I found her to be a tough, but not impossible teacher. 3 hrs. time spent on hw is a must if you plan to keep up in her class. For some people, calculusI will probably be the hardest class they will have. And she makes sure that you learn it

upside- You will see the ugliest problems and learn to work them. If you manage to get an A or B in this class you are 100% ready for calculus. Shes a fair grader downside- lots of collected h/w. Difficult tests. Expects u to use math discovery center, her T.I's and tutors. She loves math and she expects the same from you.

She is one of the nicest caring teachers at GCC! If you do your homework and study her notes, you're SET! There is no extra studying you need to do except for memorizing formulas, but thats math. You wouldn't regret taking her. Her tests are very predictable as well! I'm completely ready for Math 103 because of her class. Great teacher!

Do not take! She only goes over the examples in the book using author guidelines. Teaches very minimal and expects students to "understand" calculus.

She is one of the worst math teachers at GCC. Avoid at all costs, trust me. There were 43 people on the first day and 11 people taking the final on the last. She copies the examples out of the book and onto the board expecting you to "learn" calc. You will do hours of homework every night only to receive tests that are NOTHING like you learned.

Here's an unbiased opinion: Don't waste your time. Her tests are NOTHING like the problems you do in the book. I put in a lot of time in this class and yet you get a lot of surprises on the tests. Especially if you're planning to transfer, this will ruin it all for you. Take my advice and don't take it with her. Choose another teacher.

I've gotten an A for her class, but it was a very stressful experience for me. She has her teaching style and you can't expect any other approach. Tests are not so hard but the stress you get before it makes you loose points. 43 students were enrolled to her class and 15 of them passed it. You will learn in her class but I won't take her classes.

You also have to be on time... it's a TOUGH class but I thought she was nice. She'll answer Qs during office hours. 9/10 would take again.

Prof Pomeroy knows math but doesn't lecture much. You are to read the book and do the hw. Somewhat like a self study course only you get the next day to ask questions. She assigns 5 hours of hw per day and if you tell her that you're working full time she tells you to stop driving fancy cars so you don't have to work so many hours. Don't take her.
