She spends way too much time on simple concepts and nowhere near enough time on topics that actually need it. Her class is fine to take if you've taken calculus before and have some kind of background knowledge, but otherwise do not.",

Wouldn't shy away from taking another course with her, but I wouldn't necessarily be overly exuberant to ",

I came from a pre-calc background, and was learning a lot of things for the first time. I would come out of lectures extremely confused and ended up having to reteach myself majority of the concepts. Use the MLC if you want to get a good grade. ",

Her slides pace were a bit fast, but she always went back and gave up class time for midterm/ exam review. Overall, she was great (coming from someone who has never taken calculus). ",
