AWESOME Prof and super nice! But VERY hard class! She tried to do everything she could to help us.. exam questions directly from review and hmwk. Supposedly they are changing the course or not offering it. Go to office hours because she will explain everything to you no matter how many times you ask... overall: GREAT prof, AWFUL class

Professor Guy is a wonderful teacher! She does anything she can to help and is such a sweetheart. She makes you feel like an equal and is not self centered at all. She posts reviews for the tests and the tests are not that challenging, but the material is. I got a B because I should've studied more. I would definitely recommend her!

Professor Guy was an excellent teacher. Beware, this course is for TEACHERS, and is harder than normal geometry. I found it extremely easy, but I am very familiar with geometry. Be ready to study and work hard, but she really does care if you do. Ask questions and she'll answer them. The textbook is vital for homework. Tests and quizzes based on hw

Professor Guy is amazing. She makes trig interesting. She is super caring for her students and wants to see them pass. Tests are cumulative but truly helps by the time you have to take the final. Explains everything in detail and why things are the way they are. The quizzes every class prepare you for the test very well. Overall, an AMAZING teacher

I've had her for Trig and Precal, best math teacher I've ever had. If you do the homework and study a couple of days before the test you will get an A. Quiz every class but it's fair and good for keeping you on your toes. Her class isn't a free A, the tests are challenging but if you put effort into learning you will do well. Not a ton of HW either

On Tuesdays attendance is mandatory but Thursdays are optional and extra credit if you go. You can exempt from the final exam if you have an 93% in the class and on average on the 4 exams you take throughout the semester. You have to put in work at home but it's easy to succeed in her class. She and the LAs have tons of office and tutoring hours.

Professor Guy was wonderful in the time I had her, but you have to be aware that this class is very self-taught. The work consists of videos + notes + 3 and she doesn't lecture, though she and the LAs will always answer questions. If you don't have a great work ethic or need extra help with math, I would recommend a different professor.

The mymathlab assignments kind of suck and are tedious but otherwise the assignments are worth doing bc you'll get the same type of questions on the exams. She's very caring and easy to talk to.

The professor is helpful and motivated. The course was pretty hardcore. We submitted homework 3 times a week with no holidays. Exams are 65% of the course (cum. final is 20%). You pay for janky ProctorU and only use a whiteboard and simple calculator in Pearson, all of which I hated. I can't fully recommend this for people that struggle with math.
