Comments

Her lecture maybe is not the best, but obviously she prepares a lot before lecturing, very caring and helpful during office hours.

Failed to reproduce the proof during lectures. But she is kind of nice (Maybe?).

Clearly cares about the students and is a nice teacher, but also very inexperienced and isn't that great at explaining difficult concepts. There were some topics in the course description that wasn't covered due to time issues (no Fourier series, approximation, differential equations) so if you're interested on those, it might be disappointing.

Real Analysis is a tough course to teach, particularly if it's your first time teaching it. The reviews below don't consider this. Y'all be thinking this is calculus when it's higher mathematics. Be prepared to study a lot and know how to solve all the hw and study guide problems, among others. Then, you may just about be able to manage... or not.

I think Sarah is a really nice person. She knows people by name which is amazing imo. However, this is a tough class so she might not teach really well or super prepared. I am sure it will get better. Other reviews are a bit harsh.

poor teaching lack preparation before class

worst math teacher in UWMadison

just so so

Don't know how to teach, don't know how to deliver a lecture. Little relation between exams and lectures.
