She did a good job of teaching concepts that I had never seen before. This was my first introduction to calculus, and I understood the concepts when she taught them. From what I have experienced, she answers questions promptly and cares about students. There are so many opportunities to get help in this class, and having an amazing TA helps, too.Rate My Professors ↗

Out of all the professors that teach 221 she can stay she did good during lecture going into concepts and actually explaining them! She doesn't answer questions in lecture but she always is happy to talk them over during office hours and is helpful then. If you need to take 221 this is the best person to learn calc from.Rate My Professors ↗
She seems to me unable to answer most questions, or if she can she will just more so ask a question back. Lectures were a total waste of time and same with discussion.Rate My Professors ↗
Maybe we should go over tough concepts in class? Let's talk about what's going to be on the exam? No you know what I've got a better idea, let's spend 30 minutes of class trying to help IZZY THE DOG with her calculus questions.Rate My Professors ↗
Teaches very clearly. If you go to lecture, you will do well in the course. Kind, clear voice, straight forward, well prepared. Some people said the homeworks were hard and harshly graded (not graded by her) but I did not have this experience at all.Rate My Professors ↗
Amazing lectures, breaks down the concepts very clearly and motivates them with examples before working through the formal proofs. While the homework given is often challenging, it directly prepares you for the exams given. Overall one of my favorite mathematics professors so far!Rate My Professors ↗
