She was by far the best math teacher on the campus. She was extremely helpful and willing to meet after class, do her reviews and take home quizzes and you're guaranteed an A. I recommend her for every class that she teaches. All in all she just knows how to teach.
She was a great teacher!!! Very helpful!
Applied Calculus, not a fun subject but anyone could pass and actually understand the material with Penny Morris as your teacher.
Mrs. Morris is a great tutor not a good teacher. Her test are so easy and you must be careful because the final is made by the department and very hard unlike her test. She gives lots of extra points and even allows you to have a cheat sheet on all the test. If you are a math major take someone else. For degree requirements, Morris is #1!
She really does a good job at explaining things, but sometimes goes pretty fast. My advice: pay attention!
Provides study group, excellent teacher
Excellent professor. Guides you through the TI-83 related to Statistics.
Good teacher..easy tests!!! I wish she would of taught Calc 1, Calc 2, and Calc 3...then i would not have to worry about failing!!
This is, buy far, the best teacher I have ever come across in my entire school career. Finially someone who is passionate about teaching. She is one of those people that if I were rich, I would make sure she was taken care of just because of the wonderful and caring person she is.
Very good teacher. She is eager to help and very clear.
One of the best Math Teachers. Very Helpful and always available. Very clear on whats expected.
Professor Morris is an awesome teacher. I had her for Stats and everyone in the class (who paid attention) is doing great and passing. She's really nice and understanding. I definately say take her!
Great teacher. She helps you any way she can. She gives you a review a few days before the test and if you do the review you will get a good grade on the test. She gives quizes but drops the lowest 5. She is great. I would take her again in a second. There needs to be more teachers like her. Get her if you can. You wont regret it!
Prof. Morris is the absolute best math teacher out there... TAKE HER!
She cares a lot about her students and has several help sessions. She gives study guides before test. If you know them very well you should do good on the test. Gives take home quizzes. That helps a lot so you don't just have 4 tests to rely on. She is really good. I am taking her again next semester
Extremly nice and helpful. She does go a bit fast in notes, but will slow down if asked. Gives constant updates of study help sessions and some info on other college activities. Very nice, knows what she's talking about.!
There are 6 tests with one drop, 15 quizzes with 5 dropped. She takes attendance, but is linient. Tests are easy, the final is hard. You can survive this class without the text book. She tries to make math understandable and is pretty successful. It is an easy class, but don't get too comfortable or you won't be ready for the final.
wonderful math teacher, willing to help and kept class in oder
She is the greatest professor ever. Gives you several changes through the term for extra credit. Explains everything very clearly, you can't help but pass the class.
Everyone Loves Penny !! And it is true, She is the Greatest. Take this Professor and you will not regret it !!
AWESOME TEACHER!!!! ONE OF THE BEST IN THE DEPARTMENT!!! KIND AND HELPFUL!!!ALL AROUND WONDERFUL!!! HERE'S A HOT CHILI PEPPER TO PROFFESOR MORRIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Penny Morris is a great prof. She should be instructing other prof. on teaching ideas, as long as you do the reviews, quizzes, and homework you will do well.
She is an excellent teacher. Is patient and caring
Such a nice teacher and wants everyone to pass!
Amazing Professor!!! If you are taking her for MGF1106 she will give you 15 quizzes of which only 10 count, dropping the lowest 5 and 6 tests of which she drops 2. She enjoys what she does and it shows. You will learn, but it is also an easy class.
She was a great professor, but for trigonometry she went too fast with examples. Class did seem to fly by, but sometimes I felt like I didn't learn anything. I spent a bunch of time learning it myself. She is very helpful and knows her mathematics.
Very Great teacher, i had her for calculus 1 and 2 and she was the best teacher i think i could have gotten! She makes sure you understand the material and is always willing to help you with any need! I would take any class possible from her!
Morris is an excellent teacher! She goes out of her way to make sure that students have the info they request. Gen Leadership had quality info but required EXCESSIVE reading and writing homework. I spent more time than anticipated on taking notes from the book for my portfolio for this class and it took valuable time away from my other courses
I really enjoyed professor Morris' class. She gives many opportunities to succeed and is very organized. She always makes study guides available which is really important in math. She is also a sweet teacher but when I would go talk to her personally I felt a little uncomfortable. Like she didn't like me. haha But maybe I'm just paranoid.
