Comment:
This "Professor" does not teach during the lecture. Listen to what is being said by the other students here. You are better off staying another semester at CSUN, rather than taking her. She ruined Calculus for me.

Expects students to know most of the material before class. Does not answer student questions. She constantly has coughing attacks which makes it harder to learn the material

This was the worst teacher I have ever taken in my entire life of going to school. Do not take her class as you will regret every single minute of it as she does not explain or help you throughout the course in any way. DON'T DO IT.

Comment:
To call this woman a teacher is an insult to the profession. She does not care about her students, grades random parts of the homework, and writes incomprehensibly on the board. And when you ask for further explanation, it is not given. She has no desire to actually teach and the students suffer. DO NOT TAKE HER!

By far the worst teacher ever! Dont buy the book because she does not use it. But since you will have to teach your self!! You may want to buy the book or other helping books on the topics. Go to tutoring!!!!! It helps because she wont!

Comment:
Honestly I've never cared enough to write a review on any of the professors but Professor Simon changed that. She is by far the most frustrating and illogical person I've ever met. She grades extremely harsh and can't explain why she took off so many points when you have the correct answer. Don't take her, wait a semester if you have to. AVOID!!!

DO NOT RECOMMEND TO ANYONE! Never have I had a teacher this ridiculous. If you ask a question she will simply say you should know it already and move on to something else. Doesn't help you out on anything and test are graded very harshly. Do not take her unless you are good at math.

Comment:
This teacher does not care how you do or if you understand the material. Does not use the book. tests are graded harshly, she does not give partial credit- even if you have most of the answer correct. She will cough forever which can be very distracting- especially when taking a test. CSUN must make good money off her failing students retaking it

Only take her class if you already know the subject, has said herself she'd only expect someone who's taken it before to get an A. Everything other people have said is true. Doesn't teach, no lesson plan, makes careless errors constantly, has a million coughing fits (not her fault but very distracting and time wasting.) DON'T TAKE HER CLASS.

I should have listened to the comments. Honestly, I can say - DON'T take her unless you are VERY VERY good at Math! You won't pass! Homework does not prepare you for her test at all and she grades very hard. Everyone is miserable in this class and half the class dropped already!

Comment:
This professor has got to be the worst professor I have ever had. NOT capable of lecturing properly, and does not care if you are failing, the math department doesn't care either since all of our class is failing and they do nothing about it. She has got to be the worst mistake that dept. has ever made. I hate her.

BEWARE!!!!...you'll be miserable if you take her for trig. The biggest mistake of my life!!! Trig is an easy subject, but she makes it really difficult. She gives pop quizes EVERY class lecture which brings your grade all the way down. She does not curve and does not care if the whole class is failing. nothing good about her.
