she's the worst Math teacher you will have to teach yourself everything and she's not helpful. she's the biggest "****" stay away from her
Let me put this review in simple form for you all. She is: Mean, Rascist, Does not care if you pass or fail, Very picky on your misktakes when she grades quizes and exams, Take points off for every single thing,Not available for help, and will try her best to give you lowest grade. DONT TAKE HER, BE AWARE (HAZARD)
she goes out of her way to give u advice on how to study better for her test. if u fail more than one test u have to take the final. and if u do all the homework and the worksheets she hands out, you'll do fine. o yea...and u have to really apply yourself and go to the math lab!!!
"You should know how to do this ...." man did she say that a lot!!! I passed the class because I got a ton of help from the math lab. If you want to teach yourself she is the prof. for you!
her test even if you get the right answer you get marked off for the smallest things. She comes off as a cold person.
I love math and I'm EXTREMLY good at it and thats why I passed with an A! but there were many others who didnot pass because this teacher will not help you at all. she expects you to already know everything. she is EXTREMLY picky and is rude and will not help you what so ever. if you would like to learn math on your own then go right ahead. if you
She is the worst prof i have ever seen. Very mean, rude, disrespectful, will treat u like****. Extreamly hard n tough on grading. Takes points off for smallest mistakes. Dont answer ur questions. 4 tests n quiz everyweek. Take final if u fail one of test. I passed the class after workin hard with an A n she was pissed Overall: Worst math teacher.
I passed because I love math and worked really hard. She was no help at all, but if your fast at math like me you would get it snap snap. But for the not so math students she will not slow down for you at all
I think the class is easy however a lot find it hard? I like how she goes fast (since im a fast learner) but if it takes a while for you to get something then I wouldnt reccomend this teacher. she goes REAL fast (which i love!)
I would recommend this teacher to anyone! She is very helpful and makes everything crystal clear on what needs to be done. She's great I wish I could have her as a teacher for every class!
I love mrs. Wilson!!! she is like the best math teacher ever :) all u have to do is so your homework and you are guaranteed to get an "A" on your test! i would most definitely recommened her to everyone :)
Wilson is a teacher who basically DOESN'T TEACH! I paid good money to take this class to learn Algebra only to have classmates and lab instructors be more helpful than she is. Why she is still allowed to teach, I have no idea. What I do know is that half my class hates her and/or has withdrawn from class. Poor uneducated teaching at it's worst.
Rose Wilson is a strong example of everything that is wrong with the educational system in our college curriculum for students eager to learn and ask questions. Not only is she a rude lady( I refuse to call her a teacher since she doesn't teach), but also a poor excuse of a person diminishing the occupation we know of as, 'Teacher'. Do not take.
Rude, uneducated in the ways of actual teaching, this lady (I refuse to call her a teacher because she doesn't teach) makes the lesson difficult to understand. What makes me mad is that she's bucking the education system and still getting paid for minimum work. Why P.B. State College keeps her and pays her reflects upon the college.
She really is not a nice person. She says rude things. If you ask her a question, she belittles you in her answer. She doesnt speak english and comes up with these stupid cutesy names like the cheerleader functions. She's all about group work and takes it too far sometimes. Bottom line, STAY AWAY.
love her class :)
She's a great teacher All you have to do is listen to her in class follow the instructions and practice you're exercises all the time and you will get an A for her class
This "teacher" is the most pathetic excuse for a professor I have ever witnessed as a student at 6 different schools worldwide. Concerning questions, she was rediculous when answering them where are she did was try to demean the student rather than helping. She never explained anything well where I would actually learn from Alvin in the math lab.
Very rude. Does not explain anything. If you have a question about the work ask a fellow class mate because she will not help you. She will ask you how you think it is done. And then if you still can't get it, it was apparently because you weren't paying attention. Horrible teacher, and likes to make fun of her students.
I can see why there are many that dislike her, but she is not horrible, yet she is not so great either. She has a kind of "my way or the highway" way of teaching. I learned most of the material by practicing with the homework, since she is no help at all when you ask her a question, your best bet is to head to the math lab. Overall, very mediocre.
She spoke English. I don't know what that was about, but the homework was overwhelming. Even if I did well on homework the problems took hours to do and went the hard way. Example is, "Peter does 1/4 of the work. How much of the work does Bill do?". The normal person says duh! 3/4 but you have to spend two pages of equations to come up with the answer. All my other classes suffered cause this one took so much time for nothing and dragged me down.
i took her online and for some reason she makes this class so hard. to received an A in this class you need a thousand points. she believe that people don't have other classes other than her own. i struggled to pass this class, but i would never recommended to anyone. i am an A and B student, but i would never take her if i had to do this again.
Some of the comments about this professor are laughable. To the one bleow that claims they've been to 6 universities around the world; how did you end up at Palm Beach State College? LOL. This professor does what she is required for an intermediate algebra course. All objectives are clear and concise and she is there to guide you to success.
