She is a very good teacher. If you go to class, and listen to what she has to teach you that day, there is no reason not to understand the material. The only thing I didn't like about the class was the mandatory online tutoring segment, but that could be gone next quarter. She has a very deep Indian accent, but it's understandable.

Masaumi is one the most understanding teachers I have ever had at BCC. She takes her time with you and helps you figure out where you went wrong on a problem instead of just giving you the answer and leaving you to figure out where you went wrong at. I really enjoyed her in 80 and in 98 I wish she was teaching 99.

Her lectures are very clear and easy to understand. There's homework assigned usually due on Monday nights . She also hands out test reviews, which no other professor does. The textbook isn't necessary, all homework is on webassign. She allows late assignments if you have a legitimate reason, just talk to her. Would definitely take again!

Maulik was a great teacher. I was concerned at first if I would able to understand her because of her thick Indian accent, but I got acquainted with it very quickly. Every time I had a question after class, she would make sure I understood it, even with the next class filling in the room. I highly suggest taking Pre-Calc with her if possible.
