She is the BEST teacher I have had for a math class!!! She will go over anything you need help with and will not move onto another subject until everyone understands it in the class. Goes over everything and writes it all out on the board and explains everything in a great way! TAKE HER!!!!!
Very good prof. Can be a little hard to understand at times, but will make sure that everyone gets it before moving on. HW is not mandatory, which is nice, and her tests are usually fairly easy as long as you pay attention in class and take notes. Made calculus almost an easy subject.
Great professor! Helps you no matter what! Highly recommend!
Dr. Ivana Ilic is the best math teacher I've EVER had! I was really nervous going into calculus, expecting it to be barely passable. Her tests and quizzes are fair, and when I had her they were all multiple choice. She goes over each and every step and goes over anything that's unclear if you have any questions. She wants her students to succeed.
She is the best teacher I have ever had in college so far! (I took calc 1 at UF and dropped) She is very clear and concise and lets you know what will be on the test. Homework is optional, but is critical for success on tests and quizes. She also grades very generously as she curves each test and quiz for my summer A class. Got a 99 in the class!
Accent is a little hard to understand. She talks to make sure everyone understands, but it was almost to the point of talking down to us. She makes SOME simple things a little harder than it needs to be. OK overall I guess. Book is optional, but she uses it in class. Did show how to use website and calculators.
She is a great professor and is very helpful and patient. She takes her time explaining things and ensures that most of the class understands before moving on. She somehow managed to get 16 weeks of material into 7. Her tests were easy enough if you studied the material and attended class. Would DEF RECOMMEND!!!
Extremely helpful professor. She knows what she is doing and always makes sure that the class is learning and getting what she is teaching before moving along. Her tests are fair, and she does drop the lowest one. Definitely recommend, she is worth it.
She is generally easy going but at times teaches at such a fast pace. The book is optional. Her tests are challenging since the answer is within common mistakes that students make. No extra credit is given and your homework grade is counted as a test score.
She is simply amazing. Thorough in covering every nuance of a problem type. If the class looks confused to her, she will rephrase in an attempt to get us to see something as clearly as she does. Really cares that you understand the material. Grades are earned, not given. Homework is required. Gives quizzes. Tests are multiple choice.
The class is tough, however, she is willing to explain or help in any way. The accent is thick but nothing you can't understand. She doesn't give any extra credit or extend any deadlines for any reason. If you're good at math you should be fine with her
Very good teacher. I am taking her Calculus class. Her accent is not strong and those who cannot understand her are simply stupid. She explains everything and is very clear. I did not like the class only because of some "slower" students who were asking same stupid questions over and over. But the teacher knows what she is talking about.
I loved her! Yes, she has an accent, but its not hard to follow at all. She is the only prof I've ever had that is actually concerned with how well the entire class is following along. She will not move on until we all get it. I'm okay at math and I did fantastic on her tests. If you pay attention, you'll do great!
She is THE BEST teacher who I ever saw and listened. She will help you ever if have a something problem. Thank her for all!!! TAKE HER!!!
i love this proffesor she cares about her students and listens to comments and will try her best to adjust i find that she does not like kids leaving class early. she wont say anything but base on her reaction you can tell. so if you take her please respect that and stay until class is over or dont come at all
AWESOME! Clear and easy to understand. Really wants her students to succeed. Highly recommended.
Great teacher. Very thorough and wants to see her students succeed. I have taken her for 2 different math courses, I highly recommend her, especially if you struggle with math. HW helps, I advise to show up for class because it's always new material. No extra credit, just buy online code.
Took Professor Illic for Calc 2 and she is wonderful. Understands the material flawlessly, and is extremely concerned about student progress. She realizes this is a very difficult course, and she wants to see her students succeed. I highly recommend her.
She has a very heavy accent and is not understandable. Her numbers and letters that she writes on the board are not clear and all look the same. Although she cares about student progress, she relies far too much on the online "My Math Lab". Its used for homework, text book, etc. I dont like her teaching style. She isnt clear and direct.
Excellent Professor. I am a terrible math student, and she managed to get calculus into my head. Her enthusiasm for the subject is contagious. Highly recommend.
