I had her for MTH 107. TAKE THIS TEACHER. Her tests are so easy and if you do not finish your homework on time she will give you an extension. You take a quiz at the end of every week. They are like 3 questions and she tells you how to do the problem right before the quiz. My biggest advice is to take Lisa!!!!!!

If you're going to take Math 107, take it with Lisa! She is caring and understanding towards her students, as she will always extend the homework if needed. She always prepares her students for the quizzes and tests by telling us exactly what to expect. If you're taking this class, your best bet is to take it with her!

This was the best professor I have ever had. She is kind, caring, and really wants to help her students understand. She always gives really good test outlines before any exam that help a lot. I loved coming to her class everyday, she really was the best teacher. She made me want to take more math classes!

I wish every mathematics professor was exactly like professor DeMeyer. Her lectures are not boring and the way she explains calculus is like no other. Her homework is on WebWork and extensions are always granted which makes the class much less stressful. 100/10 rating. Do take her class if you can.

Only 3 weeks into the semester and this teacher is amazing. So good at explaining math, caring, responds to emails and messages quickly, grades quickly. If you have the chance, take her. It's either her 9am class or someone else's 10am class, trust me waking up 1hr earlier is def worth it. Already predicted my A grade. Online textbook used.

I strongly dislike math but had to take calculus for my major. She made it tolerable, and I passed with a B which I was very happy with. You definitely have to put in the work, but she will guide you through it. She is very lenient and is always there to help. Weekly homework but she will always give extensions! Take her if she is an option!

She was amazing. She described calculus in a way that made perfect sense and went at a great pace. She reopened homework assignments past the due dates for whatever reason. Great professor!!

Dr. Demeyer is definitely my favorite professor I have had. She is one of the most understanding, flexible, and kind-hearted professors you will have. She clearly cares about her job and ensuring that all students who care and try succeed. If you do not understand something, do not hesitate to ask because she will always be willing to help!

I actually have her for MTH 499, but she is a model professor. She loves mathematics and teaching. She will care about your success and improving the class after you're gone. She does not have an easy class, however, but you don't learn from the easy ones.

Very nice, very forgiving partial credit, and a timely grader. Beware her lectures are really just her talking at you. She explains the concepts very well, but if you need to do problems yourself to learn you wont find that in her lectures. Textbook only needed if you do the practice problems, I was able to get an A with only the online homework.
