Great teacher, shows interest in her students. Would like all to succeed and pass the class.
Just come to class if you dont know the material. IF you do know it and you sure you could pass her test than you are good to go. She is very easy and she explains everything, she does not leave anyone behind, but when its time to move on. you gotta move on.
She was soo helpful! Very good teacher. Took time to explain and would repeat 20 times if necessary! I would definetly recommend her. Great teaching skills..

shes really nice, and takes the time to explain things. you cant even get mad if she gives you an F on an exam because shes so nice about it
Great professor
She is an amazing teacher! She explains everything very well. I hated math and got an A in her class. Her notes are clear and concise. If you don't understand something, she'll repeat it until you get it!
Prof. F is GREAT. She is the best prof. ever best class I have ever had. She makes her class very interesting and helpful it makes you really want to learn math.
Great professor! She is very detailed in her explanations:)
She defines the word TEACH. This is the best prof I had since attending ECC. Everything is easy when you study, but she is great at explaining the material. She is WONDERFUL. She said in class "I hand you the class w/ a bow tie wrapped around it." This is true. All you have to do is do the work. I love having her as a prof. Easy and no surprises.
it's crazy she's the best math professor i've had and understood i didn't pass the class, but i know my weaknesses now, i failed not her i have it now!
Professor F she teaches okay she goes to fast threw the material and helps but no that mucch gives alot hw online and yu need to buy the book i wouldnt take her class again!!
PROF. F IS AN AMAZING TEACHER. EASY PROFESSSOR TO TAKE. HAD HER FOR SPRING 2011. EXPLAIN MATERIAL VERY WELL AND GIVES ALOT OF EXAMPLE. VERY KIND HEARTED AS WELL
PROFESSOR Figueiras is an awesome professor!!! She is super helpful, and wants you to succeed... She is very attentive and caring; i love her. If she could teach me all my courses throughout college that would be gr8!!! THUMBS UP PROF!!! You truly deserve it... thanks for m,aking math my favourite subject <3 :-)
She is the best Math Professor of ECC hands down. She is great. She explains the problems in such a simple easy way that you understand with no problem. She makes math seem easy and fun. I absolutely love her and recommend her to new ECC students.
I took calc 1 and 2 with her, and hands down she is the best professor at ECC. By best I do not mean easiest, I mean that she understands and communicates the material very well. I highly recommend her.
This Professor is the best. She explains material clearly, she is helpful. Math is never easy but do your webassign and go over the notes and ask her questions and you will be good for the semester. She is the BEST!
Shes extremely clear, and if you dont understand, shell go back and rexplain where ever it is she lost you. she isnt strict, and is only there to help you. shes available when you need her. all in all , shes an ideal professor.
She's awesome! This is one teacher that loves teaching... She explains the material as many times as you need until you fully understand it. Wants all her students to pass and she'll definitely help you towards that goal
She is the best professor EVER!!! She is extremely helpful and explains the material until you get it. I dropped the class when I took it with prof McCall and was failing. When I got in prof. Figueiras class everything became clear and I ended up with an A. Take her if you can
Really helpful and caring, best math professor ever!!
I didn't learn a thing, horrible instructor. I would not recommend taking for mathematics.
You will fail her class or barely pass.shes really helpful but the content she provides is way diff than tests..she will find any way to deduct points.if you're new to the subject dont take her..
she is very nice person and she is always to help you at anytime.
She's really helpful & very nice, I agree to the person who said about recieving an F and it being so hard to get mad because she'll be nice an encourage you to be better. i suggest you to take her class :)
Very sweet. Explains everything enough for you to understand
wonderfull experience! She is extremely helpful and gives many chances to boost up grades. Shes really sweet and knows her stuff, shes on point with her office hours if anyone needed help. Her tests are straightforward. She also stays along with the pace of how fast her students are learning. absolutely loved her class!
She's great! She explains everything clearly, and willing to go back if one student has clarification. Knows her subject very well. Always there to help her students. Plus, she is a good looking professor and very sweet and kind. I would recommend to take her subjects.
Ines a great professor. She have respect for every student and will always you time if you not understanding the work. She break the math down so the poorest math student make sense of it. Awesome professor with a beautiful heart and soul.
Calculus is no joke, and if you want to pass, take her. She will do her best to help you understand and you will succeed no doubt. Best math professor at ECC
To be honest, probably the best math professor at ECC. If you're taking calculus, make taking her a priority
Prof. Ines is always in time for class. Asks questions before and after every subject. Will go back & explain if needed. Gives extra credit tests wc really helps. SUPER CLEAR in teaching. If you fail or get low grades on a test you'll admit that it's your fault, she's just too good for you to have problems with her. She entertain W.A. questions.
She is very helpful, and hers exams are fair. As long as you attend class and practice your calculus skills every now and then, you will pass!! She is one of the best professors left at ECC! Take her!
Best professor at ECC, very clear grading criteria, I gave her a 4 on easiness because she does love to give out extra credit which can boost your test grade by a full letter. However because of this she will be much more strict when it comes to grading, Overall very clear and the best professor in mathematics at ECC.
Explains the material very well. Gives extra credit on tests. Not a tough grader at all. If you do your work and pay attention in class you should do well.
professor Figueiras is a great professor! She is very clear when she teaches and she is very sweet. DO THE WEBASSIGN!!!! She will nag you about the webassign, suck it up and do it because you'll end up leaving it for last minute like I did. Love her, she is always there for her students. Definitely take her if you need to take a math class.