I absolutly loved this PROF. This was my 3rd attempt (took it twice in PBG) and failing again was not an option. She taught highschool so she knows how to break the work down for ur understanding. MUST DO HOMEWORK TO PASS TEST! COMPLETE PRACTICE test as what to expect on actual test. Mathlab visits earn you EXTRA credit. APPLY urself & u will pass!
I Took her for Intermediate and then College Algebra and she was great! She helped you learn the math. And you get extra creit everytime you go to the math lab. Shes an awesome teacher!
From someone who hasn't been the best in math courses, i have to say Professor Wilson is a great teacher. She gives extra credit for going to the math lab. She has a good sense of humor and is willing to help you outside of class if you still need help. I strongly recommend her. She also drops one test. She is worth taking!
limited text book use, buy the book only if you need to. only grades tests. the tests are exactly like the homework, so if you do the homework and understand it, youll do fine. she doesnt collect homework nor classwork. gives extra credit. if your not into homework but your good at passing tests THEN YOUVE JUST FOUND THE PERFECT TEACHER.
She teaches realy, really fast. She kind of expects you to know what she's talking about. She drops one test and one quiz grade. Doesn't collect the homework. Gives extra credit but you have to attend the math lab. Teaches past the time your supposed to get out of class. If you don't do the homework you won't pass the class.
Absolutely LOVE THIS TEACHER & STYLE of teaching. 1st math instructor to help me understand the fundamentals of math, she will even sing a song to help u remember, & she requires class participation to make sure you understand material. HOMEwork is essential for passing test. Will drop lowest test score & quiz. Apply urself cuz u cant FLY threw
nice teacher,but if your not good at tests DONT take this class.homework everyday but doesnt count for a grade.if you want to pass do the the homework.
She will cover absolutely everything in 1h15 but you have to follow as this class is pretty hard. She does expect her student to do their home work but they are not mandatory. She will drop one test out of 4, the final 5th test will not be dropped. Extra credit for attendance at the math lab. I spent days there and it paid.
Teaches WAY TOO FAST.
She rushes when she teaches and shes not very helpful. I would say that i probably wouldve done better if I did the homework because the tests are EXACTLY like the homework. I realized too late that if you dont do the homework you really WILL NOT pass. probably gonna have to take this class again over the summer. sucks for me.
Took her for college algebra. I love math, and have for a really long time, she made everything difficult and never took questions from the class. Talked to us like we were in middle school, and was never helpful. Sent everyone to the math lab if they had questions. I got a B, but struggled immensely the whole way. DO NOT TAKE HER!
I came into her class thinking that she was going to be hard as hell with me since it was...college algebra. I got an A in that class. She is a great teacher. You get extra points towards your tests if you go to the math lab and do the homework! She uses problems from there on the tests. Just study the homework and you'll be good :)
i loved Prof. Wilson. her teaching style is if you pay attention in class, do the HOMEwork, and study; then you will pass. you HAVE to attend class to understand. she teaches about 2 sections every class day, so its important that you attend. overall, i loved her, and im taking her again for college algebra.
For a person like me who is not very good at math my advice is to not take her class! I had to withdraw because even with the help of the math lab i still didnt understand. Theres only like 4 exams and tons of h.w that she doesnt even check. Her teaching style is not a helpful one in my opinion. Good luck and make the right decision on this class!!
idk why she has a bad rating. she was very helpful and gave supporting notes for all examples. I took online and did so awesome after failing over the summer. I highly recommend her online course.
Professor Wilson is a teacher for those who have a good grip on math. For people like me who sometimes struggle, I would not recommend her. Her teaching style puts people on the spot and makes you uneasy during class. No extra credit unless you have hours to spend in math lab; no reviews. If you don't do homework YOU WILL FAIL. Never again.
I had to pass this class on my third attempt. Oh my god was i nervous to take a class online that i failed twice in. to be honest it isnt as bad as i thought it be. you just need to keep up with your work and your fine. also get a friend who is good at math to help you. it takes of pressure! =) recommend online vs. class!!!
I would recommend anyone that has to take this class to avoid this professor at ALL COST! She is NOT helpful at all and moves at a very fast pace. She's great at making you feel stupid when you ask questions in class. She grades VERY HARD on tests and you have to be in the math lab nearly every day to come close to passing. DO NOT TAKE HER!!!!!!!
This woman is a nasty, nasty person. She is unhelpful and just flat out rude. She does not consider the DROP/ADD period for students who come into her course "late" through no fault of their own. The college offers this first week so we can change courses. Added it the final day of DROP/ADD and dropped it the same day, glad I did w/these reviews!!!
Remember in high school when the teacher would call on kids that didn't raise there hands? Well this is that teacher. You get 1 point per hour you spend in the math lab, so if you actually want those points to count you better live there. She always goes by the math book which is good. Seemed to take pride that over half her class was failing.
