A wonderful professor, exceptionally helpful and a pleasure being in her class

Shes a good teacher all in all if your not lazy, has her own notes which is a great way to keep things clear.

She talks to her class with a very condescending tone of voice. She seems to have an attitude and doesn't enjoy her teaching all that much. She is quite clear on her teaching though.

If you're taking Math 095, you're not going to find ANY teacher easy.

Has great ways of explaining the solutions. Really tight grip on the material. Doesn't make mistakes. Very fast content coverage so do the extra homework!! I would take her again.

First time I saw her I thought she's a student. But anyways, she's a pretty nice teacher, fair tests. But whenever you ask for help she'd never give you the answer she wants you to do it by yourself. She doesn't like guys for sure? I don't think so cuz I'm a guy and I think she likes everyone.

She's very clear when teaching. Likes to get students to really understand what they're doing rather than just know a formula. Quizzes each week are on the homework, so make sure you do it! She doesn't expect ridiculous things from you, just to know the content. Very fair and will help students.

great teacher. Great notes. do your homework

she is a good marker for final, she might seems picky, but she will change for final. don't worry

marsha is a fairly good teacher. she gives half marks on everything. her notes very organised and clear. She is very helpful. over all good teacher

People seem to be blaming the teacher because they didn't do well which isn't fair. Marsha is a great teacher and she IS approachable and really helpful if u just ask. Thumbs up !!

Is a really good teacher and helped me out learning word problems. But from class work to homework to tests and quizes aren't as good. oh well overall a great teacher

Marsha does speak fast, but you get used to it quikly and she's really nice. No problems following her. Always knew what was going on. Funny, interesting, and approachable. Picky about notation, but very helpful overall

marsha is a great teacher. math and i don't get along easily. marsha makes makes so much more simpler and easier. i wish she was my highschool math teacher then i wouldnt have failed math 11!! overall, she is a good teacher and a nice person!

she was quite nice. I recomend her totally!

VEry hard tests. Gives half marks. approachable. eager. Nice teacher. good Humor

I like Marsha's notes, they're so helpful. She is always organized. Overall good teacher.

Very nice, very approachable and she really explains topics well. She helped me out so many times when I was stuck. A+ for this prof !! I wish she taught 126.

hahaha...pay attention in the class and do your homework. Practise the old quizzies on her websites and you'll Ace your quizzies. This is like Math12 so it's not an easy course. :) She's so cute and too bad she has a boyfriend lolz

man~ look at all those "BABYISH" comments. IF you can't do math105, I suggest you go back to MATH 12 cuz college/university is not for kids. Marsha is a nice MATH teacher overall. She's hilarious sometimes but very serious when teaching. I found that her tests are really hard if you didn't study and/or do your homework.

Too smart for this class, doesn't realize that her students don't follow as fast as she teaches. Known to be a terrible teacher, but if you actually do your work she will reward you.

:) well organized...but her quizzes are pretty hard.

If you listen carefully during her lectures, you'll understand her pretty fast, although at times she does talk really fast.In order to do good on her tests,you got to understand the concepts in her notes. Before you write her tests/quizzes,go to her website & do those practice tests,quizzes.She's patient teaching something that you don't understan

With Marsha, you'll have fun only if you want to have fun. Math is for most people (including myself) pretty dry and boring but if you get her going, she will not cease to entertain. Quizes... definatly know what you're doing but there are no surprises; pretty straight forward

she is a good teacher.

Marsha is an energetic math lover! She tries to encourage you to enjoy math which is obviously tough but it keeps it interesting. She is always willing to help in the MLC. Her quizzes are often tough but exams arent quite as hard...if you keep up with the work you will do fine!

boring

She is a good teacher~ very helpful

shes a really good teacher but calc I is very hard!

Well, firstly, I like Marsha! She tries to keep the class a mix of serious, while adding a bit of humour.I appreciated this, as I despise math! I liked her package, because it has all of her notes, and was a good study tool - attend all the classes so you can get these (they're fill-inable)! The weekly quizzes were annoying, but don't give up!!

At first I found Marsha to be somewhat rough around the edges (sometimes even condescending!), but she definetly warms up to the class and usually has a good sense of humour with the class. Weekly/Daily quizes kept me on the ball, and I would have done much better had I studied or done homework.

Marsha is my favourite math prof at Capilano University. She presents the subject clearly. She cares about her students and wants them to succeed. Her weekly quizzes are a good way to study for the exams continuously, prevent "slacking off", and accumulate a good grade.

shes a decent teacher none the less but when it comes down to text book use and questions on the quizes/ tests shes impossible. the weekly quiz always has questions so much harder then you wouldve seen in class or in the textbook. goodluck

I personally think Marsha was fantastic. She is exponentially better than Frank Harris. She has tough quizzes/tests but they are fair and make you stay on top of your work. Try cramming a whole term of calc at the end of the term and see how that goes. Very helpful, and funny :-)

Awesome teacher! By far the best calculus teacher I have ever had. Dont get me wrong... shes hard but if you do all your work and put the effort in, you will do awesome. She is also the most organized teacher you will ever have, interms of correct notes, tutorials, and posted solutions. highly recommend! (=

her weekly quizzes are quite easy, but the midterm is really hard.

Great teacher! If your goal is to learn Calculus I, this is the prof for you. Very organized and very fair. Yes it is true, she is big on proper notation but that is because it is very important. However, she can be generous on her exams and quizzes as well. She will correct your notatoin on your quiz and exam but not deduct marks for it.

