Comment:
Mrs. Stanica is intimidating, but underneath that, she is a caring professor who wants her students to succeed. In one class period, she covers a lot of material and you will fall behind if you are not there. Complete ALL of the packets she gives you and do the homework in the book. All of her test problems are similar to the ones in the book!

Stanica made me fall in love with math. Her unwavering admiration for the subject carries into her teaching. Keep up with the homework and you'll do fine on her quizzes. Go to her office hours - she is kind, knowledgeable, and endlessly patient. I can't thank her enough for her encouragement; she is by far the best math teacher I've come across.

Prof. Stanica is a great Math teacher I wish she was my teacher for previous math classes. She totally values hard work and dedication by telling you how proud she is of you. I took this class online because of a bad experience at a Junior College in Modesto and to say the least it was worth the 2 hour drive for exams.

Homework is not mandatory but it is recommended, if you do not want to struggle on quizzes/tests. Graded by quizzes and tests. Extra credit by doing chapter test review worksheets/packets. Makes math understandable and fun. Very chill and funny throughout class.

Comment:
I hate math. Prof. Stanica manages to make math understandable and almost fun. She clearly demonstrates multiple ways to solve problems. Fast-paced class - miss a few days and you'll fall seriously behind. Extremely fast grader, everything posted online. Optional comprehensive reviews for the tests that count for extra credit. Recommended.

Comment:
This class was like any average math class, but if you don't like sarcasm and being talked down on then beware!! This teacher is so rude to her students when you get something wrong. She spends half the class yelling at you instead of teaching and then will give you incredible amounts of homework. She also is prone to making many mistakes!!

I have always struggled in math but had gotten lucky with having two really good instructors for Math 360 and 361. I felt confident when I enrolled in her Math 261 class but she tends to yell at her students and insult them if they are not able to catch on as quickly as she likes. I don't respond well to insults, first class I've ever dropped.

Comment:
I had to drop Math 261 in the previous semester because I had not taken math in 15 years. I was very concerned with my previous professor because he was not available outside class. That said Gabriella was a true gem. She cares!! Be ready to work, but if you are. She will make time for you and put in the work with you. Take this class.

Comment:
Gabriela's greatest asset is her ability to clearly explain the same concept in a variety of different ways which helps students better understand concepts. Clear criteria and requirements, show up to class, take good notes. Overall, discrete math was one of the easiest classes I took at MPC. Good sense of humor. Would absolutely take again.
