Seems like she goes out of her way to hinder your learning. Doesn't provide review material for exams. A large portion of her exams are multiple choice so if you don't have some knowledge of basic vocab from the book...it's terrible. 3 exams, 30% each, hw/part is 10%. She is very vague and takes points off for the stupidest things. STAY AWAYECON1116 2012-12-09 13:04:02 +0000 UTC
This teacher is the worst I have ever had. She didn't explain the concepts and was unwilling to answer questions. The few calculus concepts I already knew she actually managed to confuse me about. My grade was low at a 35, I stopped going to class and it doubled in just a few quizzes. If you can transfer to another class and teacher, DO IT!!!!!!!!MTH241 2008-12-22 21:07:16 +0000 UTC
Terrible teacher. Barely speaks english - strait from Russia. She is probably one of the stupidest, intellectually and socially, teachers I have ever had, ever.MTHU241 2008-10-20 19:18:44 +0000 UTC
