Reviews of professor Vanessa Coffelt

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I would do anything to get to take another class with Dr Coffelt. She is so awesome, so fun, so easy to work with, and so consistent. Always ready to answer questions or meet with you and is very clear in her grading policies. Amazing

Ms. Coffelt was such a kind professor and very accessible outside of the classroom. I struggled in the beginning of the course when I solely relied on the math helpdesk. To be fair, it's a tough course as is. Once you get to know her more, you can tell she cares so much about her students and wants you to succeed. She's amazing! I'll miss her.

Compared to every other math prof I've had, Coffelt is amazing. Lectures are thorough and easy to understand. Lots of webassigns for homework that can get time consuming but will get you to where you understand the material well. Would recommend if you've struggled in math classes before. Overall a very good professor.

Professor Coffelt is nice, but she does not teach the class material well. Class has heavy homework load and three exams, plus a final. Class may have been easier if she could have taught the material better, but her instruction is unclear and unhelpful. She is extremely strict.

Many students are already overwhelmed when they find out they have to take calculus, and this professor does not help at all. She makes calculus more complicated than it needs to and her problems during class as well as homework are not good representations of what is on the test. If you can avoid taking her, please do!

One of the better profs here at Texas A&M. 
Clear lectures, attendance counts, and clicker questions offer extra points. 
Homework: online 2x week, 6 attempts per Q. 
Exams: 65% of grade, picky grader, no curves/extra credit. She is intimidating but emails back quickly and plays our favorite songs before lectures!! She also attends the SI sessions.

Hard class, definitely plan for it to take up a lot of time. Coffelt is a good prof, just intimidating, but also understanding if she sees you're actually trying. Good amount of homework. I hate Cengage, but that's a me thing. Tests were hard but she also told you what to expect. Math lab is a joke, Python is awful, def make friends in lab.
