Comment:
Would not recommend Deterding. She expects you to know everything before she even teaches it which results in her just doing problems without explaining and you just have to figure it out. Even if you ask for help she treats you like you are a knucklehead. Sure shes nice, but what does that have to do with math.

Be prepared to take notes off of videos and do a lot of homework. During the zooms we would go over things we had questions on so the teaching is really left to you. She is a nice professor but you really need to work hard because the tests are a big chunk of your grade. Her policy is that you need a 70 min. on your test average to pass the class!

She is nice BUT never grades ON TIME EVER. I took this class online and be prepared to be doing math 12 hours a week total to earn a decent grade. You need a C average on ur tests in order for u to pass her class. Shes makes excuses for not grading on time and takes forever to reply to ur emails. Shes very nice but makes you do a lot in her class

Comment:
Professor Deterding is the absolute worst instructor I have ever had. She does not give you points for anything. She wants her students to fail. She has no sympathy. You can try as hard as possible in her class and she will fail you. I have never met a teacher that has had such content with failing a student, until I had Chaylce Deterding.

She is such a good instructor, i personally had not had the chance to take a math class in 13 years and i was a little worried about it , but she gives good explanations and solve all the doubts. With the material she gives about the topics you can re watch the videos which will help you to understand better.

Trust me when I say, professor Deterding CARES about her students and WANTS to see them excel. She is so understanding and genuine, I've never had a professor like her. I did online, and the program ALEKS was easy to follow and understand. So far my time at ECC, I respect and appreciate her most out of other professors!

Any higher level math class you take is going to be hard. You need to be able to put in a lot of hours and hard work to succeed. One of the most beneficial things you can do is pick a teacher who teaches a hard class very well. This is why I recommend taking her. Very organized teaching style, very fair grader, always willing to meet outside class.

She is such an amazing professor! She really encourages her students to visit her during her office hours. Please do!!! You can tell she loves what she does and wants everyone to learn. Gives lots of homework that'll help prepare you for the test.

She is really good with her teaching skills and knows what she is doing. She is very organized and gives you notes for lectures. If you want to pass you must do all her homework, and keep scoring good on the tests and quizzes. it is not an easy class. You have to earn your grade. She is always there to help outside class. Very very good teacher.

Her lectures make the concepts about as easy to understand as any mere mortal can make calculus. She is very nice to students and has a sense of humour. You really should do your homework, but that's just a calculus thing more than it is the professor

Fantastic Calculus teacher, she really made class exciting because she loved math. Really helpful, visited her office once in a while and really helps you understand the information. I took Calculus in High School and struggled, but I have been doing much better now because of her. Overall a good class.

She knows what she is doing, but sometimes she is rushed. She is a great instructor and is always willing to help at every corner. Stats is no easy course, but she seems to lighten the load! Solid choice, but keep in mind that it is no easy A, you must work for it! Beware of some projects, they're worth a lot of points!

Overall she was a very approachable and understand professor, but her tests weren't similar to what she taught during class. The projects she assigned were not very helpful in understanding what we learned in class. She always offers extra help & if you take a stats class with s.i. Sessions included that helps a lot !! take advantage of tutoring!!

One of the Math teachers I have ever got a chance to work with. Her teaching strategy is awe-inspiring and she is always there for you. But be prepared for some homework almost every other class. Tests are decent.

Mrs D does give hard exams, but if you do all the homework and go to her office hours with questions its helps tremendously. The organizational skills she had us do at first i did not like, but found it was super helpful as the semester went on. If you are serious about school take her class.
