I absolutely loved this class! She's a great teacher!
Very nice
What an awesome teacher! In clas group quizzes, notes for final exam. She understands math well, and can teach it to those who have no clue. I hated math until her class, she helped me tremondously!
excellent teacher! I wish the could all be as good as her.
not to hard
She is the best! Absolute inspiration!
I hated math and i was very bad in it but Mrs Sutton made it seem so easy and now i am passing the class and actually liking it. She is awesome and i recommend her to anyone.
Lynn is awesome. I love her class. She makes learning so much fun. She is really down to Earth. She knows you have a life outside of school, so she doesn't make it too difficult. She is awesome.
Great teacher and great personality. Lynn is very helpful and willing to work with your schedule. I learned a lot from both classes I took with her.
Lynn is a good teacher, when she shows up. She likes to make sure you understand what is going on, and she will work her hardest to make sure you do, but she's only been to about 8 classes all semester, and this is the second to last week.
Lynn is great! If she isn't at class there is a ligitimate reason for her not being there. She's extremely helpful and pleasant. A great joy to have been in 3 of her classes.
Wonderful teacher. Even though I was underqualified for the class I took, she made it very easy. Too bad she only taught for half the semester. Very enjoyable to be around.
She really understands math and knows how to teach it in so many different ways. She also is down to earth and fun. To a couple of the above comments she was on maternity leave. (twins) She was always in class. For the two courses I had her for.
Explains everything very well. Has no problem re-explaining if you don't catch on. Very clear. Hated the substitutes. They wern't as good as she is.
Group work!!!..aka. EEASY points! If you dont understand, you will either learn it in the group or Lynn will explain it. Down to earth, nice. Passes out CaNdy during tests.
Don't bother with her distance learning class. Takes forever to return tests, videotapes are more confusing than helpful.
Lynn is an awesome teacher... she's very organized and she makes sure you understand everything in her classes... Group work got you to see others' perspective on the work and figure out new ways to do things. I love having her for an instructor.
She's awesome. She's dedicated to her students!!!!
good energetic and excited math teacher, made things very easy to understand, very helpful took the time to explain things so that everyone understood
NEVER RESPONDED TO EMAILS REGARDING QUESTIONS ABOUT HOMEWORK!
She takes an awesome approach to math by allowing you to work in groups on all labs (basically the in class assignments). Homework can also be done in your groups. Exams also have a group work part on them. She makes sure that everyone understands the work and doesn't just give you the answer when you ask a question. She makes you think.
Love the class and hoping to take her for 161. She doesn't just give you the answers. Group work most of the time and when you're not working in groups you got to use your notes.
She did not answer my questons.
Mrs Suttton was great!!! I hadn't had a math class in a while and thought that I would have to take 101 in order to take this class. She brings you where you need to be and offers a lot of help and explanations.
Great professor. Very helpful and fun.
Lynn is the best Math teacher that I have ever had. No one has ever explained things in such a clear way and it is obvious that she knows the math and isn't just teaching out of a book. If you take notes and review them before a quiz or test, there is no reason not to get an A. I highly recommend her.
Great teacher, makes sure you understand everything. Super easy quizes, the finals are multiple choice, and homework is pretty much optional! Only complaint is that she uses the calculator a lot and doesn't teach you to do it by hand first (I know most people don't care about that but it makes it easier for me to understand)
Lynn is the best math teacher I've ever had. She made it easy and this is coming from a kid who tries to avoid math classes like the PLAGUE! You have a quiz every week but they are in groups, and the only test you take is the final. Homework is optional too, but I recommend doing it. I got an A and that's an unheard of math grade for me! She rules!
one of the best math professors at mott.
Ms Sutton was very easy going and so helpful. I just hated math was dreading taking this class but it turned out to be alot of fun. I would definitely take her again. She will help anyway she can!! Great teacher. Thanks
If you struggle with math take Lynn, she explains everything very clearly and makes sure everyone understands. Take her class....
A very helpful instructor, she'll go way out of her way for you. A++ teacher.
This woman is awesome. Great lady. She knows her stuff. Extremely helpful. I hate Algebra, but she explained it to where I did undrstand it. I wish all teachers at Mott ere like her.
She was very helpful, friendly, and liked seeing her students learn and succeed. She was also the coolest math teacher I've ever had because she is down to earth and has a sense of humor, unlike those math professors than can induce catatonia in their students.
I had her Basic Math and she was an awesome teacher, but I am taking one of her online classes and she takes forever to grade our tests so it makes it hard to see where you stand when your taking an exam without having a grade for your previous exam.
Very clear. Easy A as long as you know what you're doing. No note quizzes but full note final.
Very helpful! Goes over every assisgnment on board; as well working with you one on one! makes math enjoyable and fun to learn for those who suck in math! 'like me'!
