Overall a decent instructor. Some problems on exams I thought were rather unfair.

very nice and helpful

She obviously loves trig and it shows in her teaching. I learned a ton. She doesn’t take nonsense from any of the students so don’t expect her to cut you some slack. I would definitely take a class from her again.

I don't know why people hate her. I thought she was pretty funny and I had an easy time with this class. I got an A and barely tried. If you do the homework, you can't go wrong. She answers any question you ask, and she'll explain things as many times as you need. She's really nice.

She's great; a good sense of humor. I'm terrible at math and got A's in both classes with her. Just try hard and if you don't get the material, ASK HER!

I took three math classes with this teacher. She is very helpful, and in some cases she is very funny. Her “side comments” seem to be meant for comic relief and in most cases it works. She seems to be willing to work with you and if she cannot help, due to time and/or other factors, the math department is ready and willing. Over all I think she is

Make sure you know your algebra before you take this class. She's a good teacher, moves a little fast, but overall she tought very well. She gives you many chances to get your grade higher with homework and quizes and bonus questions on tests that you get to take home. Good teacher.

Holly is a great teacher! She gets to know you at a personal level. She is soo helpful when you need help. She is very fast pace. You can NOT fall behind in her class because if you do its hard to catch back up

She is a great teacher and is VERY willing to help you out. THis is not an easy class but if you stay on top of things you will be fine. She really goes the extra mile for those students that come to her for help

I took her during the spring semester, so missing a class meant missing a lot of info, but she was really helpful with the material she was teaching. She gave a lot of hand outs and used the book for reinforcement. As long as you pay attention and do the hand outs you will get a good grade.

Pleasant person, but is kinda annoying at times. Shes a good teacher though. Shes all hands on, hardly any real notes and lectures. Just basically. HERES a problem, this is how you do it. Hard for people, but that just happens to work for me.

Good teacher, not lazy at all because she works hard in class. She is always making exercises and answer any question. Yes, it is a lot of content and she teaches it fast. But she is fair and I learned a lot.

Easy class although if you haven't had math you will struggle. Fast paced but, that is what college level pre-calc is. Doesn't care if you don't come that being said, isn't sympathetic if you do badly. Answered 2 to 3 of my questions every class period. Does not tolerate texting and talking it makes her angry and she will call you out.

She may be tough but that is what you support to go to school. I saw everyone complain a lot about her but I think just because they don't put effort to study. I took her class 2 semester already and always searching for her classes for next level

I LOVED HER, she was hard but if you showed her you tried to get good grades, showed up to class, and did the homework she gave you good grades. very helpful during office hours. you do need to work hard and focus though to get a good grade but she is an awesome teacher. if you need help ask IMMEDIATLY

Holly is a great teacher she knows her math and makes learning easy. She is tough but if you act like a grown-up and attend class, you will do great.She has to stop lecture to tell people to get off their phones but if you can focus and take notes you will love her!

Great teacher, had an A going into final, but had to study for physics instead. Lets you know exactly what she wants. Made a super hard class very easy

Do not miss a class and let Holly know who you are and dont get behind. She teaches perfectly, so if you miss you have to learn the material on your own. I got a B+ when I F the first test. I showed up everyday and showed improvement. Good teacher for math.

Mrs. Broesamle Is a really good math professor. Especially If you are not a math person and you need a good math instructor, I highly advise you take her.She has her days where she can be moody and kind of mean but Its worth dealing with cause she's a good instructor.

Broesamle is a great math professor. I had her for my first math class which was college algebra. Prior to college I had little interest in math and wasn't very good at it. Broesamle is a very straight forward and to-the-point teacher, and she gives great homework. Apply your mind while in class and do the homework and you'll do just fine.

AMAZING teacher! I failed math in high school and have not taken a math class for 5 years. I loved her class because I understood the material and loved the way she presented it. She assigns homework every night although does not correct most of it. (I would still advise you do it, it is never a lot and I believe it is what helped me)

This professor breaks everything down for you to fully understand. The only 4 things you need to know are: 1.Come to class 2.Do your homework (even if you don’t get credit) 3.Turn off your cell before EVERY class 4.Google if you didn’t understand something in class If you can’t do those things, you don’t belong in college.

A fantastic professor! I took her for elementary and intermediate algebra. Although the summer semester goes by quick she makes sure that you understand the material. I highly recommend her and drove 45 minutes out of my way just to come to her class.