I was weary of taking her class but she wasn't too bad. She's kind of weird/introverted but nice. I'd advise going to the math lab, she'll only explain so much in class and has a limit on questions. I had her for 2 classes, 1st Int. algebra, got a C cuz I didn't take advantage of the extra credit. The math lab and the extra credit will help lots!
The way she used my math lab really helped. I have never done so well in a college math class. She is really funny too.
she is nice. but she doesn't really teach the lesson she excepts you already know it. fair grader. mymathlab is where home work & quizzes are done it helps a lot.
I am in her online class right now and I am writing this just to save someone else the headache this class has been. She is extremely confusing the way that she has everything set up. She is really unorganized, and extremely rude and unhelpful. She doesn't teach, doesn't care, makes things way more confusing/difficult then they should be
This is the worst "teacher" ever. I am taking 3 other online classes right now and the way hers is set up is soo confusing everything is all over the place and she is rude when you ask her a question. andthe "online group projects" are annoying and unfair, everyone gets the same grade. take someone else if you can!!
She is a really good teacher! the first week is tough because theres a lot to get used to, but once you see how everything works her style is actually really helpful! you just have to really study the syllabus the first week and it gets easier to understand the pattern. She's a good math teacher, i'd recommend her for sure
you have to stay in touch with her the first couple weeks to make sure you understand how the class works, but once you get the hang of it, it's a really good class!perfect class for someone who can work independently.
Nasty and RUDE..AVOID her!!! Makes you feel stupid with any questions you may have! NEVER again!
don't take her she not friendly and teaches to fast, the way she teaches is like you should already know the work. doing the online homework teaches you better than she does I regret taking her and im not so good in math so im in trouble
I took Prof. Wilson's express Int. Algebra class during Summer A. I am generally not too good at math but I managed to do well in this class. She writes out clear notes and tells you exactly what will be on the test. The homework is pretty much the exact same thing that's on the test. I am taking her again in the fall.
Professor Wilson is by far my favorite professor at Palm Beach State College. She is very engaged in teaching her students and makes sure every one is ready for upcoming tests. Even though she is a great professor however, you must do the homework to pass the class! After all, comprehension is the point of math!
Amazing teacher
Took this class online. The only complaint i had is that the extra credit was hard to get - It was a practice test online, the only way to get the extra credit is to get 80% or higher, its 40 questions. For someone who struggles with math I wasn't able to get any extra credit and why would someone who can get 80% on the test need the extra credit?
She clearly states that there is no extra credit in her course. She teaches pretty fast . She doesn't like when you ask a lot of questions. If you don't like math like how I don't like math you will get another professor .
Wasn't too fond of her at first, she can be very rude toward students. A lot of homework but it's online. Tests aren't really hard. I passed with an A but I think that's because I'm good at math. Do the homework and you'll be fine, it's the same kind of questions as the quizzes just different numbers.
Very rude and not a good teacher. She just says shes been doing this for twenty years with everything. My middle school teacher knew more math. She seems to know only way to do everything and if you dont do it her way, its wrong. One of the worst math teachers ive ever had. I shouldve continued taking courses in high school instead of PBSC.
I took this class as an express class. I'm terrible in math but I managed to get an A. She can come off quite rude, and she makes you work for the grade, but she goes step by step making the material easy to learn. Do the homework, attend class, and you'll do fine. Plus if you go to mathlab she'll give you extra credit.
Great teacher! I would take her again for sure! Extremely helpful. As long as you go to class and do the homework you will have an easy A.
She really is a great teacher. I took her for an online summer class and I had taken her for intermediate algebra in the past, she is very organized and clear. You have a chance for extra credit on every test by getting an 80 or higher on the practice test and can take it as many times as you want, which helps for the actual exam, good teacher
BY FAR THE BEST PROFESSOR I'VE EVER MET. Genuinely a nice caring person and wants to make sure everyone gets it. She def uses my math lab and its okay because it gives you a lot of help. It's so simple to show up to class, take notes, participate, and do your homework. Her tests are easy, straightforward, & not surprising as in you did it in the HW
At first I was nervous taking this class, I thought it was extremely hard at the beginning I was ready to withdrawal but towards the end of the class she gave so much extra credit and the final was easy that my D went all the way u to a B. Thumbs up
Very smart teacher. She sometimes assumes that you can remember everything from College Algebra, making it difficult to follow what she is doing. I don't like the method of using mymathlab but it was doable. She is very strict with her policy and provides no hint on any of the test. You have to do your homework in order to keep up.
online homework
Professor Wilson is a nice teacher. She can be cool and chill, depends on her mood sometimes. Intermediate Algebra is an easy class for me so I didn't find it so hard. You do have to do online work from MyMathLab to get extra points but that's easy. Other than that shes good.
