the BEEEEEST, the Mooooooost understanding professor you could ever find. If you want to enjoy your math class and not think at allllll how to pass the class she is the one. Good luck!!!
She is a really good teacher; her tests are easy; she explains everything... take her!
very helpfull, good teacher
doesnt get any better than this in my class 95 percent of the class got A's. The class is easy but very helpful. It's not like she just gives you the A, you learn a lot too.
Considering it was internet, you only showed up once a month. She is a very easy teacher. I wouldn't know about clear of helpful since I never attended the lectures, but over all an easy A.
Excelent teacher. The hardest for me in math is the word problems and for the first time I actually understood how to solve them with this teachers help. Good luck, good teacher to take for math.
Like how she gives her lessons. They are really clear and specific, always glad to help the students.
Shes very friendly and helpfull, you learn the matterial
She was nice and helpful, and she gave some extra credit oppurtunity.
THE BEST TEACHER AT PIERCE. Made math really interesting and easy to understand. Take her online class, do all the homework, and get at least an average of C+ on all 3 midterms and you will most likely pass this class with a B. Highly recommend!! Thanks MRS. MARTINEZ
I got an A but earned every bit of it. Great teacher!!!!!
Mrs.Martinez is a great teacher. I always hated math. She has made me enjoy it again. KUDOS!!!!
I used to hate math so much, but after her class, it actually isn't that bad. She's such a great teacher. Very helpful, very understanding. Gives you so many opportunities to pull your grades up! I love her!
Nice person but unorganized. I wouldn't take a class with her again.

Mrs. Martinez is the best math teacher I've ever had, hands down. She's sweet, helpful, and goes over everything as many times as you need her to. She empathizes with students who don't understand and will go out of her way to help you. I love her. I hope to take her again, if possible.
internet class-real bad-not clear-hard to understand
her teaching was very clear and understanding. As long as you do homework everyday you'll be good.
hER EXAM ARE EASIER THEN THE BOOK WORK. sHE EXPLAINS THE MATERIAL REAL WELL AND IS VERY NICE. i'M TAKING HER FOR MATH 125 sHE'S THE BEST
She is really nice and extremely helpful.The first thing she does in class is answer any questions that students have from homework,then she givess her lecture.Gives extra credit and lets students turn homework late and does not grade homework until the midterm ;) comes a little late,that gave me time to do homework.
Jennifer Martinez is awesome. She is a little unorganized, however, her teaching technique has made me love math. She explains well, uses many examples, and is highly interested in wanted the student to pass. She will give every opportunity for the student to pass if failing, only if effort is put in the class. I would take her again.
Online Class, VERY EASY!!! I got an A, and i suck in math, it's easier with her and online. I will keep on taking her or her online class whenever i can. She's also nice.
She is a great teacher. She will explain any problem you ask her to. She'll help you after class if you're still not getting the concept. She gives too many opportunities to turn in homework. Slow on grading tests. Somewhat disorganized, but that can be overlooked because she really wants to help and always approaches you like you can do the math.
Great teacher. Knows her stuff and how to explain. She may seem stict, but she is very nice. Take her, you will learn a lot.
Seems to only copy problems from the book and work them on the board very quickly. VERY disorganized!!!
This is my second time taking a class with Mrs. Martinez, and she's just as wonderful as before. The class is more difficult, but she's willing to help as always. She wants her students to pass and gives them all the help she can, and there are extra credit and group assignment opportunities. Best math teacher at Pierce, hands down.
Mrs Martinez is not a bad teacher I took her for math 115 and 125. Of course Math 115 was easier,and Math 125 was harder. I thought she didn't really explain well in math 125. She went too fast in this class. She knows her stuff. Not a hard grander. You have to study in this class especially if the material is new to you. Get somebody who knows th
I took her Math 110 Internet class this past fall 2005. You just have to go to the lectures, make sure you send your internet homework before the math test. The class was alright. Just make sure you really study for solving equations. Have fun.
