If you are not that good in math, then don't take her class. In her lecture, there are not manythings, but for the students who are willing to learn and ask her, she is ok. She talks about her life too much in class. She is not an organized person either. However she is extremely kind. Her Test is not that hard if you study pretty hard.

You're better off not going to class and just reading the book by yourself. If you do go to class, she'll read the book to you. She takes off points for not showing work (even with correct answers) and tests things like definitions. The only real teaching she does is making analogies to her family, which don't make sense.

She is very difficult and make sure you know you need a 70% on your final and midterm which is a mandatory grade to pass. She also will round your midterm on BB to motivate but not give you the actual points I didn't know till last minute.

I worked full time and was in this class. She was very negative towards me in this regard. She said multiple times I should spend more time working on the assignments as if I wasn't submitting them on time? She doesn't explain anything to you and I had my friends teach me the material because she just sends you videos with no extra help included.

Laura is a decent professor. The class is super easy and everything is open book and open notes.. so it's an easy A. The only thing that makes the class annoying is her boring "teaching" lectures and her "quests" for every module. Again, an easy A but just annoying to show up.

- Exam reviews are the exact same as the exams, do them and you can get a 100% - Super lenient about due dates - Very nice lady, super lenient and kind - Just do the work and its an A - If you take this course online, do the exams in person. She takes time to look at your work and tell you what you did wrong for when you get to retake the exam.

Professor Perez is a decent professor. I took her online, so I don't know her well, but when we talked during office hours or over email, she seemed caring. It's a basic math course: Tests, Quizzes, and Homework. The only weird addition was the quests. Also, understand this course is not an "easy A" math credit. Some units can be difficult!

This class wasn't terrible, but I've had better experiences. When I got responses from Laura, she seemed knowledgable and caring, but there were times when it would be a week without hearing back on a question I asked. The class is made up of 13 quizzes and 3 exams, and no other grades. Not the hardest class ever, but definitely requires effort.

This professor was terrible. She was extremely rude to me during Zoom calls. She also did not understand that I am a dual-enrolled student. The exams must be taken in person even though this is an online class. DO NOT RECCOMEND IT!!!!

Blud is the type of person to have a crappily put together course and then say that "my course is difficult and has a low pass rate"

I had trouble with retaking my online midterm and I asked her if I had a chance to retake it. She told me to come to her office hours and that she would proctor my exam on zoom. While I was doing my exam, another student came to her in her office in person, and suddenly started talking about me in a very negative way. Don't recommend her!

She's a very poor communicator and doesn't teach anything herself. Class grade is determined greatly by your exam scores. Quiz and exam questions are not like the homework assigned in the book. I would not recommend taking this class with this professor.

Professor Perez's MATH125 class can be challenging, but using resources like unstuck study alongside the textbook helps. Lectures can be hit-or-miss, so staying engaged and doing the homework/quests is key. Overall, a solid math course if you put in the work.

I took this class online during the Winter 2025 Semester. She never actually taught anything herself (the entire course was self-taught through WebAssign). Weekly updates were given for due dates and such, so it didn't seem like she was completely inactive. I would rate this class as a 3.5 overall, solely because it was self-taught.

DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS. Laura Perez does not teach anything and does not communicate. You can't tell how you're doing until the test. She waited until after the drop/tuition refund deadline to begin rearranging the class, including changing exam dates. I withdrew after seeing one quiz have the content double with only one day left to complete it.

I've had my comments removed for this prof a few times now. She uses artificial intelligence proctors that majorly invade technological privacy and are against WCC policy and belittles those who ask for help, passive aggressive even. Let's see if this one sticks.

She doesn't even teach since its fully online, but somehow she still doesn't meet deadlines and doesn't give you a good idea of whats on the test.