Prof. Wilson actually teaches but she goes fast. There's four tests which are in class and they are tricky along with the final and 4 quizzes that are online. Homework was due the day of the test and it was also online. The only great thing was that she offered opportunities for 25 extra credit points and that there was an SI. Math lab helped too.
Professor Wilson is an OK teacher. If you want to pass you have to work for it. Since intermediate algebra isn't that hard of a class, i passed with an A but her testes can get really tricky. Other than that, its up to you and how much effort you put in the class.
she didn't help me a lot but ok .....
Professor Wilson is pretty decent. She speeds through her lectures but it helps that there's always an SI. Her tests can be a little tough but if you do the practice tests on MyMathLab it'll help you a lot. Will give up to 25 extra credit points. Four quizzes, four tests, and the hw isn't due until the day of the test. Don't miss class.
RUN, DON'T DO IT!!! There are other professors @PBSC that are more understanding of students when it comes to learning difficult math concepts like in pre-calc. Prof. Wilson can be very condiscending sometimes which sucks. That class was basically a self teaching class, you can do better with an online course.
Great teacher!!! I would take Prof. Wilson again in a heart beat! She teaches I said TEACHES. She has you get involved in class and makes sure every student is understanding the material if not she will help you! Trust me she is a great teacher and truly cares about her students. Plus she has a sense of humor!!
Professor Wilson is a great teacher if you truly pay attention. Took her for a 6 week precalc course & it wasn't impossible. Do the homework and practice tests. If you really understand college algebra, you should be fine since the entire first half of precalc is college algebra. If math isn't your best subject, I would pick a different professor.
This teacher is horrible!!! I would ask questions and she would just keep talking and looking elsewhere. Thank goodness we had an SI because thanks to him I passed the class. This professor is careless, mean and looks at you like youre stupid all of the time. Looks irritated and annoyed all the time as well. Class wasnt that bad.
This professor has a TACHY PACE of TEACHING if you're trying to learn problem solving and critical thinking. She expects memorization. Also she take points off for so many mistakes; even when the answers right or you miss a step. She really doesn't like stopping for questions, so your lost. Also very sarcastic w/ every dilemma. NO MAKE UP BTW!!!
Terrible Professor, She does NOT want to help you pass and my class did not even have an SI. I had to drop the class so it would not mess up my GPA. She expects you to know everything from College Algebra, but in reality none of what she expects is from College Algebra.
This professor is not bad if you are already good at math. She will encourage you to drop her class if you show any signs of weakness in math which was ultimately the thing that rubbed me the wrong way about her. She is a tough grader. :( Answers have to be 100% right.
So you know my GPA before this class was a 3.8 so i'm not one of the slacker types that's upset over a bad grade because i didn't put in an effort. That being said, DO NOT take this professor! She is a very tough grader and expects you to know the material already. You'll practically be on your own in this course and gives way to much H.W.
Really solid professor to choose. She is great and her lessons are easy to understand if you really try. Mymathlab becomes bothersome after a while but if you work hard she will help you understand everything. She may seem intimidating at first but she is Very nice and likeable if you get on her good side. She may even make jokes with you.
Always go to class! She can teach 2 lessons in one class period! First math teacher since high school that helped me understand the most! DO ALL MY MATH LAB! she stresses about the homework
Honestly I am very smart when it comes to math I actually enjoyed the subject very much, but this professor is terrible do not take her. I am failing because she does not know how to teach. Grades terribly and some what of a rude person.
probably one of the worst professors ive ever had. treats you as if you are still in MIDDLE SCHOOL. doesnt understand we are grown adults, speeds through lessons and throws you into groups so your partners can basically teach you.
She gives a maximum 25 extra credit points, which could really help your grade in the long run. She relies on MyMathLab for her homework. If you don't understand something she will take the time to help you. She goes over the tests after taking them, write down those notes, you'll need them for the final. Overall amazing teacher. Taking her again!
I love her classes! I always understand all the exercises because we have the MathLab, worksheets every class and also a SI leader that give to us many solutions of a problem and before every test we do a review.
Professor Wilson can be a tough professor but it was worth every second. She pushed me to be the best I can be. Shes a tough professor but I wouldn't be getting my moneys worth if it were easy. As long as I did the work and extra credit I was fine. I got a 97 in that class.
All her tests are not multiple choice, but she gives partial credit to the questions. In class she goes fast with the teaching, and can get hard to keep up.
Prof. Wilson is great at what is does. She goes over the question in multiple ways so you can find what works for you. She used the textbook a lot when i had her but it helped a lot. A LOT of homework but you have until the day of the test to complete it and its great practice. She is really understanding and wants her students to succeed. Effort!
Squelches curiosity. Invariably rewards questions with a condescending attitude, often without an answer. If you want to know more about the subject she's teaching you on a particular day (or even the name of it), don't expect an answer.
