She told us to keep our eyes on our desks in exams and to cover our tests so neighbors can't cheat. If we looked around we were cheating. Had to show ID. Some classes are so big teacher don't know you. She WALKED UP AND DOWN RIGHT NEXT TO THE DESKS during tests in SMALL CLASS. Expects software teach for her. Low trust is DEMORALIZING=low grade

If you are motivated enough to attend an evening course, then you will enjoy this class. She is a genuine person who is willing to accomodate the students' needs. If you have a positive attitude, you will succeed!

The final exam is extremely fair. She does her best to show the students how to excel in calculus. For the people who complain about it being like 4th grade, they should just grow up and enjoy the fact each instructor has a different approach. Sinclair know's what's going on and she does her job well.

The teacher was very clear in her lectures and made sure everyone who cared understood. Tests were fair. This is an evening class and had a number of whiners. I got a "B+" and feel well prepared to transfer to UCLA. GOOD TEACHER.

My favorite math teacher. VERY FAIR grading system. Flexible grading system where you can choose what assignments you want to attempt. Homework is optional but a great grade booster if you attempt it. I found the midterms to be harder than the Final(surprisingly easy). Got a B, I would recommend. She's very nice, easy to talk to and knows her stuff

She's great. She does make you work though. The homework system is a bit elaborate, but good for someone like me who tends to slack off until the midterm. She gives you the tools you need to learn it, even if you're not naturally great at math. Very easy to talk to, never impatient or condescending.

This is an evening class and I need this to transfer this year. I took my prior courses at DA. She is the best math teacher I have ever had. She is very clear and I finally understood things I should have learned in Precalc. If you do you homework and ask her questions you do well on her exams.

I like all the classtime we spend working on problems. We have reading assignments that are due before class starts. They help us prepare for the classwork that we do.

An excellent teacher, who wants her students to learn. I see a lot of negative comments on this site. In our class the good students are all quite satisfied and learning a lot, but there are some poor students who aren't getting it. They probably give her bad reviews. My only negative comment is that she gives too much homework.

A very nice math teacher. Thinking a lot to help students. And the class is relaxing. Though the homework is heavy, still very helpful, especially to the exams.

a really good teacher, explains very clearly. gives homework every week so consistent work is required. dont take if you're looking for an effortless A, but definitely take her if you want to learn something. doesnt really use the textbook, besides the notes she gives during class are enough.

She is so nice and very helpful. Her quizzes and midterms are not hard at all, but final exam is quite difficult when compare to the midterm. She is willing help students to get a better grade. And she gives helpful study guide. Recommend her!

She is a really good teacher, she wants to help you to learn more. so she has many hw need to turn in, usually half of the exercise in the textbook. quiz on every friday.final not very difficult if you work hard

I had Mrs. Sinclair for all my calculus classes so far(1A-C), she was amazing what more could you want? She was extremely helpful a relatively lenient grader as long as you put in effort she will reward you. She also is always ready to help if you seek it. Great class room experience. Much better than the other Math professors I've heard of at FH.

Such a sweet lady! She is clear in explanations, she is EXTREMELY helpful if you dont understand. She give a lot of worksheets that are useful for studying/learning. She allows you to gain points back on ur midterms. I recommend her! She convinced other teachers to allow us to have a larger cheat-sheet for the final. great teacher and great lady!

She is a very sweet teacher and very helpful. She might not be clear at first but will help you until you understand the material.

She wants us to be prepared for calculus. She collects and grades homework twice each week. Exams are reasonable. If you do your homework and come to class, you'll learn what you need to.

Very helpful instructor. We had a quiz each week. Homework was checked off but not graded. I turned it in every time and got two extra credit points towards my grade. We spent about half the class time working on problems in groups. That helped me learn a lot.

I see a lot of negative comments on this site. I think those must be from students who didn't do their homework and want to blame someone for their poor grade. She wanted us to practice critical thinking. So instead of showing us a problem and then having us do one, she had us work on problems in groups and then she went over the hardest parts.

This class was very chill. No online homework. That was great! She lectured on some things. We worked in groups on some things. The class wasn't easy, but it was fun to go to.

