Jenny is very good at what she does. Her explanations are very sophisticate and yet easy to understand. She makes sure you are learning what is important and always tries to help you understand different concepts. All in all, she's a real gem and a great professor.

Probably the best math teacher I have ever had, and saying that during COVID remote learning, is a big deal. She was much more prepared than any teacher I've seen and she does a wonderful job explaining the material. She's very nice and patient. If like math, this teacher is the best teacher to choose! I loved her.

She is a good professor who teaches the class very well. The issue for me personally was staying focused during the whole lecture. They were 2 and a half hours, and even though we did get a break, it was hard for me to focus. This isn't on her, because if you do pay attention and do the hw you'll be fine. Would recommend to someone w/ math major.

My favorite professor I've ever had. Took her courses for calc 1 and calc 2. The grade relies heavily on the tests, but they are reasonable. She makes note packets for each lesson that really help follow along during the lectures. She has a sense of humor during lecture which makes for a good classroom environment. Organized setup in canvas.

She is the worst professor, do not take her you. Her exams are nothing like the homework or the quizzes. I waste a semester taking this class. It is a 3 unit class but she makes a 6 unit with the work she gives. She is a bad professor.

Math245 Please FIND A DIFFERENT class because she will disappoint you. If you tell her I have other responsibilities, she does not care. She will not support you, she had 35 students at the beginning of the semester but she ended up with 15 students.I do not even know if some of these students ended up passing her class. DONT TAKE HER & WASTE TIME.

Love this professor. I feel like she explains things very clearly. She gives a lot of helpful handouts (or pdfs of helpful handouts if online). Its obvious she spend a lot of time preparing note taking materials for the students. Very willing to help. She wants you to participate and be an active part of the class. Reasonable expectation of class.

Comment:
Jenny always made good comments on tests given back. She returned tests about a month after they were taken partially because of COVID. 10 take-home quizzes that added up fast and were easy points. Tests were a lot easier than the study guides. 1st test was straight forward, but the last 3 had curveballs. Can be condescending at times.

Took her during the covid-19 crisis and transitioning from lecture to online was a bust, tests have nothing to do with the homework and the take home quizzes are hit or miss if you have someone else to help. Unfair in exams and lecture barely helped with homework or exams. She was the only one teaching the class, but I would've taken someone else.

She's a delightful professor to have. But be warned, the class is pretty difficult compared to Calc and Linear A because of the proofs she expects you to do and she does ask you to define terms precisely on the exams, so memorize them word4word. At the end, she will care for you if you keep asking for help and you will learn a lot from this class.

I'm not understanding all of these positive reviews. This is one of the most frustrating math classes I have taken. Your grade is based off 3 tests, a few quizzes, and a final. Homework is assigned from the book but not graded. The homework doesn't reflect exams. She does proofs differently. Problems on exams are harder than those done in class.

She's honestly a terrible teacher. I understood nothing, some because I did not have experience with calc, and some because she did a terrible job of explaining anything. Don't expect to be taught anything, she expects you to know it before taking it. She goes over hw,then gives bad lectures. I recommend anyone else if you want to pass or learn.

Great professor! Math isn't my strongest subject but taking two semesters of math with her made it bearable! I understood more math than I ever had!! She helps you out on a lot of homework problems and even the basics. Greatly recommend! Taking her again for Math 280.

She is a great professor. Homework is not mandatory or part of your grade but it helps you A LOT in your test and quizzes. Her exam is not easy or too hard just about right. If you don't do the homework you will be lost.

A truly wonderful professor. This is the second class Ive taken with her and she by far the best professor Ive had in my two years here. Her lectures were never boring and shes the only reason Im still interested in math. Shes enthusiastic about what she teaches and I highly recommend taking a class with her at least once.

Pay attention and do the work and you will pass. She has study guides for every test and the homework is online. her calc180 class has a physical homework option but i recommend online as it includes videos to explain problems if you need it. She goes over homework in class too, but she only has so much time to do so. She's an amazing professor.

She is a great teacher and she tries to make the subject less complicated. very straightforward, patient and explains hard concepts pretty well. Gives a short take home quiz every week, optional homework practice problems, and a review sheet before the quiz. Her tests are a little hard but she tries her best to set the students up for success.

Taking her was difficult. She doesn't seem to be much help. You're pretty much on your own because she will only go off easy examples that can be found anywhere, but immediately makes things harder. Homework isn't mandatory. There is no extra credit. She is strict on attendance as she even dropped a person even after the date because she assumed.

Don't take this class unless your a math genius. When she lectures she skips steps, assuming people can read her mind & know where she got the answer. The only things grade book: 4 exams at 60%, 5-6 quizzes at 20%, and the final at 20%. DO the homework even though she doesn't grade it. she doesn't give extra credit, if she does it'll be 1-2 pts.

Her handouts were amazing and she is very patient to explain any confusing topics. Your grade is primarily determined by the take home quizzes and the exams, so be sure to study for them.