This teacher is hot garbage she is so boring and so confusing.
not a hard class if you attend it!
she is too nice. her class was very easy i got an A! she is always willingto go out of her way if you dont understand something. and she tries to teach you the easy way of solving things instead of the hard way, she will still teach you the hard way if it applies to the level of the course. take her if you want an A
This teacher is really boring it seems she is explaining just to herself and she speaks too much most of the time you even has to ask her what page she is at because she assume you are looking through her eyes
SHE IS A REALLY GOOD TEACHER...JUST DO YOUR WORK AND DONT MISS TOO MUCH CLASS...SHE IS HELPFUL AND WILL GO OUT OF HER WAY TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND THE MATERIAL...SOMETIMES SHE TALKS A LOT...BUT OVERALL REALLY GOOD TEACHER
i thought she was a good teacher. she has extreme patience with her students. she makes sure that her students understand the material. she will answer all questions. "there are no stupid questions". she doesnt grade too hard. just make sure you pay attention she can really teach you something.
great teacher i really like her if you can pass then you really need alot of help
IF YOU ARE BAD AT MATH, TAKE HER CLASS!! She goes out of her way to help you pass!!! She lets you RE-TAKE your exams if you don't like your grade! That is a darn good deal people! I am SOOO STUPID in math and I got a B!!! If I can get a B anyone can pass! She is really cool and patient!!!!!!!
PROFESSOR MARTINEZ IS A GREAT TEACHER YOU WILL LEARN FROM HER IF YOU ATTEND CLASS I SUGGEST YOU DO SHE MAKES SLOVING THE MATH EASY AND IS WILLING TO HELP YOU
Professor Martinez was, by far, my favorite math teacher yet. She is the epitome of a clear, helpful math teacher. She gives make-up exams and extra credit for pete's sake! If you go to class and ask her questions, you will pass. I got an A in her class. TAKE HER!
What a wonderful teacher. She was so generous and willing to help. I was so intimidated by Math, but she helped me overcome that. Her class was well organized and not too fast paced. Wish I could take her again. If you want an A you must earn it, but she is a fair grader so it is possible if you work hard. Highly recommend!!!!!
She is a great teacher and a great person outside of teaching. She takes those extra steps to help a student out. There is EXTRA CREDIT here and there, but not that much. If math isn't your thing, then take this class. 75% use of the book, A LOT of help after class and has a good sense of humor. What else can you ask for?
does not teach well, doesnt know how to do half of the problems herself. doesnt care about teaching the material and making sure you understand it, shes just concerned about moving on and getting through the material. i would say stay away from this teacher! minimum of one quiz/test a week
I took the Math 125 online class with Professor Martinez and it was a great experience. There was A LOT of book work to do, followed by computer work, online quizes, & 4 in-class tests. The Course Compass program is awesome. You can watch videos & see examples on how to solve the problems. A great learning tool. Lots of work, but highly recommend!!
She is not horrible, she actually gives point away by giving you a home work quiz same asthe HW.Group assignments are essay and she helps u with it. Exames are mostly like HW problem plus u can ask her anything. extra credit is availble once in two weeks.She kinds of go fast butthere is allt of material,do the HWand understand them then u get A.
The exams are like the homework problems, and you can use your graphing calculator (BUY THE TI-89!!!) Also there are 3 skills tests you can't use your calculator on. She offers a lot of extra credit and gives homework quizzes everyweek. In her lectures she's all over the place, just do the hw and you'll get the A.
If you really want to learn Calc 2, I would NOT recommend taking this professor. If you just want the A, then this is the professor for you. 5 100pt Exams, 1 Final(200 pt), Homework quizzes(free points if you do the HW), 3 50pt skills tests(no calculator), & group assignments. I think I screwed myself over for Calc 3 by taking this class.
Love this teacher. hated math and failed all my life till i got to her class. i came to the lectures even though they were not mandatory and she really helped me. a lot of homework online and from the book but i think thats the only way to practic/learn math (for me anyway). i recomand!
the hybrid class is great because you do your quizzes and homework at home; Mrs. Martinez is willing to help you on the discussion board, in the class, via email; really really good teacher
I took Prof. Martinez Math 115 online/lecture class. Her class is easy. I understood the material and lectures that she gave. Great Professor.
She is a great math teacher! teaches very well! If you have trouble in math, go to her. She will help you, but you also must be willing to try and work at it.
She is an amazing person. Even though she hasn't thought calc 2 for 5 years and struggled first week, she was extremely helpful after. She will do everything to help you with your homework. Even though math is not my favorite subject, the class was pretty easy overall. Do the homework and you will get an A!!! Lots of EC! Recommended!
Great teacher, very passionate and will adjust the pace to the class's understanding of the material. Show up everyday and do the work, and she will make sure you get the grade you deserve.
Great teacher & balances points so you can get a solid B if you do the assignments (even when you are a C or lower on tests). Did a hybrid class & went in only when I needed help & for 4 in class tests.