Great teacher, i didn't apply myself for the class but thats my own fault. she was outstanding and offers tutoring and any assistance you need. great teacher.
i was slacking and she really pulled me through and was determined to make sure i passed she even asked f that question i had in class if i was able to do the homework. made me appreciate calulus
She's very helpful and offers extra credit which many professors likely wouldn't do. It's a very difficult course but she tries to make you understand as much as possible. She will repeat or redo questions if you ask and won't get annoyed. Now that I have to take another math course, I wish I had this professor again.
She is ammmmmmeeeeeezing! I love her class. She is great person and helpful. If you do not understand, she will do over and over. I hope she teaches all classes. As long as you understand her material, you do not have any problem. Similer reviews questions are in the test.
Pro F was a hard grader for me. She's very nice and gives extra credit on every exam, but I fell behind because she moves very fast. If you're not good in math, I suggest taking lessons on youtube before taking her because she really expects you to know the material. If you're not good at factoring and graphing-she'll hate it. Expect no handouts.
She is passionate about her work. She worked in business for a long time, so she gives you a clear perspective about the real world. She is really nice and does not hesitate when it comes to helping any student. She gives amazing lectures, and you are gonna love her class. She also makes you think a lot.
we all know she is amazing. however, you need to know your basics. there were 30 students at the beginning, but only half showed up for the final. calc it self is not easy. on the other hand, she is prob the easiest and fairest of all the calc prof so far at essex. If you cant pass her, then you prob wont be able to pass anyone else.
Prof. Ines is a very good professor and she has time to explain every question that pops up during lectures. Her class is easy ones u try to focus and learn wat she teaches all the tym.
He is a grate teacher and explains very clear. Her lectures are well prepared and she explain everything in detail. Exams are pretty easy and took for in class assignments. She doesnt care if you attend class or not as long as your grades are good you will get a solid A. She is also available quite often to help with HW.
she is a great professor amazingggg
calculos is not an easy class over all. Prof figueiras is the best way to go at this college. if she was to be teaching above calc one I woud keep taking her. very organized with the teaching. She goes through each section and would point it out at what section shes at. not like others that you have to figure out the sections to study. Do your hw
Valuable classes. Good explanation. She helps you move forward at all times.
One of the best MathProfessors if I could take her for every Math class I will. The class is an easy A if you do the work. If u don't understand speak up and she would gladly explain until you get it. Attendance is not mandatory to pass but she still takes it textbook not necessary she writes everything on the board except word problems WA required
She doesnt rush through things and is willing to repeat a whole process just to make sure every one in the class is up to speed. I dont consider myself good at math especially not calculus but she made it easy for me.
She is a real gem of a teacher she understands when students are struggling and does her best to help. She is very understanding , in general calculus is not a easy subject to understand but she is a great teacher and doesn't have any problems with questions and going over stuff again one.
Horrible service and the class are really boring and u will nothing
She is an amazing professor I had at ECC. One of the top professors and can help you improve your grade by doing an assessment. When you ask a question, she can help you explain how to break down the problem, and she great at explaining things. I recommend taking this professor.
She assigns about 20-30 questions per section, which is good practice, but you should also be sure to schedule your time wisely. Loved her clear grading system on her syllabus. She outlines what she expects on the test scrap papers when you submit them to her, and how many points will be deducted for lates. Also very clear when explaining, too!
She is a tough grader but a good teacher
Prof. Figueiras, Is a wonderful teacher. Very Understanding. Its an easy to pass her class. She is an excellent Professor. I would take her class again. Best math teacher.
She is great. Take her if you have the chance!
Prof F. Is one of the best at ECc
Will always recommend her just as she had always been recommended to me. Her lectures are well prepared and very clear. Any topic that may have been unclear was always clarified even outside of class. She is respected and is always willing to help. She makes math more involving, too. Anyone who can think otherwise must have never liked math before.
She is very caring and a good professor.
Lectures were very clear and she always explained when something was not understood
She posts the modules and gives clear instructions on what needs to be done. Gives you a week to complete all assignments, although she can give multiple homework assignments at once and a project. Overall, an easy class if you just read the material.
Prof. Figueiras has made my math class a joy to attend, and I am very excited to learn new concepts and math skills. She has a youtube video relating to every one of her lectures in all of her classes, and she uses homework to help us really master the topics. She offers extra credit opportunities for those who are not good test takers.
You get the grade you worked for.
I do not like math and I always doubt myself when taking a test, but after taking Professor Figueiras' class, I became confident. She's organized, always on time, and willing to slow down and answer any questions one might have. She is always available during office hours and provides extra credit assignments to help you boost your grades.
She was one of my favorite professors. She provided a multitude of resources and chances to understand the work. She is willing to work with you and slow things down as long as you aren't afraid to ask. Professor Figueiras definitely cares about her students.
I took her class for Calc 1 during my time in Essex. She explained the topics very clearly. There was a lot of homework so be ready, however, it is good practice for the exams. She would hold reviews before exams so there would be no surprises either. If you get a chance to take her class, I would recommend it!
Bad professor, nobody uses PDF to teach math it has always been a board and pen, if she sets question what she teaches in class may seem easy but writing the exam is another story, hope she changes her teaching method, her class made someone changes their major out of stem
She explains the material well and does everything to prepare you for exams. She also gives helpful information about research opportunities, club activities, and resources for those who need them. However, she is the type to complain that things were different "back in my day" which can be annoying. But if you can ignore that, she's a solid prof
This professor has her own YouTube channel , she's amazing at teaching and even recommended by all the advisors to take for math. I had the pleasure of taking her this semester for stats and she was heaven sent, kind and very responsive and grades very fairly. She makes math easy!
She made it very easy for those with busy lives, all lessons were open in advance as well.
Took her at Rutgers wished she didn't teach based on slides, but her class was easy for me personally. Quizzes are 5 questions and partial credit is always enforced.
