she's pretty strict, but a good teacher

She's tough but teaches the material very well.

She gives lots of homework, which is a pain, but pays off in the end. Be prepared to work REALLY hard, but you will be prepared for all the tests. I made an A on every test because she is such a good teacher

tons of hard homework but you will be very prepared for the department tests. worth the extra work.

very difficult class but she is the best teacher. lots of HW but it helps in the end. SI helps a whole lot. lots of work but easier with this teacher.

She is strict on notation. However, she knows what she is talking about and knows her stuff very well. If you do the suggested problems, it'll help on the test.

Im not even finished with the course i know i will make an A because she is an amazing teacher. She explains everything very thoroughly

Dr. Prevost is a great teacher. She explains stuff really well and makes sure you understand the material. Be really careful with notation, however. She's pretty picky about that. The class is MEGA hard, but if you have to take it, Dr. Prevost's the way to go.

The best and the worst calculus teacher ever. Nobody knows their stuff like her but if you think you can do good in calculus and her class, good luck.

She is the hardest grader and spends time lecturing on thms not problems

I really enjoyed having Dr. Prevost. She definitely knows her stuff, and is always concerned about your understanding of the material. Test problems are harder than the examples she gives, and she is very picky on notation. Lots of HW and quizzes, but 4 or 5 of them get dropped. Work hard=A.

Very straight foward and organized. Clearly explains what is expected from students. She knows her stuff and can relay it to students. Shows theory but also gives examples. Does give h/w and quizzes (drops 4-5 of them) which helps learn the information. If really want to learn material and willing to put in some work highly suggest Prevost

Prevost is the best teacher I've had at Clemson and the best math teacher I've ever had. Her quizes and homework are hard, but they make you know the material for the test. She prepares you well for test and knows her stuff really well.

I loved this teacher. She is the best teacher I have ever had.

You can't fault her for teaching calculus because it's not easy. She is by far one of the best math professors at Clemson. She did a great job explaining topics in a way everyone could understand.

I took her for calc 1 and 3. Very knowledgeable, and very smart. Answers questions thouroughly. Tests are harder than quizes and hw. Collects HW and takes roll. Basically, you will learn calc, but it will be hard. Fair grader, but is picky on notation. If you're ready to take calc head-on, take this prof.

very hard class but she does a better job explaining it than anyone else could... very picky about notation though... spends too much time explaining concepts and not enough time working problems

She's a very good calculus teacher and she's pretty reasonable about quizzes and homework. Her tests can be pretty killer, though. If she's in a good mood she'll add on some extra credit.

Gr8 teacher....knows her stuff. Gives a lot of assignment during the course and a harsh grader.

She was a great teacher. She really knows the material and teaches it in a vey clear way. She does grade harsh, but one thing I really liked about her was that she was very helpful outside of class. She was always available in her office, even outside office hours, and by phone/email. Simply put, she's hard, yet helpful.

Great teacher. Will respond to any email immediately and is always available to help. She doesn't research so she is completely dedicated to her students. Always one extra credit question on tests... tests are tough but extremely reasonable if you do all the practice problems. I made an A and I'm not an A student. Just work and you'll learn.

Sherri is a great teacher, but she is also one of the hardest ones I have ever seen; most other classes get to use atleast a calculator and sometimes a notesheet on the test and go a lot slower. If u take her u will learn a lot, but just making a B will consume most of your semester. I told all of my friends to stay far away from Sherri.

Hard work, online homework everyday, use maple for 3d graphing, but passable if enough work is put in.

Not the easiest professor, and a bit strict grade wise, but Dr. Prevost knows her calculus and teaches it well. Take her if you're up to the challenge and want to take something from the class once you've completed it.

Great teacher, but impossible class. I had to drop, because i didnt have the time for the class. Make sure you keep up with your reading and do your homework

very hard class, especially taking it first semester freshman year. I ended up with a B but had to work extremely hard. She's very helpful and cares about you learning but is difficult.

Dr. Prevost is a great teacher, but impossibly hard and the course if very fast paced. If you keep up with the homework, and pay attention in class, you will learn a lot. However, she asigns maple projects that will take you all weekend to complete. Only take her if you are up for a challenge and are willing to work very hard.

This was definitely the hardest class I had ever taken in my life. Sometimes the work was pretty overwhelming, but Dr. Prevost was a great teacher. I actually (miraculously?) got a high A in the class, and I know there were a few other people in the class who did the same. If you're not up for a challenge, don't take this class.

Probably one of the hardest classes I've had to take. Homework everynight and a quiz once a week, but she is a great teacher. Her tests and quizzes are fair, but she is strict at grading. She is harder than other teachers, but you'll understand the material really well. Do not take her unless you're willing to work hard.

She will demand your focus and your effort, but you will learn the material very well, and if you come at it with a decent attitude, you'll enjoy it, too.

Really good professor. One of the better instructors in the math department. Yes, she's tough, but believe me, it's going to be worth it when you take 208. After all, were at Clemson to learn, right?

Great teacher, always willing to help out. Hardest class I've ever taken but if you apply yourself you'll do fine...if not then expect to flunk out.

