Summerlin is a generous soul and well-skilled in the subject that she teaches.
She is a wonderful College Algebra Teacher. She explains very well and is all around a good teacher. Recommend everyone to take her for this class.
Best algebra instructor ever!!! She presents material clearly and was always there to help. She is wonderful!
She made college algebra easy to understand. She taught everything on the calculator.
The best ever algebra professor. Could not be explained more clear.
shes great and teaches the cutest ways to remember things. Its the only math class i've ever smiled and had a fun time in.
What a fantastic teacher! I highly recommend her! : )
GREAT teacher!!! I made an A and I hate math with a passion. I have dreaded taking this class for years but she made it fun! DO not take anyone else for College Algebra! She is a sweet lady! Also, when I took her we got all take home test!!!
mrs. summerlin is the greatest teacher on the face of the earth all her tests are take home and i think you learn more that was this is a required class who wants to take it? and she knows that.... i have failed evrey math class ever but made a 98 in her class
LET ME JUST SAY THIS, I MADE 100% ON THE MID-TERM I LOVE THIS WOMAN SHE IS AWESOME
I had her for high school algebra at bixby. She was awesome then and still awesome now!
I never thought i would understand this stuff but i am about to walk out of COLLEGE ALGEBRA with an A, TAKE HER
She is the best teacher I have ever had! Definately take her class - she is awesome! All my friends learned a lot from her. She also is easy going. She's an A+ in my book!!! BHS LOVES YA! =) PEEEEEEOPLE
Good teacher! Does not allow take home tests anymore, but she makes this class easy by walking you through algebra, step by step. Very understanding and her only surprises are good ones! She loves what she is doing and is good at it. Thanks, Ms. Summerlin!!!
I wish she taught every class I am taking. If only all math instructors were like her!
I have taken this class a couple of times, and now I just wish I would have had this teacher the first time. She is excellent at explaining how to do the work and she teaches most of it on the calculator. I have never gotten an A on a math test until this class. Do whatever you can to take this teacher.
Mrs. summerlin is a great instructor. She actually made algebra somewhat fun, if you can imagine that. She is very clear and lets you use notes on tests. Her class is not an "easy A", however...You still have to implement your brain.
You need to take her if you can get into her class. She teaches high schoolers so she can get on your level. She also wants you to pass. She knows this is a hard class and most of us would not take it if it was not required for most majors.
I took Glenda Summerlin"s class over the summer (8 week semester). I have never liked or been good at math. However, Summerlin's class was well worth the wait to get into. She knows math as well as understoods the struggle for the majority that doesn't. Keep up the excellent job that you do Glenda. YOU ROCK!
Great Instructor, I dreaded taking college algebra forever. On Day one she made it very clear that she wanted us all to do well and this was not going to be a hard class. Taught very well, showed us quick ways to do things on the calcualator, and rewrote the forumulas on the board EVERYTIME she did a new problem. GREAT instructor
glenda is awesome. she is clear, concise, and methodical with her notes. she covers everything in detail and has you work a few for clarity. her homework policy can't be beat: do it, don't fall behind, and she briefly checks it for credit befire the final. she's a gem.
An awesome teacher. I recommend her to anybody who is Math challenged.
she is the best, homework doesnt have to be turned in until the end of smester, there are 4 tests and she gives you a study guide for each that is a clone to the test plus she lets you use your notes on the test. easy A guaranteed and she gives xtra credit on tests if the class does well.
Ms. Summerlin was awesome. If you need to pass College Algebra and it is not one of your strong areas, take her. She really cares and wants you to pass her class.
ms. summerlin is a great algebra teacher. she explains the material excellent. if you go to class and study the study guide (which is almost the same as the test) you will do good. best math teacher.
She is great!! If you have trouble with Algebra then take her. I came out with a B. I was failing my Algebra class so the B was wonderful to me. GO FOR IT!!! I know most of us dread Algebra but she makes it less stressful. She teaches high school so she can bring it down.
