This professor is awesome, very helpful, very fair and also a coll young down to earth teacher. Just do what your told and you shouldn't have a problem.
This is the kind of theacher that doesn't care if you learn or not, very hard and tricky exams, she is allways in a hurry and trys to cover as much material as she can even if you didn't understand. DON'T TAKE THIS CLASS WHIT HER!!
she's the best math teacher i've ever had. she loves to teach and makes everything extraclear. she does assign work but is super easy and she even helps with it as much as she can.
This is a good teacher to take this class with. She'll help you showing you shortcuts and makes it easier to understand. This was my 2nd time taking this class and she made it so much easier.
THIS TEACHER IS GREAT!!! SHE GOES BY THE BOOK AND MAKES SURE YOU UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING....HER REVIEWS ARE VITAL JUST PRACTICE THE REVIEWS AND YOU'LL BE FINE....HW IS A MUST IN THE CLASS AND PLUS YOU GET AND EXTRA 5 POINTS FOR EVERY TEST!!!DEFINITELY RECOMMEND HER
Prof. Hardy helps you and shows you shortcuts and clearly explains each and every problem. Your Job is to actually take the time to do your homework, ask questions & be Prepared for the test. The longer you complain that it's difficult, you could have been studying the material more and more, rather than complain. She's always willing to help.
This teacher is one of the best math teachers out there. Shes really help ful and all her reviews are exactly as her exams. I passed with an "A" and I strongly recommend this teacher to any students whether they're advanced or not in math.
She is a great professor. I really recommend her class. Do the homework to prepare for an exam. The exams are just like the homeworks.
Amazing professor! You will learn in her class. If you are lazy do not take her class you will be lost and fail. I took her in summer and was point on homework and attendance. I got an A. It was not easy but you can manage as long as you follow the plan. Very awesome professor she really cares for her students.
shes great!! really nice, very helpful. Really cares about your grade and its always available. Explains really good, gives reviews, BUT YOU HAVE TO DO PRACTICE HW. otherwise you'll be lost.
She is an awesome professor someone who really cares about her students. She is very fair and understandable. You have to do your HW or you will fail this class. Go to class even though your attendance does not count. Make sure you are there doe reviews. 4 tests 25 points each take final to drop the lowest. RECOMMENDED TEACHER FOR MATH.
shes a great teacher. she will help all you want. She's very clear and fair. but to pass the class you HAVE TO do homework to study. most of questions are just like hw. she gives pretty good reviews.
To the people who left messages below in response to Prof. Hardy...She is not a pushover, and most of the students in her class would refuse to ask her questions after class. I stayed after class most of the time, and she would wait to answer anyone's questions. She makes math easy, and I SUCK at math. I worked hard, and I got a B.
Julie is the best math teacher ive had in years. Its been well over 8 years since I have been in a math class and i think she explains awesome. You half to do your hw or you will fail. I learned that on the first exam. Make sure you attend class cuz if u don't u will be lost.
Straight teacher. No games. Do the work and pass the class. Wondering if anyone knows someone good for business calc?
Best math teacher in all my years of schooling.........
THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!! If you attend her lectures and study her notes YOU WILL PASS!!! Very helpful and straight to the point. She tells you exactly what you need to know for her tests. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!
ms. hardy is the most visual professor i have ever had for math. very fair professor. very down to earth. first math class in 3 years and ms. hardy doesnt expect you to remember everything from other math classes, she teaches you the past in order to make the class easier to understand. excellent teacher. ms hardy is also a middle school teacher an
The BEST math teacher ever! She doesn't teach directly from the book, instead she teaches her own way which makes it much easier to understand. I'm terrible in math and I got an A. Her lectures are clear and although the homework is not mandatory it will make a difference on the tests.
Whoooo-hooo! #1 Math Teacher....I passed with an A. Very fair. Go to class. Do your HW, and pass....
This professor is absolutely excellent! She explains everything in a very elementary style so that you could understand easily. She is available whenever you call her and is very flexible. Highly recommended!
I have to say that I am horrible in math. This is the first time I've had such a great professor here at MDC.
Prof. Hardy is the best math professor I've had. She has a very clear way of teaching. I got my first A in math since middle school. Take her and you will do fine as long as you study the reviews she gives for the tests and do some homework.
