Overcomplicated the material and taught in ways that made it seem confusing when the actual topic isn't difficult. She was a bit sassy to students who asked questions.Rate My Professors ↗

I loved Professor Malitsky! Half the quizzes were individual and half were group quizzes, and 3 of each kind were dropped. She explained things well in lectures, occasionally boring or repetitive but it was good practice and attendance was mandatory due to the quizzes. Would take a math class taught by her again!Rate My Professors ↗

Math has never been my strong suit but taking this class with Prof. Malitsky was the best choice. She explains all content very well. Always goes through the most important materials and only what you will actually need. Quizzes were both days of lecture but practice examples are pretty similar. Loved her class would definitely have her again!Rate My Professors ↗

I absolutely adore Prof. Malitsky! She explained concepts clearly, taught what was required on the quizzes and tests, and was available for additional questions or clarifications. I wish she also taught calculus because I have never understood math so thoroughly. Overall, I very highly recommend her!Rate My Professors ↗

The lectures were just really slow and quite boring to follow. You can self study the material way faster than learning it in class. If it weren't for the quizzes every single day lecture would've not been very needed to go to. The practice tests and review packets are amazing they literally give you exactly what will be on the test.Rate My Professors ↗
