When you spell the GOAT Math professor, it spells H-U-L-S-E-N. Down to earth professor. I would recommend her for MATH 112

She is an amazing teacher, she is super friendly and nice. Very very helpful in guiding you through the steps if you don't understand the problem. I'd recommend 100%

Out of all my years in school I would say that professor Hulsen was the worst teacher I ever had. Everytime I needed help her response was to go to the academic support center because my office hours are full, and does not respond to emails. The study guide she gave me was completely different from what was on the test.

Professor Hulsen makes sure to explain all the materials in class several times, she will help with whatever a student asks, and she will encourage people to go to extra help. She taught her class extremely well and if I were ever confused, she would be happy to help. She absolutely is the best professor if you're going into Precalculus 1.

She is a wonderful person however if you struggle with math take the workshop class instead. She goes very quick and does not explain things well to those who struggle in her course. She gives a lot of homework and doesn't clearly go back and state how to solve things. Though, if you are okay at math but not great with it then you will be okay!

Lectures are insightful.She struggles to motivate/assist students individually. Despite my math struggles, past teachers always supported me, unlike Hulsen, who refused to offer additional help/extra credit. Attending her office hours felt like an inconvenience to her. I went to tutoring. Some prioritize the paycheck over genuine care.

Professor Hulsen was a great teacher for precalc. She always encouraged people to ask questions if they were lost, and her lecture notes were posted for people to follow along in class. I don't enjoy math but she made the experience bearable and helped me pay attention. She cares for her students and wants them to succeed.
