Takes her time at the beginning of the term and then speeds up towards the end because she doesn't move at a fair pace all the way through. Quite honestly a waste of money to take this class if you don't already know calculus. First math class iv'e worried about passing because of her teaching style. steer clear,listen to her ratings on here chaps.

My first math class was with her and I'm a first year college student. She was so difficult and did not help at all. When we would ask for help she would get offended and answer in a sarcastic way. Do not recommend taking her, if your really good at math then you'll pass. I ended up dropping her class.

She starts off super slowly and then speeds up by a great amount as she realizes that she won't get through the material in a timely manner. She also wastes an hour of class by grading homework, when that could be done through an online service.

One of the worst teachers I've ever had. If you take this class expect to learn 98% of the material on your own. Her lectures were awful. She just solves problems in front of you and expects you to understand. She does not keep up with grades. Don't take her unless a) you're already really good at math b) you like really difficult teachers

With one month of the semester left, she has not graded a single homework assignment since March. Again, one month left and she hasn't given us a single exam. A lot of her homework assignments had the wrong questions, ex: chapter 13.1 questions only went up to 58, she assigned up to 78. Setting her students up for failure!

Hands down, worst professor I've ever had. Where do I start? All class long her "lectures" are drowned out by the sound of her loud breath and fans blaring into her cheap dollar store headset. The class is officially over, and she hasn't graded a modicum of work. She steps out of the room unannounced for up to 45 minutes every class. DO NOT TAKE

Hands down the most unorganized professor i ever had! She makes excuses for everything. She doesn't grade anything till the end so you don't know where you stand at all. PRETTY STRESSFUL RIGHT! She would give an unreasonable amount of questions (20) on a CALC3 EXAM and say you got an hour and 10min to finish. THE WORST PROFESSOR I EVER HAD! RUN!

It amazes me that someone so unprofessional can teach a calculus 3 course. I truly am at a loss for words. Nolan will not grade your assignments until the end of the course. It's as if she puts no effort at all into trying to grade assignments. Absolutely do not take a course in which she is the instructor.

On the first day I thought his class was tough and going into the third day I noticed the professor just goes through problems from the book without any lecture and with out explaining why and how to get the answers. I dropped this class before I failed and wasted a semester. I highly suggest looking for a different professor!

The professor is not completely there.She means well, but if you want to learn ANYTHING, do not take her. I gave her the benefit of doubt but I should've listen to the previous reviews. You cannot understand her lectures, she speaks super low, and tends to walk out for 30 minutes at times. I found myself looking trying to teach myself the lectures.

Professor Nolan is ok. If you want and challenge especially in math you could take her. UPDATE: I manage to pass her class while the rest of my classmates did not. It is about putting in work by studying and use time management to complete the work to be able to pass the class. She is calm but speaks very low so it makes it harder to hear.

WORST PROFESSOR EVER. I usually don't rate my professors but omg, I took Stats 227 at the beginning of fall, IT WAS A NIGHTMARE. The first day of class she was using headphones and was speaking EXTREMELY LOW, almost whispering, she also assigned like 50 exercises for homework without explaining anything. Dropped the class as soon as it ended.

DO NOT TAKE HER! Worst professor! I took her over the fall semester in person and the whole time she has you log into zoom and watch her through there and if you had questions you had to type them in the chat which can be difficult to explain. I practically had to teach myself the whole semester. She is also very boring and she has no emotions.

Rushed through the course and slammed us with several tests because she didn't know how to pace her class. She was late almost every day and would step out during the middle of the lecture for about 30 minutes. Luckily, I passed but I pretty much taught myself ALL of the material. Don't take unless you're willing to make your life harder.

When it comes to asking questions on doing homework, she will make you take a zoom call. From there instead of helping you understand the problem, she just does the homework for you going super fast not explaining much. I would not recommend this professor as she comes to class late and seems to not care if one passes of fails. no extra credit.

Kind and flexible with deadlines, but the class was long, slow, and hard to follow. I often struggled, with latenight hw & 8:50 a.m. deadlines leaving no time for tutoring. Explanations were unclear, not everyone understood math terms easily. Full Lec + Exams days, rush, assignments time-consuming, and by mid-October only one thing was graded.

This is the worst professor I have had at ELAC. She has very slow lectures that make it difficult to absorb the material. I had to use youtube lectures to keep up and homework was always due at 8:50am which made it difficult to get a good nights rest and also get help outside of class. Take another professor.

First semester here at ELAC and I had to drop this class. It was a zoom class and the lectures were very slow and they did not help with the homework. LOTS of homework, she was lenient about the deadlines though. Hated using MiniTab software since on my laptop it did not look like hers. She is a nice professor, but the class was unbearable.

If your a new student or think in taking this course, I recommend to look elsewhere. Professor is ALWAYS, ALWAYS late and the way the professor explains the lesson is so confusing, even having notes is pointless in tests. The tests the professor gives are so complicated to where questions involves poking through the internet which is ridiculous.

Our class was in person and she would use zoom as a whiteboard which would be hard to understand what she was doing. She wears a headset and it's very hard to hear her, sounds like if she were mumbling. if you go to her office hours she will not even answer your questions properly and instead make you seem like you are doing everything wrong.

(MATH241S) Fall 2025 Isn't a rude teacher, she's very boring with SUPER boring lectures and has bad hearing. Grading is weird but very clear, it is switched with a random student, graded, then collected back to be inputted for your score. They're is a total of 4 chapter exams and 1 final exam. Only took attendance the first day of class.