She is a great teacher! she explains Algebra on your level that is if you are not so good at math, as I have learned most people are not. Take her and listen to the lectures you will actually learn math and not be lost in the subject of algebra!
Top notch teacher, best person I could have asked her! She is great at explaining things so that they are easy to remember and how you can apply them. I would reccomend her to anyone who is a whiz at math or struggles to understand concepts, nothing but great things to say!
Ms Summerlin is an exceptional teacher, I have thouroughly enjoyed her class and wish that she were teaching college algebra next semester. She is extremely clear and very helpful. I had not had a lick of Algebra for 12 years and that was back in highschool so I didn't know if I was going to get it. She teaches in a way that you do get it.
Terrific teacher! Her main concern is that you learn what you need for College Algebra. If you take notes (anything she writes on the board), you will have an excellent reference source for College Algebra. And you can use them on the test!
I had her about 10 years ago and i'm still reccomending her to anyone who wants to know what they are doing...she's funny and makes algebra learnable. Taking her will be the best thing you could ever do! ;)
Great teacher! Her main concern is that you understand. Attend class, participate, do the homework, work the study guides, you will have no problems. Nice lady, great sense of humor..makes class fun!
THE *BEST* MATH TEACHER I'VE EVER HAD! I hadn't been in a math class in years and still got an A. Ms. Summerlin explains everything in a way that anyone can understand. She also writes out instructions and explains problems in words on the board so when you look at your notes after class, you remember how to work the probs. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Glenda is a talented and gifted instructor. I wish I would have had a teacher like her in high school and maybe I wouldn't have been afraid of algebra for most of my life. She breaks down concepts so that everyone can understand them. If I can pass this class, so can you. She truly cares about her students and wants them to succeed!
Great teacher. Really knows her math and makes it easy to understand. lecture with great notes, study guide review before tests. I leaned more in her class than I did in high school. She is a great math teacher.
She is a great Professor, if u do her home work and and do the test revision you are good, this is an easy A class. She will explain to you what you dont understand
Ms. Summerlin was a wonderful and very helpful teacher and she is one of my favorites. She really wants you to "get it" and she will keep going over things until you do. Great class to take before College Algebra.
She is the BEST math teacher I have ever had! I've never done so well in my entire life! I would recommend her to anyone afraid or not so good at algebra. Very patient and helpful! She's awesome!!
The best math class I have ever taken. I wish I could have had her in High school and maybe I wouldn't have had such a math phobia for all these years.Ms Summerlin is a wonderful teacher, and you will not regret taking her class. She truly wants you to do well in the class. I wish I could take her for all my subjects.
I cannot believe I made an A in college algebra! I put this class off for 2 years, and now I'm actually good at math! We have 4 tests including the final. She tells us what to study. The final is the easiest of them all and replaces your lowest test grade! You do need to show up to class, but she makes it fun and really wants you to do well.
she is one of the best teachers at tcc. if you are not a fan of math like i am, you should definitely take her. not only does she make math understandable, but she's a very nice person. she learns students' names the first day. she really loves teaching and it shows. i hate math & i got an a in the class. if you take her then you probably will too.
GREAT INSTRUCTOR. WANTS STUDENTS TO LEARN.
I took her in fall08.I just had to give input still. She is an EXCELLENT teacher. She really wants u to learn. There is a pretty good amount of homework, but totally do-able. She also goes over hmwk if you have questions. Goes over what to study for on tests to prepare you. Great, caring, patient teacher. A must take.
Ms. Summerlin actually makes Algebra fun. She is very knowledgable and extremely patient. She really helps students to grasp the concepts. She gives very clear examples of what is going to be on the tests. I felt like I was very well prepared for every test. She offers plenty of bonus opportunities to help students out. Great teacher!
This teacher is amazing! She is a wonderful person that truly cares about her students! If you have struggled in Math she is the teacher for you! Enroll early she fills up fast!
She is a very good math teacher!!! I took college Algebra after not having a math class for 10 years. She is very helpful, makes work very understandable, and makes math more enjoyable than it should be. She preps her students well for further math classes. Lots of Homework in a 8 week period but doable and she will work anything out with you.