She is FANTASTIC! I took her for both Elementary and Intermediate Algebra. With math as my worst subject, I was quite nervous, but Ms. Broesamle was very clear in her teaching and was more than willing to repeat herself and do examples. As long as you are willing to actually raise your hand and ask questions, you'll find her helpful.

Tough but Fair. Fun to be in class with her, funny. Always helped when asked. Lots of work, but needed to succeed in class. Good teacher, I will take her again if she teaches the classes I need and when.I Repeat had to work hard but learned a lot.

Holly is a great teacher and a fair grader (she gives partial credit). She doesn't micromanage her students. Not a ton of grades. People complaining about failing probably didn't keep up with the book work, which isn't her problem. She'll give you help where you need it but also expects that you take your own initiative and improve.

One of the best math teachers i've ever had. She's cool, relaxed, and knows how to explain things in an understandable way. Most homework is optional, meaning tests are worth more of your grade so you must understand the material to get a good grade. One complaint is she sometimes moves too fast, but I will definitely take her again.

She's a great teacher, she explains the main points to help you understand the concept of the work, and slowly defines the finer details needed to completely understand the work throughout her lectures. The homework is handpicked to maximize your learning, and it helps that she teaches directly from the homework, so there are no curveballs on tests

Mrs. Broesamle is an awesome teacher. Currently taking her for Differential Equations and she is wonderful. Her notes are very good along with her Exams. I think her exams are very easy and doable if you do your homework and assignment. Defiantly take her!

My only complaint is how fast pace her lectures are. She has very clear grading scale, uses MyMathLab & gives homework. Posts all test/quiz/homework keys online (very helpful) but her handwriting is pretty bad- can be hard to make some things out. I did poorly because I did not put in the effort required & missed a few lectures. Would take again.

Professor is good. Tries to make it comfortable to ask questions in class. Always ready to help, and gives homework daily. Breaks information down and always says how it can be solved in multiple ways. Explains Clearly and Breaks information down. Take Her!

Best professor I have ever taken. She is very fair, you get what you deserve. Everything you need to study for tests is clearly laid out. Homework is 25% of the grade so just do it and it will boost your grade and you wont need to study as hard for the exams. 10/10 would take again. I wish she taught at OU

Everyone on here makes her seem like shes terrible... she really isnt. If you take this class at night you never stay the whole time, shes a fair grader, the homework gives pretty good cushion. only problem is sometimes when you ask questions to be done from the book she can get a bit snappy. Other than that i think shes good!

I love her classes. She helps with homework and answers questions about problems on assignments and exams, and is always willing to walk someone through a problem. A LOT of material is covered in class, but she doesn't let anyone walk away confused. Decent amount of hw, but the exams aren't any harder. Plenty of extra credit ops.

She's a great teacher. She walks you through the lectures at a pace that feels like you can pick up on it. She does not leave you in the dust if you have questions or concerns, she is a helpful teacher. I was afraid to take her class because of the prior ratings, but seriously, you will enjoy her, even if you are not the best at math.

Professor Broesamle is a really good teacher. If you show up everyday, You will learn a lot of the material in class. You have to study hard. I was doing about a class length worth of studying outside class. Calculus 2 is hard, but she broke it down into these handouts which counted as homework. I would then study these before every test. Did fine.

Excellent teacher. Calc 2 isn't an easy class but she does everything she can to make it less painful if you put in the effort. Weekly homework assignments are effective and help to study for tests (textbook problems are also important but not graded). Tests were not too long and she is pretty generous with partial credit. Wish she taught Calc 3.

Faster than a bullet train was a great analogy! Being that said, I really enjoyed the class overall. There is homework that is not graded, about 12 graded assignments (some on D2L). There are plenty of helpful handouts that she goes over in class. Plenty of extra credit and opportunities to bring your grade up. If your struggling go to mathlab.

Very kind, and if you pay attention, you will Do well

She's gives plenty of extra credit on tests that you can do at home. It's enough that if you do poorly on a test you can still bring your grade up. She can be intimidating, but she is willing to help anyone that asks. I did not think her tests were that hard. Homework worth 25%. SI was great at letting you know what to expect on the test.

