Don't be intimidated by the name, great Prof who knows what she's talking about! Go to all of the classes! She explains everything very well and if you take notes you will do fine! Marks pretty easy as well. Does tons of examples (as opposed to just explaining the mathematical theory which doesn't help me at all).

Easiest class ever. She acts like all the students are handicapped, which you can use to your advantage. For an example, she told us that we are all bad at drawing graphs so it wasn't going to be on the final. She also takes all her questions for the midterm right from her notes, same numbers and everything.

Vijaya actually taught Math 101. I was terrified of taking math after decades away from school of any kind, but Vijaya made math easy to understand, and dare I say, fun. She goes over things repeatedly, and makes sure everyone understands before she moves on. She wants her students to succeed. If you're afraid of math, this is the prof for you.

One of the best math teachers I've ever had. Will introduce theory behind the math, but will focus on examples. I didn't have to study that much because the majority of the time spent in class was her going through examples. Also, she says what important questions will be on tests. I would 100% recommend her.
