Do not take mod class unless you know all the material before signing up for it.

I bombed the first 2 exams (sub 60 on both) and still passed with a B-. Her grading is very generous and she has lots of EC. She has worksheets that's due every week, all of which are to make sure you study the current chapters. Book wasn't needed, her videos and slides were enough. She seems strict at first but she's a real care bear. Recommended.

Great professor. J.P is always willing to provide feedback and gives lots of extra credit. Take her if you need ELEMENTARY ALGEBRA OR ANY MATH CLASS.

Professor Peart was very fast paced. Im decent at Algebra, but its concerning for weaker students. She also makes sarcastic remarks about low grades. After a series of six 20 questioned tests, she gives you a 35-40 question final exam, and only gives the same amount of time as the 20 question tests. Heads up, she doesnt round either.

Highly recommend Professor JP! She gives extra credit, makes videos going over material, makes practice tests that prepare you for exams and emails you back instantly. You have to put EFFORT into this class if you want to do well. The exams are proctored but its no big deal. Overall very happy I took this class and recommended everyone to Prof JP!

3 tests (100pts) and a final (200pta). No hw because of 8 week summer term but if taking the usual there is weekly worksheets, which follow the lecture and help on the tests. Optional webassign is quite long however I found lecture videos and worksheets to be enough. Make sure to write down all work for partial credit and use study helpers mostly

JP is a great professor! Her lecture videos were very easy to follow and she has a really sweet, down to earth personality She posts worksheets that are very helpful for gauging exam material, gives out extra credit, responds to e-mails fast, and offers an 100 point homework option which really boosts your grade! Would recommend for Calculus 2.

This is the greatest Professor to step foot on planet earth. I took calc 1 &2 at Oakland University and decided to take calc lll over the summer and she is by far the best Professor I have had to date. If you want to pass, do all of the worksheets they reflect the exams.

I usually don't rate Professors, but I have to with JP. Calculus is tough sometimes, but she just makes life easier and not stressful to students. I had an 8 week class with her and I learned more than a 15 week class. Absolutely the best. Highly recommended. she really cares about her students. I always loved her. I wish they are all like her.

JP is like everyone says; but if you are looking to learn, I do not recommend. She skips parts of lessons she personally dislikes, and explains the obvious but speeds through formulas. She does not teach the course, only what to do to pass her test. She teaches how, not why. If you desire an education and not just credit, avoid this professor.

Mrs. Peart made me want to learn math again, she made everything pretty straight forward and her online videos on D2L made easy studying for exams. If you struggle with math I suggest her, you will pass if you put the time and effort in and she even drops your lowest test score and offers extra credit opportunities! Take JP!!

This is my favorite Professor at OCC. She cares about her students. She goes far beyond then teaching. I would highly recommend her if you have a hard time with math and gives great notes. She is amazing and kind. I have taken her for other math courses too! Work hard- do homework - study and try will get you a great grade!

This is my favorite professor at OCC and I have had a lot of professors. She makes math seem simple compared to other professors. I enjoy taking her & she goes far beyond her teaching requiments. She cares about her students. I love having her as my math professor. I highly recommend her to anyone who struggles with math and her notes are great.
