LANDRY T B
Fantastic professor. Lectures were organized and the exams are basically the same as the practice exams. She gives A LOT of extra credit, my final score were actually 106%. HW are not very hard and she explain one or two of the HW questions during class. If you spend time in doing HW and understanding the practice exams then you are guarantee an A.
Makes math easy. Make sure to cover the practice tests before midterm/final. Don't mess up the final like me and go down a letter grade. Doesn't offer partial credit on exams so triple check you didn't make any calculation errors.
I tried taking 6A with two other (bad) professors before sticking with Landry. I found her lectures to be a little all over the place, but she would always upload them to Canvas. Homework is on Webwork. Two OPEN NOTE midterms and the lowest score gets dropped. Final was take home. I barely went to class and got an A.
Just focus on the practice exams and you'll be fine.
Worst professor ever
UCSB MATH DEPARTMENT'S FINEST!!!!! A true diamond in the rough I love Therese. Midterms are exactly like the practice and open note, so if you go to lecture, take notes, and do the practice test (aka bare minimum for a math class) you will get an A. ALSO 2 midterms, lowest score dropped. She speaks a bit quiet when lecturing, but easy to follow
Took her for MATH34B. The only reason I got an A was because her practice tests were exactly like the midterms, just with different numbers. Lectures and homework were focused on different material, and she did not teach it well. She did not know how to answer questions in class. To pass you must teach yourself the material.
Probably the easiest A I have ever had. Go to her office hours and she literally gives away the exam problems. 10/10 recommend.
Professor is horrible! She could care less about her students and their concerns. If you have any questions she will literally stare at you for 5+ min straight and say that she doesn't have an answer to your question. Her lectures do not allow you to learn, they confuse you way more. Please for the sake of your education do not take this professor.
Worst professor I have taken at UCSB! She doesn't help with any questions and the test/quizzes are heavy on your grade. Drink 10 cups of coffee before attending lecture and be prepared to self learn. Her lecture slides are not what is presented on the test and she is not reliable. DO NOT TAKE! also her reviews were nothing like the midterms.
WORST PROFESSOR EVER !She teaches math by talking, she only started working out problems until week 4. She doesn't know how to answer any questions and doesn't make time for students, literally runs away from you.Her lecture slides do not explain or help. Her exam reviews are nothing like the exams, she inputs material she hasn't taught into exams.
One of the worst professors that I have ever had. 70% of your grade is on tests and her tests are so random. Very unpredictable. Her teaching was horrible, doesn't teach good at all and her TA was awful too, not helpful whatsoever. Only good thing is the clicker that saves you towards the end because she does extra credit for that as well but no ty