Prof. Hardy is an excellent Math teacher. She does the review sections for the basics-helps refresh. Gives 4 test and a final plus 10 points in attendance (2 free days). Look if you attend the lectures and do homework you will pass the class. I had not taken math in 10yrs and passed with an A all because of Prof. Hardy. SHE ROCKS!!!!
good teacher; fair; teaches well for all; recommended
Very clear to understand unlike many math professors; hw matches what's taught;willing to help u if u need it i would recommend
Even though the class is 3 hours long, this professor is very clear in her teachings and in her tests. The tests match the lecture and HW. Very fair! I would recommend her to your friends.
Professer Julie Hardy is good, she know how 2 teach real good if u r bad in math. Her was better then my other math professers here in MDC.
This instructor is extremely helpful. Gives her phone number if you need help with HW. Her tests are not easy; but if you study hard, you can earn good scores.
her tests are not hard! you just gotta study and do your homework, obviously! she's the bomb diggidy
I received two excellent test scores having this professor. Gives great lectures, fast, but crystal clear. Always available if u need help. A++++++++
This teacher is straight to the point, do the HW and pass, taking her again in spring for mac1105.
good teacher to have if u are bad in math i wasnt sure i could pass this class after taking it twice with bad teachers at dade
nothing bad to say. Just study and pay attention in class. doesnt try to complicate the work of trick you on tests
Her classes are on Friday nights. One day a week. So in other words, she squeezes a crapload of material once a week. Come the third week, you have a test. You can't afford to miss a single day. She's an ok professor... but I would say she's overrated on here.
to the person below, you signed up to take a class one night a week, what do u expect? any professor can give tests on the second class. this is college. not high school. go back to high school if u cant take it. this teacher is the best teacher ive had at mdc. she tries to give us shortcuts to ace the test and then u bad talk her. shame on u.
VERY CLEAR AND CONCISE PROFESSOR. RECOMMENDED TO TAKE IF YOU NEED MAC1105. TESTS ARE FAIR; NOT TOO EASY, BUT IF YOU STUDY, YOU WILL PASS
I was a little freaked out to take this class because it was only once a week and I am not good at math but Professor Hardy made this class more understandable and clear. I was able to comprehend things easily and did well on the few tests that we did take! If you're not so good at math I highly recommend her! She's a big help!
fair teacher/crystal clear/gives you her number if you need help/i thought the class would be hard but it is if you only dont do the practice problems in the book/will take next semester for mac1105
Professor Hardy teaches quick, but clear. Her class is extremely long but only because we have once a week. She lets us leave when we cover the sections needed, which is sraight. She is very fair, explains very well, sometimes too fast, but the homework matches what is taught in class. Take her if you need to take math, but do your work.
Very thorough lectures that allows for completion of homework; Tests are fair, but I always seem to make really stupid mistakes. Overall good math professor. I would take her again, but make sure I ask more questions.
At the beginning of the term, I thought that this math class was going to be hard, and I took the class based on the ratings here at Ratemyprofessor.com. This is is very fair. I don't even have to take my last quiz because I already have four high quiz grades and I can drop one. I would recommend any friend to take this class.
I aced this class! It is almost imperative that you attend class regularly and study. She gets upset when you miss class. The classis easy to pass with an A if you can keep up with the work on your own time.
Nothing bad to say (she's fair)
THIS LADY IS THE WORST MATH I HAVE EVER HAD IN MDC. SHE IS UNFAIR AND GETS OFF WHEN HER STUDENTS FAIL. SHE IS ALWAYS ENCOURAGING US TO WITHDRAWL BECAUSE HER TEST IS GOING TO BE HARD. SHE DOES NOT GIVE A REVIEW OR GRADE THE TEST FAIR. IF YOU AE REALLY GOOD IN MATH THEN TAKE HER, IF NOT PLEASE DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE I MADE.
For a 6 week class the pace of the class goes fast, if you do the work, you'll pass....if not, it might be hard. I noticed people would drop throughout this 6 week course...Most ppl were doing either really good or really bad. preety much you choose your own destiny. can't complain...she's down to earth and real
The best algebra teacher I've had. No hidden secrets. Do your work and try to get high quiz scores. In the end, you get to double your highest quize and drop your lowest. I've got 73 points right now, and all I need is 7 on the final to get a B. Peice of cake.
