Dr. Thompson is an awesome professor. She makes the class interesting. She gives out handouts and handouts of the slides. She drops the lowest quiz grade, and adds extra credit points to the next lowest quiz. She goes out of her way to help you, and wants you to pass. If you do the homework and participate you will do great in her class.I got an A-
One of the Best Proffesor...doesn't care about attendence....but you just have to pay attention nd hand in all the homeworks....she is fun....i would recommend you to take this proffesor....
As said before me, definetly worth takin whichever math course she teaches. Really does what she can to make sure you get a good grade. Worth the money spent on the class
She is the best, she even gives u plenty of time to do your assignments, I understood everything she taught me, if u wanna pass this course I recomend you to take with her.
She is a sweetheart. Understanding. and Only wants her students to learn and pass the course. Shes new and is going to be amazing later on!Take her
She is fair and helpful. She wants her students to understand what it is that she is teaching. She put effirt in her teaching, she is cool and you can tell she loves math
Great math teacher to take.
She is the by far the best prof. I've had. She makes the class fun and easy for you to understand. She will make sure you understand the material. SHe breaks it down to a point that you have to understand it. I would totally recommend her.
She is a great professor, willing to explain over and over, makes sure everyone understands. She gives test make up. I totally recommend this prof.
She is a nice professor and cares about her students. But she DOES NOT know how to teach. Statistics is a easy subject but I do NOT recommend her. You will basically be teaching yourself.
There were some comments that she made that was unhelpful. Although the class was worth only one credit she made it difficult to get an A in the course. The tests were easy (open book)the thing that gets you is actually the homework. the wording gets a little tricky and losing points here and there seems inevitable.
Thompson is an Amazing professor, she cares about her students and helps you out no matter how many times you bother her. I recommend her to everyone, just dont miss out on this opportunity. I had her for statistics and everything was online we never even used the teextbook, but you need to get the code for the online segment, btw shes a great prof
Easy Class. She give you a handout of slides that she will cover for each chapter. Gives you review sheets before Midterms. Easy Grade! Awesome teacher. Must Take!
She is the best prof.she is really cooperative,down to earth and give good grade.her review sheets are very helpful for test.give online quizzes which are very easy.easily get A grade with her.i recommend this prof to everyone:)
A professor who does not only know math but also knows how to teach it so students will understand it
Excellent professor. Down to earth and cool. Easy to pass class, especially with all the assignments on MyMathLab. Explains topic well.
GREATEST MATH PROFESSOR EVER! she really knows her material and has no problem going over it if you don't understand. all the homeworks and quizzes are online her class is an easy A and i suck at math so she is really great and mellow. HIGHLY RECOMMEND TAKING HER
horrible
She's awesome! I never lost my interest in that class. If I didnt understand something, she would help me, of course. She knows what she's doing and teaches the course very well. You shouldn't fail this class, unless you dont pay attention (which goes for every other class).
awesome professor ! took her for 119 and 120 ! not like any other professor she is so helpful not strict like other professors with her grading tries to give you as many points as she can to help you pass ! take her
She is a very good professor. I recommended her to a few of my friends at York, especially if your not good at math. She gives you numerous practice handouts, and,extra credit . Also she explains the math problem to you until its crystal clear. What more can you want? But, attendance is necessary, if you miss a class your gonna be lost.
She is a great professor, I've always loved math but she made me really appreciate it more. she did everything she could to help me even after i went on.
very good professor
Dr Thompson is awesome. Give you slides and tells you what she expects from you in an exam...gives extra credit but does require you to buy my math lab which cost around $80 but hey if you want an 'A' thats a really good price
she a great professor. she will help you if you go to her. just check your email frequently to see what she may email you. absolutely great.
I strongly suggest you take this professor. She is an amazing teacher. She is willing to help you during and after class. Her she provides you with review sheets for every exam. The exams are straight from the sheets. She provides you with her PowerPoint slide. No need to but the book. She's EXCELLENT!! He's kind and understanding. You won't regret
Dr. Thompson is a very nice professor, she is neither hard nor easy. The material can be hard if you do not study. As long as you study and do practice problems you will be fine. Should know the concepts or you will get confused. She gives extra credit and partial credit on exams and quizzes.
ms thompson is not an easy prof. student who already know math, the class would be easy for them. she moves too fast nd she doesnt explain things the way for the student to understand. she grades very hard.(ex: if u miss to put a -or + sign, 4 points are gone. take another pro if u wanna pass with at least b. i dont recommend her.
