shes an airhead but the class is easy
She is not an air head, she is great if you apply yourself and is fair.
Nice lady.Brooklyn attitude.As long as you go to class and pay attention and do you homework, you should have no problems. The students at the beginning that thought the class was to easy to do homework,were the first to fail.
Prof. Kass is a credit to her profesion. At oustanding math teacher.
Professor Kass is GREAT. I am in her office now and she helps you with aLL problems..in math and in life. She makes math FUN
I love her New York accient. She is willing to help those who want to help themselves. I hope I have her next semester.
nice lady, has an attiude if you a smart ass, if you apply urself its a peace of cake but if your looking for an easy A i dnt recommend her she will helfp you if you are willing to learn
She was very helpful, she is very nice lady. Do your homework it will help you to do fine on the tests.
She is a great teacher and is very helpful. She gives you chances, and that is good when you have alot of work for alot of other classes to do, I love her.
she is the best math teacher i have ever had.
Very, very good math teacher!!!! Prof. Kass is the best!! Take her she will make your life in math a breeze.
she is very nice and helps you when you need it..you do have to work..may seem like an easy class but it gets harder as it progresses..so keep up with it.
wonderful. THE BEST EVER. I could not have passed if it were not for this Professor. She stays late to help you if you are stressed, she is there with donuts. She is funny as well.
She was the worst teacher i ever had in my entire life. she goes through stuff wayyyyy to fast and she seems to not care weather you understand or not ---- DONT GET HER CLASS
NICE!!!!!! she is the best teacher i ever had in BCC , she is very cool and sweet take her and enjoy the class
Not only is she a great professor who explains everything she genuinely cares that you get it.A rare breed at this college as the good ones are far and few between here.She is easy to understand,fair and she'll work with you!
Found her to be very helpful and patient. She is down to earth and shows genuine concern for your progress...a complete opposite from the typically arrogant type of math teacher! A great asset to BCC!
very good teacher, easy to understand
Prof. Kass is COOL. She has a lot of family illness but she is always there for you with a smile. Bergen should have her teach all the math classes or train others to teach like her. FUN FUN FUN
she is a great teacher. She explians everything and is a caring person. Two words for everyone TAKE HER!
I do not recommend this teacher at all. She was always late to my class. And always seemed to have an attitude towards her students. Also she couldn't explain the math right either. DON't TAKE HER CLASS!!!
she is the worst teacher ever she could care less about u and ur grades dont take her she all about rushing and not careing at alll if u need help take Caillouit instead she is amazin and know s how ta teach
she is a great teacher. very understandable and she makes sure u understand the material, she takes her time..take her!!
she is the worst teacher i have ever had in my entire life she carelessly rushes through the work and if u ask a question she makes you feel stupid if u dont understand if u do not want to fail this class then dont take her shes prob. the worst teacher in bergen DONT TAKE HER!!!!!!
worst math teacher every she cant teach math at all DONT TAKE HER!!!!

professor kass is the best professor i have had in college. she wants us to pass so she just explains things in a way which makes it easy to understand even though it may be complicated. she was always there for extra help and the fact that she cares and wants her students pass, shows that she is a good teacher
THE BEST!!!
Buck wut that other person said. she is awesome and she explains things so clearly. shes very very nice, very patient, and its true, she wants every student to pass. shes so nice.. i highly recommend her. peachk out..
THE BEST TEACHER !! she explains everything and truly wants everyone to pass!! THE BEST teacher take her seriously you wont regret it. Im not great at math but she makes it easy to understad
AMAZING!
SOOOOOOOOO GREAT.. WOW, I think I am liking math. Professor Kass RULES..... She is an ADULT who actually listens to her students..NOT like some that BLAH< BLAH< BLAH. AND she is so COOL.. You just don't want to piss her off...
let it be known professor kass is THE best professor in the bergenn !! I hate math i mean HATE and she made me like it she explains thing and has ways to make you remember she care about her students; on the final she makes sure you pass ; over all two thumbs up! shes the best; you will never have a better math teacher cuz shes the over all BEST! t
BEST of the BEST; i dont understand math and she makes it soo easy that its impossible to not understand ; caring teacher the bestt simply the best
Kass is so wonderful. She will always be there for you to help you and praise you. She does not tolerate silliness. i HATED math but now i think i can be good at it. She makes you feel that you are special and can achieve. xoxoxox to her
Nothing bad to say. Kass is the one and only. Just don't be a smart ass or she'll cut you down with her eyes.
