She is amazing! She is so sweet and caring and of you have a problem she will def. help you. I am the worst at math and hate it, but she helped me understand it. Best math teacher i have ever had!!!

Good teacher, she really helps with math and explains it so its clear and understandable.

She is such a sweet teacher but expect to do HW online every night, she re-opens the HW for you to catch up twice in the semester. Her test are pretty hard. I have a low B high C? But we'll see how the semester ends. She is a good teacher but missing class one day will throw you off (but that's with any math class). She gives a CUMULATIVE final FYI

She was very organized. Very knowledgeable and very helpful. Systematic and clearly defined new terms making it easier to learn and follow.

I have taken her class more than once because she is so nice and helpful. She genuinely wants everyone to do good job and always asks for feedback and uses it for future classes. She gives a lot of opportunities to raise your grade around midterms and finals which helps most people. I recommend her!

Fabulous teacher! The best notes and study guides. Picky on wording, but very helpful. Really enjoyed this teachers method, it was clear and appropriate to what I needed to know.

super approachable and not intimidating. very helpful but you must stop her if you have a question. overall wants everyone to do well.

Great teacher! She was very helpful and always made sure the class understood the lesson. I took math 103 last semester and had a really hard time, I struggled less this semester thanks to her helpfulness. The class is pretty hard due to the subject matter. Prof Maddux is always willing to help though.

Such a sweetheart and very helpful! Her lessons are thorough and clear, and her study guides are extremely helpful.

Fantastic Teacher! Highly Recommend! Cares about students and likes to see you succeed! Clear lectures. Just take notes, do online hw every night and study and you should do good. I will be taking her classes for sure in the future.

Such a great teacher! Her teaching technique is very clear and she motivates you to do you best. Breaks down the lecture into steps. Easily one of the best math teachers on campus!

Professor Maddux is one of the best at West Valley! She makes stats easy to learn if you actually try. She provides fill in the blank lesson notes which are EXTREMELY helpful :) In-class assignments are a big part of your grade, so make sure you show up for class! This was my 3rd time taking stats and I got an A without killing myself over it :)

4 Tests, 5-6 Quizzes (Mostly online), and 1 Final. 1-3 Homework assignments a week through WebAssign. Overall the teacher explained the material clearly. The tests aren't too difficult if you keep up with the assignments and come to class.

She is so awesome!! Literally you can't ask for a better teacher!!

Mrs. Maddux is very clear in her lectures and gives you detailed notes to print out so you don't have to waste any time writing anything down. I've never even had to open my book. Come to class, pay attention, and you'll pass. I struggle with math and I'm passing this class with an A with 2 weeks to go. She's a great teacher, and extremely kind.

I have Mrs Maddux right now for Math 3A, and she is hands down one of the best math teachers!! I highly recommend her. You have to put effort into her class, but she is always willing to help. Tests aren't that difficult if you study notes and do the homework! Overall I would take her again!!

She is super sweet and will always try and help you with what you need. If you listen to her in class and do all of your in class and homework problems you will pass with a good grade. She is meticulous about interpretations so make sure to follow instructions. She is shy sometimes so ask lots of questions in class! She's very reasonable

she is not bad. but she get very much home work every day 20 questions and every weeks have quize

Maddux is so sweet and nice, and what she wants from you is clear. With that being said, she is fairly reasonable with attendance, but tests are pretty hard. The final is accumulative and having to remember 10 chapters with not even a notecard of the equations to help BITES. She makes the class bearable, but make sure you do the work and study!!

Her class can be really difficult at times. It was really hard for me to get help because she teaches a bunch of other classes and her office hours were hard to make. But if you manage to talk to her outside class, she is usually very kind and wants you to do well. It is definitely a really tough class though, no doubt about it.

Faun is a wonderful instructor. She is such a sweetheart and always has the students best interest in mind. If you need help, you have her full support. Get the assignments done and you won't have a problem passing her class. Her teaching style is very clear and she takes time to address any questions throughout the lecture. Highly recommended!

