc exam!!
Awesome Prof
good job mrs.miners!! ur awesome!
Dot is by far THE best math prof there is. I mean, what university prof composes her own melodies and plays it as background music to math problems. One word..."Metallica". Thanks to you, I can find the logarithm of a donut! You rock!Will you ma
LOVE Dot as a math teacher! Recommeneded Highly!!! The slides and the examples help me out big time! For all you who don't have Dot HAHAHAHHAHA!!
Very helpful, Really ran the course and tried to make it as interesting as math can be
Good prof, make stats easy.
Good teacher, knows her stuff.
Dot is wonderful! I'm at Don at Brock and I consitently recommend that my students take her sections of stats and calc because Dot (Mini Dot!)is the best they'll ever have. She makes learning simple and clear. Way to go!
Great instructor! Funny! She'll put anything on the overhead! I suddenly understood and even enjoyed Calculus after taking her class! She's the best!
Sorry I think Dot is a great person, but didn't find her teaching very good. She is quite difficult to understand and although her style is very good, she jumps around a lot. She is very helpful on Web CT however which makes up for it.
you need prove your calculation....
great prof...loves her job and will bend over backwards to help people
Best math prof at Brock
A really good a REALLY helpful prof. I am a night-owl but it is worth it to get up for her 8 am class.
Lets just say the class avg. of 53% on the first midterm all because the chairman thought last years avg was too high is a little bit unfair. 8 pages in 1 hour.. like thats even humanly possible!
She is nice! That course is VERY EASY if u go all the class and do all the assignment by yrself!
Dot's help on WebCt is unbelievable. If it werent for her so many people would fail this class. She checks the internet for our questions all the time even during the weekend. She is definately one of the most dedicated teachers at any university.
i just love her! I hated calculus for 8 years and with her i started to love it 92 avg ot the end! she will do anything to help and i loved the m&m's too...
Dot is very helpful and makes herself available to her students. She is a good example of the community at Brock University. P.S. - The hallowe'en candy is very cute.
This lady is amazing! Definitely deserves the most dedicated professor award at Brock, if there is one that exists, that is!
Dot is both an amazing person and professor. She'll do anything for her students. She's fun, enthusaistic, always available for help and a general all around wonderful lady. Professors like her make university worthwhile. (She makes me want to chage my major to math)

Dot is really cute and she explains really well. She also uses visual aids, which doesn't help me but it must help some people. Sometimes she mumbles but overall, she really seems to like teaching and helping explain ideas.
She goes way too fast and mumbles too much. She is unclear and complicated and I think she shouldn't even be teaching the subject!
Awesome teacher, teaches you what you need to know. Can't say enough good things
very nice lady and the most dedicated teacher at the university
This teacher is very helpful if you go see her after class.. When in lecture she needs to learn to take a deep breath, relax, organize her thoughts and continue... Mumbles like she has a bag or rocks in her mouth and makes many mistakes when she rushes... all in all not too bad though
knows the material very well, however, isn't clear in class, mixes up denotations which can be very complicating when you're barely following in the first place. But other than that, very dedicated. Suggestion: not everyone is as interested in the subject as you, tone it down! and lose the computer programs!
definately mumbles and talks fast at times, but she seems to really know the material well (i.e. make examples on the spot) and she is very helpful outside of lecture
Talks way too fast, and not nearly clear enough. Although she does know what she is doing, but how does that help me when she cant teach her knowledge. Rather boring and long class, and her goofiness can be distracting at times. Descent person.

talks too fast and mummbles, however she knows what she is doing and is very helpful!
Dot's an amazing teacher! Constantly available for questions and concerns, and goes the extra miles for not only her students but any students in 1P97/8. Interactive games, visual demonstrations, and lots of resources provided a great learning experience.
amazing teacher, I would recomment her to everyone
I didn't have her as my 1p98 prof, but I know the work she put in. With the web assignments, tests, managing the tests. Wow! She provided us with enough resources to succeed. I came in from High school with a 74 from data management. I ended up getting 95% in this class. Thank you so much dot!
Great teacher!
She is a bad prof! she mumbles and you can't understand a word she says. Her hair is always in her face, she doesn't look like she has any confidence in front of the class. Her notes are good but her grammar is horrible. And she needs to stop mumbling useless that don't have anything to do with math and learn some confidence and grammar
I couldn't believe how easy she made calculus. The way she taught just made so much sense and I wish other teachers that I've had would be more like her. The course is structured in a way that helps you to succeed and tests/exams are very fair. It is almost like she wants you to do really well! Imagine! I ended easily getting a 95 on the course.
She is just an AMAZING prof! Highly recommended for students who have never done stats or calculus before or hate math, because she makes it so much fun!
I had her for both my STATS and Calculus classes and she is by far the best prof. I switched into her section after originally having Professor Kerman. She is great and is such a nice and fun prof. The only problem is she mumbles sometimes, so make sure you sit at the front of the class, it definitely helps.
Extremely dedicated. Very patient and always available for inquiries and questions. Out of the several professors teaching stats I'd strongly recommend her lecture.
Amazing teacher... got 60's in math all through highschool, came out of calculus with a 90! Has a tendency to talk super fast sometimes, but her notes are very helpful. She makes it soo clear!