She is overall the best teacher ive had at pierce in the past year. She cares about her students and wants you to learn the material. Anyone who says shes a bad teacher didnt try to learn and probably failed the class. HIGHLY recommend taking her. Is possible try to take the asap program if she is still available to teach it.
Very confusing when explaining problems If it wasn't for the fact that I already knew most of the material I would have had trouble. If she doesn't like you she'll tend to ignore you and avoid your questions, also if you ask too many questions she'll somewhat politely tell you to be quiet. gives too much problems to do for each section.
Totally enjoyed Jenni. Everything was awesome and exactly as explained on the online Syllabus. Take her if you can get her!
AMAZINGGG TEACHER! honest and helpful. The half online is a good class to take. you dont have to come to class if you finish homework for lecture that day! Drops your lowest test and quiz score too! MUST TAKE LOVE HER!
Oh my god I freaking love her! Got an A and I breezed through it! U got to take her!
one of the exciting class I've ever had. I like the way she taught us,. and the tests are easy, and hey they were open book tests. what could u ask more?
She is an excellent teacher. With her all that is needed is to attend class and study. She is willing to help you as long as she sees that you are trying. She has extra credit almost every week. She is always trying to answer everyone questions. Great teacher!
Mrs. Martinez is a ROCK STAR!!!! I truly loved her! She is so helpful! She cooks everything for you on board- you just need a spoon! She is a STAR in class! Funny, witty, a little sarcastic!! YOU WILL LOVE HER!!! take her class! ADD her class!!! i wish she was teaching math 125. I really miss her!!
She is an awesome teacher! She will absolutely everything and anything so that you get the material and everyone in the class is together. HW quizzes are straight from the homework and she lets you use open book, open notes, and your homework for all quizzes. TAKE HER CLASS! you won't regret it!!
Overall good professor. Class is a whole lot of work seeing as its 2 classes combined in one but just do the hw and all the quizzes and you'll pass. She gives practice tests before every exam which is frankly what helped me ace all my exams. Highly recommended
As crazy as the ASAP program is, Martinez makes it totally doable. She gives a fair amount of homework, but it's your hw quiz and test scores that really count. She gives practice tests and the hw quizzes are open book, so she really does everything she can to help you succeed. As she says, you will be eating, breathing, and dreaming about algebra.
Martinez is awesome she makes it math 125 so easy. She explains the material very well, and she will help you with your grade and make sure you do good in class.
She teaches really good. You have to attend all classes in order to understand all the material. Also as long as you do your homework nightly you'll do good on the test. Pay attention and study and your guaranteed to pass her class. Good Luck!
She's a great teacher. Don't miss class because you'll miss a lot. But other than that if you do your homework and do good on the test, you'll pass. And the test are easy if you study. I recommend her.
I took this teacher for Asap and I'll i can say is I owe her she made me get the material great teacher and slows down if u need her too
She is an amazing professor, she explains and delivers easly, answers all questions, HW is fair. She gives time after class at her office (certain days) to help. Simply amazing. I love math because of her.
Too busy to respond to emails. The final exam ended up being worth a lot of points accumulated the entire semester so basically all the work done up to the final exam doesn't count for anything. I had an A the whole semester & didn't do well on the final & got a D in the class. That is unfair grading! What of waste of time & money.
Great professor!
really friendly and gives feedback right away. if she sees you're struggling she'll offer or sometimes extend dates for better understanding. I took this course during the summer so it was fast (3 chapters a week). Theres an on campus final overall very chill course! :D
The class was easy for me because I understand this subject pretty well so it was a breeze. Received a 99% in the class. The final is taken on campus but she gives you an outline of things you need to know. She gives three tries per quiz and one for the chapter test. Pretty simple. The homework takes 12hrs/ch at most so start early in the week.
She is very nice and gives you alot of chances to do extra credit
Taking math online isn't as hard as you would think. You can take assignments, tests, and exams multiple times. Learning at your own pace is also a plus!
Mrs. Martinez is a true sweetheart. I took her Math ASAP. This was not an easy class by any means. However, she was so workable and helpful. If you put in the work (and you have to to pass/get a good grade) she will meet you half way and do everything she can to help you. She gives extra credit. Go to her tutor Edward! They will help you succeed.
Amazing professor
She is what all teacher should inspire to be. She truly cares about her students, always available. She cares about teaching. Outstanding teacher. Thank You, Mrs. Martinez.