She is an awesome teacher. She knows a lot and she explains very clearly. I had this class for summer and had an A+.
Great Professor! Little homework, not mandatory to attend, no quizzes just tests, cumulative final. Must do homework and practice problem set to pass tests though.
loved her for pre calc of business now taking pre calculus for my major with her in spring
The class and test were kinda hard. I manged to get a B in the class but it took a lot of work. I talked to a few people in the class and they were nearly failing. She has an Russian accent that takes a while to get used to.
Allow me to preface my comment by saying "I despise math" and school as a matter of fact. Prof Ilic did a stunning job at being clear, organized and prepared to EVERY class. Her love for math motivates to do well in class. The class wasn't a breeze but good environment to succeed. Pace was average. Way less difficult than regular Calc (from hell).
LOVED HER! I HATE math, but still got an A. Must do the homework. Tests were easier than the homework. Would def recommend.
Very great teacher. Makes the content understandable. Always open to help and easy to talk to one on one. She's very sweet. This is not a breezy course. It's a lot of content and a lot of homework in a short period of time, tests are fair. Be prepared to study
She is an amazing teacher. I had her for Intermediate Math and even though I am horrible at math, she made it really easy. She uses a slow-paced curriculum that allows students to ask questions and comprehend what they are being taught. It is very clear and the test are super easy. All of the homework and practice is online and it shows due dates.
No interaction but was a super easy class. There was ALOT of homework problems just giving a heads up, but there was only 4 test and one had to be taken on campus.
Very clear on how you will be graded and gives extra credit quizzes that go towards tests. You must go to class if you want to pass with at least a B.
She's very nice, and means very well, but no matter how clear it is that she cares about her students, she can't explain things clearly at all. She really knows her stuff, but not how to teach it to people that don't. If you aced College Algebra, you might do okay with her - that is, if you can handle the massive amount of homework.
As a math lover I struggled in her class. would not recommend she is very confusing and unclear during lectures.
Online class, Prof always answered questions right away. Mid Term and Final at testing center and we were NOT allowed any notes.
Ask questions if you don't understand. I procrastinated too much and got C's on all the test. She's nice and will answer questions, but if you keep saying you don't understand she gets frustrated. Always willing to help in her office hours, but gets frustrated as well. Homework is 15 points.
A little hard to understand if you dont have a firm concept on the basics, but I think that's most math. She expects participation, but gets frustrated when no one wants to. Gets a little flustered if you want her to elaborate further. I learned most of the material via the mylabsplus homework
Proffessor Ilic is a great teacher. She knows her subject and is willing to help students to understand it. I took Calculus 1 for summer classes and she made it as easy as possible, you should do just fine if you do your hw and study the textbook. Students who didn't do the hw ended failing and dropping 2 days before the final. Use your textbook!!!
Prof. Ilic is very knowledgeable, and responds well to class feedback. Calc 2 is a difficult class and she made it somewhat enjoyable. Occasionally her accent was somewhat difficult to understand.
She is a great teacher and she really cares about her students. You get homework and it takes time to do it so I wouldn't wait till last minute. Her tests are not long and we had the chance in our class to make up the lowest grade. I'm awful at math by the way, at the end though I didn't mind it much.
Professor Ilic is awesome! She cares about her students, is helpful, and is flexible. I would take her again in a heart beat. Math in general is hard and because of her flexibility I was able to get through this class during a really tough time. Thanks Professor! Of course we had homework 4 quizzes, 4 test, and a final. Couple extra cred questions.
I took this class online, it was a bit difficult, because math isn't my strong point. Professor illic is amazing. I would recommend anyone to take her class. She really cares about her students.
I took this class online. The one part i really hated was that we could not use a notecard for the proctored exams. Its really hard to remember all the formulas without it.
This professor was amazing for Intermediate Algebra online. This class went by fast, but it was because it was a summer course.
I struggle with math and she helped me as much as she could. I ended up with a 68 and she passed me with a 70. If you need help, go to her office hours, she's really nice. Her accent isn't that bad. It's understandable.