You need to study a lot and also study by yourself however she is very very good teacher, she helped me every time I went to her extra classes and I certainly learned a lot from her, recommend her if you like math and also if you are a hard worker =)

Need to study a lot and also study by yourself however she is very very good teacher, she helped me every time I went to her extra classes and I certainly learned a lot from her, recommend her if you like math and also if you are a hard worker =)

Jennifer really wants you to understand the materials. She gives a lot of handouts. Quiz every week but the handouts really helped! It's helpful to read the text beforehand so when you go to the class you can understand the materials better. Never hesitate to ask when you are confused!!! Jennifer is really nice and she's willing to help!

I took this class back in Spring of 2013. Her tests and quizzes are pretty difficult, however, doing the handouts in class, reading the textbook before coming to class, and doing MOST of the homework that is due that day will help. She's also willing to meet to help clarify if you are having difficulty. Definitely recommend this professor.

Jennifer is a conscientious instructor, and is eager to give assistance outside of class. She is very clear what she expects you to know on quizzes, and you will generally do well if you come prepared.

After many attempts of Math 1C at Foothill, I was able to pass after having her as a professor. Very mellow and easy to follow, step by step lectures that fully evaluated problem solving using clear language and written methods. (Using <x,y,z> vectors - other professors had not used this)... I left the class with a good understand and interest.

Math isn't easy, but she tries really hard to explain it clearly. Sometimes, her teaching techniques are not the best however. Very heavily worksheet and hw based, figuring out things yourself. Quizzes are basically altered hw questions, tries to make midterms as fair as possible and provide study materials. Up to student to put in effort

Prof. Sinclair is an amazing teacher. Prior to taking Integral Calculus with her, I failed the class with another instructor. I was very frustrated with the subject and wasn't too excited to take the class again. I'm glad that I took Prof. Sinclair's class because she knows how to adjust to the class and teach accordingly. Definitely recommend her!

Her tests are easy as long as you do the past paper, but the homework format is quite strict. However, I will recommend her, if you want a good grade.

Best teacher at Foothill. She has a good personality, I never saw her angry. You can talk with her about anything. And the tests are similar to sample exams. I've taken several teachers here, but no one is better than her. Calculus is not easy, but she really minimizes the difficulty! go take her.

Professor Sinclair is one of the most helpful and caring teachers I've ever had. She really wants you to LEARN the material and as long as you work hard to LEARN it, she will reward you :] Also she is quite funny and definitely loves what she does, one of the best teachers I've ever had.

Mrs. Sinclair is the best math teacher I have ever had. She's patient and helpful and makes learning calculus painless.

This teacher has legitimately been the most inspiring math professor I've ever had. If you're willing to take the time to get to know her, she will ALWAYS be there and I can honestly say that I will definitely miss having her as my math professor when I transfer. I would DEFINITELY take this class if you're willing to participate and be a part.

Very patient and helpful. She helps me get into Columbia.

she is awesome!

I took some classes from this professor. She is a very nice person and always is ready to help you. But you MUST read test book BEFORE class since during the lectures she just comments the hardest points of the text. She gives good grade for exams and you can use a list of notes which you did.

Very hard class but she is there to help you the whole time. You MUST self study to do well in her class. She is one of the best math teachers I have had.

Had one hell of a class with professor Sinclair! By far one of the best math professors at foothill! She is very patient, is willing to help, and is also very straight forward on tests. Would definitely recommend her class.

She is the best math teachers I have ever met at foothill. Tests, Mid terms, and final are super easy. No surprise. She tests what she teaches during classes. Lectures are clear. Take her if you want an A or even an A+. People who failed her class should consider their math level. Only absent-minded people will get lower a B in her class I swear

Her class is quiet difficult, but if you work hard you will do fine. She always helps if you go to her office hours. She usually stays way past her office hours if she sees more students who need help. She has 3 midterms and 1 final. The final is insane and the midterms range from medium easy to hard. Make sure you attend class.

Forget academia, She's one of the nicest human beings i've come across in my life. As a instructor, he exams are not easy, nor hard. very fair and motivate you to study and learn. She also tells you what you should know and will go out of her way to help you.

Lots of work, but clearly organized. Module quizzes are a must for checking understanding.

You have to work for it, but she's there to help if you have questions. You must read the book ahead of time or you won't be able to do much with the daily quizzes (group). Lecture is focused on the hardest parts. Don't take her if you want her to introduce you to each new idea from the book.

I took her 10 unit accelerated algebra class back in the winter of 2015. She is by far the best math teacher I have ever had, I learned so much. Professor Sinclair takes the time to engage with her students and is open, helpful and patient when you come to her for help. I highly recommend anyone take her class!

