She has no idea what she is doing. She makes mistakes a lot and stops herself to ask, "Did I do that right?" out loud. She reads straight from whatever lesson she printed off from the textbook and basically recites it. Do NOT take her class if you want to actually learn.

She just makes no sense at all! She doesn't explain anything and when she does explain, she's often incorrect which makes it incredibly hard to learn from her. I did well on all the homework and quizzes, but in the end it didn't matter because your grade is based solely on 3 exams which are hard to pass if you're not good at teaching yourself.

I took this class over fall, and it was the worst thing I think Ive ever done. She does not know what is going on, and there is moments of silence when she asks a question because literally no one knows whats happening. Exams are heavy, and if you fail the final youre screwed.

Not a good teacher. An airhead to the point where students have to pretty much teach the class and themselves. Doesnt know what she is doing and is late to class half of the time. Horrible teacher and is the reason i only take classes that are taught by actual professors

She does not teach you anything at all. She uses videos from different lectures of other professors, she even fails to upload the proper lecture videos which is the only thing she technically needs to do herself. Labs are so hard and no explanation is provided. Awful professor for a challenging class!

She doesn't help she just stayed on the computer the TA's helped more.

Absolutely awful online course format that should have no place at this university. 30 minute videos and textbook with awful explanations. The prof is nice, but she takes forever to respond. No study guide, and half the test was nothing like the homework and the MATLAB portion is borderline impossible. TAKE THIS CLASS IN-PERSON, NOT ONLINE! PLZ

Absolutely Awful! She does not teach at all! All she does is tells us to watch these awful videos with no explanation at all. Labs are very hard to do and the tests are near impossible! No study guide, no explanation on anything. Avoid if you can!

So i guess that studying multiple hours each week is still not enough to get above a 50% on exams. The textbook is horrible, explanations do not make sense at all and she doesn't even teach at all. Dumb videos with no guidance. Stay away from this teacher at all costs

lmao do not even bother trying to email this professor. She takes forever to respond and only responds with half information and that's it. Tests are extremely hard and there is no study guide at all. This prof is incredibely lazy to do anything but make videos at 4am going over the easiest examples. Stay away from her and take a different prof

I guess they really do hire anyone at ASU because this "professor", if you can even call her that, does the bare minimum for this class and always answers emails super late. What a waste of my money and time. Take this super important class with a real professor.

She does not do anything! She just stays on her computer the entire time. The TAs did a better job at teaching the class than her. She does not deserve to be a teacher at all. She cannot even teach the class the necessary material!

Only take this online if you are an absolute genius and you already know the material, if not, than I highly encourage you to take this course in-person with a real professor. It baffles me how she is still able to teach this class. I made the mistake of taking this awful teacher who doesnt make a single effort to teach you at all.

Awful awful teacher, cannot teach at all and will barely respond to emails at all. I dont know how she is for other classes, but for this one she simply does not care at all. Please take with someone else.

Please never teach again, ASU needs to fire this lady because she does not care about you or the class at all. Cannot believe ASU hires people like this smh.

Doesn't explain concepts at all, and relies on 10 year old videos from a guy that doesn't even work at ASU anymore. You need to already have taken this class to get above a 50% on the tests, and they are the hardest tests I have ever taken. What an absolute fraud and waste of money.

The tests are absolutely impossible, even if you know everything. Some questions are absolute nonsense and are never covered. Literally misleads you on test prep and says questions are from the homework when they are not. Takes years to respond and her answers are half-baked. Do not take.

Please never teach again, it is clear you have no idea what you are doing, and are a what a waste of space and money. Complete joke.

Incredibly difficult exams worth 70% of your grade, only 8 questions long and randomly generated. The notes do not help at all the teacher does not help at all because she is always too "busy." Joke of a teacher, do not take.

She has no idea what she is doing. She makes mistakes a lot and stops herself to ask, "Did I do that right?" out loud. She reads straight from whatever lesson she printed off from the textbook and basically recites it. Do NOT take her class if you want to actually learn.

What a disaster of a class this was. Near impossible tests, unrepsonsive teacher, and videos that don't go over the basics of the material. Homework is also incredibly hard and almost is nowhere near the lectures. Incredibly lazy professor that does not care about online student

Probably the laziest professor I have ever had. She does nothing to help you at all and assigns these 20 minutes videos that barely go over the required material. Test are super hard, you have to have the textbook completely memorized if you want an ok score. Average was a 25% on each test. Dont take this sorry excuse for a teacher.