Condescending and rushed through the lectures. Most of the class time you were in assigned groups and your basically relied on your group partners to help you or essentially learn what she just taught if you didn't understand the material. Homework was ok, but some of the material she taught was not on the homework.
do the homework in my math lab, before lectures. you should know the material before you get to class. she teaches in review but i enjoyed the class. it was just tough enough that i could not slack. if you know the material you will fly threw with ease if not she gives you different sources to learn. do the work get the A
OMG! This teacher is literally THE WORSE!! Really tough grader and don't really try to help her students. She's just a no for me... if you ready to catch that L take her.
I survived this class. The reason I survived this class was thanks to her extra credit. Hard subject, not for quitters and lazy.
Fantastic teacher, really helps you learn and retain material. Express class so it was VERY difficult, so you must devote TIME to this class if not familiar with Algebra. Gives plenty of extra credit (go to Math lab, promotes learning/practicing properly) rather than just random extra credit. Homework heavy. Very straight forward with expectations.
A good teacher. The class was an easy A for me. She goes a little fast but for me I did just fine. I brought the textbook everyday. Only homework is on MyMathLab which can get annoying but it is great for reviewing the day before the test. If you understand upper level Algebra then this class should be just fine for you!
Great teacher. If you like things to be done systematically, she's the teacher for you. Tough grader, but she tells you how she wants her answers to be written in her test during her lectures. Extra credit is always available for up to 25 points, and she usually has an SI in class for extra help for the students.
Took her for MAT1033C and aced that class, so I decided to take her again. College Algebra is a lot harder than Intermediate Algebra, but she was very clear and thorough when teaching us the material. You do have to do lots of homework, so you have to put in the work but overall great class.
One of the hardest math classes I've ever taken. The lectures seem fast because the class is short, but she made the most of our time and was easy to follow along with the lecture. Lots of homework, but doing the homework was very helpful when studying for her tests. She gives extra credit too, so there is a chance to boost your grade.
Heres the thing, she gives so much homework, so if you're full time in class, and have work, picking her is a bad option. for example each week theres 2 0r 3 homeworks contain 40 questions each homework plus quiz. Every single week!those hw are only 2 points. she's very tough grader and will not let you do any retake no matter what. No excuses!
Professor Wilson is a great professor. Teaches the material very clearly. What she teaches in class is what is on the test, so there are no surprises. Lots of opportunity to earn extra credit.
Professor Wilson is one of the best professors I've had the pleasure of having. She's very helpful and she's always available when needed. I would go during her office hours and do my homework there and she would help me very patiently. She has group work during class, so you'll always have the help of your classmates. AWESOME PROFESSOR!!
An amazing profesor:) she gives you enough time to do your homework, and explain everything a way you will understand. More importantly she gives extra credit. If you study and ask for help you will definitely pass.
Entirely unreasonable. Institutes the strictest no-makeup policy of any teacher I have ever taken. DO NOT take this professor if you have an actual adult life that sometimes interferes with your ability to perform academically. She is unreasonable, doesn't understand or relent, and won't have any of it. Harsh and unforgiving. Condescending.
She doesn't explain anything at all. When asked to explain it makes no sense at all. Her handwriting is sloppy so when taking notes they don't make sense either. I never recommended to beware of a professor until now.
This was my first dual enrollment course that I took and I took and online and overall she was fair and easy teacher. She gave lots of opportunities to redo assignments. For example, she offers 3 attempts for quizzes and she will take the highest grade and she will offer unlimited attempts at homework questions. Some weeks the assignments were long
Took online during summer (12 weeks). For Test 1 and Test 2 it was mandatory to take at a TESTING CENTER, after that all tests were online. This is a self-taught class with online videos and examples to help. There is a lot of homework weekly but it is unlimited attempts until the due date. Also, the quizzes you re given multiple attempts.
This was my third attempt, I was thinking of not taking it due to the comments posted BUT thank god I did. The first two test are required to be taken in a testing center after that you take your quiz and test anywhere. She does remind you when work is due. I failed twice before with a D now got a B could of been a A had i put a bit more work in.
I took Prof. Wilson for a online class for College Algebra. She made it very clear what was expected from it&there was no loophole. She gave ample time to get assignments and tests done. She was very good at reminding us when assignments were due and she was available to speak with most of the time. She also gives extra credit towards the end
She does not explain anything and when you ask questions she talks to you like you are stupid. By far the worst math professor I have ever had.
Very good teacher, teaches well, helps you understand if you dont get it the first time, overall good teacher, I wanted to take her for another math class next year actually
Shes a good teacher, but i wish she would explain things a bit more clearly instead of just rushing through the lessons.
She was a good professor, but if you are not really good at math I recommend you to take someone else since she doesn't go really into depth about every chapter. She kinds just goes through them quickly, i like math so it wasn't too bad for me.
Professor Wilson is the best math teacher you can take! I took her for college algebra and pre-calculus and she's amazing. She knows how to explain difficult concepts very well, she gives out extra credit , she's very caring on how you do. She is more than willing to stay after she's one with her classes to help you with anything. The best teacher!