She was the BEST teacher I've ever had. Period. I got a 100% in her class and before I had her class I was bad at math. She was so easy to understand and I looked forward to coming to class. I would reccommend her to anyone!
One of the best for Math Period. I took a very challenging Precal/Trig course over the summer. She worked with me constantly to made sure I understood the math. As long as you give 100% she will get you through the class no matter what.
She's an awesome teacher. She was very helpful and patient. She gives you reviews and take home quizzes, which some of the test questions are from the reviews or quizzes. She's very patient and wants you to succeed. This was my 3rd time taking this course and the first time I actually understood what I was doing. Wish I would've taken her FIRST!
Professor Morris is AWESOME, KIND, CARING, SUPERB, INTELLIGENT, WONDERFUL, COMPASSIONATE, and just flat out FANTASTIC at what she does. What more is there to say! :)
I have been a solid C math student(sometimes below)my entire life.Professor Morris helped me to achieve my first A in math ever-Statistics.She is absolutely incredible and easy to understand.If you struggle with math, she is the person for you.She works with you, gives reviews, allows a note card, and some extra credit(that may save you in the end)
Professor Morris is a very sweet lady. However, she is not the best to understand. She rushes over everything so you have to slow her down. She will help you though. She is better to understand as a tutor because she takes her time.
Pros: sweet, respectful, smart, knowledgeable. Gives great study guides and review sheets, follows her syllabus to the letter, always available in her office after hrs. Cons: goes way too fast with material, assuming you already knew it, and always goes over the class time.
Morris is an excellent teacher. If you don't understand something she will work over it until you do. She can be speedy, but she will slow down if you tell her to. She gives reviews before each test and will drop 1 test and 8 quiz grades.
Great teacher if you already know alot about it. Past her class with an A and made an A on every test. Her fill in the blank quizzes are tricky. She wants the answers exact and will count off if they arent. Never made an A on any quizzes. But her study quides are extremely helpful and so is your formula sheet she lets you make for test and final
She is an awesome Professor. I have never had another mathematics professor make learning how to do math as easy as she does. She does go fast, but she will slow down and go over problems if you do not understand them. I would recommend her for any math! =)
Professor Morris is by far the best Algebra professor I've ever had. Before taking her class I had never made an A in a math course. I made an A in her class. She explains things well and will go over it as much as you need her to. She cares about her students and wants you to succeed. You can tell she's passionate about what she does.
Professor Morris is a great teacher, I'm terrible at math and I was able to understand her teaching style clearly. She does move a little fast but is more than willing to help during and after class. Would recommend her to anyone.
Mrs Penny Morris is a fantastic Algebra professor. She is so helpful and makes it so easy. I'm horrible in math, made Ds in high school back in 2004 and I had her last semester and she was wonderful and I made an A. Me, making an A! I recommend her for anyone who doesn't do well in math. She's great and wants you to understand the work and do well.
Took this course as fast track over the summer. It moves very quickly and is a lot to take in, but Professor Morris makes it as simple as possible. She is very easy to understand and knows the material very well. She is an amazing professor and I would take any math course she teaches.
She is a great teacher, and tries hard to help when you are struggling, simplifies everything!
Ms. Morris truly cares about teaching! I took intermediate algebra, algebra and satistics with her! She will go out and beyond to help you learn! Class goes by quick and its hard to learn everything but she will meet with you to help what you do get in class! You HAVE to do homework in all the classes to pass for the most part!
She is not good at explanations, she was rude to students sometimes, she does not require homework, but it helps to do it. If I was not good in Math, I would have failed. If she does not explain things well, you are a lost cause. The book does not help at all. She talks like you should already know everything.