Dr. Prevost is a VERY good teacher and knows her stuff as if she made the book herself. TAKE HER, but only if you are willing to work...and I mean work very hard (that is unless you are already a math god). You'll be glad you took her (and you WILL get an A) if you put in the HARD work all semester long and *understand, not just memorize.*

Dr. Prevost is a very difficult teacher, but is very willing to help. She is also very understanding if you have to miss class for some reason. You come out of the class knowing the material.

Prevost is undoubtedly a good professor. She really knows her stuff, and posts very helpful notes online. That being said, she is also a VERY difficult professor. Her exams are difficult, but the grading is fair. Do not expect an easy A in this class, but be prepared to work your butt off for a good grade.

A very excellent, thorough calculus teacher. Class was extremely difficult, but grading was straightforward and fair. If you really want to understand 206 and 208 material very, very well, take her. If just trying to pass the class, take someone else.

Dr. Prevost is an excellent instructor, and she always grades fairly. She's organized and helpful. In my experience, most of the negative feedback for Dr. Prevost is a result of a personal grudge or a previous bad grade. She's hard, but she is very good.

Dr. Prevost is very clear in her lecturing, and paying attention in lecture is key to passing. She seems to understand that many of her students might not have a strong background in more basic math (especially linear algebra and algebraic manipulation in 208), so she makes a point to review these concepts. She is very available in person for help.

Dr. Prevost is extremely good at explaining difficult concepts, and she proves most of the equations and theories used in class. Tests are very difficult, and the class requires hard work, but Dr. Prevost is available and willing to help after class and during office hours. Work hard, and the class will be beneficial.

She knows her stuff, and has homework every night, but the class is extremely tough. If you fall back on 1 day, it's hard to catch up. She writes on the chalk board and is very good at helping you visualize what's happening. Overall, she is very good.

She is a good teacher and I understand her and understand the content, but her grading is ridiculous. I have received quizzes back that I got all the answers right on, but I received a 75% and this is not an uncommon occurrence.

Very Good but Very hard teacher. Homework is due just about every night and takes a while to do. Very good at teaching the material but makes her tests and quizzes ridiculously hard. If you want an easy A don't take this class.

Dr. Prevost is the hardest teacher I've ever had, but is also the best. Her class is extremely difficult and requires a lot of work, but you will learn the material if you do her assignments. Great teacher if you are willing to meet with her in office hours and just ask questions when confused.

I'm typically good with math, however the workload required for this course is unrealistic compared to other courses. Dr Prevost is extremely helpful during office hours, however this doesn't translate to the tests, as her tests are more than can be done in the time allotted. If you want to pass this class anything above a C, take someone else.

Can be a difficult class if you are not mathematically gifted, however far from impossible. Homework due M,W,F and quizzes every week. If you get behind your grade will snowball, but stay ahead and you'll be fine. Very fair teacher. Tests are generally similar in difficulty to homework.

Math really has to be your strong suit in order to take this class. The amount of homework is the largest out of any class I've taken. If you start feeling lost before the drop date, you're definitely going to want to kick this class to the curb. You'll learn a lot if you stick with her, but she makes you feel stupid for asking questions in class.

she gives tons of homework relative to other classes but the practice is good. If you are having trouble GO TO OFFICE HOURS. go prepared with questions and she is super helpful.

Dr. Prevost is a tough professor, but if you're willing to work for it, you will succeed. Do ask her questions and go to the review sessions, she is very willing to help. You must do all the homework, sometimes identical questions are on the quizzes. Overall, she was a great teacher.

Very smart professor and genuinely cares for her students, however her tests are pretty hard and her weekly quizzes can make you pull your hair out. Expect HW every night and be prepared to study. A's are possible but difficult to receive.

I won't call this class "easy" because it is multivariable calculus, but I do think she made it as easy as she could given the material. If you pay attention in class and do the homework you will be fine. Prevost was a great teacher and had a sense of humor. She's definitely my favorite professor so far.

Easily the most difficult calculus class I had taken to date. She taught the material well, although don't blink, you will miss something important. The only downside is no online notes. Tests are usually graded pretty tough. Final replaces your lowest test and be grateful for that. Expect around 2-3 2 hour long online HW and a quiz weekly.

She gave a lot of homework and quizzes. She was also a ver hard grader BUT she does an excellent job teaching the material. Definitely take her27

Dr. Prevost is a great teacher and truly cares about your understanding of the material. She is a tough grader but very accessible outside of class while providing numerous resources to reinforce her lectures.

You will have to work for a decent grade in this class. However, it is possible! There will be MWF homework that takes up 2-3 hours. This class WILL be your PRIORITY. If it's not, you will suffer. You will learn more than friends in other classes. My friend's professor even said what we did in Dr. Prevost's class was "too hard to do by hand."

I took 2060 & 2080 with Prevost and made B+ both times. She is a pretty tough professor when it comes to grading and exams, but nothing impossible as long as you put in the work. Her lectures are taught so well and clear, which makes it easy to actually learn the material for the future. She is a fantastic professor.