What a wonderful alegbra teacher! This is not my first time taking this class. Best I have had! Very clear. Can ask questions. Follow the syllabus and show up to class. Only 4 test but the final replaces lowest test score! And final is over current section!
She can get anyone to understand her material. You do not have to be math savy to take her. And you will actually know algebra well after her class. She has an awesome way of teaching. And she really appreciates attendance. Don't sweat this class if you take her. I thought I would get a C and I have an A in the class.
Awesome Teacher. Every student has the opportunity to make an A in her class. She explains the material thoroughly and doesn't leave any steps out, no matter how simple.
Great teacher, she knows her stuff... to pass this class you have to work on your hw...Highly recommended
If you have trouble finding a college algebra teacher who knows how to help you understand whats going on then look no further. She won Bixby teacher of the year award 2010. I had withdrawn, and droped 2 previous other college Algebra classes, but Mrs. summerlin breaks it down for you so you can understand it, even if your not fresh with math.
awesome teacher, great at helping and knows just how to make you feel like you can do it then shows you how,,take her classes and you will pass
if you are bad at math, this is the teacher to take!!! math is the one subject i've always struggled with. i tried taking other math teachers at tcc, but this is the only teacher i had any luck with. on most tests, multiple choice and you're allowed a calculator. sometimes, she even gives formulas.
I had not been in school for 4 years and had not had any college algebra experience so I was very hesitant about taking this coarse. Glenda was and amazing teacher! She teaches high school math so she makes learning very easy and she is very helpful. I have never been good at math but I ended up making a B in her class
best math teacher ever...very patience and by her teaching high school math, she can bring college algebra down to a high school level.
Ms. Summerlin is the best teacher I've had in a long time. She's very patient with the learning process and takes time to answer questions until you understand what you are doing. She doesn't waste your time explaining the "why," just teaches you how to "do." Take her if you can get her.
Mrs. Summerlin is honestly the best teacher I have ever had. She develops personal relationships with her students and I can now count her as a great friend. I had her for calculus and the class was extremely easy and fun even though the subject is not the easiest. Without her expert teaching I would not have been able to make a 5 on the
If anyone is dreading taking college algebra, Ms. Summerline's class is a MUST. She explains things thoroughly and takes time to answer questions before, during and after classes. Homework was optional, but i highly recommend doing it. She is a sweet lady too!
I had not taken a math class in over 10 years. Due to Ms. Summerlin's great teaching, I made an A. She is very patient and wants to make sure everyone understands. Take her if you can!
Ms. Summerlin is so sweet and helpful. "Let's do another one" is her favorite saying and repetition helps you learn how to do it. Homework is optional and she tells you problems similar to the ones on the test for the review. Do those problems and you will get an A on the test. Only 4 test grades.
I have been dreading College Alg. and hands down she is the best! She explains things great! She gives you "great canidates" for the test! Show up and listen, and there is no way you could fail! Very helpful and sweet!
I am in her College Algebra class now. I was fearful of taking it since I haven't done any math in about 10 years. She was so helpful, clear and willing to help, I wish every teacher could be like her. She explains everything so you are confident by the time she moves onto the next section. LOVE HER!
If you struggle with algebra or have not taken it for a while, this is the instructor for you. She is very helpful and gives a good study guide for each exam. i am taking her again for college algebra. Great teacher!
she is so sweet, and genuinely cares. Do what your paying to do, learn... and you wont have a problem.
She is fantastic, i took her for college alg and Int. Alg. I would recommend her for sure! she really cares about you, and your grade. As well, she does an excellent job teaching the syllabus
She's an amazing instructor! I have never been good at math, especially algebra but she made it understandable. The material in itself is not easy at all but she breaks it down and makes sure you get it. A lovely woman, I definitely recommend her!
