Comment:

Do not take this class for calculus 2. She constantly rushes through material to where you dont understand what the math you are just scrambling to get things down. The tests are extremely hard. She shows 1 problem on zoom and gives you 4-6 minutes to finish it and if you didn't finish it in the 4 minutes too bad.

Comment:

She has very high expectations. Her exams are hard. She will test you sometimes outside the book only from lecture. You will be lost after lecture. She does have curve quizes after every test so that is nice of her. She rushes through lecture and is intimidating to ask questions during her office hours. Overall, I dont recommend she made calc2 hard

Dr. Rush has been my favorite professor in my college career thus far! Her lectures are very quick, and often I left not understanding anything that happened. But, she is always available during office hours, and very accommodating if need be. During office hours she explains the material at a slower, easier to understand pace. Great prof.

I loved Professor Rush! Her lectures are very clear, although she does go quite fast sometimes. If you ask her politely to slow down or repeat she will understand. There is quite a bit of homework, but if you are going to understand math then there has to be. Tests are very similar to the homework. I would highly recommend Professor Rush.

It says it in her name! She RUSHES! She goes over material very fast and doesn't take the time to make sure everyone is following along. She lectures as if she is just solving a problem on her own and mumbles. After she completes example, she asks if everyone is okay but students are still trying to write all her work down. Very confusing and awful

Dr. Rush is great, her lectures were very informative and if you study the homework and quizzes then you should pass the midterm and final. She also goes over homework questions if you are stuck. I basically loved the way she taught the class. I feel like I learned a lot.

Comment:

Dr. Rush is very a genius. She is very knowledgable about mathematics but is able and will mix other subject into it, hence the confusion. This is the reason her labs are confusing. She is very reflective of her mood with he teaching. I was in a disrespectful class so she was kind of harsh. Do your homework, seek office hours and be polite!

Comment:

The homework from the book is confusing as well as the lectures. The labs were insanely difficult and left half the class stumped. The labs also included chemistry which made it even worse. Most times she just goes on about the lecture and half the class will be lost. Grading is harsh and unfortunately I might have to retake this class.

Student-led learning - the instructor was there only to grade the weekly quizzes and give hints to figuring out any problems. Told this was a "no-homework" class. I have had programming classes before, but I did not finish the modules in the allotted time, and I re-did them before each quiz, the midterm, and final; still unable to finish the final.

Had this teacher for both of my math classes and she is intimidating, she is very smart and if you are a nice class she is nice back, once she knows her class, she is much more engaged to the students and is a nicer teacher. If your participate she likes it alot, if your wrong she doesnt make a fool out of you, you need to earn your grade in this.

She knows what she is talking about. I like her as a teacher but as a person. Called me out in class for going to the bathroom. If you do the homework and study a little bit, you should pass the class with at least a B.

This teacher is hard, but you just need to show up everyday and do homework because she collects randomly, shes good with passing back work. Also her labs are really difficult, you never know if you even did it right beacuse youre on your own. hard class. but shes a nice teacher overall. she tries her best.

She is a very strict professor. Hard a difficult time understanding her lectures and rarely helped. Pretty much if your comprehend fast and easily then you won't have a problem. If hard a hard time understanding material I HIGHLY recommend you do not take her class, just being honest.

I had a hard time with this professor. She made things more complicated! I would like it if she could make her work more easier on the students. She has this expectation of you to understand her complicated steps which most of us don't get. Her last name definitely describes her. She goes way too fast on her lectures. Be prepared if you take her.

First of all: NOT r*cist. Second: Dr. Rush is a good professor, but I feel she had very high expectations for a pre-calc class. If you are comfortable with math, then you will do fine in her class. She has good office hours and offers a lot of chances to learn from your mistakes and improve your grade. She grades homework, too, so yay!

She has pretty high expectations and there is a lot of material to cover. Her grading system allows for improvement, so take advantage of that. Work hard, pay attention, and NEVER get behind, and you'll make it. Never quit.