I have taken her for every college math course up to Liberal Arts Math, the last math course required for Cyber Security BAS at PBSC. I have received an A in all 3 with her. She will help you office hours if you need help understanding the material, just make sure you don't go before lunch time go earlier to see her. Do your homework you will be ok
She really strict.. the way I passed was from doing mymathlab they way she teaches is pretty fast it would be better if she broke down the work more.. you can have or use your phone out in class cause she gets mad and DO NOT TAKE HER MORNING CLASS IF YOUR NOT A MORNING PERSON.... shes ok but she can be better with the teaching
Wilson is indeed the worst teacher you could have ever chosen. She is very disrespectful, and will encourage you to drop her class after first test fail. She is very quick and will not stop to help you if you dont understand the materials. Shed look at you as if you were dumb , if you have questions and your hands should not be raised. Very tough
She is a caring and great professor. She gives you a lot of opportunities for extra credit and she gives group quizzes. Her test arent too bad if you study and do your mymathlab homework. She will help you if you don't understand. She's kinda funny and really nice. PAY ATTENTION. If math isn't your strongest subject she will help you.
Very tough grader. Would not recommend
Very professional and easy to work with
A lot of homework. I would recommend this class for a semester, not in summer. You would need to put a lot of effort and time into this course. Midterm and final are required in a test center. Her lectures are relevant to the assignments. tough subject, but great professor!
The class is going to require a lot of work, but that is the nature of the class. If you do all the assignments on MyMathLab and actually use the "help me solve" thing, you can easily solve all the questions using the steps they give you. Taking the class online was easy for me because the last half of the tests you take at home and you can cheat.
this class is basically figuring it out on your own. She doesn't even use her own videos to teach you the lessons but from other professors. She does not grade anything besides the discussion in which is pointless because she doesn't point out your mistakes if you got it wrong. And she assigns a lot of work. Find another professor!!!!!!!!!!!!
She is VERY repetitive when she teaches new material. A lot of group work, if you do not like working in groups do not take her. You need the textbook really for the code but she does problems in the book but very little and will tell you to bring it everyday. Overall class is easy just show up and learn.
It was easy for me because math is my best subject. For someone who isn't that good at math this class isn't the right fit. She goes through lessons way too quick. She makes it seem and feel like she hates her job. Many students are too scared to ask for help and she looks at you like your stupid if you saying you don't understand something.
As an intermediate class for algebra she doesnt help you learn at all. She rushes through her lessons just to put you in groups with other students that dont know what to do either. Dont plan on missing any class otherwise you will get zeros in the grade book. Also if you ask her questions in class she makes you seem dumb for not knowing.
Professor Wilson is so knowledgable. This course is difficult but she is always there to help when needed. She has a clear schedule, which clearly states when the homework is due, and when there are quizzes or tests. She is really nice and will help and can clarify information very well. I would 100% take her again.
Professor Wilson has a clear outline of test dates and she usually sticks by them, her lectures can be confusing at times, but her office hours are very accessible and shes very kind. It's not an easy class and you need to work for your grade, but she does equip you well, do the homework and test review and you should honestly be fine.
I would say dont take her she is so mean and docent care what your going through
Professor Wilson is direct but not hands on. The lectures are in MyMathLab and from the 90s so the videos are weird. I would recommend a tutor because I needed one for some of it. The quizzes and tests are all online and she drops the worst test and worst quiz. You have weekly homework, quizzes, later practice test. Better than a bad professor.
She uses the MathLab which is very heavy on homework, quizzes, practice test AND regular testsits just an insane amount of work. a lot of work for a prof that is counting on software that grades everything for hermade it easy on her but hard on her students. The only good thing is that the homework gives you multiple chances to fix your score
I am not the strongest at math, however professor rose made this class manageable and the fact that it was online I felt like i was on campus. Her assignments were understandable and it aided with the learning process. I got a B because i missed a test due to family emergency. she also gave a chance to redo some assignments with a mark reduction
If youre not good at math DONT take her class!! She moves super fast expecting you to know what youre doing. Doesnt teach how to solve problems just makes you figure it out. She says to ask questions but when you ask she makes you feel dumb. I wouldnt recommend if youre slow either. Shes really strict always serious.
This professor consisted of hours of work each week. It was not that hard but it was VERY time consuming.
I would not recommend this teacher to anyone with a busy schedule. All assignments, quizzes, and tests are on MyMathLab. There's about 2-4 assignments and a quiz every week. Quizzes only consist of 10 questions. When taking Quizzes, practice tests and Tests it requires to be on lockdown, thankfully no camera. Textbook can be found in MyMathLab
Pros: Easy to get an A if you put the time in Kind teacher Mymathlab is a good platform Many tools to help you learn how to solve problems Easy content teacher responsive to emails Cons: Lots of homework, quizzes and tests. Takes time Lockdown browser (my nemesis) Discussions seemed unnecessary and time consuming.