shes really nice and understanding....shes always late to class though for 20minutes...she cool...a lot of hoework and i miean a lot of homework....but its worth it because for sure you will pass her class....
wHAT DO YOU MEAN late. aHE IS ALWAYS ON TIME AND never TAKES A DAY OFF... dONB'T EXPECT her to be absent. She's NOT. bUT SHE IS SO MUCH FUN and really cares and makes you feelspecial... She may be an older teacher but she looks cute and is COOL. Sometimes she brings donuts for us NUTS. GIVES us fuel to learn. wish she was the president.
she is very clear, if you are like me and don't like math... she is the right proffesor for you. i'll recomend her to anyone
Wonderfu. I like her alot. She is so helpful to EVERYONE. Not just the ones that suck up to her. She LISTENS to you..some just talk..blah blah and don't hear what YOU need. not SO WITH THIS pROF. NONE BETTER
Kass is the best. You get retests, so it's almost impossible to mess this class up. Take it!
She is late to every class, 15 minutes sometimes. Then she penializes students who arrive late after her; very unprofessional. When we were supposed to have a test, she came in 20 minutes late, and we weren't allowed to have extra time. Don't take her. Take a professor, that cares about teaching.
Get rid of the rest and hire 100 more Kass professors. Funny, explains everything well. Listens to you and actally cares what you say. now have her in 032.
FUN.. WONDERFUL... and super helpful and patient. THE BEST
I FAILED. BUT I'm taking her again. She is THE BEST and it was my fault for filing. i NEED TO DO MORE HOMEWORK. I willdo more next semester. I would recommend her to anyone who hates math because she makes it fun and makes you feel SPECIAL.
Prof. Kass is one of the nicest teachers i've ever had. I had her in the summer session and she gave us so many chances to fix our mistakes. She does disappear during class but she is a great teacher. havent finished the class yet but if i fail id sign up for her class again.
She is so patient and takes away your anxiety. A special person and instructor
I took her basic math class and she explain everything in more than just one way this way it was easy to understand. i loved her, she is a sweet heart and will make time to help you with whatever you need.
I would first like to say thank you to Pro Kass. Second any one who could put a bad comment about this professor either failed and must not or should not take anymore classes. You dont belong in college.She is the best math teacher i have ever met.if she was late she was probably helping a student in another class. Because that is who she is.
If anyone has had the pleasure of having Professor Kass then you are the lucky ones. Who would ever think that I would actually look forward to MATH. BERGEN you are so LUCKy to have a professor that teaches math with such fun and smiles. No more math anxiety. Still not doing well BUT no more anxiety so thats a start
Prof Kass was very helpful and did a lot to help everyone learn the concepts. There is mandatory homework, a weekly quiz, and at least 5 tests in addition to the final. I finished with an A. If you pay attention in class and do the work, then you should do fine.
Took her course during the summer (I), interesting...it flew right by me! She is awesome, fairly patient, hip (brought munchkins some 3 times!) and keeps everything straight to the point. Mandatory homework,4 tests then the final exam, she tells u pretty much whats there but she doesnt play around! Got a C, summer algebra is depressing. =)
WORST teacher I've ever had.Overloads on homework and you must learn to use WEBCT inorder to pass the class.I took her so i can go to the actualy class and she turns the class into a hybrid class.everything was done online, which i wasnt used to.I dont recommend her if you don't like studying independantly and having to do all your work online.
ok i so i am not good at math i will admit but come on! i don't NEED math for my major. seriously. so she tells you that the class will be ok and you will do find as along as you do the work. PSH! i spent more time on this math class (that isn't trans) then i have with all of my math classes combined through hs. and will still probably fail.
Professor Kass. When I had her for math for the first time when I took Basic Math She was very helpful in guiding me through the heavy work load in class, and she saw me through the my challenges in math up until the very end when I was stuck.
She was the biggest pain i have ever had this semester. She would always show up 20 late to class and as soon as she walked in she would take another 20 mins to write our agenda on the board. By the time she even gets a chance to start teaching there would be some random creepy teacher that comes in and starts flirting with her. She speeds through
She is a horrible teacher. No one in my class likes her. She shows up to class late all the time and takes forever just to get started. She also flirts with some other creepy teacher while teaching. I DO NOT recommend her she should be fired!!!