I'm so glad I finally have a good teacher like Prof. Hardy. Shes intersteing and i actually learned something. many peopel say that her class is hard but she isnt. her class is only hard when you do not do your hw or do not get math. i did okay. i got a 85 B. Many people get a's and im jealous.
She is not the worst teacher in the world but she is definately not the best. she should not teach in the summer at all. at first she seems easy and nice but she isnt. she does not mind failing you and will not help you. "go to the lab" is all she says. unless you are really good in math, don't take her.
This teacher made my life for the past 6 weeks alot easier than it was the last time I took college algebra at FIU. Not only does she speak in clear English, she makes it almost so easy that you don't need the book. MY OPINION: A+++++
This is the best math teacher I've ever had! She is humorous, understanding, and kind. She explains the material so clearly that it's quite difficult not to understand. I definitely recommend her.
She goes really fast. But, she does teach so you can understand. Shes always talking about the book being hard, but many people leave during class and dont care. that is why i guess some people have apparently dropped. Shes always saying that unless you do the HW you will not understand, so practice, practice, practice. She's better than most
She is fair. Make sure to do your HW, and spend hours in the lab if math isn't your strongest subject. And make sure to go to class, you get points for attendance which will help you out in the end. It is not impossible to pass her class.
Great teacher. She obviously loves math and loves to teach. The class is intense and she has to teach very fast, so be ready to take quick notes. She's always available when you need help. She actually answers text msgs or emails within minutes. Study, do your homework and ask for help when you need it. Not an easy A, but definitely achievable.
Very helpful. Makes content clear and makes sure students understand. Her grading system is extremely forgiving
Professor Hardy is the best math teacher I have ever had. I hated math and was never good at it. Study and go to class and its an easy A. I got a 96 in the class!
Professor Hardy is a great professor!!! As long as you go to class you will be able to pas with an A!! Just review the notes and you will have an assured A on your quizes! I have always loved math but was dreading college algebra and she made it a great class! TAKE HER!!!
Great teacher.
i took this class so many times and every professor sucked, julie hardy made it easy for me to pass, awesome professor, highly recommended!
Prof.Hardy's teaching quality is extremely beneficial, she teaches in the most clearest and understanding way than other Math Professors' I have ever taken. Miss Hardy is the best Professor to learn from, she's simply the BEST!!!
she gives bonuses and give reviwes for most quizzes and the final. She makes it as easy as possible and the quizzes are multiple choice and easy. she's great to take.
She's a great professor. explains everything clearly, and very helpful if needed. she also gives bonuses, i very much reccomend her.
Double your highest. Drop your lowest. Fair exams. Study for the final. It can be tricky if you don't study. Gives bonuses too
if you suck at math, you should take her. she a really helpful person.great professor!
Great teacher. If u arent so good in math take her. Im signing up for 1105 w her
Professor Hardy is very helpful, she is nice, and she really cares about her students. I receive a grade of C because I procrastinate in the class the whole semester, her test are easy if you study, she reviews before and after each test. VERY MUCH HELPFUL.. I totally recomend her..
I am great in math, BUT most people found the class fair. She doesn't grade the homework, drops your lowest quiz grade, doubles your highest quiz grade, gives you 12 points for attendance,her quizzes are multiple choice, and she tells you which questions are on the final. She is better than fair. She's great! Take her. Don't expect an easy A tho.
in order to score a decent grade you have to do extensive homework - not recommended for people who work to attend her class.
I took her for mat1033 and mac1105 and loved her. Her test are multiple choice and she doesn't check homework. However, you have to earn your A so I do recommend doing her homework so you can understand all the concepts better.
Awsome professor. Math is hard but she explains it very clearly. Do all of the assigned homework, don't miss class and you'll be fine. She knows her stuff.
Best math teacher I ever had! Not a math person and always have a hard time when taking math but she made my life so much EASIER! Explains EVERYTHING so clear and makes you understand what to do. AWESOME TEACHER!!!
Great teacher!!!! If you are bad with math she is the teacher you want! She explains everything and tells you what is going to be on the test. Everything is multiple choice. If you go to class and do the homework you'll pass with no problem!
Don't take this teacher if you are not good at math. She don't care if you pass or fail. She is very negative, always telling students to drop the class from day one. Not very motivating..