Best professor at York!!! She really cares for her students and really wants them to succeed. She even gives extra credit. I absolutely love her and I deff recommend her!
Best professor ever!!!...very helpful!!!!...won't regret taking her class...she is a very fair grader! she loves her students!! if you go to her office hours she will help you out with all of your questions! EASY A in math!!
professor thompson is def one of the best professors at york more professors should be like her she helps her students and she really cares about her class.she offers a lot extra help at her office hours and gives review sheet for her exams Show up to class do your homework,and do the review sheet you should be do well in this class.
She is really nice and welcoming; very friendly. She is ready to help you and does well in explaining the work to you.
If you take her you'll definitely get an easy A. :D
Fantastic professor!! One of the best at York-other professors should follow her example. She is very understanding and fair. She teaches in a way that's easy to understand. She's funny and genuinely cares about her students. Love her!!! All her tests are fair. If you do your work, you'll get an A. Best professor ever! :D
she really does care about her students. if you're not very good at math, i would recommend taking her class, because she doesn't mind explaining the same thing over and over, and encourages you to ask her questions. no need to buy a textbook. very respectful towards students.
she is a very nice professor and is willing to help her students in every way. her exams were a bit tricky and at times she rushes through the lesson but if you stay with her after class she will explain the lesson clear. great professor overall!
rushes through the lessons, claims the exam is easy, bogus review sheets- exams come and the wording is so effed up. she doesn't really teach she just reads the PowerPoint n tries to answer questions... be ready for her exams and she says the mymathlab hw is worth something but I don't see it reflected in my grade, thanks professor Thompson!!!
She's simply the best! I really enjoyed taking the course with her. She really cares about her students and sees when you try. I don't regret taking her even one bit. Her way of explaining is very clear and she knows how to get people to understand the material. Definitely study all of her handouts because she puts some similar questions on her exams and quizzes. Thanks Dr. Thompson from AP
Professor Thompson is awesome. She speaks clear english, tons of examples, gets the class really involved, and she is a lenient grader because she gives a lot of partial credit; even curves and extra credit. I don't understand how people are complaining about her speed, for a college course I think her technique was more than fair.
She's a good teacher and helps you if you ask her for it. Pay attention in class and you can definitely pass. Makes stat easy !
Awesome Professor! If you come to class and do the assignments then you are sure to do well! Thumbs up professor!
Professor Thompson is the sweetest teacher ever. I took pre calc with her. At the beginning of the semester she goes over college algebra to refresh our brain and then the next week she begins pre calc. She is always willing to help and hears you out. Best professor at york
She is just beyond incredible. She explains to you everything you need to know. She gives extra credit and grades lenient. I like the way she teaches she makes math more funner and interesting. All you need to do is participate and come to class and you'll be fine. This is my second time taking this class and i feel like i learned alot. take her
she's a very good professor. i enjoyed her class. she sincerely wants you to pass and she helps you all the way. what else can you ask for.
Her homework is easy, but her tests are HORRIBLE!!!!! YOU WILL NOT PASS THEM!!! Do not miss class days, she will fail you. I would't take her again
Math 111. Can't say she is a bad professor but this class requires a lot considering you have 3 or 4 other classes. Homework every Friday , 5 quiz lowest score dropped , midterm, test #2 , finale . Finale is worth 30% of your grade. For both the midterm and finale , the actual test look nothing like the review . Good luck
She is one of the finest at York! I took two different classes for two different Math class with her and it has been the best experience. She gives review before test, and the test are 98% similar to the review. If you do the homework, test review, final review, you will do FINE! She'll explain until you understand! The best Professor!
Love her!! best math teacher I've had so far. she teaches well and class goes by so quick you wouldn't know it. if you really don't understand something always ask because she will help and not just give you the answer. she's also fair and gives extra credit when she wants to. just don't slack she will not accept that. PARTICIPATION is KEY.
do the homework!!! study for test or quizzes they count more than the hw and can bring your grade down quite a bit.
