Best Math Prof. at SCC

No Comments

Keep up with HW and her schedule. She's nice and fair. Though her tests can be hard at times, depending on which calc. She may even ask a few short answer questions on the tests. Fall behind and you'll fail. NO pressure :|

the best math teacher there is

Expectations are excessive

Has a strict policy. Do the homework and listen to her lectures and you'll do fine. Also, i cant urge enough to study the word problems, they can really hurt or save you.

took for intersession. performs examples based on the hardest and/or the most obscure problems in the text. I liked that a lot. Needed a 50% on the final to get an A lol.

Dr. Wagner is one of the best math teachers that ive ever had!!! She explains things well and is very helpful, just ask! she will help to get your grade up (i had a low c in 150, ended up with a b in the class)

Yes, she is hard but I actually find myself liking math because she makes it easier. She explains things very well. Take advantage of her office hours, it helps a lot.

really good teacher. she wants you to understand it, and is willing to help alot.

took the course in the summer. She is a bit tough as others say. But when you get past her class you are MUCH more knowledgable about the subject which helps for upper level classes. Very sweet lady and she enjoys to teach. See her in MASH tutoring center and she will help you A LOT!

IMO, best math professor at SCC. I've had a few others. Very knowledgable. Grades fairly. Do the homework and you should be fine.

Very smart, very clear. If the class seems hard, it's not because of her. Calculus is hard. period. She explains everything very well. I wish she taught all my math classes.

Math must be tough to teach and she does a great job. The only thing I didn't like were the quizzes every period. Sometimes I do not have time to study until the weekend. Anyway, she is the best I've had in AGES and you should take her!

Very clear on objectives and expectations for class. Excellent instructor. Keep up with HW, attendance, and use the tutoring center if needed. It is a challenging class but it is possible to do well.

a great teacher. explains everything clearly. Gives you the hardest examples in class, so tests and quizzes are very easy. Class is a little boring, but all math classes are boring to me. I wish i could have her for all my math clases.

Great teacher, I took her for inter-session and she managed to effectively teach us a semester long math class in 4 weeks. I recommend her to anyone, she approaches the class based on understanding, its different from other teachers but very good.

She is a very good teacher and explains things well. I would recommend taking her for any class you can.

Awesome! Daily quizzes, easy points to boost grade up. Very helpful if you need clarity.

This teacher is good, but you're expected to do your end of the work. Whenever everyone in class is struggling and your not the only one, she'll give you a break. Great teacher, extremely smart.

Challenging and goes very quickly but is fair. So smart! Gives lots of opportunites for earning extra points through homework and short quizzes.

Dr. Wagner is a very nice woman. She doesn't give much credit on the homework which was the only part I didn't like. You will have a quiz every class (only 4-5 questions), 4 exams, and the final. There is a good amount of extra credit if you do all the modules in Plato that is listed on the back of a test you take at the beginning of class.

GREAT

I thought that she was a really good teacher. She gave quizzes every class. It was her way of taking attendance. I did all of the homework and did well on the tests, but did horrible on the final and still got an A. The final was extremely hard.

totally helpful! highly recommend for everyone! work hard and you'll get A

Best math professor I have ever had! She made everything so clear and I am HORRIBLE at math! There is a lot of homework, but it's worth doing. She gives daily quizzes that make the tests a breeze! She is so kind and really wants you to succeed. I took her 4 week summer course and got a 97%! Take her, you will not regret it!

She was a nice teacher and really cared about her students. Homework after every class, but if you do it you can get an A or B easily on the weekly quiz. A teacher worth having.

Loved this class despite hating math. She made it very simple to understand, hence I recieved an A. If you need math credits and you are not the best math student take one of her classes. She makes it easy to succeed.

I was worried coming into buisness calc, but she was really helpful. She is very good at explaining the concepts. There is a ton of work, homework everynight, quiz everyday, but all the hard work pays off on test day.

Pretty much exactly how I expected this class to be. Lots of notes and quizzes and tough material. She's good at explaining it though. 2 positive things I found were you get out 30min-1hr early almost every day (and even earlier on review and test days) and her tests are pretty short. I dont want to say they're easy, but normally no more than 25 q

highly recommend for those who keen on doing homework.

NEVER cancelled class which was a huge bummer. Never gave a break with a 2 hour class and always said she would let us out early (the only times I got out early was for a test) But a good teacher overall.

Math is never an easy subject but Wagner made it SO easy and simple to understand. She is very helpful. It's essential to do your homework. It will help you do well on the quiz the next day. Recommend her!