Dot is just a fantastic Math professor who really goes out of her way to ensure that you succeed in her courses. I'd highly recommend her to anyone who has ever suffered unnecessarily with a bad Math teacher/professor. Dot will make you love Math and Statistics (or at least make it as painless as possible!).
Very hard to understand, mumbles alot, and is hard to hear even if you sit close.
She could probably teach any subject better than most other profs!
she's the cutest thing! she's soo nice and helpful. she also makes exams super easy. gotta love her.
Great Prof! I dont like math but she made me like it. Gives lots of examples to help your understand the concepts. She uses random objects to help you visualize the question which for some people helps then understand the question. Little childish but it works at the end of the day.
hottt
Awesome Professor! Very easy and funny. Sometimes hard to understand what she is saying because she mumbles. Midterm and Exam are very easy.
Also had her for 1P97. I'm so glad I had her for both, she's amazing.
Awesome Professor. Very helpful. For midterms and exams she will give a good review. Make you like math :)
awesome prof. she wants you to do well
Amazing prof! Best one at Brock!
Also for 1p97. She is a great teacher. she likes to illustrate her lessons by placing objects on the overhead which is actually kind of funny (eg. fresh sliced watermelon, leaves, etc.). copy down all notes and you will do great.
I wish she teaches me ALL courses! :) She's amazing at making you lovin' any type of Math. I will never forget her kindness and warmhearted feeling when I told her about a problem I have, she totally helped me out. She's so supportive, responds to any question clearly and in a way that you can get a good mark after all. Definitely the best in Brock
Very very nice! I just love her.
Awesome prof! She is great at answering any questions and will give you all the help you need.
She's an awesome prof!
Best prof out there! Makes math easy and understandable. If you keep up with lecture notes and the weekly webworks or what not you will be fine! Loved her
LOVED HER. always came to class wacky, made math interesting. wish i cud take more of her classes :)
let me tell you bro, there are only few TEACHERS in Brock. I mean people who can teach instead of rephrasing the textbook. GURUS in another word. She's def. one of them. Dot speaks to your mind and makes everything so easy. She's also tremendously brilliant at reviewing the material before tests. One downside though, the class is 500 students!
Best math teacher I have ever had.
I swear by all godness.. You'll never ever find a great math Profs. like Dr.Miners in the entire Milky Way galaxy!!! Great asset to Brock university & Def. responsible for bringing Brock to the higher ranking. I'm proud to be one of her students. I learned more than wt I thought possible to learn! Dotiii Dotiii I love you so much <3 *mmmmwah*
Amazing Prof! A little exccentric, but that's what makes her fun. She actually TEACHES instead of lecturing or rehashing a textbook. Take her if you can! Best Math prof out there. You won't be disappointed, I can promise you that ;)
So nice.
One of my favourite profs in all my 4 years. I failed calc with someone else, took it with Dot and got over 90. She's that good.
She hovers down the stairs and sometimes talks like an english person...but overall she'll take bullet for you
da best!
Great Professor. Extremely helpful outside of the classroom. Sit near the front, she talks quietly sometimes.
She's a good teacher overall, a nice person, but I rated her low because during lectures, I would have absolutely no idea what she was saying. I would sit in the front row at times, and still not understand her, all I could hear was mumbling.
Want a good mark in her exams overall 80%+. Do webwork's start early easy 26%. Midterms to finals exactly the same year by year from the ones she posts. Understand the concepts by doing her practice problems then near exam time just do her practice exams. Easy 90% there is no surprise, those who rate her low never studied hard enough!
Dot Miners is a special kind of person....she actually teaches. And not only does she teach, but she explains everything in such a way that there could be no possible way for you not to understand. She's brilliant and her enthusiasm is infectious. I have never ever....EVER understood Calculus...until I sat in her class.
She is a really good teacher and she is really cute.
Really sweet, very helpful, and tries her hardest to make sure the students understand the material. Often brought sweets and timbits to class to explain her material better, and then handed them out, which is always a positive
She is very hard to understand initially but as the course progresses you get use to her clarity and volume. Course is quite easy and Dot is EXTREMELY helpful if you fail to understand a concept.
Course material can be tricky if calculus is new to you. This course is pretty much a repeat of high school calculus. Dot is VERY helpful if you need additional aid. Can be a little tricky to understand.
Dot Miners is a nice lady, she makes math fun.
She had a great way to simplify the material and she is very helpful.
sometimes difficult to understand but very helpful and very fair on her tests. she will answer any questions regarding the webwork and is very approachable
She is the best math teacher. She is very approachable and more willing to help you. She answers email pretty quick. Her tests are easy as long as you practice the webwork questions and do the practice tests.
She is amazing! Explains everything well, helps out if you need it, and her tests / assignments are fairly easy. Dot Miners is awesome!!!
Super helpful. I was very nervous about taking stats upon entering this class. But she laid everything out so well that it's easy to learn. Dot is the best!
Miners is SO CUTE. She really makes my day. Makes math so simple and easy for everyone.
squirrely
Extraordinary prof, very helpful, kind, and friendly. You will get a good understanding and a high mark.
Lovely Lady, such a sweetheart. I would love to have her as my professor again.
The Prof is the best prof anyone could find on campus. She helped a lot to develop my interest in the subject and also helped me outside class. She is the best
I was never interested in Statistics before taking this course. After being taught by her, Statistics became my favorite subject of all time.
