HATE THE TEACHER!!!!!!!

Very annoying, stubborn, and anti-learning. It's her way or no way. If you can help it, do NOT take this terrible teacher.

HORRIBLE! A direct quote from Her is " If you can't understand this, then your in the wrong class! I thought we were there to be taught, if we already knew it we wouldn't be there. Maybe if the students can't understand it, the fault is hers.

NIGHTMARE is a perfect word! doesnt give enough info. has other STUDENTS explain stuff, thought SHE was the teacher. tests are WAY out of class league. thinks we should already know the work, this IS a 94 class! i could go on! and on! and on!

she is awful I will never take her again!explains things that arnd important. When someone needs help she says go to the math center! she is the teacher right? She also assigns homework and doesnt even explain it until the next day. If i wanted to teach myself math I wouldnt be paying 350.

Is this class for real? I thought I was going into a math class? I sure wasted my money! Shes terrible! Stay away! You practicall take her at your own risk =(

Worst teacher at the school, lots of homework and very little teaching

I did not like her teaching style i was more confused when i left her class than when i came in!! I retook this class with a different professor and aced it! would not recommend her to anyone with math anxiety!

sucks big time do not Take her

I had such a difficult time with her. I was getting tutored for at least 8 hrs a day outside of class and I still did not pass. I had no clue where she got most of her material that she tested on. What was on the test was not what we went over in class for most of the tests. DO NOT TAKE HER IF YOU DO YOU ARE CRAZY

She is suck even though I got A-. I feel like I taught myself through the whole class. I spent at least 2 hours everyday in the Math-Center. She does not explain well. Her Test is not what she taught in the class. I work my ass off for her. I asked her for extre-credit, but she said NO such thing.

Terrible teacher...avoid this one at all costs, even if it means taking night classes! Most difficult teacher at school and I went there 2 1/2 years!!!!!! Crazy and grades ridiculously, takes points off for idiotic things.

shes very very difficult and there is really no way to get an A unless you teach yourself! becareful cuz she talks down to you like none other and she is not very helpful at explaining why she took off points. grr for her and her teaching! :(

Math 157 at SPSCC will usually not transfer to 4 year WA State college. If you want to take this class just to learn Bussiness Calc you are better off just teaching yourself and saving your tuition, or taking another teacher. Please don't take this class, you will regret it, i promise.

She is horiable!!!! I have always gotten a A in math before. She doesnt teach she just reads striaght out of the book. when asked ?'s she cant explian anything because she is no j/k stupid, the best explaination she gives is I don't know that is just what the books says.Please liston to the other commets above from other students they are all true.

Okay person, but very poor teacher. She struggled at explaining things, didn't understand the material, and would constantly get corrected by students when she was teaching the lessons. After the first week I stopped listening to her lectures and just read explanations from the book, because she was too confusing.

Incomprehensible style of teaching, treats students as if they were 2 years old. Throws in useless information during lessons, can NOT follow a lesson plan, is extremely disrespectful of her students.

hate the class with a passion. makes me want to switch majors, yes its that bad. i'll never take another class from her. i'll drive to the north pole if i have to or take it online. my friend and i are sitting in the computer lab talking about this and we decided to WARN the rest of you that want to be elementar teachers. avoid Hoagland.

Yes, I agree with everyone the class is a waste of time and $ and I need this class to be a good elementary teacher. She has no idea how to explain basic concepts and she picks our homework to death. Sit in the front row, smile, nod your head, and don't ask questions that insinuate you're disagreeing and you're grade will go up. I hate this class!

She's a really nice lady..but a horrible teacher. I took her class and left feeling stupid. I took a different math professor's class and got a B-. She is super picky about homework and whether you leave our comma's or periods and such. I won't take her again....but like I said, really sweet lady.

All I have to say is save up money for gas to drive to Tacoma or Centralia to take this class. This teacher is horrible and treats all of the students like there are back in elementary school.