Great teacher!! Math has always been my worst subject, but I passed her class with a B! She explains the work so well and is very clear. Her study guides are a lot like the tests so that helped a lot! I would recommend her to anyone
Glenda Summerlin is a great professor! She is very clear and teaches very well. I hadn't taken any math classes in 7 years and she was awesome about helping me get back into it. If you make sure to attend class, do the homework, and study the study guide that she gives out, you will pass the class. I highly recommend her!
I have never liked math or been good at it but I made an A in this class! She explains everything in great detail and is willing to help after class with any and all questions. She is a FANTASTIC teacher. I HIGHLY recommend her!
One of the best math teachers i've ever had. I have not taken math in five years and she reviews everything until you understand. She never makes you feel like anything is a stupid question. Very nice and will answer every question you have. Legitimately cares about you and your future.
Amazing teacher who truly cares if you do. Will answer any quesitons you have to ensure you understand fully. I HIGHLY recomment you take Summerlin! :)
I am NOT a math person! I have made F's my whole life in math. Summerlin achieved what no other math teacher has done - I passed the class with a B! She is so patient and truly cares about you as a person. I was scared to death to take this class and she calmed my fears. If you have not taken math in awhile, THIS IS YOUR TEACHER!
College Algebra 1 night a week really wasn't advisable- especially after being out of school for 20 years. She was a great teacher making sure you understood the concepts presented. She recommended Interactmath.com- a great tool that was tremendously helpful. You will not be disappointed with taking this class!
Mrs. Summerlin is a great teacher. She explains things clearly and is always willing to help. I have always been terrible at math and I have college algebra once already. She gives plenty of helpful handouts and she takes homework as a completion grade, which REALLY helps. I highly recommend her, especially if you hate math.
Ms. Summerlin was awesome. I took her last summer, and was suprised at how easily she was able to get someone like me who was not so great with math to understand algebra on a college level. I would take her again and again. Fantastic professor!
she make sure you understand the material I highly recommend her class,
Glenda is a superb math teacher. She is friendly, helpful and dedicated to your success. I had an irrational fear of algebra, but Mrs. Summerlin brought to my level. If you attend all of her classes, you are sure to succeed. She gives you practice exams that, if practiced, you will surely pass. I highly recommend her.
Great math professor! I waited to take math until my last year and passed her class with an A! 4 exams and 4 HW combinations to go with them. Last exam replaces lowest previous exam score, if higher than it. Show up to class, do your HW, and give your best! You will pass with flying colors! She's willing to help no matter what. Highly recommended!
I took her summer class, and that was the best decision I have ever made. She is a wonderful teacher, and a great person. If your a good student, she is the one for you.
I hate math and I loved her and was able to pull through and not hate math as much!
Glenda Summerlin is absolutely the best Math teacher I've eve had! She cares deeply for her students and wants everyone to succeed in Math. She takes time to explain complex problems and always pauses for questions. If you dont understand a question she is there for you in a heartbeat in class and online. Take her class!! She makes Math easy.
I do NOT like math! I do NOT think numbers and letter should EVER be together! But with Mrs. Summerlin I was able to pass the class! She is helpful and a wonderful teacher. Attend class. Pay attention! Take notes and do the homework weekly (once you get behind it is hard to catch up)! She is a great lady! I would recommend her to anyone!
Ms Glenda is an excellent teacher, she gives you clear instructions on how to do the work. Take notes and do the study guide for the tests the day of or the day before and you will pass this class. She is a wonderful person and will give you all the help you need. Best thing was, no MathLab!
She is great at explaining it in a way everyone could easily understand. Classes are usually the full time but you don't leave class feeling still confused. She makes sure everyone understands. She assigns homework from the book and she just looks to see that you did it. She gives a study guide for each test that is practically the same. Love her
Glenda is such an amazing professor! I absolutely loved her! She is so understanding and very helpful! She is really good at teaching his class. I defiantly recommend her! This class was super easy for me and I'm not a math lover by any means. 4 tests all together and she gives you a study guide that resembles the test!
Awesome teacher. Never thought I could pass College Algebra but she made it easy.
Glenda is absolutely amazing! The sweetest, most kind hearted funny lady I have ever met. I would high recommend her. I love her!