I have always been mathematically challenged and hated math. I took her class and ACTUALLY enjoyed math. Never thought I'd say that!

Professor Maddux is a very caring teacher who creates an excellent learning environment in her classroom. Math is not my strong point, but I truly enjoyed this class and learned a lot. If you want to succeed, it's an absolute must to come to every class, ask questions, and do the homework. I highly recommend!

Face paced class. Answers all questions. Will be time consuming at times. She's a good teacher, but the topic itself can be confusing sometimes.

I absolutely despised Math until taking Mrs. Maddux! I would suggest taking her whenever possible. She is incredibly patient and very clear in the way she teaches and grades. Homework can be a little "heavy" but it helps you in the end! She is very kind, easy to talk to and responds within a day or two to messages. A+ Professor.

Professor Maddux gives amazing notes; they summarize the book perfectly. It's an extremely difficult class, but Professor Maddux does a good job supporting her students through it!

She has so much patience for her students, so nice and is always ready to teach. When you ask her questions she doesn't make you feel dumb. She gives points for going to class, if you miss class you will fall behind easily. Do all the hw, show up to class, ask questions, study for the tests (she allows a notecard for formulas) and you'll pass

Mrs. Maddux was one of the best teachers I had last year! She's super nice and very approachable, so it's not hard to get help if you need it. I would 100% take her again.

Faun is so sweet and understanding. I had her for two semesters and she was pretty decent. She can be unclear about some things while teaching, so ask lots of questions. Not easily accessible out of class, so talk to her when you're in class or right after. Will help you with anything you need and just a sweetheart.

Faun is so sweet! I've taken 2 of her classes. Explains things well. Very understanding and will work with you if you have questions or aren't getting something. One of my favorite teachers on campus.

Faun Maddux is the kindest teacher I have ever had. She helped me realize I was a visual learner which really helped me learn from the way she was teaching. She explains difficult concept extremely well to the class.

Maddux is super nice. I took the combo class of trig and pre-calc. It was a hard class to begin with, but Maddux is great. She gives the grade you deserve. ALL the homework was online and the textbook access was online too, but no textbook needed. She gave printable notes which are super helpful and the study guides are the best things ever.

There is quite a lot of homework in this class but it can all be done relatively quickly if you focus. She makes things super easy to understand and she evidently wants her students to succeed. Some of the quizzes are online and open notes so it is easy to get an A. You have to show up to class though and sign in or else your grade WILL drop.

I enjoyed Mrs. Maddux's class because she's a cheerful and knowledgable teacher. Don't be fooled though, the class is very tough! The majority of the grade is based on tests and homework is mandatory to pass. The material became easier to learn when participating in the lectures. I would take this course again with a longer lecture session.

Faun Maddux is really supportive, extreamly positive, and creative in her teaching. In the online format she really switches it up, getting us to work in groups, taking time to explain and try out the material with her. I had not taken a math class in a long time so I was really nervous, I love her class! So glad I lucked out with this instructor

Professor Maddux is THE queen of my heart. She's like an extra mom. Her class definitely requires that you show up and take notes on her examples, but all of her exams were take-home this semester, she's flexible with deadlines as long as you have an excuse, and she's always trying to brighten your day! Super accessible, wish she taught 3B <3

I was really impressed with the scheduling of this course. I took combo tirg/calc online. She sets a prestigious syllabus and then constantly adjusts the schedule throughout the course based on the needs of the class. She is approachable, explains things well, and cares a lot about the success of her students. I highly recommend her!

Truly a gem, who loves math and you can feel it. It was an adjustment transitioning to zoom, the lectures are clear and precise. Participation and homework are a must high expectations but she assures you can get there with effort. If you show up, suit up on camera it makes all the difference. Cares about her student's success with a heart of gold!

