Reviews of professor Elizabeth Ben Ward

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
She's really caring about her students. Replaces lowest test grade with final exam grade if it's higher. You have to buy the homework website but you get 2 tries on each question so it's not hard to do well. There are 3 tests and you get a cheat sheet.  It's more reading than math which was good for me because personally, I'm not too good at math.

Calc is hard and my worst subject but she did a pretty good job explaining. I was worried when I saw previous reviews but Ben was caring and made extra time to help if you needed. Part of our grade was in class class questions and homework. Tests were hard but she gives practice exams and you get a notecard.

Very disorganized. Graded my first exam a month late. Makes lots of excuses for her lateness. I asked her if she could make my grade unlocked on canvas so I could see my average and she started going on about her point system and did not answer my question at all or tell me my grade. Her voice is also super annoying lol.

Please, just don't take her. This is hands down the worst class I've ever taken and its just because of her.

This class was a train wreck. Most of the tests/quizzes we took had errors and points had to be given back, the tests were not related to the homework or class, lectures were confusing and didn't explain how to actually do the calculations. I had the 8am section Dr. Ward was late frequently and cancelled class 20 minutes before it started. DO NOT.

She was a fine math teacher, but she was so disorganized. She lost my test and almost made me retake it, I showed up to her office hours to take a test, but she forgot so she rescheduled it for the next week when I showed up for the second time she wasn't there at all and some other math teachers had to call her and print out the test for me.