She is horrible at explaining and very unforgiving. My uncle died and I had to go to his funeral in another country for a week and She did not let me retake the exam that I missed or make up the quizzes.
horrible teacher! I picked her for college alg. because of her ratings and am totally regretting it. if you are horrible at math DO NOT TAKE HER!! spends almost entire class going over homework, works to fast on problems and does not break them down, step by step
She is the sweetest. Kinda dorky but really has the drive to help anyone any way she can. Clearly explains the material and helps with tricks to make SURE you get it. Starts off each class with current events and questions about homework. Even if you attend every other class, you'll still do great. ONE OF THE BEST AT POLK STATE, do not pass her up!
I'm horrible at math and Ms. Morris is more than helpful. She is very accessible with after class and office hours. There is a lot of homework but that is how you get a concept to stick in your head. She gives partial credit back on wrong test answers when you show your work I will take her again in the near future for another required math class
Sweetest prof I ever met. No tests, and still learned the most in this class compared to all my others. Very understanding. Very down to earth. No complaints AT ALL. Very easy to pass
Professor Morris is extremely smart and apparently a big hit around PSC. She does go through the material fast. If you like Algebra or if you are good at it,I would recommend her. This is my 2nd time taking MAC1105 and I only made a "C" I found it really hard to keep up with her.
Teacher is good, and she does go through the example problems very fast, but her notes are good and she is helpful.
Her reviews for the tests are just like the tests, so if you do them you will do fine on her tests. She is a very sweet lady and has a lot of patience and will work with you if you have trouble.
Great teacher and very fair she does problems fast but just remind her to slow down. She knows her stuff and gives you the ingredients to have your stuff together to pass. I highly recommend her very sweet woman and cares for students.
Amazing teacher. Made me fall in love with the subject. She grades for process rather than answer correctness. So don't worry too much if you miss a + or a - on a question. She will catch it and give you partial credit. Shes really good at outside help if you're lost and you can go to her at any time.
Penny Morris is one of the best teachers I have ever had the pleasure of learning from. She gives you hints and shortcuts to remember the formulas. She made me actually like math. If you have the chance to take math in her class, do it! You won't be sorry!
Great teacher. Very hard class since it was a 6 week course.
I felt very wary about taking Statistics, until I took her class. She is very thorough with her lectures. Anyone needing Statistics, take Penny.
I was very nervous about taking stats bc all my life I have never been able to pass math with any grade higher than a C! Morris makes it so much easier! she hands out the exact questions you need to study for on the test and all test multiple choice along with being able to bring one cheat sheet you create! no confusion, no stress! I got an A!
Great teacher I just didn't learn the way she taught so I would go back in and teach myself the material using notes from class and online research. She was always willing to help though if needed. Turn in all quizzes on time as they are not accepted late. Homework is assigned but never graded or collected. The current textbook is of no help!
Ms. Morris was fabulous. She was always available to help when I needed after class help.
First I have to say that I gave her a 4, because she was better than average, but the class is definitely not an easy A. I am horrible at algebra and struggle to pass. She is a really good teacher and I wasn't as lost in her class as I have been in others. I didn't get an A, but I passed. I would have loved to take my other math classes with her.
She is wonderful! I enjoyed class and she was helpful and understanding.
Nice Professor. Wants everyone to succeed. Easy class. I suck at Math, but got an A. Taking next term for MAC1105.
I am terrible at math, but Professor Morris made it so easy to understand. Took her summer fast track course. She is so very kind and understanding which id taken all my previous math classes with her.
I am terrible at math & was very scared to take stats. She gives you everything you need to pass the class. You get one full page cheat sheet for tests which help A LOT. She shows you exactly whats on the tests & its multiple choice. You will have to study and understand the calculator but I definitely recommend Prof. Morris. & would take her again
I have taken Professor Morris for three classes: intro 1033, college algebra, and Stats. She has wonderful lectures. Quizzes will be given as a take home assignments. The math dept allows for Stats students to have a piece of paper with notes for tests in Stats. She is fast paced and knows math better than anyone! Don't skip class! Ask for help!
You will have 15 take home quizzes and chapter reviews for each test. She gives you every opportunity to pass. If you're not good in Math, take Penny!!!
