Dr. Phillipson is very energetic and engaging in her lectures. She records them, so if needed, you can rewatch them online. She is also very understanding of individual situations. I highly recommend-- I think that finding a good math professor is hard to come by, and she highly exceeds expectations!Rate My Professors ↗
She lets you out of class early everyday and also lets you talk with your friends during lecture.Rate My Professors ↗
Dr. Phillipson was always very cheerful in lectures, she took a good amount of time in class to deeply explain topics so that we can understand what's going on at a better level. She answers questions perfectly, her lecture notes are easy to follow along with, and the homework that she assigns is great practice for exams.Rate My Professors ↗
She flips over the quietest talking in a 100-person class, stopping her teaching and pointing it out. It's more distracting than the whispering of students. Also, if you put your notebook or computer in a bag more than 5 seconds before the end, forget about it.Rate My Professors ↗
She loves it when you pack up early and talk in class.Rate My Professors ↗
Dr. P was a great lecturer. All of her lectures are recorded but she's great at answering questions in person. All of the exams were very similar to past exams although a little MCQ heavy. She is also the course coordinator and very knowledgeable, and her office hours were amazing she came up with great examples on the spot. Take her for 320.Rate My Professors ↗