She is a horrible teacher. Very confusing, and overloads on homework, rushes through everything. I DO NOT recommend her she should be fired!
You should be ashamed of yourself...I am in this class and it is untrue that she is disliked. Yiou must be a failing student or an idiot to say that this wonderful person is confusing. If she is late it is because she bring you donuts to eat so esrly in the morn. She is the BEST Professor that I ever had at Bergen. You are a JERK
I passed.. I am so happy. I worked so hard and i passed. you can not pass this course if you don't do all the homeworks. The computer proram is the BEST because it explain id yiu are wrong. Professor is wonderful and but do be truthful and sincere. She listens and brings donuts with magic. It must be magic cause I passed
Prof. is one in a million. I just thought she was cool and clear and really wanted all of us to succeed. There were some real jerks in the class that did nothing and expected to pass. They didn't and was mad at the Prof. I liked the computer program. If yoiu use it, you can really improve your score. Don't take Prof if you dont want to do HW o
Its the summer and that alone is depressing BUT..this class is flying by. The Prof knows her stuff and guides you through the work. I actually think I'm starting to like math...OMG...She is very caring and wants evryne to pass. A cool person
you dont have tutor you dont pass her class, tons of homework you are almost on your own terrible teacher
Just took her for Summer 1 and I have to say that she really didn't teach at all. Everything was online which was fine but I don't think she realized that summer courses are not as long as a regular semester. Very unorganized and sits in front of the computer during class typing away. Make sure you have a tutor before attending her class.
I just LOVE to read the stupidity of some who rate the professors. How can anyone say that the course is TOTALLY on line. This is CRAZY as there was nothing taughtonline.wonderful lectures with the HW on line and exams that you were able to retake... The Professor covers the whole coursae in such a short time.I just loved her.The best.thank you
This Professor sucks,she does not teach at all,she will show you one problem on the board and then expect you to know the rest.If you ask for help,she will tell you to go to the tutoring center. You are on your own to learn the material. Horrible! I wouldn't recommend her.
Professor only taught you one problem and you were on your own. She was so disorganized and never had your grades available. At the end of the semester, she tried to act like the good guy and wanted students to retake test while she was teaching new lesson. I do not recommend her at all. I wasted my time and money. What a shame!!!
Waste of my time and money. I kept going thinking it would get better but didn't. If you get this professor just ask for your money back and walk away.
she is horrible!!! even if you go to the tutoring center it doesn't help with her class that much. she doesn't teach and doesn't like to repeat herself. if you are not good in math stay away. she sets you up to fail
She does put us on the computer once a week.
Great and wonderful and caring and funny. She is the best
Even though I failed her class, it WAS my fault i never went to retake her tests or go to the tutoring center.She SIMPLIFIES everything. Almost like you're a child and believe me I am NOT good at math so that helped but if you don't like studying and doing math problems for homework then don't take her. but for me she was great.
DONT DO IT!!!! trust me please, athough verry nice lady she DOES NOT TEACh. she goes over each problem once MAYBE twice and moves on to the next lesson. expects everyone to go to toutoring center if they didnt learn in class.
She does not seem to put muchg of emphasis on getting over the homework or check the understand as a group. Also, she makee everyone to rush through the pretest and homework so students can take the postest too soon and to just make students to get lower scores on MML test and fail the Math 011 for jut for her not unable to explain the methods clea
She makes students to rush through to get these homework and pretest thoroughly completed so shat students can posttest too soon. She also does not explain new concepts and method clearly. She rushes everyone on MMM quiz and leaves me behind.
Doesn't know how to teach. You have to find another way to learn so you can pass the tests. I had to go to Math walk in to learn it. Waste of my time. She's always late to class and expects you to be on time. Grades unfairly.
I just loved Professor Kass. She is fair and helpful but you must attend class as topics come quickly. She allows you to take tests on the computer or a written test...whichever you like better. She will allow you to retest one exam. Her quizzes are on line and you have a few days to complete the quiz. WONDERFUL.A MUST
A wonderful teacher..Very fair and helpful. This is math ...you need to do the work and ask questions. Take her
I was hoping to get more out of this but I didn't. I went to class and sat on a computer. She did no teaching whatsoever, her aid did the teaching . Everything was rushed and if you fell behind it was hard to get back on track. Especially since you don't have a teachr teaching.
