Must attend class and it's 3 times a week...worth 5 credits though. She always does a "surprise" quiz before each test and it counts as extra credit for the test. Highly recommended.

I loved her. She's very sweet and will help you the best way she can. I highly recommend you don't skip class/reviews because math is hard enough. Your grade is mostly exams but she does give extra credit.

I really enjoyed this class. The professor is very interactive despite me taking it fully online. She keeps us updated daily on what to keep track of and responds to emails fast. All hw is open since the beginning of semester but do have due dates. Midterm and final are proctored and worth a lot, 30 and 40%z

Amazing professor. She explains very well and is generous with grading. She knows not everyone well do well on the exams so she will give you the opportunity to do some extra credit assignments. As long as you show effort and try in the class, she can bump up your grade. Really easy class overall if you actually study.

For MGF 1106, there is A LOT of homework, the tests are not that bad. Go over the lectures, slides, and review for the exams, DO THE HOMEWORK, and you're guaranteed an A. Prof. Alvarez is super sweet and kind. She is very understanding and will help you out at the end with your grades. I would recommend.

Probably the best math teacher you can get at MDC. She gives you 4 tests and an optional final exam. Homework and Attendance are not part of your grade. Her lectures cover everything you need to know for the test. She grades very lightly. She grades you on whether or not you understand how to get to the answer, not if you get the answer correct.

Super sweet and caring professor! However, as someone who struggles with math, her resources to learn the material were useless. YouTube videos made it so much easier to understand than her slide show. Warning though, this is my 2nd math course. All math courses require you to pass midterms and finals with at least a 60% or else you fail completely

Im still taking MAC 2311 with Professor Rosany Alvarez and was really disappointed. The study guides helped a little She grades very harshly, make sure not to make no mistakes There's no curve, and all the exams are written,Dont mess up I also noticed that she seemed more lenient with Hispanic students but was tougher on others, which felt unfair.

She's overall amazing she knows how to teach for those who struggle with math in general, if you need help she will explain it over and over again till you understand it. Homework isn't a grade, and the study guides are really similar to the test. I would take her again if I could for calc 2 and 3. One of the best math teacher I've had in MDC.

Professor Alvarez is one of the best MDC online professors, some argue about the way she teaches, but! Since day 1 the syllabus stated that there would only be 2 proctored exams, all multiple choice! Homework is online, all due at the end of the semester except modules and quizzes due every 2 weeks. If you struggle at math take her. No extra credit

As someone who struggles with math, professor Alvarez made it very easy. I asked many clarifying questions and went to office hours; she was always willing to help. She provided a study guide for every exam for extra practice, included the annotated version of the lectures via canvas, and gave many extra credit opportunities. She was very caring.

She is an AMAZING professor. Her lectures are very clear and her way of teaching works the best for me, very calmed and organized. The questions on the tests are fairly easy, very similar to the ones on the study guides that she gives. She also gives extra credit opportunities. Don't miss the chance to take her!