I knew taking ASAP Math would not be easy and super time consuming but i absolutely enjoyed this class and learned so much. She's so great when it comes extra credit. She's super understanding and although its 2 math classes in 15 weeks, she made everything super exciting and smooth sailing! Super cool that the books aren't super pricey!
We had so many assignments, quizzes, and exams through out the whole semester. I made sure to turn in every assignment on time and would stay up late at nights to finish. Through out the whole semester I maintained my grade as an A. I did not do so well on my final exam so she did not pass me, i ended up with a D. I seriously wasted my time.
I was so excited to take her because of the reviews & ratings on here which are hard to find when looking for a math professor. But it is impossible to follow her teaching in class. Loses her train of thought & is basically talking to herself the entire class. She has no structure to her class even though she tries to make it seem like she does.
She is so great. I highly recomend taking her! I took her for ASAP 115 & 125 together. It was not easy but she made it so much easier for me to understand the material. Gives extra credit opportunities! I passed with an A. If your not dedicated to take this class and study on a daily basis i don't recommend taking both classes at the same time.
Great teacher took the online class it was hard and there is tons of Homework but she gives you 3 quiz attempts . 4 tests and lots of discussions to help boost your grade. MET is 40% of your grade so make sure you prepare for it ! I passed with a C and was happy with it !
I took this class and this class alone since math is a hard subject for me to grasp. I turned in hw, participated in ALL 3 of the different group forums, and turned in my Quizzes and exams. Getting in contact with her took several emails to accomplish. I had a B before the MET but finished with a D due to the final exam. Wasted so much time and $.
This has to be one easiest class I took because everything is basic math. If you know how to do basic math believe me this class will be an easy A or B for you. Gives a lot of homework but they're all easy so don't worry. The final is basically everything you did throughout the semester and believe me when I say it is easy.
Lots of homework, go to tutoring if you don't understand she gives you multiple chances for extra credit, she wants you to pass so she will do everything to help you super caring.
I took her for math 115 online. We had a quiz for every chapter but we could retake it up to 3 times. There is so much homework as well. Math is my worst subject but now I understand it so much better. I passed with an A. Definitely recommend.
She is the worst professor and is extremely disrespectful! She takes a long time to grade assignments, and respond to student emails. She is very rude, and does not care.
Professor Martinez is sweet and caring. Her lectures are heavy; don't be afraid, she will answer all of your questions, or have you meet with her during her office hours. She wants all of her students to succeed. She also has lectures online to help you, but does not replace her class lectures. She also gives you opportunities for extra credit.
Have to take her linear algebra.. Very unorganized and unhelpful lecture. What she does is basically going over the examples in the books like reading. Doesnt connect concepts between chapters well. But she is a nice person, just doesnt teach well.
she is one of the best professors in the pierce college. She is awesome. I recommend her.
I took her class online. You have to pay for access to MyMathLab and the online textbook. There is homework and a quiz every week along with discussions and projects. The on campus final is worth 40% of your grade and you MUST get a 50% or above or you automatically fail the class. Study and do your homework and you will pass.
she is amazing and helpful. I took her online course and when ever I would need help she would offer her office hours to teach me. her online course is super easy and you can understand it easily.
Her class is pretty straight forward. She has quizzes almost every week, but the questions are usually easy questions from the book. Her tests are not difficult as long as you finish and understand homework problems.
Martinez really helps everyone. like everyone. If you fail an exam she gives you extra points like 5 or 10 just to show up to the tutoring center and get help, and get sign by any ASAP Tutuor. Alot of Homework. Textbook is required. I taken her 5 Exams, which if you one fail. SHE will remove two. Also open notebook quiz (From the textbook).
i was kinda scared to take an online class especially math because it has never been my strongest subject but professor martinez was honestly the best. her online videos/lectures made it so much easier to grasp the lessons super glad i took her class. Definitely gonna take her math 125 class
Professor Martinez is the best math teacher. Her teaching style is amazing, I aced every quiz, test, and even the final. Her weekly quiz is the exact question from the book, and she gives you a study guide for each test and the test questions are very very similar to the books. Daily homework is online. Pay attention and study and you will pass.
Easy to understand lectures. The tests are similar to homework and group work. Answers all the questions that you have during class and office hours. 4 tests, group work, and final.
easy peasy
Professor Martinez does not teach well during physical class. Some students interrupt her during lecture, ask questions that derails the class, and taught straight from the book. The course was transferred online; she posted lecture videos, and she did great. She continued to teach straight from the book but she explained on the material.