Dr. Thompson was by far my favorite professor this semester. She is funny, down to earth, and caring. When taking her class you must show up everyday. You learn new concepts mostly every class. She offers extra credit generously. Homework is due weekly . She teaches you little tricks here and there to understand the concepts better. I LOVE DR. T
She's always there to help but you have to pay attention. If you pay attention you will pass! If you don't get something go during her office hours. Also she knows who puts in effort and who doesn't. Work hard. 4 tests and a final. Along with weekly homework. Tests are a bit confusing but if you focus you will do good. She's a good professor
Very good professor. Her office hours are helpful if you don't understand something. She gives weekly homework on my math lab that is due every Friday. 4 tests and gives points on final if you go to the board as well as extra credit. I would definitely take her again !
She is the greatest math proffesor ever. She will give you 3 tests and a final. She gives some extra credit points. Gives chances for hw delays. And if you like math like me , you will like it more after taking her. And if you don't she is not gonna be mean or put pressure on you.
I would strong advise you not take this professor unless you're really good with math. Don't be fooled by the positive ratings she was not easy in the slightest if math isnt your thing. There are 4 tests and no quizzes so if you were to do poorly on one or two don't expect that B+ or A. She comes across as easily frustrated when answering questions
Ms. Thompson is a great math professor. You will not find anyone else who teaches math any easier. I had her for pre-calculus and now I am taking Calculus with her. She gives reviews, 3 exams, homework weekly, and is very clear with everything. I strongly recommend her for anyone having trouble with math.
She is head of the math department. She is a very good teacher however she is a tough grader and she goes very fast in her lectures. Participation, attendance, and getting good grades on the exams are very important. Therefore, you really need to work hard for this class. Good Luck if you're taking her.
The web course was not a good choice to take. I recommend taking the lecture course since you will learn better and do better on the final. There is a midterm (online) and a final exam (f2f) and weekly homework. If you really want to learn and actually receive an A take the lecture instead of the online course.
Everything was done throught Mathematica, class was very simply and easy. Midterm is done at home and submitted online, final you have to show up for.
Professor Thompson is one of the best professors I ever had. She will literally help you until you understand the material. Participation is mandatory in this class, she makes everyone go to the board but it really helps because this is when you could ask all the questions you want. The class is on the challenging side just study you'll like her.
She was an amazing professor, took her for stats ! was always willing to give feedback and answer your concerns I LOOOVE HEEEER
She is the best type of professor! I took her for pre calc and calc 1. She was always really helful and gives you feedback for everything! I wish i could take her for calc 2!
she is one of the best prof. ain York. She helps a lot and make sure you understand.
AMAZING PROFESSOR. She really takes the time to make sure her students understand the material. She has a friendly demeanor and positive attitude that is very encouraging. She is always available for help if you need it. You will pass her course and gain a good understanding of the material.
Gives 3 tests and homework's are online. Is a tough grader when it comes to grading tests.
Very caring about her students. If you dont understand a question, she will go through it in detail. Best math professor ive had!
DONT take this class. I feel like the professor, herself wrote all the good reviews about herself. She is sweet and nice but not a good teacher. I didn't understand anything first 3 weeks. Then I had to drop her class. 4 tests 85% and 15% homework. Tests are so hard. You will have to teach yourself if you take this class.
If you want a professor who has a good personality, take her! But if you want a good teacher, don't!
She basically teaches the way she wants and she is really fast. I understand that many wont agree but, not everyone learns in the same pace. I took her this semester (Spring 2019) and I failed her class. She falsely motivated me saying that my online HW would save my grade. She shouldve paid attention to people who arent bright.
She is the worst teacher she makes mistakes all the time on the board and she answer questions for the student that she likes and the ones that go to spend time with her in her office. She lies saying that the online homework will help you pass the class. Don't waste time doing her exam review sheets it doesn't help with the exam.
Her HW's dont help, her review sheets are nothing like the test and worst of all she has this fake persona of giving students false hope in passing the class.
