She is an awesome stat teacher! I was awful at math in high school, but I have a 98 in her class! If you go to class and pay attention, she explains everything very simply and understandable. Her tests and quizzes are really easy. Take stat with her it will be the best choice ever

Comment:
Don't take her class unless you are able & willing to reteach yourself most of the material. She is old and sweet, but very forgetful. Doesn't answer questions well (if at all). Sometimes it is difficult to understand her writing & accent. Doesn't always cover what she assigns in the homework.

Comment:
If you enjoy being treated as a child you will likely enjoy prof Lander's class. Prof Lander spends 10-15 mins of a 50min class checking homework and taking attendance. We covered little more than mean, median, and mode in the first 5 weeks of class (Statistics). She's a kind heart, but anyone seriously invested in learning, consider other options.

She doesn't do very well at explaining things. If she can't explain it well enough she says you should have learned it in High School(10 years ago for me). That on top of her thick accent makes it even more difficult.

Comment:
As someone who enjoys math I was not at all prepared to take this course. Unless you are good at teaching yourself, understanding chicken skratch of writing, an occasionally thick accent and poor examples in the place of a lesson, do not take this class. She doesn't answer questions well.

Comment:
I was excited to take another Math class, I have always done well in the subject. However, she was very hard to understand and every time someone asked a question, it seemed she thought they were dumb. She once scheduled a retest for me and not only did she not show up, but 2 days later in an email she said I cannot take it now. Terrible class.

She was the worst teacher I've ever had. I love math and have never had a problem with it and I almost failed that class. Do not take calc with her.

I had a really hard time understanding her. Her accent is pretty thick. Plus it probably doesn't help that it was the first time taking calc. The homework was pretty easy, but the tests could be quite the headache. Overall a good teacher when I could understand her.

Has difficulty responding to students when they don't understand any concept. She assumes you should understand any math problem after being given one example. One word, frustrating.

Teacher is very sweet. She has an accent but you do get use to it. She is very helpful and makes sure you understand the material before moving on. You must attend all classes to get a good grade because the course moves very quick. I never missed class and always did my hw and I got an A.

Maruja is a cute little lady who is an excellent teacher. she is a liberal grader and doesn't take many point off for mistakes. she gets a little fussy if you miss class but other than that you shouldn't have any problems with her. she offers 4 points of extra credit on all of her exams. quizzes were taken straight from the homework. RECOMMENDED!!

Very good professor! She's absolutely right about math becoming easier with repetition.If you have trouble understanding her, sit at the front of her class.Did these two things throughout semester and got an A- no problem.

She was extremely helpful and never turned anyone away. Other Math Prof. would not take the time in class to review homework and she did. She was very fair with grading, even generous. I highly recommend her compared to alot of other Math instructors.

she is really really helpful. she made things easy by explaining clearly. I never had any problems understanding her though she has an accent. Its usually pple who sits in the back and daydream that complain about her. I mean math is not rocket science but its hard. u need to pay attention if u are in the class. All i can say is recommend her

Class wasn't to hard but she's very difficult to understand, listening to her accent can get frustrating, she does make a few mistakes writing things down. Overall though she's nice and will help you if you need it... still, I can't say I recommend taking her classes.

Comment:
She constantly wrote equations inaccurately (or completely wrong) or solved things incorrectly. Sometimes you cannot even understand her writing and she does not explain things well at all. I have loved math my entire life, I took advanced classes in high school and including college I haven't gotten below an 85 or so, I think I have a 60 with her.
