She is a nice person. However, she lacks the teaching skills to be an effective professor. Even in a small room I had trouble hearing her and I sat in the third row.

Mrs. G is a good teacher and her lectures were pretty straightforward. This class wasn't interactive though so I would get bored in class and start zoning off.

I just took Business calculus with her. She was very understanding and caring. She just wants you to focus and take her class seriously. She is a very good teacher. I used her office hours a lot. Her office hours were seriously golden. Make sure to use them as she will help you with whatever problems you have. she rocks!

I took her for the precalculus 110 course. She is a great person and sometimes gave me more points than I received. However, her exams and quizzes are very hard, and almost impossible to get good grades on them. I will advise taking 110A and 110B because 110 is a fast-paced class - 2 topics per day.

I took Math 110 with her this fall semester. Not only was the homework incredibly long, but it was also graded on correctness.

She's a great professor & is a great lecturer, but gives excruciating amounts of HW. Goes over surface level problems in the lectures, but what's asked to do in the HW & exams is much more difficult. It's very frustrating to sit down & try to figure out how to do problems that weren't even taught, so idk why she it like a guessing game.

NEVER TAKE HER CLASS! but if you have to take it, then try the class but drop before the deadline. One homework usually contains 60-70 questions and it never stops. The weekly review is hard and when your class is kinda free there will be labs. The test is very hard and she is a tough grader. she really likes complicated questions. notes are ok.

She seems like a nice person outside of class, genuinely. But unfortunately she has absolutely no idea how to teach the subject. She is not good at explaining. She assigns a criminal level amount of homework that absolutely helps us in no way possible. The homework is genuinely pushing 70-80 questions a night, and the questions have multiple parts.

Would recommend this class if you're a detail-oriented learner, uses an "outcomes" system where if you master a concept once, you wont have to retake for future exams. Exam problems are tough (No partial credit), but near identical to homework. Be prepped to grind through textbook HW, but if you focus each section deeply, you'll have less exam work

She's a terrible teacher. The way she structures her course is even worse. She lies by saying she doesn't give tests then gives u assessments which r 10x harder. At least on tests you get partial credit for her assessment u either pass or u don't. She also threw a temper tantrum because one person came late and another person was on their phone.
