What Students Say

This teacher is a really good teacher but her test does not reflect what she teaches or her test reviews, her quizzes are almost impossible to pass, I study hours for her test and still can not pass even thought I did all my homework and did good on test review

Lectures were clear but you needed to be in class everyday to understand. Very willing to tutor. If you study and do the homework, which is not required, you can get a good grade. Besides, she gives plenty of extra credit to boost grade and lets you drop some quizes and a test. I got an A and so did a few others who put in the time and effort.

Monique is probably one of the better Calculus II teachers at the university. She is one of those professors who wants to see you succeed in her class. She passes out typed notes for each section.

no, you can't "just show up"! Very good professor, flexible with quizzes, moves prior scheduled tests around physics ones (very helpful!), teaches methods with the consideration of how they'll be used (i.e. on physics tests). Would take a class with again no question. Do your work and you'll do great, just as is on her syllabus.

Unless you had a 4 for AP calc don't take her. She skips several steps at a time whilst presenting examples, loves root signs and negative fraction exponents (algebra is just thrown in to trip you up) and moves through the subject far too quickly.

Rosenberg is a decent teacher but the real good lies in the course design itself. Homework problems are input into a website which tells you if they are wrong and lets you correct them...good for actually knowing whether you're doing something right or wrong. A digital textbook can be used as well. Very good if you've taken Calculus in high school.

Not great at "teaching". Dropped her class after 2 days for a different calc2 because she was going over concepts that I already knew in such complex ways, that I knew I wouldn't have understood it if it were my first time seeing what she was explaining. She gives overly complex explanations and does 35% of the problem in her head.

Really hard, doesn't really teach anything or explain anything. Introduces new things, goes over examples once, and does not explain it. Does one example and moves on. If you ask her to do a homework problem, she doesn't solve it, she just explain the gist of how to do it which is never helpful. Tests are very hard and homework is never like tests.

I actually enjoyed her class. She goes a little fast at times but is very helpful if you go to her office hours. She tries to answer questions you might have in class quickly so we don't lose class time but she still tries. Her tests are basically what she tells you to review and a lot of the in class examples we do, so pay attention to those.

Easily the worth math professor I've ever had. Her homework has nothing to do with what you learn in class, and the tests are much, much harder than the reviews she gives. She barely teaches the material, she just goes over a few examples, skips key steps, makes mistakes on the board, then moves on quickly and leaves you confused. DO NOT TAKE!

Her lecturing is good. BEWARE she loves deducting points on tests for no reason. If you like bad test grades then shes for you!

I didn't think she was bad. She explained concepts clearly in my opinion. If you are able to do the study guide, the exams are based on those questions.

VERY tough grader. If you can get past that, she gives great lectures that are well structured. If you ever miss a class, its easy to follow her posted notes and catch up. Very kind as a person and will remove lowest quiz grades at the end of the semester. Again, she does expect pin-point precision so do be wary.

Attendance is not mandatory, but she will definitely be more understanding if you show up to class and ask questions. Tough grader, but overall good professor.

This prof cares more about the grades than the success of her students and ovrall impact her class has on students GPAs. Every single class is identical. She starts class on the dot and makes everyone sign in to the attendance using a 1 minute timer. She lectures the entire class and calls out students. continuingthis review on another submission..

Never class time to do HW even during longer 1.5hour classes.assigns an incredible amount of hw, making it impossible to predict what could be on the tests or quizzes. Did I mention she has quizzes almost weekly, that go towards your GPA? If your not a math major or have another alternative to take another math class/teacher would 100% recommend!!

Horrible experience. Get out of the class while you still can. Save your gpa from being destroyed by this course and save your grades from being destroyed in other courses as well, as this class takes up all of your spare time. YOU WILL NOT have time for any other coursework. And FORGETT about having a social life! you will be glued to your desk!!!

Monique's MTH161 class is no walk in the park. She has high expectations and a tough grading style. But with dedication and using resources like unstuck ai for study prep, you can succeed. Be ready to work hard, attend every class, and follow her teaching methods closely.

She's harsh but she is helpful when you ask questions and accessible outside of class. Too much homework that is harder than the tests themselves, but good for practice. Definitely do her reviews, they are EXTREMELY helpful. Overall, not a horrible class, but I wouldn't take her if you don't have calc experience.

She does not care about students grades and she is not helpful at all if you are trying to raise your grade or learn the topics. Tests are very hard and a lot of people fail them. Class used to be full but about a quarter had to withdraw. Avoid at all costs.

She's a great professor, don't let the bad reviews fool you. Her lectures are well structured and as long as you do the work you will have no problems in her class. People are just lazy and always want the easy way out, that's why her rating is not that good because she actually makes you work hard and learn the material.

Everyone who rated her THAT low is either not good at math or lazy. She was such a funny, caring, and knowledgeable professor! The only thing I do have to say is that she is a super tough grader. She will give partial points... occasionally. But please, don't let these reviews scare you! She is not bad, definitely take her if you can :)

honestly she's overhated. kind of has an attitude but you can still ask questions and she won't be mean like other ratings have said. content is hard, but calc 2 is just a hard class in general. tests/quizzes are significantly harder than homeworks and even exam reviews, though. i think she's funny, and she's responsive to emails.

Genuinely the worst grader I've ever had for a math course. I don't know what kind of system she uses to grade but the amount of points that each question is worth on the quizzes makes you think that you would get extra credit for a majority of the correct work done, except you get flat out 0 points. An absolute grade tanker if you take this course

She is one of the worst professors I've had. She's just really bad at teaching and thinks that everything should be obvious already. She doesn't curve tests even when 80% of the class fails. When you ask questions she will make you feel so dumb.

Professor Rosenberg is an extremely knowledgeable, caring, and hilarious teacher. Many bad reviews are solely because this class requires a lot of effort, but she is always willing to support you. I recommend going to her office hours for help and showing up to every class. She drops the lowest test grade and only kept 5/8 quiz grades, which helps!