Doesn't explain concepts, simply just writes examples without explaining what everything is and how she got there. Wouldn't take if you aren't already an aboslute genius or you hate yourself, lol

How is she still allowed to teach this course?? She literally does nothing at all and is completley useless. Just like the reviewer below me said, her lectures are not hers and the tests are absolutely impossible. Please take this course in-person and NOT online because she is the only one the teaches it.

She does nothing at all. Tests are incredibly hard, homework is hard, labs are hard, everything is hard. What a joke of a teacher.

Tests are super difficult and the homework is downright impossible. Only easy part is the labs, but she barely helps you on them. This professor should not be allowed to teach this class, instead they give to someone who is more competent to teach it.

The final exam was incredibly difficult. The problems are generated from WebWork, and usually 10x harder than the ones from the homework. The professor is completely useless and she needs to be fired immediately for running this disaster of a class

They really do hire anyone at ASU lmao

DO NO TAKE! Little to no time on tests and homework is very hard. She messes up constantly in lectures and is very hard to get a hold of. Office hours are at the most bizarre hours. Awful teacher.

She does not do anything at all! She just stays on her computer the entire time doing god knows what. She cannot even teach the class the necessary material! Bad teacher take somehwere else

She does not do anything at all! She just stays on her computer the entire time doing god knows what. She cannot even teach the class the necessary material! Bad teacher take somewhere else

Only take this online if you are an absolute genius and you already know the material, if not, than I highly encourage you to take this course in-person with a real professor. It baffles me how she is still able to teach this class. I made the mistake of taking this awful teacher who doesnt make a single effort to teach you at all. absoutley awful

What a joke of a teacher. I hope she gets fired and no institution anywhere has to deal with this fraud.

This teacher should never teach again, it is clear that she has no clue what she is doing and is probably the laziest professor I have ever seen. Tests are randomly generated hellholes designed to make you fail. Filled with content never covered in the course. Feel like I wasted my tuition. ASU need to fire her immediately

She takes forever to respond and only responds with half information and that's it. Tests are extremely hard and there is no study guide at all. This prof is super lazy to do anything. Stay away from her and take a different prof

Boy! I love taking tests with content that was not covered in the lectures. More than half of the questions are incredibly difficult, one small error and you barely get an credit. What a joke of a teacher

Wow, just wow

She graduated with a PHD from ASU, so no wonder she is an awful teacher lmao. Awful lectures, impossible tests and homework, graded by few things. She needs to be fired ASAP, this is unacceptable how little she cares about this class or the students.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS TEACHER. I feel so sorry for those who have not witnessed the horrors of this class, and she makes absolute torture

What a disaster of a class this was. Near impossible tests, unresponsive teacher, and videos that don't go over the basics of the material. Homework is also incredibly hard and is nothing like the the lectures. Incredibly lazy professor that does not care about online student. She needs to be fired ASAP.

Apparantly she is the only teacher that makes you take MATLAB tests. MATLAB tests? Seriously?!? They are actually impossible if you are not good a master of coding. She constantly misleads you into what will be on the tests (tests are harder the lytvak's tests by the way). Do not take this course online, please for the love of god take it in person

Sandra Cole is not a good professor. Exams are incredibly difficult, even if you study for hours and hours, you will never get a good grade. Actual average of the test was below a 20% No one should go through the torture that is the joke of a teacher. What a joke.

She is clearly not capable of teaching this course. Lectures are not hers and she does nothing to help you. Mix this with incredibly difficult tests and labs which are all just randomly generated gibberish with topics that are not covered in the class. Why she is still teaching at all is beyond me.

You have to spend $200 on the worst textbook imaginable because this teacher is so lazy to provide the actual text. How she is still able to this class is crazy. Lectures are not hers and barely go over the material. Structure is compltely wack with sections out of order. Test are near impossible as they cover stuff outside the scope of the course.

Tests are super difficult and the homework is downright impossible. Only easy part is the labs, but she barely helps you on them. This professor should not be allowed to teach this class, they just need to get rid of the online version of this class all together.

What a joke.

