The decision
Key questions
Is this an easy A?
Extra credit, matching study guides, and reviews help, but dense homework and tougher calc tests still require real work for an A.
Most evidence is in person; one online review describes especially hard word-problem tests.
Is the course easy?
Lower-level math can feel approachable with clear lectures, but many describe dense homework and self-teaching in trig or calc.
In-person reviews dominate; online sample is too small for a separate difficulty claim.
Is attendance flexible?
Many reviews mark attendance as mandatory, and several warn that skipping makes success much harder.
Attendance notes come almost entirely from in-person reviews.
Is this professor recommended?
Students who engage with homework and reviews often love her support, but others would avoid her for unclear lectures and heavy self-study.
In-person sentiment is mixed-positive; online is split one-to-one.

High confidence · Best fit for Effort For Reward
In-person students repeatedly praise care, extra credit, Zoom reviews, and practice tests that match exams, while critics say lectures are slow or unclear and homework forces self-study.
Main concern
Heavy homework and occasional tough grading can still demand significant self-study, especially in calculus.
What students said
“Her practice tests mirror actual exams and can be submitted for extra credit, which helps a lot.”
“I went through this entire semester having to teach myself every chapter and section through the online homework”
Remote format
Low confidence · Best fit for Effort For Reward
one strong trig recommendation versus one harsh calc critique about inflexible policies and hard tests.
Main concern
Online calc feedback warns of inflexible makeups, slow email replies, and word-problem-heavy tests.
What students said
“She is an amazing teacher who really wants to see her students succeed.”
“The material itself is easy, but she makes tests as hard as possible, some are all word problems”
Exam style
Exams are standard math tests, but practice materials and reviews often align closely with what is tested.
Assessment risk
Standard
58/100
Low score means less forgiving assessment conditions.
In-person students often get study guides or mini-tests similar to exams, plus formula sheets and pre-test reviews.
“Her practice tests mirror actual exams and can be submitted for extra credit, which helps a lot.”
“if you do your homework, pay attention, and bring your formula sheet, everything will go smoothly.”
One online review praises thorough explanations; another says tests are made as hard as possible with many word problems.
“she makes tests as hard as possible, some are all word problems”
