Reviews of professor Alina Altidor

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
She is good when it comes to helping students in office hours, but lecturing style is poor and does not give great feedback on exams. When you ask to go over a question on an exam, she is confused herself because she cannot even do the problems herself. Homework is easy, but exams are way harder (especially the final which was unnecessarily hard).

The most generous professor with deadline extensions that you will ever meet. Ever. Ever. Just ask and she'll give you months extra to complete the homework and she'll push the test as far back as the class wants, literally months. She's an alright teacher but she is so sweet and wants everyone to get a good grade. The class isn't easy though.

Easiest Math Professor in Bentley, genuinely caring woman who will do everything to make you succeed.

Lots of mixed opinions so I will give a clear cut answer. Means well. Personality-wise she is a nice human being. She is lenient with giving extensions, but this is because she is a late grader. She puts in grades extremely late. She does not attempt to engage class, and her explanations/examples could be worded better. Exams are somewhat hard

She is so helpful during office hours. Most people taking her class took calc in high school. Exams are only a total of 50% of the grade. Effort, conduct participation and conduct go a long way. I'm a weak calc student and still got a 4.0 with long study hours, doing all the homework and going to office hours. I got As and Bs on the exams.

Professor Altidor is very nice and is willing to help her students but she isn't a very good lecturer for MA 139. She does not explain the material very well, yet gives quizzes every class. Homework is worth 40% of our grade, which is nice but exams are harder than in class problems and quizzes, and the final was absolutely brutal.

Definitely the best professor I've had so far!She is an outstanding professor who gives very easy, short quizzes and exams. Very helpful during office hours and will completely reteach any topic or work any problem you don't understand. Also generous with homework deadline extensions. Very kind and caring professor. Definitely take her!

Ive already taken calc in high school, so having to relive it at Bentley was pretty uninteresting. Altidor has a VERY slow pace of class and its enough to put kids asleep. Explains the concepts well, she just takes forever. Quiz almost every day, often falls behind schedule compared to the rubric. Assessments are very easy. Easy 4.0 but very dull

Overall Professor Altidor is the worst math teacher I have ever had in my whole entire academic career. Not only is she a horrible explainer, she also teaches in class directly from the textbook, giving bad examples, and constantly contradicted herself. Along with that she mumbles constiently and it is almost impossible to understand her. AVOID
