Very Unhelpful Take any one else. i had already taken the course in high school and was tutering people. She is the only teacher in high school that i have had in college that is bad.

She can't teach and makes the tests very hard. Which is not a good combination. I withdraw ed from her class.

Worst teacher ever when I took her about half of the class dropped. She is too smart to teach!

She is very unclear in teaching, cannot even express simple ideas from geometry. Do not take her, its a waste of time as the attendance is mandatory.

Forces you to pay $95.20 for access to the homework website. Does not explain anything. Is lazy and puts everyone in teams so she doesn't have to teach. Expects you to stay hours over class time to take her tests. Insults other classes during class time. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Stay away!! I took her for precalc and received my first C ever! Hard to understand her teaching. It is almost as if she is too smart to explain the material. Don't be fooled by the first unit, the tests only get harder as you progress through the semester.

Worst professor I've had. She teaches everyone as if they're math majors. The tests are impossible to succeed on. She is not much help in her office hours. I took her knowing I would need to work hard, & thinking it can't be as bad as people say. No matter how hard you work, you will not meet her expectations. O-chem was easier.

My time in Dr. Allen's class was the worst school related experience I have ever had. She would skim the surface of problems and not tell us how or why something happened but then when you asked her why, she would give back bitter remarks. Also, she is extremely picky with grading. If your work isn't perfect to her standards, you wont get credit.

I took this class during COVID, so it was all online. Dr Allen did not teach one single thing the entire semester. I spent countless hours attempting to teach myself math, when it should've been the teacher doing her job. She is rude, disrespectful to students, does not care about students, and didn't even teach on zoom, there wasn't even a zoom.

Very disrespectful teacher. When asking for help on email she would blame me not understanding on my effort in the class but i had an A. Class is said to be 2 days a week but she held 1 optional zoom per week where she didnt even teach. The final has questions from optional assignments which didnt ask the problem but asked it by the question #

Her teaching style is very unhelpful and does not give any extra credit like other comments say. The content isn't aggressively difficult and can be learned on your own luckily. Help was EXTREMELY hard to come by from this professor. This class was very unorganized and directions seemed unclear, it is important you stay on top of your work.

Although she may think sh his teaching well, she simply is not. She does not accommodate her students at all. Her tests and participation assignments are at times completely different than what she taught. The only reason I passed was because I learned from our student instructor. Would not recommend this teacher. no offense

Martha Allen was the most disrespectful, awkward, and unhelpful professor I have ever had. Considering I took this class during covid, she did NOTHING to help her students and 100% relied on her TA. She did not teach a single class, and when students reached out to her directly for help, she was in return bitter and snippy. Do not recommend.

she makes you do everything in a precise way so you cannot have any freedom to learn your own way

By far the worst professor Ive had out of the three years Ive been in college. She grades like youre a math major and doesnt give good examples to work off of. Her assessments are all graded tough so theres not much cushion for your grade. The exams are impossible and shes not much help if you email her. DO NOT take her for any math class.

The professor is an extremely harsh grader. If you do not answer the way she wants you to, then you will lose points. She gives you a lot of feedback on the material, but it does not do a lot of good. I would not take her again.

She straight up didn't do her job. Her classroom is 'flipped' meaning you teach yourself outside of class and come to class as like a study hall and ask questions as needed. seems ok? she sits at her desk all day and when you ask a question she belittles you and tells you to check your notes. Shes practically helpless. would NOT recommend her.

I took her Quantitative reasoning class and instead of teaching the class, she makes you group up with peers and help each other so if you ask her a question, she wont really answer it. Other than tests, your homework, activities and quizes are online. (its nice until it gets marked wrong for an extra comma) Be ready to teach yourself....alot

She does not teach. Expected us to be able to teach ourselves off of worksheets and videos. If she took the time to even teach one class a week it would help tremendously. Would not recommend this class if you are not math inclined.

Martha Allen is a horrible professor. I dropped out not becuase my grade was horrible (it was though) but becuase I belittled and constantly in tears outside of class. I felt like no matter how much I studied, I still could not get a good grade. My best advice would be to find a different math class and save ya'll some heartache.

Far and beyond the worst professor I have ever been "taught" by. First off, a "flipped classroom" is just a fancy way of saying "I'm gonna stand here at the front of the class and get paid to do nothing." Allen didnt teach me anything in this course, and whenever I asked for help, she was incredibly vague. Do NOT take her class if you can avoid it.

The homework was not similar to the quizzes and it wanted such an exact answer in certain formats but didn't say how. I could put a more simplified version of the answer and it would be wrong. The notes barley helped with anything, everything I learned was from a tutor I hired. I was .0001 off she asked me to prove why I deserved partial credit

I personally would never retake this class. I find that the homework and practice activities don't come close to the difficulty of the tests and she was very snarky in emails requesting help and is useless if you have any questions on homework or quizzes and tests. If you are not naturally gifted at math I would not take this class.

I like Calculus, but she made that class a living hell. Exams were impossible and homework took hours every single day. Quizzes were super hard. She doesn't teach. She expects you to learn everything yourself before class. Homework is also stuff you've never been taught. She just has you answer questions in class without explaining how. AVOID HER.

Terrible. She sits at her desk staring into your soul watching your group struggle on the same problem for an hour. Trying to understand her explain problems consistently brought tears to my eyes. One time my group had to stay after class for an hour to complete an activity just to get a 70. Avoid taking this class if you want to keep your sanity.

This class was a flipped classroom which meant that we had to learn all the curriculum ourselves. Martha Allen also didn't contribute or help me when I was confused. Every class we would group up and help each other on our homework. When we would ask her questions if we were doing it right and she always said "I don't know you figure it out"

Don't take her, she was by far one of the worst teachers I have ever had. She is extremely awkward and will not help her students at all and she can't teach. She uses a flipped classroom method, which essentially means teach yourself. Homework load is heavy, and takes hours to do because you'll have to teach yourself through a series of videos.

Dr. Allen is a horrible professor. You have to learn the topics yourself. Once, she snapped at me for using an arrow to show where I went on my paper for the next step. I have cried over this class and my grade countless times; this class and Dr. Allen will severely affect your mental health. If you have an option (which I didn't), do not take her.

She is one of the worst professors here at Georgia College. She does not know how to teach so she uses a flipped classroom and cannot even help you with questions in class. If you take this class get ready to teach yourself an entire semester's worth of material with no help from the person supposed to be teaching you.

This professor is very hard to learn from you have to really put in work to do even ok. It's all online and what you do all of class doesn't cover what's on tests. It's not an environment anyone feels like they can ask questions or for help, and if you do you won't get help and it is long and awkward. Do not take

Does not explain well at all, gets visibly annoyed when you ask questions. She answers questions in circles, not giving a clear answer often leaving you more confused then before. Also does not go over all of test material before test sometimes information is just in packets she gives you and does not explain them.