Very attentive, excellent teacher.....
Came to class to sit on a computer, when i could be doing that at home. She did no teaching maybe once. Waste of my time in this class. If you needed help you had to go to the math hub instead of going to her.
it's an easy class...she doesn't do much teaching, only a couple times. Sitting in the math hub isn't exciting, but much better than at home. Take this professor if you want a good grade in math!
very nice lady love her very helpful sweet and teaches more than one way to do things
So very cool. a different kind of class where you need to work on the computer. But Prof. kass is always by your side guiding and giving you individual help. i just love this lady
FUN. Helpful and respectful to her students. I'm getting to like math
I LOVE MRS.KASSTo have her as my Professor for my 1st yr of college has been a blessing. Shes attentive, very helpful and willing to help her students.She is always smiling and brings happeniess to the room. Basically the entire time in class your on the computer working.Other then that Mrs. Kass is AWESOME & wish i can have her all through college
Mrs. Kass is one of the best professors you could find here at bergen. She is not strict on being on time, but she expects you to spend at least an hour doing work in the hour and 15 minute class. Shes not strict and loves to help her students. She likes another mother away from home. I recommend taking her because youll never regret it.
She is a really nice lady, and I'm going to try to take her again next semester.
She should engage more with the stundents, she doesn't help yout out unless you ask for help.
A great teacher.
Beautiful inside and outside. Amazing patience. Always there to help you Wish all Professors were like her
I never met the professor in person. I tried twice to email her for two different questions she never bothered to email me back not even once. I always got answers to my questions at the math hub. They are always very helpful there. She did however, email us with some general info and reminders about tests.
great. Love her. She is funny and generaly cares for her students. I feel that she speaks directly TO me and not At me. I wish all Professors were like her
A hard on line class. But I am able to come to the college and speak directly to the professor. She is cool. Always has time for me. She is cute also. Too bad i'm married.
Oh yes. Fun caring and cute. I now like math
Great teacher.
shes great and all but sometimes she makes me feel like a child, not a bad choice for a teacher
EASY A. I took online class and it was easy for me. If you are behind she will let you catch up. But don't let it happen often. Very nice professor.
THE Greatest OF All Time. She treats us like little kids, and if where lucky we might get on her good side
I took this profesor online and she did not care at all about my questions or when i went to take the final and they didnt allow me even though i was ready for it. She was no help at all.
I am taking her course online and I email her occasionally with questions I have. She has a tendency to not any of my questions in her response emails. It's quite frustrating.
She is so sweet, I actually have taken her for two semesters (different math classes). And she is so helpful, if you have any questions or concerns she gets back to you same day. Would definitely take her again.
She's cool. It's on line but I liked her. She always answers her emails within an hour.
I recommend this Professor for your on line class. She gets back to you within the hour if you have a question and writes out the problem for you and helps you solve it. She will photograph the solution. So helpful. I met with her during the spring semester. She is cool I would take her again but she does not teach college level math.
I have taken many on line course cause I work. Ever have I had a professor get back to me with answers to my questions so quickly. I am still taking this couse and hopefully will finish. It's hard but she's good. Take her
I wish she gave extra credit, I took her during corona and I had no childcare or I would have easily gotten an A in her class, her response time is by far the best and she is super nice. my experience with her was online.
awesome caring and wonderful during this stressful semester. I would certainly recommend her for any course she teaches. My second course with her. Gets back to you within a day
Gives attitude and uncooperative and unresponsive, would not take again.
Agree with other reviewer. While she is pretty good at answering her emails during a reasonable time, they are usually one-word answers and seems like she does not have time to deal with you any further than necessary. Since this is an online course, it would have been really helpful if she elaborated on your questions. It could have been better.
I took this math course fully online over summer 1. The course itself is very easy if you keep up with everything. The course consisted of 22 homework, 5 quizzes, 4 exams and a final. Overall, the professor was very good and she answered all my emails in a timely manner. My only complaint is that she gave very short replies to her responses.