She is WONDERFUL!!! If you're the type of person who has a difficulty in math, then you will find that she is the teacher to take! She is very helpful and all her tests are MULTIPLE CHOICE! Super easy to pass, and makes the notes super clear. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone who needs help with math, she makes it hard to not understand(EASY PEASY!)
She is an amazing math teacher. She is very firm. Make sure you show up on time becuse she lectures fast but quick to the point. Her notes are completely helpful. Make sure you go to the lab. Listen to what she says and you will pass. A+
Professor Hardy is a VERY GOOD MATH TEACHER! All her notes are clear. Do the homework and go to the lab to see the answers! Don't underestimate the easiness and slack off. BIG MISTAKE! do the homework and go to class and you can get a B or even an A easily. :) Take her!
Her name is Professor HARDY. If you don't STUDY, the class is not EASY! There is no homework to cushion your grade. Just do well on the tests and aim for perfect scores early on, since it can make up for missteps in more advanced material. She explains concepts VERY clearly. Book gives aloof explanations, so listen carefully or record her lectures.
Ok so she drops the lowest and doubles your highest test grade, but lets get into details. She uses the examples straight from the book (as if you couldn't yourself), tells people they are failing out loud in front of everyone, tells you how many people "bombed" the quiz from last class (She has a negative attitude)and NO study guide
Professor Hardy is an amazing math teacher! She is so clear and makes the subject easy to understand! She has an extremely fair grading policy, and her quizzes are extremely easy if you study! Take her!
Overall this was a great class. The teacher takes away your lowest quiz grade and doubles your highest. Do not miss class though because you will start getting lost but if you always show up everything is explained barney level and you should have no problem passing
Awesome professor! Not hard at all you just have to study! The professor will not give u an A unless u work for it! It's common sense. you work for what you want! There is no free grades, this is college. Above all she's awesome and cares about your grades.
Very straight to the point professor. There are no extra points. She drops your lowest, doubles your highest quiz. People confuse her for being bossy, this is not the case. She means business. She wants good grades. She is generally concerned for our future. She wants us to get our oollege degree. Don't try to win her over, she is tough.
She knows what she's doing and she's there to teach you (in my case) intermediate algebra. He grading policy is great, 5 quizzes, drops the lowest, doubles the highest, and a final. You get 1 free absence. DON'T MISS CLASS. You will be ridiculously lost, do your homework, she assigns it to HELP you. She was fantastic!
She is very well prepared and knows exactly what she is talking about. 1. 5 quizzes, drops the lowest and doubles the highest. 2.1 final 3. You have to go to class to understand what's on the test, and her notes and explanations are phenomenal. 4. With her notes DO the homework just to practice and you'll get a good grade. tough but awesome teacher
She is one of the best math teachers I have had. She is straight to the point but also makes sure you understand everything that is going on. You have to work for your grade but that's why we are in college. Highly recommend her!
5 quiz'z, lowest grade dropped, highest grade doubled, and a final. She assignes HW just for you to study but not to turn it in. Always serious and does not let you use your notes or ANYTHING on the quiz's. go to class to try and learn even though shes super fast, and do everything else on your own because she makes u not want to ask her help
Mrs. Hardy is the best teacher ever. Had her many times before and I loved it. Not a hard class if you study and pay attention. She ves you many opportunities to pass her class. Her teaching is really clear. Reccommend her to everyone. Go to class, study, and do good on tests, and you'll be fine.
She couldn't be anymore fairer when it comes to her grading policy. People who complain about her are the ones who put no effort into improving their grades. They want the easy way out. Her class is easy if you study, which is obvious for any class. She has made me love math again!
This class in general is tough but she is a great professor. She is very clear in her notes and her grading is extremely fair. 5 quiz's with 13 questions and 25 questions on the final. HW is not mandatory but very important for learning the material. Ppl who complain are the ones who expect not do a thing in class or even study.Shes great!Recommend
This class is difficult if you do not put in the effort. THe professor is fair, there are 5 quizs she drops the low and double the high and there's a final 25 questions. Her way of teaching is different. I didnt like that she only goes over a few examples of each concept. But overall a good professor
This class is very hard,and she goes really fast. Since day one she tells us to drop the class. She doesn't care if you pass or not. She doesn't give a study guide for her quizes.If you are not good at Math, do not take her, you'll fail the class. She is knowledgeable but didn't encorage me to learn.