She is super nice and is really playful. Definitely an easy A. You do use the book for in-class quizzes but they are open notes. TBH I missed a lot towards the end and still got an A but you lose like 2 extra credit opportunities.
The one thing I didn't really like about the class were the true and false questions that were planted at the beginning of each exam. There are weekly quizzes and homeworks, tests are from homework problems. Its a subject that you got to put time into learning. She's super cool and very reasonable if you miss a homework or anything, she allows redo
at first she was a great teacher then the material started getting harder and she became lazy. the class in total would have about 5 questions about the homework that we did and she just says oh i only feel like doing 2. she is not helpful and she talks over you when you have a question. exams are easy but you might as well teach yourself.
Easiest teacher I have ever had in my life!
Very laid back professor, she is very sweet and considerate. Class was fairly easy but lots of online homework and the exams are like the homework and activities she gives during class. Makes you watch and take notes on videos of each chapter which was not helpful so be prepared to learn on your own.
Math is one of my worse subjects, but Professor Martinez made sure I understood and answered all my questions. Very caring teacher and very kind. 10/10 would take another math course with them.
Take her if you like a messy, sloppy, and unorganized class. She can NEVER finish class on time, always goes over her time, is always 45min late for office hours and thinks students have to work on her time. Even after complaining about her lack of consistency, she is still the same. Get ready for a chaotic semester. Good luck!
I love Jennifer Martinez as a professor , so caring , clear instructions , answers the questions , and very sweet ! i aced all my exams , her homework videos help a lot as well . Will definitely take again . I took trig with her and loved it .
Best math professor I've ever seen. She cares a lot about her students and never made calculus hard. Gives a lot of extra credit, group work, and grades very fairly. Tests and quizzes are similar to the homework questions. The only issue was that she gave a lot of homework and the video notes did not help at all. I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommended her!
Great professor and I hate math but I enjoyed this class definitely not easy but keep up with the work and you should do good.
Professor Martinez is the best. I gave birth to my first baby mid-semester & still passed with an A. She accepts late work but you just get points taken off. Just do the video notes and copy the video, simple! You have homework 4 nights a week with a max of 12 questions. And if you needed help, just ask her during class and she explains well.
As a guy coming back to school that failed math throughout high school and my first round of college, Professor Martinez made the class enjoyable to the point where I was able to learn. Tests and homework load are fine. Professor Martinez was always available to help students with difficulties, 10/10 would take again.
great professor, and teaches really well. the homework is automatically graded with the program she uses so it was really difficult, you have to get everything right to get full marks. But for the worksheets and quizzes, she is a lot more lenient as long as you try you will do well.
She is incredibly sweet, but she gets carried away (distracted) with her calculator, or just anything in general, which is a pro and a con. She can spend 1 hour to type 1+1, or 1 hour trying to answer a student's question. She does not get straight to the point, and uses lots of filler language. If you like to read long books, you'll love her.
I loved prof martinez, she made learning enjoyable and her tests were not overly difficult. she cares deeply that everyone understands a topic, and will keep going until she is sure. she also takes sickness very seriously, which is very refreshing- she sent a student home in the middle of class bc she had a cold. 10/10, recommend her to anyone
Professor Martinez is a very caring professor and will try her best to make sure everyone understands the topic. a lot of lecture vids/notes, hw, some activities in class, but most of the time spent in class was her going over the topics and homework questions. exams are basically like the homework. very kind with grading and extra cred.
She's a very nice, sweet, and polite PERSON, however she isn't the best teacher. You have to teach yourself most of the time.
Very kind and caring professor, will take extra time to accommodate you to teach, always wants you to understand the curriculum. Overall a great professor. The only thing though is that she is not really tech savvy so there are buffers and lagging of class time. Sometimes is a little late to class.
Great teacher willing to stop and help clarify anything anyone is having trouble with and is super sweet.
She is a sweet lady who will take time to hear you out. She gets excited when people sign up for office hours, even asking her to excuse an absence. However, she does not know how to use technology, her lecture notes are dense word walls, and it doesn't seem like she knows the material.
Professor Martinez is a sweet and reasonable instructor. The class requires effort, but she's willing to help. I found unstuck ai great for study prep - it complemented the textbook well. Overall, a solid math course worth taking.
Sweet lady, but here's the trick: She isn't teaching you; she is reviewing with you. You must purchase an $80+ program, which is ONLY for homework. Notes that are due before class, class activity, up to 24 math questions for homework, and four exams. She uses a mix of her partner's video notes and hers to show how a formula is used. Best luck
