85% of your grade are 4 tests and the 30 homework assignments are 15%. She gives little review, just tells you to do the chapter review in the back of the book. If you have a question, she gives the shortest answer and doesn't really help at all. Even going to the math center 2+ times a week didn't help me. Would never ever take her again

Very nice lady BUT not a very good teacher. She makes about 3 mistakes in one problem. Its okay to make mistakes but she makes them way too often. She goes way too fast in her lessons and she will put up a problem up in the board and while students are working on it, she just may change a sign or number. If you're not good at math, don't take her.

You can tell Professor Camilo means well, but she is all over the place. Skips steps while teaching and when you ask her to explain she says you should know that or I did that in my head but to us students, shes pulling numbers out of nowhere. Consistently makes mistakes with numbers in equations and such, making it very hard to stay focused.