I'm horrible at math but Morris Penny makes it extremely manageable. I recc. her without a doubt. You will have take home quizzes and you are allowed a cheat sheet for tests which definitely helps. You will definitely learn in this class. Don't worry about doing homework it doesn't help lol. And don't buy the textboo! Only need it if you do the hw.
I love Professor Morris, I have taken a total of three math classes with her and would take another if I needed. She is a professor that actually enjoys the subject and wants her students to understand. I think she makes math as enjoyable as it can be.
Ms. Morris is a super sweet lady, she goes over the criteria but she does suggest doing the homework because she replaces grades with it, so if you make a 67 on a test and 100 on the homework, you will make 100 on the 67 test.. She's easy to understand and definitely helps. No cheat sheets in my class, but eventually you get muliple choice .
Morris is hands down my favorite math professor. If you show up to class and put in little effort you will pass. She is super easy going and answers any questions during her lectures. In all, I would take her again.
I was afraid to take math, but after taking professor Morris I have a different view. She makes it easy . Her test are just like the review. She makes it easy to pass . Great professor I would definitely take her again.
I took this Professor for college algebra and statistics and she was fantastic. Don't worry about buying a text book, you will not need it. Homework is not mandatory and there is no point in doing it. The test reviews are just like the actual test, no surprises. She also gives take home quizzes which are easy. I recommend this professor.
Professor Morris is by far the best teacher I had at Polk! She made me love the subject. I can't stress enough how much of a great professor she is!
Penny will teach Algebra in an easy to learn matter, but I took in a 6 week format and it was kinda difficult to grasp it all so quickly. If you're an A student in math then this is a slam dunk, if not work at it and ask questions and you can get the grade you need. I got a B and went on to MAC 1147 (cal/trig) combined class (What AM I Crazy?)
This class it middle school algebra so it was very easy. I had a 101% going into the final and had to get a 53% to earn an A. She offers a lot of extra credit. If you are not good at math take this professor. Or better yet, take this class.
The class itself is pretty straightforward. You have tests/a final, but she has a couple extra things, like homework (which replaces your lowest test), and a project (which seems vague, but actually not too hard). I had a pretty easy time with the material, and I'm not the best at math. She really wants to help you succeed, and she's really sweet.
Professor Morris is one of the best professors I have had since I been at Polk. If you're not good in math then take her she offers extra credit replace your quiz grade with homework grade only if you completed the homework and made a 100 on it. I thought sure I passed this class with a C but I passed with an B . She is a wonderful lady.
Professor Morris really cares about her students. She is very caring and makes sure you understand the material. Highly recommended
I loved taking Morris penny, she gets that life is going on around. She works with you if you need to take a test before the test date, also gives amazing study guides for her tests and her quizzes are take home. I really don't have anything to complain about. Loved her 10/10 would recommend.
AMAZING lady!!!! she is awesome! I actually liked this math class. I would take her again if I ever need a higher math. She breaks it down so that it is easy to follow along. TAKE HER FOR SURE!
Works with you if you need something reworked. Quizzes come from test reviews. Easy to get a hold of. Taking her next for Stats.
Professor Morris is the one to take if you want to learn anything. She takes the time to go over anything that you don't understand. Helpful in any way and you do the homework you pass the class!
Very nice teacher, goes at a good pace. She takes the time to help everyone understand her lectures.
mrs. morris is really good about explaining things and not making you feel like an idiot for asking simple questions. she is willing to go over anything as many times as you need to and frequently goes over test review material more than once. tests come straight from the review. if you participate, you will pass. homework everyday.
Clear syllabus. Replace homework grade (if higher) for a test grade. Study guide for final. Makes math easy to understand. She cares about her students. Extra credit.
Best math professor I've ever had. I received an A and never have before in a math class. Gives partial credit on tests and extra credit. She drops your lowest test score. You definitely have to try, ask questions in class, and do your homework.
Professor Morris is a wonderful professor, she will drop 5 of your lowest quiz grades, 1 of your lowest test grades. She helps you by giving extra credit. I definitely would take her again. Her classes fill up fast because she is such a caring & understanding professor. Wish there were more professors like Prof. Morris!