One of the BEST math professors at FSW. Was very clear concise in her lectures, test were multiple choice and straightforward. Liberal homework policy (time at the end to make up missed work). I am TERRIBLE at math and she taught me more than I learned in the last 3 semesters. Does not grade attendance..
Professor Ilic was great and I would take her class again in a minute. This was an online class and when I did not understand something should would send video explanations or detailed explanations via email. She was available to meet with me also to work through concepts that were unclear. I highly recommend taking her class.
Work done thru mylabplus. Quick feedback on emails with good explanations. Great teacher, helps when you ask. Keep a notebook while working thru HW questions & quizzes and write out questions&answers.I am not good at math, but I put in about 10 hrs a week and made it.
prof ilic is very nice. she is a good professor and will help you do well. her accent was hard to understand at first but i began to understand he quickly. would take her again and recommend.
Great
I thought professor Ivana Llic teaches the material a little too fast at times,ex specially towards the end of the semester. Her lectures also could be a little more thorough .
Solid choice
She really cares about her students. She makes sure everyone understands the material, before moving on. She also makes it very clear to ask questions if we don't understand something, and she teaches very clearly at at a decent pace. If she feels the class isnt ready for a test next class, she will postpone it to the following class.
Be prepared to put in A LOT of work for LITTLE time to do so
The course was fine. Just do all the homework, quizzes, and test before the due date. Test 2 has to be proctored on campus and so does the final. Other than that, it was a relatively easy class.
She is one of the best math teachers. She is very concerned about your overall grade and wants to learn. I would take her again for another math class.
Fantastic math professor. Highly recommend.
Great.
Professor Ilic is the best.
Great professor. Highly recommend prof ilic
Fantastic online professor.
Fantastic online professor highly recommend.
Fantastic.
Nice professor. Breaks down algebra so that it is easy. Won't move on unless she knows everyone understands :)
Great professor. Highly recommend.
Prof Ilic is the absolute best.
Good teacher, a lot of homework
too much HW
Amazing math professor!! Took her for both College Algebra and Business Calc. She is always willing to answer questions and help students. Tests are very similar to her reviews. Lots of homework, but you will see this in every math class, no matter what professor you get.
Took her for intermediate algebra online. Shes pretty helpful and easy going.
Class could be taken online
While she was generally nice & a decent professor as far as lectures, she didn't offer any kind of extra credit and didn't reply to my emails which was frustrating in a mini class. There's a lot of homework and she doesn't bother trying to create a relationship with students. For a $500 course (access code & a $100 calculator), I'm disappointed.
I took this class online during the summer. I passed with an A but it wasn't an easy A. She had great study guides for each lesson but horrible lecture videos that looked like they were from the 80s. She responds to emails but not immediately. Very caring and lots of homework (which was 10% of your grade). There were 4 quizzes, midterm, and final.
I took Ivana for business calc. I recognize a lot of the same formulas in microeconomics. She was helpful and open and secretly funny! She has a passion for math and her exams reflect her lectures. Don't procrastinate on the MyLab. You don't need a textbook. Study your notes/handouts. Made a good friend a that year. I miss my friend and that class
Took her for a mini term and even though there is very little time, she makes the work manageable. Very good at explaining things too, highly recommend.
My favorite math professor at this school. Has an accent but is still easy to understand.
The best math professor I've ever had! Gives step by step instructions on how to work problems and makes tough courses super manageable. She genuinely cares and wants everyone to pass.
Dr. Ilic was an amazing professor. The class was obnoxiously easy for me, but if you are someone that struggles with math she is AMAZING! She makes sure she walks through how to do the problems both by hand and by calculator and if at any point you need help in class she will come over to you and help. She is really a great STATS prof.
4 tests (2 are proctored) and a proctored final exam. MLP is set to allow unlimited tries on homework, 3 on quizzes, and 2 on tests. The tests make up a large portion of your grade(45%). Sometimes doesn't respond to emails but if you ask for zoom meeting to go over material, she will help you. Extends the due date and accepts late work w no penalty
4 test (three are proctored) plus a final exam (which is also proctored). If you struggle in math dont take her online. You will struggle and fail. I thought two of her test were proctored but it was 3 and a final exam. So a total of four proctored test.
