Professors: Respond to evaluations by creating an account
I disagree with the prior evaluation on this professor. She is one of the nicest people in the Math Department. AND she greets you enthusiastically when you come to her office hours. She does go a bit too fast, but even so --- she makes up for it during one on one time.
Positive:
Good professor.
Motivates students to do well
Is willing to help students anytime
Involves students in every lecture
Comes to class organized

Negative:
Is a bad professor
Would not recommend this professor
Expectations are unclear or lofty
Worst professors I've ever had!
This professor was absolutely awful. She made "math for elementary school teachers" hard. HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE??? In addition to this, I had to write a letter to the department head because I felt personally attacked on several occasions. Do NOT take WSU MATH 251 or 252 with this professor. Anyone else would be better.