Here is a honest review! She moves so fast & assumes you already learned some of it in intermediate algebra. I was lost and so was half my class. Her reviews are good but when she goes over it she goes over only a few then when you ask her to help you on one she quickly does it. If your bad in math I recommend someone who goes in depth she doesnt.
So i took a summer course and was sick for a week with a note from a doctor, a whole week of the course, and i go in the next week and she gives me the work i missed and tells me its due the next day, i do the work and go to turn it in and she says she does not take late work
Professor Morris was a wonderful teacher. You can tell she really cares for her students. I took her in class during the summer after failing a previous math class. Also, I might add, I SUCK at math so it was nice to have someone so helpful. It was easy to understand.
Penny Morris is the best math professor I have taken in a long time. She gives 15 take home quizzes where 5 are dropped and she gives around 6 tests where 1 is dropped and replaced with your highest 10 quizzes. She gives alot of hw for extra practice but it is optional. She is also super sweet, so if you ever need anything she will help you. Do it.
I signed up for Prof. Morris at the recommendation of another math professor (Orr). I felt like I taught myself. Practice problems are optional. Five question quizzes for homework. Drops five quiz grades and one test grade. She seemed put out to have to go over the study guides in class. Her teaching is going over problems in the textbook.
She is amazing and loved the way she teaches. She is extremely kind and will go over anything you didn't understand the first time. I was really able to master every chapter with her. I highly recommend.
SHE IS SO AWESOME TAKE HER! She really cares for her students and she gives extra credit sometimes! out of any math professor in Polk state, she is the best in my opinion and I had three! So go ahead take her, pass her and shine!!!
Math has NEVER been a strong suit of mine, however I worked my booty off for this class. With that being said, Professor Morris is BY FAR the most kind hearted professor I have EVER had. She will help you in seeing the amount of effort you put into her class. She's AMAZING. TAKE HER!!!!!
Overall good experience, she wants her students to be successful. Gives take home quizzes, lowest exam score is dropped and gives study guides that are very helpful
Professor Morris is an excellent prof. My final grade was a A. I took her for summer B 6 week course. It was a four hour class twice a week. She gives 15 quizzes and drops the lowest test. She goes really fast and teaches from the textbook. Her tests are really similar to the quizzes and she goes over any questions you have. I recommend taking her.
Professor Morris is a great Professor. She allow you to use notes on your tests. She also gives about 5 or 6 take home quizzes. She gives you the opportunity to get extra credit if you catch her in a mathematical error during class or if there is misspellings on the worksheets she give out. I would take her again
Professor Morris is a very sweet lady, who cares about her students; however, she assumes you already have knowledge on everything she covers.. Meaning, if you aren't particularly great at math, you'll find yourself struggling and having to teach yourself.. It's hard to fail her class, as she gives plenty of opportunities as others have stated.
Absolutely amazing professor. I was getting D's in high school math classes and with Prof. Morris I was able to bring that to an A+. She is kind, caring, and an overall amazing and underrated professor. I will be making a substantial effort to take her again. She is more than willing to help you out even when you don't necessarily deserve it.
One of my favorite professors ever.
Professor Morris honestly changed my life and my perspective on mathematics. Seriously, words cannot begin to describe the true gem of a person she is; she pours her heart out into her work and will do anything and everything to ensure that her students succeed in her class and beyond. She has such a natural gift for teaching. Please, take her.
Penny is an amazing professor. She will stay later after class to help with math problems. She assigns a lot of homework but it is not graded. Quizzes and tests are regular, but she is fair.
If you get the chance to take her, DO IT! she is a true gem, and truly cares about her students. If you do the work, you will get a good grade! Professor Morris is so understanding, and such a sweet lady. ugh I just love her!!!! TAKE HER!!
She is a nice person. I liked her class. But you really have to pay attention because she moves very fast and talks very low.
Penny Morris was by far my favorite professor! Math is not usually my strong suit but she made college algebra a breeze! She had a way of explaining material that was simple and easy to understand. She also loves to give out extra credit for class participation. I had a 108% in her class at one point. She is truly a one-of-a-kind teacher!