Nice enough, and is a good teacher, but tests and (weekly) quizzes are very hard. I looked at the other instructors' quizzes and Marsha's quizzes are like 5x harder than theirs. Also will write in red all over your paper for notation and small mistakes.

I had Marsha for both 105 and 116. She is so much better than a lot of the math instructors at Capilano. She actually tells you what you did wrong. However, she is especially picky when it comes to notations. Best of luck!

Good teacher there is no doubt about that. def able to explain what she is teaching and I like her organization. Weekly quizes in morning block instead of noon is questionable, mark would be atleast 15% higher, but w/e. want to learn calculas take her..

Good teacher, weekly quizes in the morning block is questionable tho. if you want to learn calculas take her class her organization great.

She doesn't exactly come off as friendly but she warms up throughout the course - you can tell she wants her students to do well. Very organized and definitely knows what she's doing, but she moves quickly so make sure you keep up.

very good, clearly outlined, easily accessable.

Marsha is a bit scary at first but she is actually very nice, and funny. The math department in general is pretty tough with marking, so if you have trouble in math, you have to work very hard, or you might fail. She warns you of that inthe beginning.

Very fast teaching, not very helpful. Her notes are very good and everything is clear, make sure you do your homework and the practices or you will fail as she will not slow down.

Very organized instructor. You HAVE to attend every single class in order to follow all materials. I actually like the idea of having quiz every week because this course is pretty heavy and you can't leave it for last minute to catch up. Pretty difficult Course eventhough I like math but I recommend her as your instructor

Marsha is a good teacher when it comes to calculus. However, the topic at hand is very difficult to grasp, and self study plays a big role in doing well. Her notes and lectures are pretty informative. As far as her quizzes, they were pretty fair; she tends to ask easy as well as some hard questions. Watch your notation!

She is GOOD! Math is hard if you don't practice. Marsha gives a bunch of practice exercise and she gives extra example in class. She gives clear explanation. I simply loved her way of teaching.

She gives off that old cat lady vibe but she's actually really cute. As long as you do the homework and attend every class you'll get a good mark. Some test questions are tricky but doable if you also go on her website and do the quizzes.

Marsha is literally the best math teacher I've ever had. She's very clear in her teaching, and helps you if you're stuck! She took the time to go over a whole quiz with me that I failed, and I ended up doing pretty well in her course because of the extra help she provided. I hope to get her in future math courses!

Best prof I've ever had at cap! If you attend and put in some work you'll love it. i don't even like math....

Math is tough and discouraging for me. Having a teacher take a happy-go-lucky attitude towards it, keeping things light, kept the whole course from being a total nightmare despite the nearly overwhelming subject.

Attendance is mandatory because her notes are crucial to understanding the course. Great sense of humour that keeps the lectures light-hearted. The course requires a lot of time studying at home or in the Math Learning Center. Her quizzes are hard, but good to have as they make sure you keep up with the material

Calc is a hard course. It helps to have a prof that actually seems to care about how well the students are doing. As long as you practice the tutorials and take really great notes, it's not bad. The midterms are extremely tough, so it's important you completely understand the material. Make sure you see her a lot in the MLC.

Marsha is awesome. Not only is she by far the best math instructor at Capilano University but she is a very approachable person outside of class. Do take advantage of her hours outside of class and she will help you to her full capability. She might seem scary at first but that's due to her harsh, "real" humour. I actually like calc because of her.

Marsha is the best prof Ive ever had. Shes super helpful outside of class and gives clear explanations. Dont really get the bad reviews on her here, probably bitter students that are too lazy to actually study the material outside of class to get a decent grade.

Had marsha for calc 2 and im really glad I did. She's an amazing teacher with great notes and she's more than willing to help you outside of class. Calc 2 is a very hard course but if you work for it you'll be rewarded with her!

I have taken almost all math courses with her, and enjoyed every single lecture. There is a bit of material but if you put effort into it, you will enjoy taking math with her. As well, If she is not in the office, she is usually in the math study room for any additional help. Highly recommend Marsha Anderson.

Really wants you to do well in her courses. Very thorough in her explanations. If you do the course work that she gives you, and see her out of lecture hours (very accessible) for help when you need it, then you will do well. Also funny as hell.

She has quizzes once a week. She goes over all types of questions that show up on her exams. She genuinely wants everyone to do well. However, she's a tough marker. The textbook was not used at all in my experience.

Super good at explaining math (I've had my share of bad profs that can't explain anything) Beware she is a very tough grader. Takes off a lot of marks for the little things.

Marsha is an awesome math instructor! She is so caring and her classes aren't boring at all. I learned a lot from her classes. She takes quizzes every week which makes us read and keep following up with the material. There is a 5% class activity grade which is really important to her. She also omits 2 of your bad grades which is great!

Makes your foundation stronger and has a great understanding of your problems.

She's one of the goats. All these people complaining should see what Calc 2 is like when you don't have a great teacher like Marsha. I transferred to UBC engineering after a year at cap and I easily say Marsha did a far superior over the 6 math profs Ive had at UBC so far.

Tough class, tough prof, but Marsha actually CARES about you if you're trying (even in online class). She's not going to lower her standards, but she will help you build up your skills to get there. Instead of just giving answers, she walks thru how to THINK about problems and is incredibly patient in office hours despite her tone of voice in class

Really enjoyed Marsha's class, although it was quite difficult. She is a very detail oriented grader so keep that in mind when preparing for weekly quizzes. Also would recommend doing a detailed review of pre calc concepts if you haven't taken a pre-req math course very recently because she does no in class review and expects you to know it all.