Best part is she is understanding and not difficult... My last math class was 10 yrs ago and was intermediate, I took 15hrs and still was able to get a B in this one. She understands if you work full time and so homework is not too bad. Class is dry but it is math
Professor Sumerlin is an excellent instructor. She's precise and shows willingness to help her students. She's very sweet and comical! Show up for class, and you'll pass!!
Mrs. Summerlin is awesome if you're not planning on having a math major. She makes Algebra easy to understand and she is super sweet!!! She wants to get to know her students and she tries to make the material understandable to everyone. She is willing to meet with you outside of class and wants you to succeed!!
One of the best Professors I have ever had! Makes the class very manageable. You and her share the same goal and that is that you do well in her class. Defiantly recommend her class.
Great teacher. She cares about her students and wants to see them succeed. Her study guides are VERY similar to the tests so make sure to study them. Easy class, but you must show up and do the work. she is very understanding. I hate math and i'm terrible at it, but she explained it very well and made it easy to understand. (College Algebra)
Great professor, Go to class and do the study guide as she teaches you will be good. Study guide is direct reflection of tests.
Excellent teacher! I had to take basic and intermediate algebra and had trouble even in those. I took Mrs. G for College Algebra during the summer and passed with an A! I truly understand the material because she teaches it so well!! Highly recommended professor!
Professor Summerlin is an awesome teacher! I took this class in the summer solely so I could devote all of my time to it! Her lectures and study guides tech you everything to pass the class! I hadn't had math in 10 years and didn't know any of it until she taught it and I passed with and A! Just attend class and you'll pass!
Take her!! She wants her students to succeed and will give you what you need to do so. Go to lecture, she really appreciates that. She is very nice and very good at explaining the math. Not too much homework. Tests are easy if you review the study guide.
She is by far the sweetest teacher I've had. She makes sure that you understand and gives handouts with examples. The study guides are just like the test. I would love to take her again!!! Highly recommend!
Absolutely love this professor. She is the BEST, very patient, will go over something again if needed. She wants you to succeed!
She is the best. Take this professor, you won't regret it.
One of the best professors I have ever had! She is very understanding! Willing to work with you if you do not understand. I am not good at math and she makes it very easy. Great professor! Highly recommend!!
Learned so much in this class . Mrs. Summerlin cares about her students and really wants them to succeed . Would take her again for all my other math if I could .
Ms. Summerlin is an amazing teacher. Ive been through a lot of universities for my degrees and Ms. Summerlin is at the top of my list with her teaching style. She makes math easy to understand and gives you all the tools youll need to succeed. Im currently seeing what other classes she teaches so I can take her again!
She is a great teacher! All the homework will be online, there will be no need to have a textbook in this class. There will be 3 test and the final. She gives you a study guide that really helps you ace the test. She goes over the study guide with you. You'll have to print notes for class as she works it out for you to copy down. Bring calculator!
Mrs.G is such an amazing person inside and out. She will take her time to thoroughly go over anything you dont understand. Her homework is on MyLabsPlus, not difficult if you pay attention during her lectures. She also provided everyone with extensive amount of materials for the tests to make sure you pass. Overall, I highly recommend Mrs. G!
She is always willing to work with you if you have a hard time understanding the problems. LabsPlus can be a pain sometimes, so she'll give you points on problems that were super close to the answer, maybe you put (x,y) instead of x,y. Test every other week with study guide, lots of homework, print notes before you arrive to class and study.
Professor Summerlin is the best. Take her for Precalc or whatever other math she teaches. She is so nice and caring and shows every step to every problem and makes it easy to understand. Pay attention in class, do your MyLabsPlus and you'll be set. Best math teacher, take her, you won't regret it!
All of the homework is done online through MyLabsPlus and she gives you unlimited attempts to work the problems and get the right answer! Her study guides are also identical to the test! (Just different numbers or in a different order). I have always needed a tutor to makes A's in math classes but she teaches so well that I was able to understand!
