Prof. Smith is really great. Math has never been my strong suit, but I did really well in her class. She really values attendance and consistent effort. You can tell that she really cares about her students and really wants to help you learn the material. Take her for any class that you can, you won't regret it... she's awesome.

She is the sweetest professor ever, I adored her! Prof. Smith goes very slow, which allows you to do the homework in class and get a clear understanding of the material. She gives you the answers to the clicker questions and makes sure you are prepared for exams. Take this woman if you can!!

Professor Smith loves her students and really wants to see them succeed. She really teaches for understanding and is available in her office hours for additional help. She is truly the best and I am trying to take her again next semester. 10/10

Comment:
At the beginning of the semester I had a different teacher and I was really struggling in calculus, but then Ms. Smith took over after two weeks and I never would've expected a math experience to be this great, she explains things really well. She even once said "I always try to make things as easy as possible" if you can take her, do it!

i want to update the information on smith. she does not do extra credit for tests, her tests are insanely hard ( i am a good student and test taker and the class average would be 65) but she does drop homework grades -doesnt help tho. i would not take her again because the tests are so bad. i would know how to do every question and still get a 57.

Shes very kind and helpful!! She teaches well and makes the lessons easy to understand! She also always has sessions outside of class if you did not fully understand the material during class! Only complaint is that she takes off points on tests easily.

She's such a great professor! Best I've had by far! She is very kind and approachable and really cares about her students success. She tries to make the material as easy as possible and gives plenty of opportunities to seek help or extra help if needed. She has got your back! Definitely take her if you can.

Comment:
Mrs. Smith is really sweet and gives you a lot of opportunities for help. The homeworks are due the night before the test so you don't get counted off for not knowing the answers right away. She gives you a practice test that is fairly close to the actual test. Only bad thing is she does grade pretty harshly on the tests, and they are fairly hard

Dr. Smith gave awesome lectures. She made all the material easier to understand and broke it down into the simplest terms possible. The homework was easy and she offers help via email as well. She also offers numerous review sessions for tests. She takes attendance everyday on top of clicker quizzes, but going to class is essential anyways.

Kim Smith makes this class so much harder than it actually is, she spends half the class rambling about irrelevant stuff and then tries to fit in the lesson. On tests, she takes points off so easily. She does not prepare you for the final at all. Don't get me wrong, she is one of the nicest people you will ever meet,she's just not a good teacher.

Kim Smith is honestly one of the best math teachers I've ever had! You can tell she genuinely cares about her students and wants them to succeed and really get the material. She does review sessions before the exams, and she's always there to help whether it be email or by appointment. She's very easy to learn from, just make sure to attend class.

Sweetest woman ever but very picky when it comes to how she wants to see work done. Homework examples seem like a breeze and test questions are much more challenging.

She was the sweetest person ever. My only issue with her was that she took points off on tests way to easily and for irrelevant things. Im pretty good at math and struggled in this class at times, so be ready to study.

Definitely definitely wants to make sure you understand the material. Shows how to do homework problems in class. Let's you do makeup points on one of the tests. Clicker points every class. Very nice & sweet lady. Taught in a manner that helped many of the students

Kim was a great teacher. I didn't think this class would be difficult, but the material sometimes was. However, she would always ask if we had questions and would work problems for us in class, so I always did our homework during her lectures. As long as you listen in class, there is no reason you can't do well. Take her!!!!

I honestly was lazy during this class and ended up missing 2 classes and still made an A. Do take into account though, if you are not a natural at math, you should attend class. She counts points off on tests easily but always tries to help you out before exams. Make sure to do webassign and study your written quizzes. Also offers extra credit.

Kim smith is one of the nicest professors I have had but her class is very tough. She is a very hard grader and her tests and exams are near possible. She uses web assign examples during her lectures but the problems she does are not near as difficult as the ones on the test. She also hates when you miss even just one class.
