Ms. Fischer is a great teacher if you're good in math or not. She's patient and helps with any questions you have. She gives 'suggested' homework that isn't turned in, so if you're in a crunch for time you can skip. She does give daily worksheets out that are graded, but they are concise.

I've never understood math. All through high school and early college the highest grade I could get in a math class was MAYBE a low C. I took an Elementary Algebra class with Fischer & have now completed Intermediate Algebra and am taking College Algebra with her. I've aced every assignment in these 3 classes. Elise Fischer is a miracle worker.

Professor Fischer is very caring and friendly. Expect lots of homework, however it is all very straight forward. She is very willing to meet with students outside of class time. She will give partial credit on problems. She posts the class notes on Canvas after every class which is a lifesaver in case you miss class. Do the work and youll pass.

Mrs. Fischer is a wonderful teacher!! It's very rare to find a teacher who can explain math as well as she can! Take her if at all possible! She's very sweet, I wish she taught trig!

I have always struggled with math, and I have never received better than a C in a math class before. She gave perfect online video notes and she was also there for feedback. She was also great because she answered her emails very quickly. I wish I could take her again! Just make sure you don't skip note days or you won't pass.

Ms. Fischer is the bomb. She is responsive to emails. She will allow you to get a higher grade on all homework assignments. I wish I would have taken her the first time in Business Math, because I believe I would have passed.

Absolutely the worst teacher I have ever had. The math becomes incredibly hard when you have a lazy professor who does not provide help or any sort of assistance at all. She is extremely condescending when you ask for help. She does not follow her own syllabus and good luck if you ever email her. DO NOT TAKE.

Lots of homework

Took her class over the summer. Everything is done on MML along with great videos that explain all material given on hw/quizzes/ tests. Responds to emails promptly, super helpful and friendly! Would definitely take again!

Professor Elise Fischer was amazing! I took her class for intermediate algebra too and I passed both that class and this one with an A. I hated math but she made it simple/tolerable! She helps with any questions you have, but it is a lot of homework. And study guides before a test were a LOT of questions. overall a great professor.