For a math teacher she is very understanding and offers a lot of opportunities to do well in the class. I missed one test and that was no problem because she drops the lowest grade of one test and one quiz at the and of the semester. I have never done so well in a math class before. She's great!
A lot of hw each week but I expected and appreciated it because it helped me practice all the concepts that were on the quizzes and tests. A few times the prof. lecture vids didnt cover everything that was on the hw but there is a show me an example option that helps break down problems & power points. Extra credit & drops lowest test & quiz.
She wasnt too bad but being that the class was on blackboard it did irritate me that she wasnt as understanding to showing how to create certain graphs on snip it. Other then that do your work on time and dont give up.
Definitely not a helpful teacher. I took her online thankfully that was my only saving grace since I could work at my own pace and look to online for help. Otherwise I can imagine an in-person class being far worse for this teacher. Dont recommend unless you take her online and you do ALL of your homework and extra credit opportunities to pass.
She is awful. Please Please Please do not take her. Her online lectures suck, she gives a lot of homework and has no sympathy for students. We have to do discussions on Canvas which makes no sense in a Math class. If you want to ruin your college experience only then take her.
I am terrible at math and I got a B. Professor Wilson made it very easy for me to pass, work hard on the Homework, practice and do your best on the tests and quizzes and you will do well. It was a bit of HW.
Her online class is HORRIBLE, my email was flooded with the same copy pasted emails from her at least 10 times for each assignment, and her rules as far as camera setup are absolutely ridiculous. Could not imagine having to deal with this woman in person, god bless anybody who does.
I took this class because it was a lot faster to take MAC1147 rather than the other options. Safe to say, if I was not as good as I am in math I would NOT have passed this class. She is very condescending and makes you feel dumb whenever you ask a question. it is a lot of homework and the quizzes/tests are often. Do not take unless necessary.
Professor Wilson is a respectable woman who made it clear on the first day of class of what to expect in this course. As long as you are willing to dedicate time into studying and come prepared to class by printing out the notes ahead of time you will be fine. Participation is big in her class as you will be called on to help fill out the notes.
This professor is rigorous. The class has a lot of tests and homework every week. She does not round grades (She refused to round my 79.9% to 80%). She struggles to simplify topics and never finishes her lectures. She always ran out of time and expected students to learn the rest by themselves. I would not retake her. She can have an attitude too.
Professor Wilson gives students everything they need to succeed! Even if you are bad a math, you will get a good grade in this class! Not a ton of HW, just stay on top of things and you'll be alright. Drops lowest test and quiz grade. Lots of extra credit opportunities.
Gives out a lot of homework which takes hours to do at hand. After each homework, you must complete a quiz. Every exam you take you have about an hour to do but it takes more time to complete. Mandatory tutoring is obliged even if you understand the material if you don't do it your grade will plummet.
She is almost never available within her office hours, and has an attitude when communicating with students. Extremely tough and random grading criteria, and will nitpick each detail of one student's work and not another. The class itself wasn't too difficult, study the material and you'll be ok. I relied HEAVILY on classmates for help.
Please do yourself a favor and do not take this proffesor. She uses lockdown browser for her quizzes and tests. If she does not see you at all times on camera, she fails you. Every week you get a test. If you ask for her help, all she does is send you to tutoring and does not attempt to help you. This was THE most stressful math class I've taken.
Her class is so simple. The practice test is the same as the test, but with different numbers. I would take her again and again. She made me love Math. If you want an easy A without doing any work, don't take her.
This professor is one of the best math teachers I had so far. I struggle with Math a lot and this professor has been very helpful. She gives you many chances and extra credit and is willing to accommodate your needs which is not very common with other math professors. Overall, I would take her again for my other classes.
Does not respond to emails, does not respond to comments on assignments, confusing about due dates.
You would think that you wouldn't do any writing for a math class. With this professor, that couldn't be wrong anymore. It's frustrating when I sign up for a math class but have to write reflections/discussion posts EVERY WEEK as if the homework wasn't already super long. She uses lockdown unless you take your tests on campus in the testing centers
She is very strict with lock down browser and has to see every inch of your workspace, screen, desk, and face/arms/hands/upper chest, otherwise she will give you a 0%, expect 4-8 assignments a week with a test every other. I needed help setting up my camera and went on zoom, she was very condescending and rude, kicked me out at the end too. DNR
She gives extra credit and allows late work with only a deduction of 10% 1 time. She's strict about tests: she does tests on lockdown browser with a webcam. And she emails you at least 2 times a day. I took a different class, and she made this class seem way easier than the other professor, but it's a hit or miss taking her class, so be mindful.