Professor Thompson is great. She's very understanding and her tests aren't too difficult. I have to be honest, I almost never studied for her class and still scraped out of there with a B, that should tell you enough. Plus she was willing to accommodate some special circumstances for me, she's a kind person. Great professor, very recommended.
Very nice woman who actually cares about her students. Very accessible outside of school. Uses free websites for homework etc.
Ok, took her online this summer. Exam are difficult,3 exam plus 1 final. finals is tricky and you have to know your work to pass. Lots of homework. Lots of lecture(hours). No make up exam,no extra credit, no homework extension even if you have to work. Not helpful at all with homework. she needs to chill. It like she dont care abt other ppl.
Weekly homework online in addition to 3 exams plus final exam with project. If you understand the packet sheet she gives out on the first/second week of class then stay in the class if not then just drop it and find another professor. She's quick to say your answer is wrong and would always think her answer is correct. STUDY STUDY STUDY STUDY!!!!!!
THE BEST PROFESSOR EVEEEEEEER. brooo she is soo nice. Just ask for help, she will help you with anything you want. She made math so easy! I didnt take the final yet, but i just want to write that before taking it. You should take her, TRUST me. If u want to know and learn math yess, but if don't want to learn thennn idk what to say. Tyso Prof��
One of the best professors out there and posts her slides with work done. exams are no-calculator and is similar to her review sheet. only issue is that you have to pay $25 to access hw on lumen which shouldn't be hard. she's also lenient and helps you out often. just pay attention to class, you'll never learn how to do maths if you don't anyways
She's a great professor. One of the very few that cares about her students but is very serious about getting your work done and passing. Highly recommend
she cares about her student, she explains well. Her exams are just like in the review sheet and the worksheet.if you don't understand something ask questions, she'll be more than happy to explain. Watch her videos on lumen and do the homework. always Come to class, pay attention and you'll pass.
She cares about her students and explains the topics we learn well. Her exams are just like in the review sheet and were pretty solid. She is always there to help if needed. Watch her videos on lumen AND do the homework! Make sure to come to class and pay attention. It is very important. Especially near the end of the semester.
Took this course in January Winter 2024. Honestly, she made the whole process so easy with handouts and clear instructions for homework and exams. She cares more about concepts than just giving hard problems and she is so nice. Its as if she is your guardian. She gives a lot of handouts and makes it clear what you should study and made calc 1 easy.
She is a very caring teacher and does her best to make students learn. She does give extra credit assignments which really helped with my final exam grade. She is willing to make all her student know about math and spends time with each and every one of them.
Nothing to say about her. Just wondering who wrote those good comment while almost everyone hate her.
Professor Thompson is an exceptional professor! I wholeheartedly recommend choosing her for MATH 120 or 121. She's incredibly patient and willing to clarify any confusing concepts. Additionally, she offers numerous opportunities to earn extra credit. However, it is important to attend class regularly, as each lecture introduces new material.
You need to attend her lectures because there is a lot of material and she will help you with any questions you have. She also recognizes when students are struggling and will always do what she can to help boost their grade but you still need to study a lot for tests and keep up with the homeworks.
Great professor, explains concepts well and allows chances for extra credit and encourages going for additional help outside of class.
Took this professor for calc 1 during the winter session. She is so easy and very humble/kind and makes the lessons clear and to the point. This class was a hybrid session so it really works out during the winter session. Do the hw and watch all the videos and the class will be a breeze. She is always accessible outside of class as well
This professor taught Calc I very nicely in the most simplistic way possible. Just make sure to study her review packets before each exam and you should be good to go. There are also 20 myopenmath hw's throughout this class so make sure you complete them.
I never knew that I would be good at math. She is very humble, understanding, and an amazing professor.
she doesnt let you use basic calculators not even on exams, sometimes she gets mad at students for asking questions and says you should have studied it yourself. Shes okay at teaching she makes a few mistakes but shes old school she uses long division etc. Theres also no reminders for homework on brightspace so be aware of openmath. Shes okay.
She is nice, gives you extra credit, and never gets mad. If you have a question, you can ask her or email her. There is one online homework per week that you can try as many times as you want. She reviews before. The final project is very simple: you have to write a math question on any topic and difficulty (worth 5%).