Professor Ilic ha been the best math professor I've had. She explains everything step by step. She makes math easier. She is a pretty though professor. Expect to have lots of HW. Test are pretty easy if you take notes and pay attention to what she says. Overall great experience. I'm taking her again this semester for Calculus Business.
Dr. Ilic prepares you for her tests and prepares you for your future math classes. She is a strong mathematician. She gives great explanations and will attempt to go until everyone has understood the material. Some people have a rough time with math but I recommended her.
Amazing professor! She takes her time to explain everything clearly. Before she continues on with her next lecture, she will do an overview of what we went over last class jic we forgot. I hate math, but she genuinely made me interested in statistics. I would definitely recommend taking her if you can. Pearson MyLab and $100 calc are required.
WORST PROFESSOR I HAVE EVER HAD! I'm not sure how she has good reviews I took her online and she did not provide the right resources for the chapters everything was unorganized so u had to end up looking up the chapters yourself and if you email her She's very vague and comes off as rude not helpful. Classavg on the final was 60 keep that in mind.
The professor herself is good, however the resources provided are messy and confusing. The videos are old- they look like they're from the 80s. The class itself is very hard to get a good grade in as Tests are 45% (Proctored), the Final is 25%, and quizzes are 15%. In general, doing your homework is pointless, so it makes it hard for me to learn.
Professor Ilic was amazing, her lectures were easy to understand and she enjoyed it when students asked her questions. She was caring and would ask the class their opinions about test and homework due dates. She was very understanding after the hurricane. Study and you will pass. Lots of homework assignments and 5 major exams. Would take again!
I would not take Professor Ilic again for any class because of the way she explained things unnecessarily complicated. I was able to pass because I had prior knowledge of algebra. For the things I did not know how to do I had to get outside help, which was often a more straightforward and clearer way to solve the problem. Homework on each lesson.
Professor Ilic is so nice and honestly wants to help her students and is willing to go over things until everyone understands. She goes in depth about the topics and actually teaches the concepts. A lot of testing though,
I didn't interact with her at all. Tests were easy, but she doesn't allow writing programs for your calculator, so don't get caught. Comprehensive final + two other proctored tests. Easy if you do all the homework. Don't have to do any of the reading, just do the practices. Says she doesn't allow late-work, but absolutely does. Allows notecards.
Trigonometry is hard and taking it online over the shortened summer semester is even harder. I ended the class with an A, as her exams are quite easy if you understand the concepts/homework. However, she is not very accessible through email and does not like students to take exams early (again, an online course with no instruction?)
I took this class online & majority of what I learned was taught through YouTube rather than through the professor. The assignments do not match up with what is on the tests at all. The assignments are long as well & do absolutely nothing for your grade. She is a last minute grader, so the discussions are held off until the end to be graded.
I took this professor for online Statistics and for the most part she was unhelpful and didn't grade things until the very end of the semester. The was a lot of homework that was only worth 10% of the final grade, the tests were the majority of your grade and they didn't match up to the home work which was frustrating.
Great professor to take for Business Calc. You get multiple attempts on quizzes and tests, which makes things a lot easier for you. It's an overall difficult course, but with her support, and the wide range of available resources through the Hawkes Learning program, you will be able to succeed!
I read a previous comment mentioning they could not understand her because of her accent, but it is not noticeable at all. The course itself is hard, and the tests are heavily weighted, so make sure to take advantage of all the resources available.
2 Proctored tests, all the hw is on MyMathLab with unlimited attempts. 3 attempts for quizzes 2 for tests. The content is easy if you go along with the powerpoints or google. There are a couple discussions that she grades months later, but overall very straightforward. Quick class, could probably finish it in 4 weeks if you really wanted to.
She does a good job at explaining concepts when people don't understand it. However, she sometimes overcomplicates certain things. The lectures are very useful if you are the type of person that teaches yourself the content. The exams weighed a lot so make sure to study. If you do the homework and study the tests are pretty easy.
Professor Illic is an amazing professor that cares for her students. The study guides line up very similarly to the exam, so doing well on the study guide should equal success on the exams. She always goes out of her way to explain topics if someone doesn't understand.
Well spoken and helped students understand the material in-depth.
