She isn't an easy teacher, but she does give the proper teaching ethics. Gives pre-printed notes in a packet, rarely use the book.

She has almost all the notes written out for you and all you have to do is fill in the blanks.

If you still have trouble, feel free to go to her office hours and ask questions. Her classes have the least dropout rates.

Ms. Taguchi is a wonderful professor who cares deeply about her students and wants to make sure they learn the material. Her lessons are well-structured and she's very helpful if you have any questions. I'm glad I picked her class for my first semester and I would do it again in a heartbeat. If you're willing to put in the effort, she is fantastic.

First time coming back to school after 12 years. Everything was new to me so that made it difficult. I'm sure if you need a refresher then this is the class for you. We started out with 30+ students and ended up with 10+ so I wouldn't recommend if you not going to put in the time, and it is needed. It's 2 classes in 1 so the pace is very fast!!!

Such a horrible professor... She legit does not teach you at all, and expects you to know everything in the test. All she ever does is hands us homework and expects us to learn off YouTube.

I STRUGGLE with math. I took Taguchi over summer 2017 and let me tell you, one of the hardest classes EVER. She was an excellent professor though. She was tough. You fall asleep? Kicked out. You're on your phone? Warning then kicked out. I needed someone tough for math or else I slack. She really kept me in check. She explains the material well.

Do not pick this professor unless you're very good at math. Might as well take an online course and teach yourself. She makes you print out all of your notes no matter what .Usually about thirty pages. Exams are printed out and taken on zoom, she needs to see your whole environment. Last she's bad at just explaining the overall concept of the math.

So many papers

Its a boring class. She calls herself a picky grader. She is really specific about how she wants you to solve a problem. Solve it a different way and you get it wrong. Lots of hw and notes. Which dont help towards the exams because they are dont completely different ways. Mathway solves it another way than they way she wants it.

After taking a few years off from school I came back and was nervous to be taking a math class again, but professor Trieu was absolutely amazing. I took her class over zoom with support class and the notes she gives you can be used on the exams. make sure your cameras are on and you could end up with some extra credit points. fair grading& funny!

Great Professor. Easy to communicate with, actually cares about students grades, acknowledges hard work and effort. To pass, do the homework, seek to understand material, study for tests, and put in time for class. I struggle with math and after taking her class, I feel confidant in my ability to solve math problems and pass college.

Professor Tanomo was an amazing professor. The course I took was online, but regardless of, I learned more than I have from any math class ever. There are assignments every week so just stay on top of those and you will succeed (she does not take late work) You can get 100% on every assignment if you want because you can redo the HW questions.

As long as you do your homework the tests should be pretty easy to get through. You'll also get a good grade if you stay on top of the work. Don't procrastinate. I had an A until it got more complicated for me but math is not my thing and I still passed. highly recommend this teacher.

Even though I dropped out of this class several times. I would like to acknowledge that this professor cares deeply for her students and if you need help anything you should always ask for help and she will give. Sometimes doing zoom meeting is a bit difficult for me as we couldn't meet in person because of her injury.

Tanomo has a unique teaching style, but if you're willing to put in the work, it can really pay off. The class has a lot of assignments, but you can redo homework for full credit. Unstuck AI was a big help for efficiently preparing for exams.

This was a really good class, the professor explained everything well during her online lectures. There wasn't much homework, but you do have to pay for the site to do the homework. The difficult part was the exams, there were only four the entire Semester and each one covered a lot of information, but you're allowed a cheat sheet front and back.

i ended up dropping out of her class but for my own benefit, i was on the verge of failing if i stayed entire semester. shes an amazing professor and wants everyone to thrive. she makes herself available during office hours where it was better to get one on one help. highly recommend for harder courses, she will make you happy

shes an ok professor. Took her for pre-calc, doesn't provide study guides, leaves you to completely rely on the online hw and notes for studying. she's runs through the notes and baby feeds you how to do every problem not leaving any room to improve and learn it yourself. And I don't think I was the only one who also didn't like her sense of humor
