People complain about her accent, but that's not what bothers me. It's more her style of teaching that makes her hard to understand. She lets you work the problems yourself first, so you usually get it *wrong* first, and that just reinforces bad habits in math. Explanations or examples first, please! She *does* divide the tests up over two days...

Her accent wasn't too bad. After a week or 2 I got used to it. I would ask her for help she would tell me to go to the tudoring center. She would miss class the day before a test & have a sub review us. That didn't help at all. I basically taught myself calculus. She gave extra credit but thats because everyone was doing poorly in her class.

I recommend her for anyone, she does have an accent but she is very smart! she has pretests the day of the test that are very helpful!! She is always finding a way to give you partial credit for anything that you turn in. Stay on top of your homework and quizzes and it is easy to pass her class.

Prof. Milani is a very sweet teacher. I will admit ,at first I thought I wasn't going to do good in her class, but I ended up pulling off an A. She offers extra credit at the end of the semester that helps a lot. If you're not the strongest in math, I wouldn't take her class. I liked her as a teacher and I'm taking her next semester.

I feel that a lot of these reviews are from students that did not pass the class. The course is incredibly easy if you try. As long as youre willing to put forth some effort, Milani will see that and make sure that you pass her course. Ask for help. And go to the review sessions for the exams, she goes over the same type of problems from the exams.
