I thought math regardless of the level would be my toughest subject. Yet, somehow Gita had some quirky ways to remember what to do first as is the case in math. She is very fair, and most importantly she wants everyone to succeed. Go to the tutoring sessions & pass leader sessions and you will learn all you need for the quizzes and exams.

She explains the concepts so well that everything sounds so easy. She will go through harder exercises to be prepared for the test. We do some group quizzes and reviews for the tests that prepare you for the test. Homework will be graded, but she goes over all the questions people ask for help. She is one of the best professor I have known

Gita is easily one of the greatest lecturers here at GWC. Her lectures are very digestible and engaging. There is a lot of homework, but nothing too difficult and she will help you with your homework during lectures. Quizzes and exams are based on her lectures and homework. If you engage in lecture hours, you will not fail.

Calc 2 was way difficult than calc 1 by a miles (so know your trig and d/dx!). Although the subject is hard indeed professor Gita would break down the homework problem that you ask her solved and condense it to an easier understanding. Taking her in calc 2 is a great choice just passing this class in online/ in-person most likely is challenging GL!

Very good math professor. The study guide is basically the same (a question not covered on the study guide but hw instead) making all the test easy to a get good score on. It is very heavy on the testing so do well. And fyi she doesn't call names for attendance but still marks u down if you ain't there I think. I got a 90/100 for that grade (5%)

Great online lectures (easy to understand), but grading system is terrible. I had good grades in almost all categories including homework and exams, but the quiz category is the one that brought my overall grade down to a C. If you take this class, be sure to take each one seriously. There are not a lot of assignments in that class to begin with.

Good teacher if you just want the grade and move on. Bad if you're a STEM major that wants to learn the theory. She is definitely clear about what's on her tests and quizzes, and gives generous partial credit. However, she tends to skim through explanations of sections very fast and usually spends the majority of time doing HW questions in class.

Kind professor, but avoid this class if you're serious about mathematics. She expects strict mimicry, not elegant or equivalent methods, and deducts if you don't follow her steps. She speed-grades hundreds of exams, so work isn't closely reviewed. Explanations of axioms/abstractions lack depth, so real understanding isn't ever developed.
