Regarding the previous comment,math is math and if you know the concepts you're good to go. There is no "in depth". She doesn't teach straight from the book, she explains it and guides you through.

She sucks. I'm good at math and love doing math so I can tell she is not that great at teaching math. Sure, she makes it easy to do so that's why everyone who doesn't know how to do math love her. Her tests are just as easy. So if you want an easy A take her class. But if you actually want to learn math then take another teacher.

This professor showed up for class very sporadically and I passed with an A but I really didn't learn anything the extra credit at the end of the semester was also basically free polling for her webcast that she does.

I would recommend Professor Lepoint. Started class on campus then due to Covid went Remote. She is passionate about what she teaches. Shes thorough & is open to any questions/concerns. I took STATS 050 w/her & her instruction helped me understand A majority & when it didnt her slides reflected the teaching so it helped alot . She is also caring.

She is a caring person but not a good professor. She came to class unprepared and made slides during lecture, not before lecture. We spent most time waiting for her drawing and talking about unrelated stuff like her Youtube and Blog. See every negative review and compare the number of thumbups. Don't take her if you are math major.

She doesn't check her email and comes late for her class often. All students were waiting for her outside. She even doesn't focus on teaching and spent time talking about other things.

I took her stats class this semester and had a pretty horrible time. She doesnt respond to emails at all, is late to every class and spends a lot of the time talking about her website/non-math related things. Would definitely not recommend for anyone going into math as their major.

Prof. Lepoint is very caring towards her students, although she is very organized when it comes to class time. There are a mandatory textbook and her custom notes requirements but we don't touch it at all. Very slow-paced teacher, but she gives out sample tests. The class was taught online and is recorded but she doesn't post the recordings.

Took Calculus in summer '19, the C I got actually brought my gpa down but I liked Lepoint's teaching. She went over little details that other professors would assume you already know and skip. I learned calculus Im just not a good test taker, her lectures are good too, she connects everything to math. The practice exams were similar to real exams.

Skip class? You won't pass.

Take her if you struggle w math/want credit! Online class was very easy and the slides she uses is basically what's on her tests so show up. She gives sample tests which is basically what's on the actual test. Unlimited attempts for each exam!! Final was questions from previous exams. Idk why she has negative reviews haha, it would be hard to fail

She is by far the best professor I ever had in PCC. Her exams are similar to the practice exams she sent out. She is very straight forward and very understanding. An easy A class if you study from the practice exams.

I took Prof Lepoint's Stats 050 class during Winter Session which is super intense and she made it fun & even though the pace was aggressive I was able to manage the workload. Lots of group work so we could help/teach each other very fun. The neg reviews are bizarre - who cares if a 5 hour class starts 15 minutes late? I highly rec!

She cares about her students understanding the work. I loved her because stats/math doesn't come easy to me, but she made it easy to understand. The people who gave her a low mark shouldn't be trusted. She's it and I highly recommend her

Professor Lepoint is the sweetest. She cares about her students by always asking how we're doing. She gives sample test out & they're exactly like the test, just study it. Sometimes she's late to the class, but it honestly doesn't matter because we still cover everything. If you have trouble with math, TAKE HER! She will help you understand better

Olympia is one of the best professors I ever had in PCC. I learn a lot about STATS from her. Her classes are straightforward and easy. Exams are only from the practice exams. A true gem of PCC.

She's the one writing these positive reviews. Heavy heavy majors run far and fast in the opposite direction. Yeah, it's an easy A. You won't learn a single thing. Look at the negative reviews they are 100% accurate.