Do not take this teacher unless you want to fail. It's not worth the damage to your GPA. There are 5 tests and 6 quizzes, all of which are lockdown Browser. The videos provided do not help with the homework assignments. However, if you must take her, the class is passable with the help of a tutor and lots of studying. She does offer extra credit
I don't know why there are so many nasty comments. Professor Wilson is a great professor. Sure, the emails are a lot, but it sets reminders. Lockdown Browser is used, so study a lot.
She is wonderful but she is a tough grader and gives out a lot of homework. But she does give extra credit and after-class tutoring. And always be in class on time. If you like a challenge...this class is right for you. Because she teaches very fast and keeps moving forward. Oh, I forget...There is no makeup work. She only gives you extra credits.
She gives a lot of time consuming work but it is all needed. The assignments help you understand the test and are also similar to the test. She explains anything you are not understanding without getting frustrated.
As someone who has always struggled in math, I regret taking this course online. There were videos to teach along the way but basically have to teach yourself. Over 40 homework assignments, 40 quizzes, 4 exams. It was extremely time consuming since there were 4 hw and 4 quizzes each week. Mandatory tutoring, this class made my semester harder.
She was okay but she isn't really helpful when it comes to needing help on certain assignments.
Honestly one of the worst professors I have ever taken. She a very tough grader and will not be willing to round your grade. Her teaching methods are far from great, I seriously wonder who is able to learn like that! Save your time, money, and effort, and pick another teacher or class!!!
I had the worst time with this professor. I was dealing with something very tough at the beginning of the semester and she showed no compassion whatsoever. She nags constantly through Canvas, and she expects you to fit all of your notes and reminders onto an index card as big as ones' hand for exams, which are incredibly strict in their own right.
If you don't do the homework on time, you'll struggle in class and on tests. She gives homework after each section and accepts late work with a penalty by semester's end. Her class is tough if you fall behind. I took her for two math classes and loved her. She's helpful, sees students' potential, and is always available during office hours.
I felt really let down by this class. The instructor barely taught—she just gave us a website and expected us to figure it out. When I asked questions, she seemed annoyed or dismissive. It felt like she didn't care whether we learned or not. I signed up for a class, not a self-study course. Really frustrating.
Honestly unless your good at math don't take her she is absolutely terrible and always sound passive aggressive when speaking to her, makes you feel like you don't wanna ask her questions. and i never thought I'd be doing group work in a math class. As well as lessons she just sucks, cant really learn well with her.
Don't take her. I would not recommend, yes she does give some form of extra credit but test are 60% of your grade so if your not good in math and your brain can't comprehend how to do math don't even bother taking her class because you will fail her class.
I really tried in this class, harder than anyone knows. If you're not good at math, don't take this professor. She lets you use a 3x5 notecard for the tests like that's actually helpful—how are we supposed to fit everything on that? And the tests are brutal. They're worth more than half your grade, so if math isn't your strength, it'll mess you up.
She literally is so strict with lockdown browsers like you have to have an external camera in order to take test. i've never expiernece nothing like this also test are difficult and timed, and you get put in groups which is strange. i shouldve listened to the ratings before i took her. never again.
Be prepared for a heavy workload.There's a lot of homework through MyMathLab.The homework can be time-consuming but is necessary to stay prepared for the tests.Her tests are tough & often reflect both the lectures & homework problems.She's definitely a tough grader.Participation is also part of your grade so be active in class & show up
Dealing with this professor last semester was a disaster! Felt completely de attached from the class, teacher sends a pile of automated AI copy and paste messages when you complete work. Very hard to be reasonable and not the nicest. Would not recommend this teacher at all. Nothing happens to your grade when you do work only test affect you.
Her lectures are a whole lot of nothing as is her feedback. On test 1 we had a confrontation because my grandma died a few days before and I couldn't test my camera because I had to drive upstate immediately. She threatened my grade over Zoom and showed no empathy at all. After grilling me on my word choice of "unjustified," she let me retake.
this is the worst professor I've ever had going to college so far. She completely dismissed us as online Students didn't seem like she cared at all. When you contact and email her, she literally sends you the same copy and paste message it is very rude and dismissive. I really hope Palm Beach State does something about teachers like this. Smh
Im pretty good at math so this class really wasn't bad for me, however im not a big fan of how it is formatted. You learn everything from the homework, and its hard to figure out what exactly from the homework will be put on the test. Lowest test gets dropped + some extra credit so not too bad but super test heavy and time consuming. Overall so so.
College Algebra is a relatively easy course, but Professor Wilson is not a great teacher. I always excelled on her tests, but for one of the final ones in her class, she said that she couldn't see my workspace from my webcam, so she replaced my grade from a 90 to a 0, and then she made me go in-person to a testing center. I don't recommend her.
Professor Wilson is an outstanding teacher. She always makes sure everyone follows the class and fully understands the material. She offers extra credit, explains with patience, and is always available to help. Her dedication creates a supportive and motivating learning environment. Highly recommend.