Very no non-sense & to the point, comes off intimidating. Beware, she does instruct fast so if you are having trouble, just let her know and she will slow down and repeat. She is always nice and willing to help you if you need. She never seemed intimidating when I had to ask a question, so don't be afraid to ask her if you need help

She does move quickly, but she teaches in a way that makes it easy to understand and remember. She assigns a lot of homework from the book for practice, but you don't have to turn in any of it, only handouts she makes herself. She also makes handouts that are more helpful at explaining concepts than the book. Very enjoyable!

I don't get the hate. Great teacher! If you think there's too much homework, welcome to math! Most math classes you have to do homework to pass. She can go fast at times but her notes are very thorough. She does what most math teachers at OCC don't-- challenge you.

Professor Broesamle was one of the best math professors I have ever had. In the beginning, I was afraid to take her class due to the ratings, but she is a really good professor. She explains the material in a very easy way and her tests are similar to the homework and lectures. So, if you do the homework and pay attention to class you will do great

Professor Broesamle is a very good professor. Tests are pretty easy if you go to class and study from her notes. She gives extra credit sometimes and she will answer any question you have

She is an amazing professor! Her recordings are great and the exams are pretty easy (of course if you study). I definitely recommend her!

She is an amazing professor. One of the best math professors I've had so far!

Do the homework problems. Do. The. Homework. Problems. Calc 2 is hard and yeah, she could make it easier but it still takes a lot of work. The lecture goes by fast and not a lot of time on each topic so do the homework problems. Repetition makes those formulas stick. This class will take a lot of time.

Don't listen to all of these other reviews. She is a fair teacher. Do the practice problems and the homework and you will have no trouble on the exams. Always willing to help and explains things very clear. She drops the lowest exam score and replaces it with the final exam score. Pay attention in class and get a good grade... simple as that.

She is a very fair professor. Do all of the homework and textbook assignments, and you will do fine. She does lecture kind of fast, but she was always willing to help me when I was confused.

Honestly, it was difficult no doubt. Yet, she answered questions and if you had questions on the test most of the time all it would take is asking. If you did all of the homework you would be fine. Our class had an SI which was super helpful. If you do the work the class is easy, if not you will not survive. The test questions are from the homework

I feel she made the content easy to understand and she's fair. I plan on taking MAT 1500 with her this coming semester. Fair warning, you have to put in the work to get a good grade. Show up, pay attention and do everything assigned. If you don't you'll fail. She also moves fast through the content and there is a lot of content to cover.

I had Professor Bro during the fall 2022 semester. I liked her, I thought she was a good teacher and she did a nice job explaining everything. Just make sure to do the work and do the homework. She does assign a lot but she is very organized with all assignments. The tests are hard but if you study and put in the effort you will be fine.

I have loved taking this women's classes. she has clear notes as a packet that she hands out. anyone who does poorly in her classes does not do the book work. to succeed in her class do what she tells you to and ask questions about book work at the beginning of class. it is calculus it builds on itself figure out the issues early and she will help.

This is my absolute favorite teacher. She is firm on grading, does not accept late work, but she is very clear with expectations. The syllabus has everything that will be gone over through the semester. Bookwork is assigned daily, it is not graded but questions are answered in class. Graded assignments sprinkled in between tests. Amazing SI too.

Ms. B is the best teacher that you can ask for when it comes to math. She assigns a lot of homework, not mandatory, but extremely helpful to do. She does not teach you things you need to know, but its a pre-req for this class, so she shouldn't have to. The lectures are fantastic, and easy to understand. Work hard, and you'll do fine. MAT-1730summer

I took Ms B for Calc 2 over an accelerated 7 week summer course. She taught units in a different order because she felt it yielded better exam scores and it definitely did for me. I can guarantee the majority of bad reviews for her are students who don't understand that hard curriculum ≠ bad professor. There is no way to make Calc 2 a cake walk!

Yes this class is work heavy and I won't deny it. I had her for both trig and calc 1, but I love her. If you take advantage of the SI sessions and follow along in class you should do good. She does partial credit when she grades both tests and homework and it was a fun class for me

I love math, so I thought she was great! Honestly, I think most of the bad ratings are from people who dislike math, or just want everything to be easy, so take those with a grain of salt. Lover her personality and she made jokes here and there. It shouldn't be difficult to get through her classes if you actually try and want to learn.

She is a great professor. Would have gladly taken Calc 2 with her if my schedule had been more flexible. Took three of her math classes and each one was a great learning experience. Her lecture notes are posted on D2L after every class, so was able to pay better attention during lectures without having to constantly worry about my notes.