Absolutley unacceptable. Why are we being tested on things outside the parameters of the course?? Tests are brutally hard, only 8 questions long, all free response, and are randomly generated questions that not even the top notch professor can get right. She acts all nice and all, but in reality does not care about you or anyone else. Stay away.

Horrible! Impossible to do homework, labs, and tests! Harder than lytvak, england,and nikitin combined! the problem is that nobody knows who she is because she hides at the west campus, a place nobody goes too. STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS!

Please, never teach again. I beg you, please for the love god, never teach again.

If you are currently enrolled in the icourse for this class, DROP IT NOW! This teacher has designed this course to specifically make YOU fail. No matter how hard you study, no matter how much tutors help you, YOU will not get above a 20% on the test (which was the average by the way). Homework and tests are impossible, and she does MATAB tests bruh

I dont care if she is nice or not, she is a bad teacher. Lectures are not hers and they are awful, skipping over crucial requirements for the homework. Tests are astronomically hard, pulling from topics not covered in class or the textbook. I am convinced she forgot this class exists Please do do this class in person with someone more competent.

Oh my god! The final was super hard having questions that are not covered in the textbook, lectures, and any where related to diff eq. and 70% of your grade! Not to mention she does not help you at all and is completely useless with homework and labs! Why she allowed to teach such an important class is beyond me! Was a sorry excuse for a teacher

She does not know how to control a classroom. Kind of like a graduate student, except the graduate student oftentimes knows what they are talking about, this lady doesn't. She has a PHD from ASU so she immediately loses all credibility. Many students have already dropped the course because she seems very imcompetent to teach at all.

I think I'm gonna switch to business now.

This is an undergraduate class, so of course the tests consist of graduate level proofs with complex numbers and 20 order derivatives. Why? Because she has no clue what she is doing. She should be banned from every institution on this planet and be banned from teaching ever again. Her PHD should be revoked too.

looooooool dont take

Last semester out of the 60 people that were enrolled in this icourse, only 3 people passed. Let that sink in.

To all of those that are enrolled in the MAT 275 icourse right now and in future semesters, you have been warned...

Average on the midterm was a 15% and it is worth 40% of your grade. No curve... Heard it only gets harder from here.

This class made me want to quit school every day.

Tests are outrageously hard, filled with PHD level proofs that have nothing to do with differential equations at all. Tests are also worth 70% of your grade and the average was around a 10% and she does NOT curve. This is unacceptable and she needs to be fired immediately for being incompetent and unable to teach.

Either she faked her PHD or ASU gave it her by accident because never before in my school career have I had a more unworthy and useless professor in my entire life. Many students, including myself, have already talked to the dean and petitioned to have her removed from teaching duties. She needs to be investigated for trying to fail students.

Class uses ALEKS, why? This isnt high school anymore. You teach yourself, everything is on you to complete. No help basically, TAs don't know much either. Teacher doesn't know how to do basic algebra, it is frightening to see bruh. Dont take this class

She barely teaches anything, as the lectures are from a different teacher. She gives little feedback on assignments. Most of the time, the test questions are based on the Infinity questions, but the MATLAB portion of the final was super difficult. The only saving grace is that she gives partial credit if you show ALL your work. Had to teach myself.

If this is the same sandra cole that was born in New Jersey, keep reading. She shared that info to the class instead of math. Her class is just aleks and she is strict when it comes to the topics. Especially since the first week you have to do 30 and tests have more value! Would not recommend at all. Not even your worst enemy deserves her.

RUN, as far as you can from this woman.

Just dont.

Terrible professor. Never lectures or teaches anything at all, you are doing assignments on Aleks from day 1. Her TA's are usually the ones answering questions but some of them don't even know how to use Desmos, and Professor Cole prefers to send them to answer questions than for her to answer. Teach yourself, she's no help.

I dont care if she is nice or not, she is a bad teacher. Lectures are not hers and they are awful, skipping over crucial requirements for the homework. Tests are super hard, there from topics not covered in class or the textbook. Please take this class with someone else.

Her class is not good. Her explanations are not beginner friendly. If you do not already have a good base from high school you will suffer. Aleks is bad and TA's are not helpful. Don't take her class.

There is no point in showing up to this class, we spent every day working on our ALEKS topics. If we needed any assistance, we had to ask the TAs for help. The professor literally never teaches, and you're basically on your own. Thankfully, attendance is taken online on iClicker, so you can just not show up to class and still get attendance.
