She expects you to know what you're doing. She doesn't answer questions, rather, repeats the same problem without variation. She does not have or develop a relationship with her students, it's like having a robot as a teacher. Agree with others about rudeness.

Asks them/formats them completely different than the actual test or gives you all the funky problems that are the exceptions to those rules.

She explained lessons well and the videos were helpful that she posted online. She was very sweet and always explained things well. She also was always welcoming and offered tons of help. I took the hybrid class and even online it was amazing because the videos were good and she spoke slow so that you could understand. Would definitely recommend.

First off let me start off by saying DO NOT TAKE ANYONE ELSE. This women can teach. By far my favorite professor so far. Sometimes things can get tricky in math and she always has a solution. She is very personable. Her class fills up quick so be sure to register quickly! My advice for studying is do the practice exams given by the online program.

I took Professor Fede for College Algebra after taking her for Intermediate Algebra to see if she improved but unfortunately, she didn't. The mymathlab application she uses is hard to understand. Additionally, the practice problems she gives in lecture are so easy but then the homework is so much more complicated. She weighs her tests so heavily

Extremely upset with my last few weeks in this course. She ignored my email about my final grade a couple of days before it was due. She never answered me and I feel like my question has been neglected. Not sure if I should have actually received an A since she refused to answer my email. Very unhappy with this as her failure may impact my gpa.

Professor Fede is one of the best professors in her field. Her zooms and grading were helpful in achieving my A. If I did not have professor Fede, I would not have had an A, and possibly not even a B. Easy to reach out for help.

I took her once before and managed a B for that course. Lecture via zoom every Monday. She does not use honorlock. She makes you log into your zoom from your phone, during the whole test so it is proctored. No notes on test except the cumulative final. The cumulative final drops the lowest grade. Overall not a bad teacher. She gives extra sessions.

Professor Fede is a super caring person who you just know wants to see her students succeed. There's a decent amount of work but that's expected for any math class. My class formed a study group that was super helpful and she was very supportive. She provided a lot of opportunities if we needed help outside of class. She's a great teacher!

Professor Fede doesn't really care about her students and has very little patience. I do not recommend having her as your professor. She is an extremely tough grader and needs to improve on her social skills. She does not communicate well with her students outside of class. She is one of the worst professors in the state of Florida.

During the zoom classes, anytime anyone in my class has a question, Professor Fede acts annoyed and as if they are a burden. This class has a test every three weeks or so, 2-3 homework assignments each week (even on test week), and one quiz every week. There are practice tests and they are the only reason I passed the tests.

Professor Fede is a terrible teacher, she is not helpful at all when it comes to technical problems. She schedules her tests back to back so you do not have a large time to study and on top of it all she just seems like she doesn't care if you pass or fail.

Ms. Fede gave us incomplete lectures during class due to this class being classified as a hybrid. Not enough time was given on test, and when you notify her about that she basically says well just start cherry picking questions. She doesn't teach, she just reads the PowerPoints. Didn't help me pass even though I was less then 2 points away. Avoid!

Prof. Fede is super sweet and wants you to succeed in her class. As long as you complete the assignments on time and study for the tests, the class itself is pretty easy. If you miss a lecture, there are videos on Canvas and she does a beautiful job of explaining concepts and answering questions. Don't procrastinate. She doesn't accept late work.

She made us watch video lectures that were an hour long twice a week, then gave us two assignments that were upwards of 35 questions that had multiple parts, so it was really more like 50-60 each. Then gave us a quiz each week that has 7 questions, so mess up one question and you go down to an 85%. This was twice, and even three times a week.

For MGF1131: 2 meetings & 2 assignments per week. Homework is on ALEKS, which allows for as many attempts as necessary to get 100%. 4 exams; no make-ups, but 1 extra exam at the end of the semester which replaces lowest exam grade. In my experience, she is very caring, explains things clearly, and offers help whenever possible.