She only responds back to you if she really really needs to but other than that you have to rummage for answers yourself. I could sit here and complain about how much her class but overall I got the material done after lots of work. She doesn't give any extra credit or explain what you got wrong. This could class may be better to take in person.
Professor Morris is really caring and sweet. Took the class as FastTrack which wasn't so bad at all. Being in her class matters and her study guides are basically helping you with the test outline. Also, she drops one bad test grade and quiz. She will let you have a sheet of handwritten notes so cram it on a page, didn't do hw & still passed.
Mrs Morris is an angel! I took stats 2 times, W and F, Im terrible at math, but I wouldnt have passed the 3rd time without her. Ive taken her for MAT1033, MGF1106, & STA2023. Her lectures are so helpful! She doesnt use canvas often but she gives grading reports after every test. Lots of extra credit opportunities! Take notes on EVERYTHING.
Very fast. Doesnt give time to even write to problem before rushing through it. Jams as much work as possible in the time of the class instead of trying to help the students to understand the material. Chapter is two class days and then boom a chapter exam. Told her I would appreciate it if she would slow down and she recommended I drop the class
Super wholesome professor. Online textbook is optional though the homework and videos are in the textbook which count as extra credit (a lot). Her lectures are basically her doing problems from the textbook. Lectures pretty fast but will stop and help you if you have questions.
Tests are Multiple Choice, Lowest Test dropped. 6 Take home quizzes, one is dropped and average quiz grade becomes test grade. For Statistics u are allowed a sheet of HANDWRITTEN notes. The review is very similar to the test, sometimes the same questions are reused. However, to my surprise some questions on the final were not on the final review.
Professor Morris is a great professor! She teaches everything well, gives you lots of extra credit opportunities, and the class is not hard. If you do all the work you should get an A. She also is ready to help you with anything and quick to respond to emails. You cant be lazy, you have to put in the work, but its not a hard class.
I definitely recommend taking her. Sometimes she goes fast but if you say something she doesnt mind breaking it down and explaining. She has review for her tests(not all teachers do)which are just like the test questions. Im good at math but I feel like she explains everything so that even if it werent your best subject, youd do good.
Thanks to Professor Morris, a nightmare class was made simple, achievable, and not a disaster scenario. She outlined in every chapter what was essential to know, what concepts were going to be on the test, and how to solve those problems to get a good grade. There are many works and ideas that aren't on the tests. Take her class if it is open.
Please take her for College Algebra! She's an AMAZING professor. I would rate her a 10/5 if I had the chance to.
Very straightforward class. Professor Morris is very knowledgeable and makes the course content easy to understand. The lowest test is dropped, notes are allowed on tests, and there is plenty of review for each test. There are also a lot of extra credit opportunities, so an A grade is very much achievable.
10/10 would recommend her!! Lectures are held a few days a week-she uploads the videos to canvas. there's homework on MSL which is a little time-consuming but worth the points, and all the quizzes/tests are multiple-choice. Also, she is extremely accessible outside of the classroom and more than willing to answer questions.
Only graded on tests and quizzes. Lots of homework but not graded. She goes very fast during class and makes it difficult for students to follow along. Shows more that she can do the work rather than teaching others how to do it. Gives random bonus points sometimes. Nice and not hard to get a good grade if you show up and pay attention.
Took the accelerated intro to stats which consisted of 3.5-hour meetings. She ran through the content and the notes and did her best to teach through it. You can tell she's an incredible teacher, but she had so much content to go through in that time span. I personally wouldn't take the class if you struggle with math (like I did).
Professor Morris is a great teacher. She gives out random bonus points for little things and lets use notes on tests and the final exam. The only thing I would say I am not a big fan of is her going fast on the lectures she gives, because sometimes its hard to keep up. Overall she is a nice and caring teacher and understands us. Would recommend her
10/10 - Professor Morris is awesome! Lots of extra credit opportunities, always willing to help, quick response when emailed, notes are allowed on tests and final, lowest test grade dropped. If you get the chance to take STA 2023 with Professor Morris, please do.