She taught the material WAY too fast, and she did not seem very caring or understanding in regards to those of us who could not understand it as quickly as the other students.
this class is more than fair. she lets u drop your lowest and double your highest score. the people who complain are the ones who miss class and expect her to fill u in. i sat by one guy who was absent like 4 times. dont wonder why you fail if u dont go to the lab or do hw.
A++++ XTREMELY CLEAR! Can't ask for anything better! I dropped this class twice before! I finally passed after it all and now understand for once!
This class was very demanding. You have to make sure that you study as much as you can. I sometimes made mistakes on quizzes. In the end, I learned alot. The grading policy is okay. Make sure you go to class.
Passed her class with a breeze; go to class every day; take notes; do the hw ASAP; go to the lab if you need help; she seems harsh- but shes not if you do your work
I'm glad and relieved I took her class. I wouldn't say the class was a breeze. I spent countless weekends studying. I honestly feel like I walked away with a greater understanding of math.
This is the BEST math professor I have ever had! I took it as a 12-week class this summer. She is extremely clear and fair. You HAVE TO study for this class. That is where doing your HW is important. Attendance is important too because having your notes helps you with the quizzes. Great! Would definitely recommend her to anyone!
Awesome class! By the time I had to take the final, everything was crystal clear. My grade improved the most on the final exam. I really recommend her as a professor.
Super Easy!! She is clear. she goes really slow to make sure everyone understands. But it turns kind of boring because I already knew what she was teaching from high school.
Professor Hardy is really genuine and real. She teaches well paced and gives us the opportunity to learn just enough to not overwhelm us. I wish she could be my mac1105 professor. God bless her and her new baby.
BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!!I LOVE HER.A TRULY DEDICATED PROFESSOR, EXPLAIN EVERYTHING STEP BY STEP, YOU DON'T NEED TO REVIEW IF YOU GO TO CLASS.
This professor is amazing! She speaks perfect English so you do not have language issues. She allows you to email her HW help--Sends you the answers back via email. AWESOME! A+++
No complaints here. Just make sure that you do your homework from the beginning of the class.
SHE IS BY FAR THE BEST PROFESSOR EVER! SHE EXPLAINS EVERYTHING CLEARLY. IF YOU NEED HELP WITH MATH AND WANT A PROFESSOR WHO IS WILLING TO HELP YOU, SHE IS THE YOUR BEST CHOICE!!
I'm one of those students who has taken this class 3 times, and finally I was able to pass because of this professor. The class is demanding during summer term but worth taking it with this professor if you plan on doing the HW and actually try.
She is very helpful, easy to understand. I took this class in Summer B and it was not hard if you pay attention and do your homework. If you don't do it you won't get it. Quick at emailing back. Final is optional.
Great teacher!!!!!! She can be a little stern when it comes to grading but pay attention and ask her questions. I'm terrible at math and took her for summer b end up passing with a C. If your bad in math don't do a short term unless you pay attention and ask questions. But other then that pick her awesome teacher!
This is a great professor she gives you all these tricks to remember the steps for math, I could hear her voice in my head telling me the steps. She is upfront on the first day of class and lets you know all the things you need to do to pass. people do not pass her class because they are lazy, never show up until the test, and don't do HW.
Make sure you attend class, don't miss any test's and you'll definitely pass.
One of the best math teachers. Teaches very good, clear, and organized.
Everything in the class is straightforward. Do the work and you will pass the class. Skip class and you will be lost.
Great proffessor. No complaints.
She is an absolutely amazing teacher . If you take her for half a summer be prepared to learn a lot of information in every class. She's very upfront and always lets you know where you stand in the class. She's also there to help you if you need it. Show up and take notes + do homework pass All around great teacher, she wants you to pass.
She's amazing! She will take every minute of class time to make sure we understand the criteria and then some. Students are clear where they always stand and goes beyond for her students to prep for every test. Highly recommend her to everyone who plans on taking her.
EXCELLENT PROFESSOR. VERY CLEAR AND HAS KNOWLEDGE OF ALL TOPICS TOUGHT. IF SHE TOUGHT COLLEGE ALGEBRA, I WOULD TAKE HER IN A HEARTBEAT!
Teaches well, one has to do homework and know the material in order to pass this class. Teacher is black or white no gray areas.
