ok so she is great about responding to questions in class and explaining things until you understand them. However asking questions through email you may not always get a response. This can be frustrating especially when you have a question about homework and its due the next day. This may only be because that I took her class during the summer.

She was clear and helpful and made me look at math in an entirely different way. She encouraged us to find different ways to do a problem which made it easy for students who didn't understand the usual way of doing things. I've e-mailed her many times wondering when she'll teach again as she's on a hiatus right now.
