Comment:
Replies to emails instantaneously, yet takes weeks to upload class notes and test marks. Class notes are extremely messy, and she does not provide any examples that will be helpful towards the tests which she calls "quizzes" yet they are worth 60 marks and not even given half of class time to finish. They're marked very harshly, and vaguely worded.

DON'T take this class with this professor. If you want to learn material during the lecture you wont. She makes easy concepts very difficult to understand and her writing is very messy. You will be self teaching yourself through the entire course. Her online quizzes are very short, you will have no time to check over your work. HAVE FUN!

Comment:
She's a great person to talk to after class, but I would not take any of her classes again. Lectures are rushed and she's not very clear. I had to read a lot and self-teach most of the semester. Tests are super long but questions were similar to the practice exam. This course made me depressed, but take her if you're good at math.

Nice teacher, but if you struggle with math in the first place, don't take her. She likes to skip steps assuming you know how to do it in your head. Her tests were the only up-side because she would use a lot of similar questions (some exact same) to her study guides. I only recommend her if you are a B+ or higher student in Math.

Very nice person, but gets SUPER off track during lectures. Don't expect to learn much in class, have to self teach. Entire class was frustrated with her and her teaching style.. only reason I did ok is because I was good with math in the first place.

Comment:
The worst proffesor ever. Needed it for nursing pre-req and I thought I was not going to pass. The midterm average was below 50 so she had to scale it up to make the average 60. After the midterm, half the class dropped out of the course. Luckily, I found a great YouTube channel who taught me better and for free.

Comment:
Where do I start... First off, she does not know how to teach Stats 1160 to an extent where you begin to realize that she actually does not know anything about Statistics. If she is asked a question about something she doesn't know, she will begin to talk about random stuff. Basically, if you wanna be depressed for a semester take her class.

Natasha is a good prof. She really wants you to understand the material. If you ask questions she's happy to answer them. Her tests are hard, you have to study for this class, she'll throw 'thought-provoking' questions at you to use different parts of the material at once. She's funny but DONT show up late and she takes attendance every class.

Goes very fast, yet still taking the full lecture time, and her teaching style personally does not speak to me. Her notes on the board are all over the place and not structured well. She also sometimes skips some steps when explaining an equation. She thinks she's so funny by being "mean and evil." Don't take her if you usually struggle with math.

Comment:
Point blank refused to provide answer keys for worksheets. Will only go over questions if you have a problem, so if you think you're on tract but are way off -- you're out of luck. Teaches theory-based rather than showing how to answer specific questions. I'm normally an A student and am really struggling. Never again with this lady.

If you need to take a math course I highly suggest do not take it with Natasha. She is very unclear in her teaching and makes you feel stupid for asking questions.

Do not take this class if you want to be a school teacher. You do not need to be lectured about teaching by her. She is dictatorial and moody, seeking to be the center of attention. This affects the clarity of her instruction. I really like math, but she did her best to take that out of me. Register in the other math courses.

Shes quite the character. Her lectures are a bit confusing at times, because she often explains concepts from a PURELY mathematical point of view. Also, lectures are mandatory! If you miss more than 6 classes, say goodbye to that 5 % participation mark. Her tests are quite long, and you can expect it to be a lot harder than the textbook.

- Be there every class. You miss some vital information for every class you miss. So if you miss a class, next classfew classes might not make sense at all. - You have to really know the material to pass her tests. - Therefore, unless you are prepared to do lots of work over the semester, taking her course may not be so beneficial to your GPA.

Horrible Teacher! If you have any common sense, DO NOT take her class. Sets you up for failure, very rude, thinks of herself as high and mighty, makes a fool of you if you ask a question, tests are ridiculous. Worst prof I have had so far! I used to like math, not anymore because of her! She will make you fail! STAY AWAY if you want to be happy!

Good person, not so good prof. Was constantly confused with course content, had to cough up huge for tutors. You mud use her methods, which aren't the easiest. Again, she's really fun, just isn't the best at teaching.

Math 1191 with Natasha was fun! She is a character!If she hadn't made the class so fun I would have had a hard time sticking to it because it is a lot of HARD WORK! She isn't the easiest to follow in lecture and goes very quick, but if she didn't we would never get through all the material. Two 3 hour sessions per week and 10-15 hours of homework.

I wish I had read the reviews before I took this. I knew it would be hard but not this hard. I was pretty mad the first class when I found out the horrible expectation. No late assignments, no late anything. Class starts early and ends late and lucky to get any breaks. She expected people to sing if their phone went off. Didn't learn anything.