Idk why she is a teacher and high in the department. Took multiple classes with her. asynchronous, with not one video example. 3 hour office time (never answers) and no help at all. never had a teacher like this. No help just tells you go tutor. No examples videos or nothing. Just gets a pay check to not care. Shame.
Never answered my emails. I would wait days on end for her to finally answer with little to no help. Would take a whole day to send me the test codes. Seems like she's only here to get paid does not care about the student.
This professor was no help. Had I reached out to her, I would be met with an attitude through email. At the beginning of the course, she said one thing for her to say the opposite halfway through. Is unorganised and does not offer help. HW percentage totals to nothing at the end at 15%, a lot of homework. DON'T take course! Go with diff. professor!
SHE ASSIGNS TOO MUCH HOMEWORK AND DOESN'T TEACH THE MATERIAL. YOU LEARN ON YOUR OWN. SHE GIVES A TEST EVERY WEEK, DOESN'T PROVIDE A STUDY GUIDE NOR EXPLAIN WHICH PROBLEMS YOU GOT WRONG. LASTLY, SHE IS NOT ACCOMMODATING TO LATE ASSIGNMENTS, EVEN IF THEY ARE DUE TO MEDICAL REASONS.
Very caring as this was the first semester back At the college after covid. She gives a quick Lecture and does the module work At the board before class begins Awesome and funny
During this time I lost a relative, which led to me missing a test. She did nothing to help me, and her supervisor (luckily having some empathy) opened the test for me. Another time she accused me of cheating and made me go in person 3 times for some bs excuse of not showing my face. The test closes if the face is out of the frame. -100000/10
I would never take her again she is so rude and didn't reply email. Whenever I ask her she told me to use tutor. She is not friendly at all & yes I get A it's on my hard work. On final if you didn't show for second she tell you to take again didn't reply email she take time to reply I would suggest if you have another option please don't take her.
Difficult course and you have to keep up with the work. Everything is clearly defined. You just have to follow the math program. Professor was very helpful and always answers my questions promptly. I would recommend her
This professor does not care about the students at all, she says she is here to help and when you ask for it she sends you to the tutoring center. She does NOT teach and everything is online on MyMathlab. She truly just goes in to sit and get paid. If you're not passing at the moment she just tells you to withdraw. Don't take her, you'll regret it
This professor is clearly at this job just to get a check and it's sad. Colleges should take into consideration what students are posting on here because clearly it's not a student issue, it's a professor issue. This professor gives you access to mymathlab and leaves you alone to do the work by the due date. I wish I can add more so I can go off
It was a good class the prof explained some things that may be confusing other than that she leaves you for my math lab and I liked that
The prof does not care about students at all do not take at all she should be fired
Do not take this class what ever you do this teacher is the most unprofessional teacher I have ever dealt with . Bergen please fire her there are many comolaints. She should be fired and the people that failed should get there grade reviewed
If you want to succeed in your academic life, becareful with ms L. kass. She will not help you pass but will tell you to register again, so she can make more money or she blesses you with an F grade. Mean spirited and confusing lecture instructions. She confuses you with her lecture instructions and tell you to seek mental health wellness.
Professor Kass runs a challenging but manageable course. While she expects students to be self-driven, she is responsive and provides helpful support. The math lab and unstuckstudy have been great study aids.
She is not lenient, she does not care about her students. I opened up to her about my personal difficulties and she came off cold and rude and told me to drop the course.
Great professor. Difficult course but, the course topics are the same for all of the classes. Professor is caring and helps each student individually to succeed . It is math.. so be prepared to work
Professor Kass is great. Math has never been my strong suit, but I studied every time I did the hw and also before every test. For the 6-week summer semester, we have homework every day, and a test weekly; it's a lot if you don't manage your time accordingly. She sometimes rounds up test grades if you have shown enough work and tried your best!
great and awesome... loved her
Professor Kass is extremely caring and wants to see her students succeed. She uses platform known as Aleks to do both tests and quizzes and often will message you through Aleks as well so be mindful to check the platform frequently for assignments and updates.
I took her summer class. One of the worst professors. She wanted you to know everything in each module fast every 3 to 4 days before exams. If you fail an exam, you have to wait after finishing a module to retake it. She only liked it when I took exams on campus, & not at home. She even wanted a doctor's note when I got sick. I don't recommend her.