After taking her for college algebra, I immediately took her for STATS 2023. All I have to say is that she's literally the BEST math professor at Polk. She's extremely kind and will make sure you pass her class. I HIGHLY recommend anyone who needs to fulfill their math pre-reqs with her. You won't regret it!! Tests are multiple choice as well.
Best math teacher you could ask for; very patient, explains well. She makes math look easy and math is not my strong suit. It is impossible to fail her class.
Very easy class. Goes over notes and gives a sheet of notes for tests. Everything is on paper and she gives extra credit for correcting her mistakes. Not the most entertaining, but she knows how to teach and gives you all the resources to be successful. Also bring your calculator, you'll need it.
The reason I chose Professor Morris is because I heard she gives a lot if extra credit and her class is easy. But none of that is true she failed me and now she messed up my gpa. Her test are very hard and the questions are very confusing. Don't recommend her to anyone now I have to retake this class again in summer 2024 with a different professor.
Very Easy class . She makes statistics easy to understand and provides various extra credit opportunities. She also allowed sheet of notes for quizzes.
If you struggle with Math, take her class. She provides you with so many resources and does a great job at explaining concepts. This was my last math class and ending it on a high was so rewarding.
Prof. Morris is the sweetest and most caring person ever! Her class was very easy, tests are easy as long as you study and do all of the homework on myopenlab. I recommend to take her, she explains math very well.
Professor Morris makes stats easy to understand. With plenty of extra credit and resources, this class is a breeze. unstuck ai is a great supplementary tool to ace the tests.
Lecture based with a few homework assignments each unit, not including reviews. Overall, solid professor and solid class.
Professor Morris's teaching was very easy to understand and straightforward. Sure she goes a little fast but as long as you're paying attention to what's said you'll do just fine. Her exams were also much easier than her homework which made maintaining your grade very easy. I'd definitely recommend taking her for College Algebra.
Mrs.Morris a nice person but she does not know how to teach properly. She gives insane amounts of homework for little time to complete it. There are lots of tests and she gives extra credit based on how many MISTAKES you point out. I pay attention to 5 classes a semester and I had at least 10 extra credit points.
Ms. Morris is an amazing teacher. I took her as a collegiate student, and she was respectful and considerate of possible things we may have outside of class. The homework isn't hard, but there is a lot of it. She moves quick in lectures, but it's not terrible. However, she responds quick outside of class and is happy to further explain something.
I took the trig/precalc combo class and it was a lot of studying and a lot of work but she explained concepts in a wonderful way. Homework was not a graded assignment, it was completely optional and based on if you wanted to do it or not but I wish I did it because I was struggling a bit at times without the extra help. I plan on taking her more.
Pro. Morris is one of the best Math Professors I have had. I was worried about STA2023 because of how word problem heavy the nature of the course is, but Pro.M showed us how to decipher and pick out necessary information. There isn't much homework and she gives plenty of study material for exams (notes, old test, ect.). Would definitely recommend!
If you are terrible at algebra pls take this class! Stats is so interesting and Prof. Penny was the sweetest. I never did a HW assignment and still ended the class with a 102%. You can use an entire page of notes for each test, and the tests are exactly like the study guides. Best Professor!!!
Amazing. I am terriable at math and she was so helpful. She explains in ways its easy to understand and cares that you know what your doing. A sheet 8x11 paper cheat sheet is allowed for tests. She gives review packets for the exams that are almost the exact same, just different numbers.
I hated this class so much. It felt like she was doing her homework, and we were just watching her. She DOES NOT know how to teach. I love math and I am good at it, but trig literally made me throw up due to stress. I am not joking, do not take this class. There are little to no resources for support.
Penny Morris is a wonderful teacher. She teaches through all the coursework, unlike some professors. Also, she makes sure to notify the students of campus activiities or events which I love the care that she gives to the class. Lastly, Penny Morris is super chill.
I took Mrs. Morris for both MAC1105 and STA2023. She's very good with algebra, but when it comes to stats, I'd say you're better off with someone else. She doesn't always explain things clearly and teaches a bit too fast. Fortunately, she does drop your lowest test score, which may save your grade a lot.
