Reviews of professor Ionna Mavrea

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Mavrea was my last straw. Like others said, her grading was cruel for no reason. She was constantly sending aggressive emails about how things were going to get stricter and stricter. I would NOT recommend taking her.

This is my second time taking 300. It is not an easy course, but the professor made it seem doable. She met me outside office hours every week to help me keep up with the material. Her lecture notes (which she posts) were also very helpful. I am hoping to take her again for graph theory next semester.  Great prof!

This is a proofs course and it is not easy but Mavrea made it simple. Her lectures are a must! With her help I feel ready for 311. A nice lady also.

Mavrea has very high expectations for you to keep up with the work, but is hands down the best professor I have ever had. She provides a lot of out-of-class help and is very helpful if you ask questions, and her worksheets are really good. She was very considerate and regraded assignments to try and give us more points. Very nice and very helpful.

Definitely a super nice professor and amazing lecturer. She really cares about her students. She gave us worksheets with lecture notes, problems (and answers) for every section we covered. Those and the exam reviews (that also came with answers) prepare you for the common exams. I learned the most I've ever had in a math course!
