Easy teacher if you just want to pass the class. If you want to learn really well, wouldn't recommend. She's very nice and helpful, she just got confused a lot with the class work. Maybe its her nerves because she just started teaching, but I would have wanted the class a bit more clear and a little challenging.

She truly knows her stuff and pushes you to challenge yourself. She thoroughly explains all material and encourages questions and class participation.

ATTENDANCE is a must in her class and make sure to take notes because they will come in handy when taking test.

She's a really nice lady and tries her best to help but she can be a little difficult with to understand with her accent. Class is very disorganized but she gives take home tests and lets you do open notes/groups sometimes. Final is by yourself so if you fail that then it drops your A like it did mine. Overall she's pretty good. Just disorganized.

As someone who has a hard time in every math class I enter, Professor Fernandez was amazing. Her work is mostly in Pearson which you have until the end of the semester to finish, and none of her tests are proctored and on canvas. I had her online and would only join the zooms, no camera needed. This is definitely an EASY A CLASS I highly recommend

Professor Fernandez is great - she really cares and will work with you. The class is manageable if you put in the effort. unstuck study and the textbook are helpful study tools alongside her notes.

She is a very nice person; I really liked her. She is one of the most flexible teachers with deadlines I have ever seen. Her class is super easy; all the tests are online through my math lab at home. She really cares for her students. I will definitely take her for MAC1105.

I really enjoyed taking this class with her. She is very easygoing, supportive, and makes the material simple to understand. The only strict requirements for passing are attendance and completing the homework. All of the tests were without proctoring, which made the course feel much less stressful.
