Dr. Moran is the best math teacher I've ever had. She teaches in a way for everyone to understand and she spends time making sure everyone understands the material. She is hilarious and keeps the class so fun. She is extremely helpful and does good reviews before her tests. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Dr Moran is awesome. Though I got a C in the class it's not because of her teaching. I just suck at math. But she got me through this class without me failing. It was fun. She didn't go through the text word for word. She made you remember "invisible 1's" "cheese pizza's" SQUAWK SQUAWK. You could text her questions. She is awesome. Loved her.

Professor Moran is helpful during lectures and makes the content seem easy but when the tests come along, its completely different than what you studied for. She likes to give you 5-8 sections to study for but only give 5-10 questions on the test. this might seem like a good idea but it isn't when hw is worth barely any points compared to the tests

If I can give a 6/5, I would. She is an amazing teacher! She explains complex concepts in a way that simplifies them and makes them easy to understand. If you have any questions, she does her best to clarify what you are confused about. She is very accessible and very understanding. She is one of the best math teachers I ever had.

One of the worst professors ive had so far. I took her class after reading the all the good reviews. Ive never been bad at math but this class was hard. She never answered my emails and her due dates in canvas are different than MLM. She never teaches so you are learning the materials yourself. Choose any other math teacher.

The grading scale was changed for those redoing the class after the hurricane, because the homework and all quizzes essentially did not matter. All tests except final had 3 attempts, so it was alright, but she always has changing availability and it was hard to meet to go over mistakes during practice. Super nice, but tests are scary at first

Online course, self-paced but quite unresponsive in beginning of the semester. Ended class with an A, as the exams are quite simple if you have mastery in HW/concepts. I attended a few of her lectures and she is a rockstar teacher. However, I do feel she neglects her asynchronous self-paced courses a bit. Overall, decent for this specific course.

You will be by yourself, she does not try to communicate with you at all so if you're not a math expert, good luck. Final is weighted way too high and everything is not well organized. Had to drop for a traditional on campus class that literally had more resources than this online class.

The class is PASS FAIL, and Kristi won't be available randomly due to her son. The grading rubric is poor, with midterms at 45% between three tests and a final exam that counts for 40% of the grade. Quizzes and homework are worth 7%, and the syllabus is worth 1%. Her rating has dropped over 2.0 on ratemyprofessor in one semester. STAY CLEAR!!!

DO NOT TAKE HER AS YOUR PROFESSOR. Her grading is horrible, with it being 7% for assignments on Mathlab and ALMOST 45-75% on actual Proactered tests and exams. She doesn't teach you anything nor does she give any help on anything. The only practice you get for exams is a practice test that is timed and can only be used twice. Good luck.

The class was good overall but the final caused me to go from a 91% to a 78%!!!! BEWARE THE CLASS IS SELF-PACED so if you're not good at time management then I do not recommend. The video lectures are optional and I found them helpful (has a great sense of humor) but they are long. I took notes and it was probably the only reason I managed to pass.

I struggled a lot, had many issues with proctorio throughout the semester as well. I was passing, but did not do well on the exam, which is worth 40% of grade. No one got higher than a 85 on the exam. I scored above the median and still did not pass. Communicates well with students, but minimal resources are given apart from textbook.

Worst. Teacher. Ever. Won't answer emails and provides no feedback or help so u are basically on your own. If you go see her in person she dresses you down. U get 2 attempts at tests but if you do bad the first time she will not help with questions so you better get a tutor. I survived because of my tutor, no thanks to her.

I taught myself and my friend most of the concepts in the class. Her tests take up the majority of your grade, they are similar to the practice exams (except for the final). If you can reach her (after class while on Zoom or with her syllabus email sometimes) she will work with you and try to give you credit, especially on exams.

Mrs. Moran is the WORST teacher I have had. I emailed her questions about the tests, and she sent an extremely rude email accusing me of cheating on homework and reporting to me. The dean had to get involved and fix her test questions that weren't correct. Heard she's accused other students as well when they question her tests.

This professor is horrible and I do not recommend taking her class. She does not put a due date on any assignments so you have to space out the course throughout the semester on your own. She does not teach whatsoever other than short, useless videos. Her grading is heavily weighed on tests so if you do bad on one your grade will drop tremendously.

So far, Professor Moran is one of the worst math professors I ever had so far. She doesn't respond to emails. Her tests (45%) and quizzes (7%) are all proctored, including the final (40%). She doesn't put in due dates when an assignment is due. Over break, she decides to put in another test without any warning. I don't recommend her.

I am generally good at math, and this class had me struggling; the practice and test are very disconnected. The test count is 40% of the grade, and there are only 2. Final Exam is 35%. The homework and quizzes count for basically nothing, and if you get even a 70% on the test, there is no way to recover. I would recommend looking for another prof.

By far the worst Professor I have had all year. She does not respond to any messages, gives out a ton of homework that barely even counts for anything in your final grade, and gives tests that go over material from a completely different section than the one you most recently go over. If you have other options, I highly recommend choosing them.

tests have nothing to do with recent chapters, spent the whole semester learning how to do problems with a graphing calculator only to tell her class at the last minute that we aren't allowed to use them in the final and we have to handwrite everything. the final is worth 40% of the grade and we aren't allowed a decent calc, no test prep either

Super nice and always responded to my emails! This professor is very generous, she constantly pushed the due dates on the homework, quizzes, and unit tests to give students a chance to catch up. She literally makes it impossible to fail this class so when you do fail, it's on you. The final exam will make or break you so make sure to study.

Proctored quizzes/exams add up to a total of 95% of the class, homework and attendance being 4% and 1% respectively. Did not cover any homework/test style questions on Zoom, leaving you unprepared on exams. No exam practice material.

I'm not great at math, but she did help a lot with understanding the work more.
