Comment:
She is somewhat more accommodating and makes more of an effort to make her class accessible than some of the other math professors at Oberlin. She's good at giving hints that help you figure out the answer yourself and is accessible outside of class.

Comment:
In office hours, she doesn't give away answers, so you are better off figuring things out yourself. Tests throw me off because T/F is a big portion but has no partial credits. HW grading is slow, and she employs a scheme of , -, and +, corresponding to C, B, A. Only a perfect HW yields +, meaning any small mistake will reduce you to a (a B).

Nice person but not a great professor. She went too fast, didn't explain what she was doing, and the book was terrible so you couldn't use it for any additional help.

Comment:
Took Calc II with her and had a lot of trouble. Took it Pass/Fail after I got a 35% on the midterm. I got straight-A's in Calc I and a 5 on the AP test, so I don't know why I did so poorly. Something about her teaching style just didn't click with me. That being said, I knew several other people in the class who did fine.

Comment:
pretty unclear at times. small squeaky voice and eccentric ways. unhelpful at times. but does know what she is teaching and comes prepared to each class. is in control of the class and keeps you drawn to what's being taught. i guess, at the end of the day, that's all that matters. classy homework questions.exams are pathetically easy.

Comment:
I really liked Wilmer a lot. She is REALLY smart, and her lectures are thought provoking. She gives you a full bow when you answer questions in class. She's really sweet and brought cookies to our last class. She also gave us interesting problems that were hard enough to pique interest but not so tough that you give up. I'd recommend her.

High expectations - really expects attendance, though it's not mandatory. Holds a grudge. Not particularly helpful in office hours. Book was awful. Assigned a really hard, huge project in the second to last week of class. Hard. But good teacher, and nice.

Very into her subject matter, and likes to make class interesting. She's really good at helping out when you don't understand, or have questions about the subject matter. However, she doesn't just throw it out there, likes to let her students learn for themselves with some help from her.

boy she is hard to understand. her entire class is lecture, so if you are a "hands on" math learner, this is not for you. i was in Discrete with her, and by about mid-semester, half of the class had dropped out. only take her class if you are

I was so scared to take a math class. I'm a senior and I haven't taken math since 11th grade. But I am actually enjoying my class with her! She is amazingly smart and very helpful. Who would have thought that math could be fun?