Wagner is one of my favorite teachers here at SCC I never really liked math at all but she made it sooooo easy!! She is very clear when explaining.. Syllabus is just one page and she is always there to help you. She never misses a class and she is always on time(:!. Lets us out early most of the time overall she's an amazing smart teacher !!(:

She REALLY knows math. 1, She is articulate, and explains things well. 2, always open to questions. 3, ORGANIZED. 4, supportive, and cares about students success. She increased my understanding of math. I work slowly, but she is SO patient. There is a lot of homework, plus quizzes every class. But she gives students everything needed to succeed. =)

Best math teacher!Wagner is very smart! she reviews homework before! she actually teaches you why you do things! she knows her math and she explains the subject well the only down fall is that she will give a lot of homework and its do every class meeting and a quiz everyday but it's only 5 PTs so it will not hurt you! Take her she's awesome!!

Awesome teacher! explains concepts very well and actually teaches the material. She requires a fair amount of homework but if you take the time and do it, you will get a good grade. Super nice lady and very helpful. She makes math easier.

I hate math and i actually enjoyed this class. She is very nice and will help you with anything you don't understand. There are daily quizzes worth 5 points which forces you do you HW but they are not hard at all if you actually do the HW. We had 3 Projects, no oral, and they were the easiest points. She goes over everything that is on test

She is a really smart professor…actually knows what she's talking about. Always willing to help you and stay late. I mean it is math so the material is going to be difficult but she is super nice and will make sure you get it. Only con I would say is the homework assignments she assign take 2+ hours, but you will benefit from taking her

I have never had so much homework in my life. Class is extremely difficult, but it is very clear how much time you need to put in in order to receive the grade you want. Everything is challenging, but reasonable. Great professor.

Took N48 with her and oh my goodness I'm so grateful for her!! I took it with a different teacher last semester and failed and re took it with her and I got an A in the class! She explains it so well, if you are still a bit confused you can go up to her after class or whenever and she will help you! Makes it fun and interested to learn!

Professor Wagner is one of those teachers who likes what she's doing and because of that she really wants her students to succeed, but she doesn't make it "easy." She makes herself available if you need help and she is really understanding. If she sees that you're putting in the work, you'll get the grade you deserve.

The most homework I have ever had, although I did take the summer session (4 week) version. Regardless, she knows the material (I took her for stats) and teaches the material clearly. Grading is fair if not easy. Very willing to help. Prepared. Always quick on the grading. Projects are easy. Quiz everyday. Recommend her, if you are willing to work.

Pros: More than willing to help her students who are struggling. Fair grader. Cons: 14-16 questions on less than 90 minute exams. Expect to use all of the time you're given and manage your time wisely! Personal: I had a stressful experience. If I had more time during the exams, I probably would have been able to score higher. Finally done w/Math

You need to complete your homework to get credits from it. She is the most amazing teacher i've ever know. she doesnt even need time to come up with an answer to my question.

Homework every night. Lectures pretty quickly through materials but will stop and answer questions very thoroughly. Quizzes every day of lecture on the homework from the night before. Tests are okay if you studied. Look over notes.

She will take her time to go over tests. She goes over your grades as well. She encourages people so well. She is honest too though about people who should think about dropping, in such a nice way too. She is a really great professor. I would love to have her again. She teaches very detailed. She goes over examples. She stops for questions and answers every single one very thoroughly. She is awesome!

She is one of the most inspiring lecturers I have ever taken! Very clear lectures, understandable explanations!

Dr. Wagner is truly brilliant and yet remains incredibly approachable. Wagner's class will not be easy, but upper level math isn't easy. If you put in the time and effort that the class requires, you should be fine. Participating in lecture and attending office hours are a plus. She is an amazing educator who is truly there to help you succeed.

A lot of Curveballs on tests. Good and nice professor. The problem is it's a lot faster than most other math classes I've had at other colleges. Also, a lot of homework to do. Due twice a week. I highly recommend taking math somewhere else, if you only care about passing. If you truly love math and want to understand it go ahead and take Wagner.

This teacher is a gem. I'm not the best at math. But she explains so well. Go to her office hours for help on the homework. It is worth it. I lost my father in September of 2017. So I missed three classes. She was amazing in helping me catch up on what I missed. And I was able to take the exam we had and pass it. She is a great teacher. Take her.

Quizzes on homework almost everyday in class, and homework almost every night. The amount of work due is nowhere near unreasonable, and overall I thoroughly enjoyed the class much more than I would've expected from a math course. Really good teacher, explains things very thoroughly.

Excellent at explaining problems and very understanding

She explained things clearly and was very open about office hours and offering help. There are quizzes every day, but it helps with learning the concepts better. She lets you know what will be on every test which helps with preparing. Very understanding but deducts points from your quiz if you leave class early with no explanation.

