Reviews of professor Maria Purcell

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
At first, the class was okay, but she constantly reminded the course that she hadn't taught Calculus I in over five years. The more she reminded herself about that, the more she was anxious to teach the class. The homework and review do not correspond to the exams or quizzes. She does not grade on time; I still do not know where my grades stand.

She makes her notes from the book so you don't need the book. She would provide notes to work on. 6-7 quizzes throughout the semester, 3 exams + 1 final and Pearson HW. No mid term. Hilarious teacher. Did not take final for our class only exam 3. Ask for help if needed. Exams have calculator and non calculator parts. Be honest with lectures :)

Overall, I thought she was a good teacher and tried to help us as much as possible by helping us with homework when we needed help as a class and tried to make math more relatable in the real world. She did a phenomenal job trying to teach us financial math and was very lenient because of how short the course was. Though she is late on grading.

Took this course during the fall for algebra and honestly one of the easiest courses. She was very understanding with the amount of work had to do. We did have to buy third party access to do our homework but if you pay attention and do your work on time you'll be fine. She also has ALL of her lessons in YouTube videos they were really helpful!

profPurcell is an amazing person. But she was not the best grader,i didnt have any of my grades put in for the whole semester until 2 weeks after the class ended.i was told i was doing alright and that motivated me to continue the class instead of dropping it. Her time was taken up by another class and it seemed like she didnt have anytime for us.

She is very sweet and funny teacher. She would work out all problems in the class and gives review sheets for exams. She has her own notes. Take lectures seriously you will pass the class. 3 exams and 1 final, 7-8 quizzes (1 page) and online homework on Pearson. We didn't had a final she replaced it with exam 3 (easier). Be sincere with work, get A