Professor Hardy is amazing! From the beginning, she is crystal clear of what is expected in the class. Put enough time to do the homework and do not miss class! She takes her time to explain all math problems and always stays after class if help is needed. Go by her notes and youll do great on tests. Final is open notebook. Will recommend for sur
EXCELLENT PROFESSOR. I would take her in a heart beat. Very clear from beginning to end. Make sure you do your homework! And study for tests. She will go over everything. Pay attention! Homework is a must.
Worst professor ever !!! There is 4 test during the semester and she only teach from the examples of the book and the tests are 85% of the class so you fail one then you are done with the class. She doesn't give extra credit nor extras points during the test. Don't take her , and homework she give is online but you have to do 5 chapters
Love Love Love this professor, She has a portfolio and homework check at the end helps your GPA in the class. She teaches examples from the book, this teacher knows her work and comes to class prepared making it much easier to learn the basics of math. Where were teachers like this in High school ? I would take her again forsake
I had a very pleasant experience with Prof Hardy. She is an amazing teacher. Her tests are fair, and she puts pressure on students to do well. The HW online, videos, and portfolio are a bit tedious, but department mandated, so out of her control. You have to know what you are doing in her class. Def would take again.
AWESOME TEACHER TO TAKE IF YOU DON'T LIKE MATH. A+++++++++ )
She is a great teacher to take if you have the discipline to do your homework. She literally begs students to do their homework so that they can pass. Pretty sad, in my opinion. Her lectures are super clear. Concepts in hw are tricky but easily able to get through by looking at guided examples. Tests are very fair.
She was a good teacher in the way that she explained lessons really well. She gives a lot of HW, even though I knew this was going to be hard because I took the class during summer semester. She's mean and she tells you if you are going to pass or not, straight in your face. I wont take her again.
AMAZING professor 10/10. She cares very much about all of her students passing. As far as work, passing etc., you need to go to every class to keep up with the work or else you will fail. Lots of homework also, but its good practice. As long as you do all of her work, you will pass.
Fabulous, fabulous professor! Tests are extremely fair. She gives strategies for tests and tips. She is a hard working teacher. You can trll she is passionate because she always bother us about keeping up with the online videos, HW. and worksheets. A+++
Condescending, After every question a student would ask she would reply with well you should've learned this in middle school. I teach this in middle school. Obviously we are here because we need help not somebody talking down to us and making us feel bad, and worthless questioning our self worth. No one likes to be embarrassed or humiliated.
Worst professor, Since day one she's been asking us to drop out of her class so that she may deal with less students. Too much homework for one test. Cover 5-9 sections and remember everything next week for the test. need help don't ask her, she'll talk down to you N tell you to go to the lab and ask them because they are the professors not her.
I highly recommend taking the course with her. She teaches the lessons so easily and explains every step by step, you will never have a problem understanding. You do need to do the connect math. The connect math is a lot of work but she gives you a lot of time to do it. She responds to emails quickly. I wish I could take her for other math courses.
She is a great teacher and really funny. It's an easy class to pass just do the reviews she gives before the test and you'll do good on the test.
Fantastic professor! She really strives to make you get through the course. She makes it completely clear all the way through the semester to do the Connect Math on a continuous basis. Sometimes it may come across rude to other students but she lectures clear enough to do the hw and gives quizzes that cover what she taught. Ignore the haterz.
A+ professor. Sweet, short, to the point. Tons of online Hw and worksheets, but given by the math dept. She will baby those who dont keep up, but there still is 25+ students in the class. People can say what they want but, the material is out of her control. Quizzes/Reviews/Final. I enjoy her lectures. I enjoy this class very much
Prof. Hardy is such a great professor. I am absolutely horrible at math but, i am passing her class because she gives such clear and specific examples. She'll never try to trick the students, genuinely a great professor . I'm glad I took her, just make sure you do all the connectmath hw it helps out alot.
I've never been good at Math, but professor Hardy definitely made it so much easier! Her lectures are super clear and understandable and goes over plenty of examples. You HAVE to do your ConnectMath homework, they will HELP A LOT once exams come. Plus its 15+ points to your final grade. Her tests are easy if you study and pay attention in class.
Amazing Professor. I've never been good at Math, but professor Julie Hardy definitely made it so much easier! Her lectures are super clear and understandable and go over plenty of examples. You HAVE to do your ConnectMath homework, they will HELP A LOT once exams come. Her tests are easy if you study and pay attention in class.