Jennifer is not only a kind person that really cares about her students, she understands that some students struggle with math and she will go out of her way to help you. She is a one of a kind professor and Foothill is lucky to have someone so caring.

To me, she was funny, fashionable, and very cheerful. I am a shy person but I can open my heart for her I was excited to go to her classes because she makes me to be positive and bright. She may be a little bit an emotional person as a roller coster but usually asked me for help. Thank you!

This Was The best professor I have ever taken a class with!!!

She wants you to pass and will be there for any help you need in order to pass, but you have to teach yourself the material. You use an online lecture system where you learn the material on your own at home and then come to class and do assignments based on what you learned. If you put in the effort you'll pass with an A no problem.

SInclair is a really nice lady, Genuinely cares about students and is open to adjusting the class for students.

I'd say she's a solid choice for a stats professor. I struggled so much in her class without any help, but her assignments, especially the final review, is structured very similarly to the final. And she also organized us with our classmates in study groups before the final. Plus, it was a great introduction to using Excel for the first time.

Very lovely, Helped me a lot. Had office hours every day for about 12 hours (had 5 designated tutors for a 40 people class). This was my 3rd class with her. Anyone should take it. Explains easily and connects to real world. Even a 5 year old will understand what she says.

Professor Sinclair really wants to help you pass this course. I took this course to fulfill a prerequisite and went into it knowing that Math isnt my best subject so it would take a lot of focus. As long as you complete all of the homework you are sure to do well. She wasnt always available for extra help and clarification.

Easily my favorite math professor to date and one of the top teachers on Foothills faculty, Mrs. Sinclair genuinely cares. She does an excellent job of building up from the rudimentary concepts to the more difficult ones and makes sure you understand not only the what? but more importantly the why? of the lessons she lessons she teaches.

Super clear on grading and gave good feedback, slow grader though. For Math10 it is an online textbook with chapter quizzes (they are very easy). There are also a few discussions and 8 excel labs (she has how-to videos so they are easy). I put in about 2-5 hours/week (no required meeting). If you do the work you'll get an A.

Coming back to school I was always fearful of math, but this Professor took those worries away. She is always willing to help and encouraged me to go to the stem center/ tutor for additional help. At times the professor would be there and also continue to help me. She even encouraged me to take Statistics even though I didn't necessarily need it.

Professor Sinclair is the best math professor that I have ever had in college. She is quick to respond to emails. She cares about her students, opened up a forum to talk about how everyone is feeling during these challenging times. Her videos are very informative and I would definitely take her class again.

Wanted to get my math credit ahead of time before my senior year of high school. She was super caring and didn't penalize some late work. Labs had to be turned in on time but everything else can done on your own. Since I didn't have excel she accepted google sheets. Has office hours for anyone to drop pin which I really appreciated.

Professor Sinclair is super sweet and caring. She has really informative and thorough videos explaining how to do labs and she really takes the time to make sure her students understand what she's teaching. She also takes the extra time to learn how her students learn best which is really great! Definitely recommend her :)

Professor Sinclair is amazing and cares a lot about her students. A lot of the work is module driven so you will need to manage your time to make sure that your hwk and labs don't add up. Professor Sinclair is very understanding with assignments and late deadlines so definitely reach out if you need it. She explains things clearly in the lectures.

She is a caring teacher who is willing to spend extra time. Her grading system is pretty confusing though - it is impossible to get an A without doing extra credit. Make sure you understand what is required from the beginning to avoid disappointing end term surprises. This was my worst grade at Foothill, even though I scored 93% on required work

Professor Sinclair genuinely wants you to succeed and gives so many opportunities to do so. She provides multiple ways to learn (videos, textbook, lecture), and trusts that you will choose what works for you. The final is collaborative and if you keep up, it isn't super difficult. Also she gives timely feedback and deadlines are pretty flexible.

It's math, it's a difficult class. I approached her and told her I was struggling and she took an hour out of her day every week to tutor me. There is no better professor you can have to navigate math.

I dont know where to start. Its quite unfortunate that their isn't a better scale to determine which professor fits your learning style. However, this professor the BEST professors I've ever had and I'll tell you why - shes relates the material to everyday life, is cost effective for you, helps you learn more about life and your own goals.

Professor Sinclairs class was overall a very good experience. It moves quickly with several group projects and hours of video lectures every week but shes a very good, understanding teacher who is quite good at setting students up for success in her class. She offered several extra credit opportunities as well.