Sutton is a great professor. She is helpful, easy to understand, and down-to-earth (unlike math professors who are robots). I felt like she wanted me to succeed because she was always willing to spend time and help me understand things more clearly. Also, her unique teaching format of alternately working individually and in small groups helped me.
Awesome teacher, can teach anybody math, even those who have are long history of disliking math found class interesting, and learned something. She was very fun and a likable person with a sense of humor which relieves a bit of stress!
I took her online course because of course, she has amazing reviews, and I do not doubt that she is an amazing prof. but do NOT take her for an online course, unless you can teach yourself basically everything like I have. I expected at least videos... nope. And barely ANY examples in her notes. ugh :(
Awesome! she breaks everything down so you can FULLY understand what exactly she is teaching. You take both group and individual quizes, also you have group projects. Always give you answers to quizes. The final is an open note final, and she gives you a heads up on exactly what to expect in the class. I enjoyed being in her class :)
Excellent professor. I never truly understood algebra until I took her class.
DO NOT take this class online unless you want to teach yourself out of the book or from Youtube with little to no instruction from the professor. Very slow to return test grades. I took my final exam before knowing the grade I received on the prior exam.
Fantastic teacher! I waited to take MATH-120 until I could get her as my teacher. I took MATH-82 with her as well. She works to assure you understand the materials presented and is always willing to spend extra time to explain information when needed.
Amazing teacher!! I absolutely hated math and hardly understood it until I took her. I had taken this course once before and had to withdrawl due to a horrible professor. She's very thorough and assures you know the material. Very organized and takes her time in explaining the methods used for the material, all you gotta do is show up!
Don't let the other ratings fool you like they did me. She is horrible! Does not respond to emails, no help when needed, fast pace, always late to class, unorganized, does not use blackboard, late in grading, ect... Only grades with quizzes and exams. I had to drop this class at mid-term due to all the above issues and more.
If you are taking math trust me you want to take her, She is the best math teacher there! And she breaks down problems in dummy mode so that you get it! She is the best math teacher there.
Well prepared and willing to help.
She allows students to use their notes on everything. This is one of the reasons that most of the students adore her. I find that it means that most of them skate by without actually understanding what it is that they are actually doing. She is slow to grade exams and quizzes and is constantly running late to class.
She is by far the best professor I've ever had. Always on time explains every step very clearly she grades promptly and once you receive you're quiz or exams back she's gives and answer key to show what you may have done wrong. She is willing to answer and questions. Doesn't require homework and allows group work on some quizzes. I would recommend
Prof. Sutton was AMAZING! I was so worried about doing well in this class, as math is not my strong subject. She made it clear and understandable. Would recommend her to everyone, especially those who struggle with math. Her awesome personality was a bonus!!
Professor Sutton is the best math teacher I have ever had! She goes over example problems step-by-step on the board and makes things easy to understand. She sets clear expectations and is more than willing to help anyone understand the concepts. Homework is optional, both individual and group quizzes, and open note midterm and final!
There are quizzes, some are done in groups, and test, all open note. She is very clear on what she expects, and tries to explain it the simplest way and is always willing to help.! She gives your a list of practice problems but they are not turned in for grades.
This is by far the best math teacher I've ever had, she's great at what she does. She takes time to use different color marker (makes it much easier to understand) and she's real down to earth. If you don't think your good at math, you'll feel like a know it all by the time you walk out of there. Definitely recommended!
Got a 95% or better on every test. Show up and you will pass. She is amazing at explaining things if you need extra help. Very caring
She was my teacher for Math140 and 170. Lets you use all of your notes on exams and quizzes. Shes very easy to talk too. If you plan on taking math above calculus 1(math170) don't get use to using notes for the exams! Luckily for me i just needed up to 170. She is a Michigan Tech alumni, so that's a plus. She's great. Dont get too comfortable!
I had to retake Math 120 and I chose Professor Sutton and it was a great choice! Let's you use as many notes on Quizzes and Tests. You can buy the book to do Homework but I never used it. No Calculator but in reality you can't use a Calculator in a Math 120 class anyways. Does group and individual quizzes too.
Just read all the other reviews! She is an amazing teacher that make sure her students know what she is covering. She is always willing to help when you ask a question. If you are good at math and dont need a lot of extra practice, dont waste your money on the book. Full notebook page cheat sheet for every test. Can use all notes on Final Exam.
I loved her style of teaching math not being my strongest subject she made it much more tolerable. She color coats everything on the white board, and breaks it apart until it is easy to understand. You don't need a book don't waste your money she gives you study sheet and allows notes on exams and quizzes. The group quizzes great and help alot!
