Nice lady, but I had many problems with her class; her teaching style was horrible, she overemphasized easy problems but would rush through hard ones, she is hard to understand and assigned A LOT of homework that took away from my other classes. Her tests do not consist of typical chapter problems, but rather extremely HARD ones that test you.

She is somewhat difficult to understand due to her accent, but is very willing to help out with the material after class. She checks ALL homework, and it is I believe 20% of the final grade. There are only 6 or so quizzes, each worth 10% of the final grade. She DOES give some extra credit, so do it whenever it is offered!!

Before I had taken this class, I had heard alot of rumors that Professor Wang is difficult. I've learned more from her then anyone else, she wants to see you succeed. so my advice for anyone who takes her class is study, get a group of people in class to study with, and go to her office hours...if you do that, you will pass no questions asked.

Do NOT listen to the other reviews. Here is the the truth, she is a nice and funny lady but with her way of rushing through EVERYTHING, intermediate algebra is not worth taking with her.

Ms. Wang is actually a good teacher if you need mathematics in your major. She will work you SO hard you thought you would die. But if you pass her class, then you will do VERY well in math.

The only negative to taking her class is the fact that it does take a week or so to get used to her thick accent. However, class isn't hard as long as you pay attention and study for tests. Tests are just like the study guide (with changed numbers but same set up) which makes tests easy. Tests are pretty much 100% of the grade. Made me love math.

Don't take this class, for real. She gives the stupidest amount of work I've ever seen, and she's not even involved in the class, she takes 3 days to answer a message. You basically buy the book and she's asking you to do around 120 exercises/week plus the quizzes, there is no work coming from her. A terrible class to avoid.

Don't do it. There is no lecture material or ppt to help with the reading material. There's a discussion board and we have to list problems we had with HW and other students answer, so we are basically teaching ourselves. Added algebra HW and quiz when she saw what questions were being asked. SO MUCH WORK, NO TEACHING. Calculus is hard enough.

I read a lot of comments about Prof Wang and I initially thought I was in for the worst when I took this class. However, she's been nothing but helpful and caring. During Covid, taking this class online, she went out of her way to set up Teams meetings to ensure I got the help I needed (I struggle with math). Ton of work, but she will help.

Worst professor I have ever had here at EFSC. Never responds to your emails and doesn't even care about you passing her class. There are two exams that are proctored with just a calculator. So if you do bad at one you will be struggling. I have never had a teacher tell me to read the textbook when I ask for help!

math has always been one of my worst subjects, so I've always needed a really helpful math teacher. professor wang was not helpful. if you did not know what you were doing, she would say that math is logic and that you should know how to do it. it is incredibly fast paced. do not recommend this professor if you are not super super good at math.

If you can't learn at a fast pace DO NOT TAKE HER. She was super fast and when I had questions she would never answer them clearly. She would skip many important steps to solving problems. Would never explain clearly what she was doing either. I used to love math and this class made me hate it. I had to got to tutoring after every class.

Overall, Professor Wang is a very good professor. She doesn't vaguely tell you what to do to solve a problem; she explains it thoroughly and proves formulas so you aren't clueless to why that exact formula is used. The only negative is that she teaches quickly, so if you aren't great at math to begin with, she might not be a good choice for you.

Entering this class I was scared to take Professor Wang because of the mixed reviews. But what I found was that she just has a particular teaching style. If your goal is to find a cakewalk course, do not take her. But if your goal is honestly to truly learn the material, she will help you improve greatly and offer grace when you need it. Recommend!