A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning. This can describe professor Hardy. Amazing class
Amazing professor! Loves what she does and knows what she is talking about. She teaches you easy short cuts to hard math problems. She grades test super fast and also gives you an answer key with the problems solved. I loved her humor and it helped since I took this class on a sunday morning. Take math with her, you will not regret it.
Prof. Hardy was an amazing Professor! I always hated math and I was always terrible at it. Prof. Hardy takes time for people to understand. Do your homework and you will do great! Take notes as those will help you big time on her tests! I loved her teaching style and I will take her again if she would have more classes to teach!
Lectures are focused, clearly articulated and not boring. Tests are graded on the spot and she provides an answer key with step-by-step work after every test. Prof. Hardy will provide all the tools necessary to learn and stay on track, but you MUST put in the work to pass. I would absolutely recommend her.
Listen, if you ware willing to work, you can and WILL not only pass* but receive a great grade! There is a lot of Homework but it's not the professor's fault, it's the system at MDC and the math department. She's an advocate for the students and is VERY HONEST! If you're not willing to work, don't expect a professor to pass you, WORK FOR IT!
I had had lots of professors in my life. This professor is my favorite among all my previous teachers and professors. If you take her, you are going to learn. She will help you a lot, anytime and anywhere.
She's a good professor, her lectures is clear and she keeps her word. If she tells you she will give , then she will. There is so much homework and it's time consuming but it's not her fault, as the work is part of the curriculum set by her boss. Heavy homework but good prof, cares more than others who don't really explain, & claim a job well done.
Great proffesor! Her lectures on math make you feel like you're sitting in a 6th grade class again with easy math. She makes math as easy as possible for you. you have to do online homework and worksheets both of which are due at the end of the semester. HIGHLY RECOMMEND especially if youre bad at math
This professor is a really amazing but I just suck at math :(
She is a great professor! Her lectures are amazing. She writes everything down for you to understand and the tests are exactly what she teaches in every lesson. Take her if you want to pass and learn math at the same time! Just be prepared to do homework!
No words can describe how easy she makes math. She is truly an amazing teacher. The whole class was upset when she was out for two weeks, but when she came back she made everythijng crystal clear. I got all 90-100 scores because I DID the homework when she said. Homework is mandatory. If you don't keep up your scores will be truly affected.
Excellent professor. Really I dislike that she can't teach 1105 because I had a really good experience in her class. Only with one explanation per subject you will understand everything. You only need two things to pass the class: the first one is that you must not be lazy and the second one is that you need to make all the homework on time.
Great professor, she's is very caring and wants you to pass. She teaches clearly and tell she you what to study for tests.
even though i did horrible because i was going through issues in my life. she is a great professor and will def take her again. easy class just do all the homework and study and you will pass.
I have to say that Hardy is hands down one of the best math professors at Dade, she lectures in such a clear way that makes hard subjects easy to understand, she works extremely clean and grading criteria is clear and easy to follow. You must do and keep up with the homework if you want to pass, 4 tests & final are easy if you practice and study.
Professor Hardy is straightforward and to the point. Her notes are provided for everyone, even if you show up late. She continuously reminds students to keep up with the pace of the class, showing her concern for the student to perform his or her best. If you do go to class, you will be lost. Show up and pass. Nothing else to it.
Miss Hardy is one of the best teachers at MDC. Her lectures are detailed & precise. The course consists of 4/5 test depending on variables such as time available in class. Homework is not assigned by her, so I cant count that against her. She is wonderful and caring, truly cares about the student.
Best teacher for math in my entire history of taking math. The lab helps but the lectures make the online homework must easier to complete. Study and you will pass.
Prof. Hardy is awesome. Take good notes. We take 4 test. Make sure you do the homework, it helps with your grade. Good Luck.
Professor Hardy is very clear and makes the class worth your time. I struggle in math and i was able to follow and understand for the first time on the concepts that are expected of you to gain your base knowledge for Algebra. You need to put in your work, she doesn't hand you the grade which is what you need to pass with integrity.
Third time having to take this class, and until I had Prof. Hardy, I was completely LOST in math. I now have a better understanding of how to graph lines and solve equations. High school was such a joke. I passed with a B but only because I suck in Math. The lab really helps. You have to work hard but if you put the time in, you will pass.