So sad that I may settle for a regular AA because this teacher thinks you should have no life outside of math. So many hours of homework that I guarantee your other classes will suffer. Don't bother talking to the DEAN since he has no backbone. I actually enjoy math but this class is NUTS. Seeing so many of us suffer because of this teacher,sad.

This is the hardest class I have ever taken. 3/4 of the class have failed every test and she refuses to go over it, grade on a curve, or give extra credit. She assumes you have no life and the homework is outrageous. Her grading is inconsistent and she is not a fair teacher. I do not advise anyone to take this class..

She gave class works, math articles, reading notes, homework, and more. There were over six tests total and half the class failed them all. I would take this class elsewhere if haven't taken high math in high school. Don't expect to ace this class or even pass here.

while the class is fairly simplistic this instructors teaching style is erratic and hard to follow. on homework and tests you can get the answer right but if you dont work the problem the way she thinks it should be done you will get the answer wrong

I learned more from the homework program. Seems like she didn't know the material for the last 2 weeks if the quarter.

She seems like a nice lady but if you are not a math genius or think you may even miss one day DON'T TAKE THIS CLASS! I passed with a C as apposed to my other classes where I got A's &this class was by far more strenuous. She tries to teach too much in a little amount of time and it just doesn't work. This class will make your other classes suffer.

This is one of the worse Professors that I have ever had in my college experience. I have heard her belittle my class as if it was okay do to do and I quote "The reason why you are all here is because you fail to understand and get the concepts to move forward.". I would not recommend her to anyone that I would avoid her like the plague

She doesn't teach you what you need to know to get the grade you deserve. She assigns homework called short sets with a ton of questions you not only have to figure out on your own, but also have to write an essay on. After you get the answers wrong, she teaches you how to do your assignment after she has failed you on what she failed to teach.

Professor Hoagland had to have been one of my least favorite professors. Throughout the quarter she spoke highly of extra credit opportunities and ended up not giving any extra credit. Her grading was inconsistent between students and also graded down on simple mistakes. I would strongly recommend choosing a different professor for this course.

Although she is a nice lady, she is the most frustrating teacher I've had. She goes through the information so fast you cannot get through it without other students help. She asks questions all the time and no one can answer them. Please find another teacher for Math. You will be grateful

She overall is a very nice teacher but the way she conducts her class is ridiculous. She grades attendance and there are lots of pop quizzes. She also assigns a lot of homework at once. Would not recommend to any.

I took this class knowing I would be bored out of my mind, and I was right. The math is very easy, but the work is incredibly tedious. If you do not write out every grueling step as you go, you're not going to pass. She is a picky grader and will dock points if you do not do everything exactly as she wants it written.

She's really sweet, but I had to drop the class because it was too difficult. Math90. Really easy stuff, just needed a refresher. She wouldn't allow us to ever use a calculator. Prime numbers, everything like that, all by hand math. Lots of homework, she goes really quickly, and she doesn't explain that well

She was horrible. I had a lot of things going on at home but I would check in with her to tell her when I was going to be absent. (She gives out quizzes on thursdays for over the weekend) I would message her asking for the quiz PDF, and she would set me up to fail by waiting till the very last minute to give it to me. Shes very picky when grading.

I would NOT take this class again. I personally like more one on one talks with my teacher but i didnt get that and when i did (the few times) i was uncomfortable. The pace was set to over drive and so much was jam packed in it made it so difficult to take your time with things. If you take her, you better spend everyday in the math center.

Math 107 feels like a useless course. Hoagland herself is very abrasive and will often contradict herself regarding her own classroom procedures. Material isn't difficult at all but she will take points off for ridiculous reasons. She was not understanding of students who had other responsibilities like work or kids. Working with her is frustrating

Math 107 is honestly not worth it in my opinion. I left knowing nothing I didn't already know, just explained in a different way. Hoagland grades very strictly, even on the littlest things. Going to class felt like a chore, not a learning experience. Would not recommend if you're looking for a nice, laid-back professor.