Took her over intersession and got to say shes amazing & brilliant. Not your typical boring lecturer, she master her field like no one else does

Overall I have a positive opinion of her. She is one of the most helpful professors if you take her office hours, I noticed that people don't do as well if they don't take advantage of MASH, SI Groups, and Office Hours. Its not so bad, what you learn sticks with you. She's available to help you. Just don't go home after every class, go to her.

I have never had a more kind and understanding professor. Especially for a math course. She is incredibly compassionate and understands the difficulty of the material. The only reason you won't get an A in the class is because you aren't keeping up with the homework. You HAVE to do the homework every time throughout the whole semester.

Wanna learn Math at a higher analytic level? Professor is an angel. She will speak to you at her office hours and go over with you any questions you may. She does have many problems and quizzes but the result of her class is an array of knowledge beneficial at a 4year university. Do the work and you will get the grade.

Good teacher, I enjoyed her altough it is math so the stuff can be a bit confusing. If you spend time working with her you should be able to get a solid B to A.

Prof Wagner will not give easy As, so if that's what you're looking for, don't sign up for a class with her. With that being said, she is super knowledgeable and taking 180/180H with her will set you up for success in 185. There are frequent concept checks (pop quizzes) and a couple of solo/group presentations in 180H.

Math has never been my subject and I was nervous to sign up for this class at first. However, Professor Wagner has been the best professor, especially during the pandemic. Her class was not an easy A- meaning if you do not do the homework thoroughly to understand the material, it will be hard. But overall, the best class I have ever taken!

I took Calc 1 during intersession, and she did an amazing job preparing me for Math 185 given the short time span. But if you're not looking forward to dedicate hours to doing homework, you'll definitely fall behind in her class fast! There were 2 quizzes everyday, but she's fair on the question she presents given your exposure to the material.

I took Wagner for Calc II (Math 185) during SP2021. Each class you had a quiz, but she was a very nice grader. There is homework due daily. She is both passionate about Math and her students doing well, so there is a lot of work. She gives partial credit (if you show work), has E.C. opportunities, and curved the final. 100% would take again.

Professor Wagner helped and encouraged me to pass this class when I was trailing behind. However, I had to show her that I was willing to put in the work by always attending class, doing all the homework, and preparing for quizzes and tests. She's a fair grader and gives partial credit for work. Thank you, Professor Wagner, for the encouragement.

You do have a quiz every class however that ends up helping you grade in the end. But the time you take the final it wont affect your grade a lot. She goes over every quiz and homework and will help any questions you have. You definitely have to pay attention but she teaches super well. Ive never been good at math but passed her class with A.

There is a quiz every class. When I heard this I wanted to drop the class however I'm happy I didn't. She made me love stats, which is the last thing I expected. Having a small quiz every class kept me engaged in the material and is better then having a big test. She offers extra credit and truly wants all her students to pass, she is beyond caring

Wagner is a super great teacher. She offered office hours before and after class and a whole lot of extra credit. This is not an easy class though. There is homework and a quiz everyday. It is not a class you will breeze through. I am NOT a math person at all and I ended with over a 100% in her class. You must stay on top of it. Good class overall.

Statistics is a hard class but Professor Wagner is awesome. She is very caring and will offer you her time and extra credit to make sure you succeed. Make sure you really utilize her office hours. I am not a math person but she make it easier to understand and was very accommodating. I wouldn't have wanted any other math professor.

Dr. Wagner is one of the most brilliant minds I've ever met. She's soft-spoken but knows her stuff. She does a lot of quiz drops, curves quizzes, and EC hw so everyone gets a good grade bump. I spent a lot of time with her in office hours and she always stayed to help and made sure I was learning, not just memorizing processes. I LOVE DR. WAGNER!

She is a great teacher! If you miss class or doze off, you may struggle, but that goes for all classes. She explains things very thoroughly and has many problems on the hw to help you. Outside of class, she has MANY office hours and replies very quickly to canvas messages. She is generous with points on hw and tests as long as work is shown.

Hard class. Do NOT take it if you want the free A. There is a quiz every lecture. She has a unique way of teaching. Overall, great professor.

Had her last semester and forgot to write a review. Professor Wagner has a very fast teaching style, which may not be for some people, but was ideal for me to keep me on schedule. She constantly derived equations to explain WHY they work certain ways, which I always found super helpful. Definitely sets a strong foundation for other math courses.

One of the best math professors at SCC. I'll admit her teaching style is not for everyone, but it was perfect for me. Lectures are equally theory and practice. Examples are detailed. She does give a quiz every day, but I actually came to prefer that style as I had more control over my grade. She is also pretty generous with extra credit.