I have taken this class a total of four times, and I must say that this professor has been the best by a landslide. She is a great lecturer, she goes step-by-step through each problem and makes sure everyone understands prior to moving on, tests are multiple choice and your final grade replaces your lowest test grade. I HIGHLY recommend her.
Great Professor! She truly cares about her students. Hardy has a great way of teaching and catching your attention. The homework was a breeze! Overall, amazing professor!
Love love love this professor. She makes you understand the lessons taught. Step by step teaching and overall easy. Homework was a way of study.
Professor Hardy is an outsanding Math Professor who undoubtedly and genuinely cares about her students success in the class. Above all, her vocal communication and lectures are unquestionably crystal clear and easy to understand. She breaks doen problems to the "T". To add, she teaches you shortcuts to problems and demonstrates alternative methods.
She is a very good teacher, she explains all the subject clearly and insists her students to work outside the school.
Prof. Hardy is the best Math teacher Ive ever had. She is very clear and explains everything with details. I really enjoyed her lessons. If you are not very good at Math this professor will help you through. Attendance is highly important to pass.
In all honesty, I cannot say I am bored in 1033. Hardy speaks with enthusiasm and is never monotoned. I enjoy coming to class. She is down to earth and motivating.
Best math teacher ever!!! Explains so clear that you have to be lazy to fail. Homework is essential.
Whether you write them down or take pictures make sure you pay attention to the lectures and do the homework! I suck at math but Julie Hardy explains everything in simplest terms that makes everything sooooo easy. 100% would take again
One of the best math teachers I have ever had in my life. You really have to show up to each class to pass. Coming from someone who is horrible at math, her lectures are very good and help me easily understand the material. She is accessible after class and helps you with anything you need. I would take her again and I wish she taught MAC1105.
The professor is great she explains everything perfectly. However if you skip class or do not do homework you will most likely fail in her class.
Very good professor to have if it has been a while after high school. Her test are all multiple choice. Total of 4 test and a final, she replaces the final grade (if higher) for a test with a low score. Do all HW to have an easy 100 points. Took her on Saturday which was a 2 hr class.
Professor Hardy was amazing! she was so helpful and explains throughly so that we understood everything. great teaching style. alot of homework! but she makes it easy to do.
Graded on Homework leading up to 5 Exams on connect math and a cumulative final. Took her for summer2020 remote online learning (Covid). Its Math so expect homework! She made the class straight to the point, as simple as possible, teaches well and clearly! Clear deadlines! and no surprises which I like bc I don't really like math. Highly recommend.
Professor Hardy was great, as long as you do your homework and take your test. I would take her again. she was awesome.
Take take take ! You wont regret it. I took this course online and attendance was mandatory but it was all worth it.
Professor Julie Hardys class was super easy, I took this class online so all she does is lecture shows you and goes through with the problem take notes because he notes are exactly as the tests and quizzes. The homework is all due towards end of semester super easy you can get help with Photomath. Highly recommend just be on top of notes& HW
Shes a good person but she doesn't give extra credit and doesn't try to help us get a better grade. Instead she tells us to withdraw from the class if we are doing bad...
She knows her stuff and nice but a bit disorganized. If you miss her class, make sure you DO THE HOMEWORK because your test will depend on it! I took her summer class and she had 5 tests and an optional final to drop your lowest test score. Also, be VERY careful with ALEKS when answering questions, make sure you follow the format it asks for.
Professor hardy was rude to us since the start of the semester, not sure if shes better in person I took her online and all she did was wine and complain . When someone would ask a question for the first time she acted as if they asked it 10 times . She is a good teacher , but she didnt follow through with her syllabus .
Aleks is class program. 80% of grade is 5 test proctored, (final is opt.), 15% is H.W, 5% is a knowledge test (not proctored). Class Is difficult for me bc I don't put the effort for math. Ms. Hardy gives great lectures. She is a honest prof, you will pass if you put the work in. She tries to make everything as easy as possible. She is an amazing!
The professor is unprofessional, would talk about students in front of other students, either if they're not passing or they are, would also complain about a few things. 60 percent were the tests, 10 percent for homework and 20 percent for the modules, to many modules around 80-100 and done in Aleks. Even though it was done in aleks it was rushed.
