Posts lecture online, but I recommend actually showing up to class. 3 projects but super easy. Has a good sense of humor so you get some giggles during class.

She understands that math is not everyone's strength and that it can be difficult to understand, so she does not use math jargon, will clarify something if you ask, and always provides solid examples. Plus, she didn't make us buy a useless $100 textbook! Take her class, you will have no regrets!

You can tell she really wants you to succeed and will explain in different ways. The coursework can get a little tough but as long as you work hard to understand the homework, you will do fine on the exams. Two midterms, one final, a handful of quizzes with retake available, and mandatory attendance with a few absences automatically excused.

Great professor. Provides online notes & lectures from each class so you can refer back to the material if you're stuck. Each homework assignment has extra credit if you submit 24hrs before due date. She provides comprehensive study material for the midterm and final so you literally cannot fail unless you don't show up to class/are lazy.

She cares about you passing the class and learning what's needed to pass. She's very understandable as long as you communicate with her what you're struggling with.

Professor Halloran is a great math professor. She makes it a point to "dumb down" a lot of the intimidating calculus speak, which is really nice if you have math anxiety. The practice exams she'll post before exams are extremely helpful for studying, too. :) Highly recommend!

Take this class if you want an easy A. Class lectures don't really have any substance. I was able to pass the class with a 98% while only going to half of the lectures and googling how to do everything else. The good thing tho is that she responds really quickly and is willing to help you out if you need it. She's not mean about it either.

If you have math anxiety this is the perfect professor! Her lectures are all very straightforward and clear and she breaks down concepts to make them less intimidating. After each lecture there is a practice question and homework due within the week, all of which is very manageable. If you go to the lectures you will be able to pass this class.

Lecture heavy, but if lost go to office hours and ask questions. 2 midterms, 1 final, quizzes every week with a 2nd chance to get better score. Wants students to understand and participate in solving equations. Homework is super easy points to get a good boost in grade. Would love to take again! :)

Professor Halloran makes a concerted effort to explain complex math concepts clearly. While the coursework can be challenging, her practice exams and willingness to help are invaluable. Unstuckstudy was a great study aid alongside the textbook.

Professor Halloran is an amazing professor who obviously cares about her students and their grades. She makes sure that every single student understands the lesson and posts lesson plans to follow along as well. For the 3 exams over the semester, she allows a sheet of notes that you can write whatever you want. Overall, amazing!

Gives extra credit for showing up on time. Offers plenty of practice questions and exams. HW sometimes 3x a week but not intense. Drops lowest exam score—do well on 3 and skip the 4th. Provides detailed notes online. Bring HW to the tutor center to work on it together. Super friendly and helpful. Great for staying on track!

I took her Math 324. The exams were difficult but very passable. The quizzes are also passable and she allowed you a single piece of paper for use of notes. You can write anything down on it, even questions you've done from the homework which would be on the exam. I wasn't very good at math to begin with but this class structure made it doable.

Even though she provides the answers to all the exams, Professor Halloran doesn't teach the material well. Throughout the semester, the only way we passed was by studying the answers she gave us. She's usually good with responding to emails with questions, but the way they're answered is confusing. I would only take from her again if I needed to.