I was scared about statistics but she made Computational statistics easy and fun. She is way too organized and too smart. If you want to pass just follow her instructions!

Teaching felt almost like a flipped classroom - would have packets/readings that weren't "due" at every class time, but were heavily encouraged. Most of the learning was through the textbooks, with lectures in class being more review and less teaching. Very caring and happy to help students, but I didn't love the holistic teaching style as much.

She grades your overall comprehension of the subject. If she can see that you have proven in some manner that you understand the content then she will pass you. Not strict on due dates. As long as you follow through with the textbook-guided videos, stay in touch with her, and put in the effort then you will pass this class

Professor Sinclair is another fantastic instructor at Foothill. I was terrified about stats! Prof. Sinclair made those worries go away! She is very clear on her expectations and is very helpful when you just ask for help. She gives you tools that will helpfully succeed! I LOVE STATS NOW! I wish she were teaching in all my other classes too.

Uses holistic grading, allowing students to reflect on their progress in the class. Made me think about math class in a way I hadn't before! It was fully online and asynchronous, so we read the book to teach ourselves, but she answered all of my questions really well.

Professor Sinclar was super kind and helpful! I could not have gotten the grade I did in stats if it was not for her Great feedback and office hours help. She made me truly understand the content and manage the class well. Using Excel was even a little fun to use. Did not like the group work, but it was minimum. Suggest redoing any labs if needed.

Professor Sinclair's class was relatively laidback in the homework she assigned. The lectures were a little disorganized and I had to self teach myself a lot of material through Khan Academy as the textbook isn't the best. You will have to self teach with the provided resources but if that's not an issue, she is honestly pretty good.

Professor Sinclair is super helpful and makes stats engaging. Lots of quizzes and labs, but she's understanding and offers extra credit. Using Unstuckstudy alongside the textbook really helped me grasp the concepts. Overall, a rewarding yet manageable class.

Sinclair is a very fair grader and extremely enthusiastic about the material. She will first assign homework and textbook reading. The next class, she will go through some questions from the homework and will answer questions. Once a week, there is a learning check which is what determines your grade.

she has a lot of eassy homework, and always have quizs. but she is a very caring teacher.

She is very helpful to answer all the questions. She taught the lectures by heart. So, I have a very good experience in this class.

Her Stats class is very easy if you check Canvas regularly and do the work. She's unorganized and gives SO MANY worksheets (you don't have to do them). She spends 2 hours explaining how to make a doc into a PDF. If u get a 75% on all assignments you have an A in the class. The final won't impact your grade. U will not learn anything abt statistics.

Sinclair is an outstanding statistics instructor. Her lectures are clear, well-structured. Her teaching alone was enough for me to understand everything. As a younger student, I really appreciated how kind and supportive she was&#8212;she treated me with the same respect and encouragement as everyone else. Her class was both challenging and enjoyable.

As long as you do the homework (which is graded on completion and is worth a small percentage of the grade) you will succeed in this class! Her test are set up so it's easy to succeed, as long as you keep up with activities and ask questions. She is super caring too and very accommodating :) She made calculus a lot less intimidating for me.

jennifer was the best teacher ive had so far like if she taught everything else id take all her classes. shes so caring and funny and she will answer all your questions so quick if u email or send her a msg. she gives out midterm/final practice tests thats so similar to the actual ones. take her class, i got A and im bad at math that says a lot

Let me start out with - I took a Statistics class before and dropped it because the math wasn't mathin'. Jennifer's class was well structured and I appreciated her being there for questions, no matter how silly they seemed. The grading is fair! If you have the chance and like a lot of lecture, explaining exactly how to do things, take her class :)

Professor Sinclair took over for another professor & the change was tricky for everyone. The class was very homework-heavy which is what scared many people off. Those of us who stuck through it were rewarded - she's very understanding & helpful, and even matched our final exam scores to any exams we under-performed in. She just wanted us to learn!

You're the one teacher that inspired me to reach my dreams and become a dental hygienist! Thank you

replaced rolando & the change was difficult. i think if i'd started w/ her from the get-go I would've succeeded, but she made us cram for our first exam a wk after she replaced rolando. had other stuff going on so ultimately i withdrew (got the W removed from transcript), but she does care and was super sweet, just didn't handle the swap well.

Clearly passionate about the topic, very refreshing.