Maddux is an amazing math teacher & really wants to see you excel!I've taken two math classes with her. There is consistent homework, but with math this is super crucial to learning material. She really cares about her students and explains everything so patiently. I highly recommend everyone to take her classes it has changed my outlook on math:)

Don't let the 3.5 rating scare you. Calculus is a difficult class, but Professor Maddux is an amazing and caring professor. She is very patient when explaining concepts and makes sure that her students understand. Lots of homework so keep on top of it, but she is very understanding, so speak to her if you need help.

I walked in this class with a C in precalc and and was scared of taking calc but I got an A in her class. She is so caring and sweet and made me feel so safe learning in her class. I could ask her a dumb math question and she would answer with care. She really wants her students to understand math and adjusts the course to do so too.

Professor Maddux is an amazing professor. She really cares about your success and will help you every way she can. Her course can be difficult at times, but work through it and you will leave extremely smart & thorough in the subject. No complaints, no regrets.

BEST TEACHER IVE EVER HAD!!!! Delivers the material beautifully + makes hard concepts easy. Class isn't particularly difficult, but you have to put time in. If you don't do all of the homework (sometimes 30 problems) of course the exams will be difficult. I've gone to every single one of her office hours and she's so helpful, sweet, and kind.

Calculus is a tough class. Prof Maddux is an excellent teacher who cares about her students and wants to help them. Calculus can be difficult and it requires the student to put in a lot of work and time. If you don't, your grades will suffer. Most of the reviews here are about the difficulty of calculus and not her teaching capability. LOVE HER!

Dont need to purchase textbook. Shes sweet and caring. Easy to follow along in lectures. Uses Pearson to do HW which is like $80 for the semester. gives like around 20 questions of hw per section. If you take her synchronously, pay attention to the lectures it will help a lot. If you need to look back to previous lectures, she has them recorded.

TAKE FAUN!!! She is such a lovely teacher and wants her students to succeed. She'll give homework extensions to anyone who asks and she has office hours four times a week. Extra credit on exams. I learned so much in this class and loved her instruction. This class has a lot of homework, but that's typically for the course level. Awesome teacher.

One of the nicest professors I've ever had. Difficult class but Maddux is great at both explaining concepts and answering questions. Homework done through MyMathLab, usually takes at least 1.5 hours. Exams definitely require studying. Records her lectures and posts them on canvas. Aside from all that Maddux genuinely cares and wants to help you.

Maddux is a great teacher. Cares a lot about her students, is very patient, explains things in depth and has a lot of in-class problem solving. Marks attendance but not religiously. Only caveat is that she's chronically ill or busy and, at least for my class, cancelled class at least eight times. Would totally take again though. It was great.

amazing professor, she was super helpful and kind my entire semester with her, teaching the material well and clearly caring about our learning, going out of her way to stay after class to talk to students about concepts they would struggle with and try to find a better way to help them, also understanding with extensions. 5/5, would take again.

She was really sweet and encouraging!

Great teacher! Extremely understanding with generous late policy (only 5% deduction).

Really nice professor. Hw and tests were all through Pearson ($89 unfortunately :'( ), but discussions and quizzes were through canvas. Textbook was alright, frankly khan academy does it better. Worst part was the homework load; assignments weren't hard, but 4/week of 15-20 questions adds up, especially in calc 3 where every question takes 15 mins.

One of the best math teachers you can ask for. Her class really makes it fun and interesting all the time, while also being sweet and caring to her students. Although there's a lot of homework involved, it's not that much as long as you can study at an average rate and not procrasinate most of the time passing this class. Definitely recommend her.

I took her 4A class spring 2025 and it was really good, I would say she dos have a lot of homework and the problems are tough and can take you a while to do. But the good thing is that her exams are the exact same as her homework. She gives feedback on canvas quizzes. But not exams or homework since they are in Pearson. Easy class if you study.🥰😉