She is a nice lady, however, not the best teacher. Yes, you do get a 8in x11in notesheeet for all exams and you are allowed to use your notes on quizzes, but i strongly suggest you take a different professor if you actually want to understand the subject. Shes also big into group work and this is where youll be doing most of your learning.
Ms. Sutton is amazing!! She is the best teacher around, I definitely recommend her!
A wonderful professor ! she explains everything and allows for questions to be asked . Loved her !
Definitely need to purchase the math book, very nice professor. She is very clear and really takes her time to help you understand. She grades fairly and will give you points even if you got it wrong. I recommend her!
She is a great professor. She made everything easy to understand, and she didn't move on till every one understood the material. I probably won't need another Math class, but if I do, I hope that I can have her again.
If you want to understand math, take her. If you are a first time college student or someone returning to school I recommend her. She doesn't move on until everyone understands the criteria. She's very nice. Have to buy the book. She is awesome.
Best math teacher I have ever had. If you struggle with math take her, she makes everything easy to understand, color coordinates her notes, organized and very approachable. No homework, open note and group quizzes, and a cheat sheet for exams. I did not use my textbook at all. I will definitely take her again, easy A if you put in the work.
Excellent Professor! Very easy class, she explains the content extremely well! Group quizzes and classwork, tests are on your own but you are more than prepared. Homework is optional but highly recommended, if you pay attention you will pass and do the homework you will pass. Best math teacher I've ever had.
She is a wonderful teacher and allows you to use cheat sheets and notes. Only downside is she was absent often this semester but it was because she was sick (out of her own control, I understand that) It just kind of sucked because she was gone during test reviews often. Explained the material and was amazing regardless!
Math is my worst subject but she made it very easy. Thoroughly explains everything. Accessible outside of class. Very nice and is willing to help. There is book use. Lots of group work, group quizzes.
She encouraged me to calm my anxieties and assured me she had worked with students just like me in her 26 years of teaching. She was always pleasant, eager to help and further explain. She took her time and wasn't annoyed if you asked questions or needed clarification. She lets you work in groups except on exam days. She is fair. Just do the work.
She makes things very easy, but that can be a little boring if youre more advanced in mathematics.
She is the literally the sweetest woman, she cares so much about each individual student and in the online class puts so much effort into making videos for all of the problems. The problems were through Connectmath. Also for the textbook, dont make my mistake and overpay- get the access code because the textbook is digital through there!!
Overall good class. Quizzes can be taking unlimited times. Discussions must be done. Exams arent too hard. If you need help, its not easy. Professor is very nice!
She is nice and easy to work with, I did not have much communication with her since I had this class online, but when I did she was very nice and understanding.
I went back to school after many years and math was a requirement. I'm so glad I got in this class. Math is not a strong subject for me but Prof Sutton was very thorough and I could understand it. Some chapters were a breeze, others I had to work at it but she was accessible if I had any questions. Syllabus was clear. Weekly lectures via Zoom.
She does nothing. Professor Sutton was not at all involved in this class at all. There are no assignments, only tests. This class was horrible for me.
Math is hard for me, but Professor Suttons course is easy to follow, and her videos are very helpful. If you keep up on your assignments and are not afraid to reach out to her for assistance when needed, you will do fine. She is very good at responding to messages and will help you when you need it.
The course used ALEKS which was hard to navigate. If any small human error occurred in a quiz or test, it was marked wrong. She also didn't put grades into canvas, it was automatically input from ALEKS. Overall not bad, keep up on lectures and give a lot of time to do the quizzes and tests. The syllabus has everything in it so reference everything
Very easy class and thorough lectures to watch the steps. There was virtually no homework- it was kind of up to you if you wanted to do the problems. It's in your benefit obviously but the homework assignments aren't turned in for credit. Nice professor, and she responds back in a timely matter.
Grades take a while to get posted, but she is really helpful and understanding. Offers a couple of extra credit assignments. The only thing that sucks is that you need to purchase "XYZ homework".
I am shocked that this professor is rated so high. She does not grade homework. Whatever you study (gives sad homework list to do that is NOT graded) is up to you. Not great at helping. Would NEVER take class again. Was never available to help.
Hated this class and wouldn't take again. The class was fully online through an outside source and it felt as if lectures and tests had nothing in common. I've always been advanced in math and have taken 2 years of calc and STILL struggled. I reached out a few times for help via email with no response. She is not involved in this class whatsoever!
This course moves FAST, and almost your entire grade relies on tests. You have to read at least 1 chapter per week and take a quiz, and then there are 3 big tests. Tests are Very Accessible. No discussion boards. Did offer extra credit, and a chance to bump up your grade with an optional test at the end. I found this class challenging.
Not clear on grading at all! Thought I had a 92% at the end of the class and it somehow dropped below last minute??
