Though the explanation aren't as clear as I want to, but she put in a lot of effort to make things easy to understand, which is really a nice professor. Also, the homework and exams in general are easy to pass.

The tests were straightforward and reflected practice and homework. She answered my emails and questions promptly and even followed up to make sure I wasn't still confused. Her lectures are a good pace and she mainly focused on core concepts.

Best math professor I've had at UCSB. Lectures are super clear with homework that gives good practice of the concepts. Weekly quizzes that are easy As if you did the HW. Midterm and final both had practice tests that were very similar to the actual thing.
