Reviews of professor Jessica Tolchinsky

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I never was a math person.I really needed a C to be qualified for a program based major. I did not miss a class,went multiple times a week for math help with tutors, and even went to office hours bi weekly for extra help. Unfortunately it was not enough and she gave me a D+  just shy of 1 point away from the C I needed. Dropped out of URI after

Doesn't care about what you do in class, lectures are fast. She expects your math skills to be on point and will not show all steps (Beg of sem). She asks if you understand, although is clear through facial expression, if you don't speak up she will move on. Very tough grader, will not add points or curve tests. Avoid if possible, no hate.

Looked through the reviews. All the ratings of 5 seem fake. She does not really care about you as a student, even though your tuition is paying her salary. Class is lecture heavy, since it is a math class, but does not go over the fundamentals. TAKE CALC 1 WITH AYSE SHARLAND. She is under rated and is the instructor I am retaking the class with.

Really cool and understanding teacher, teaches you the material and will take plenty of time out and in class to go over harder topics.

Jess is a very kind professor while still vigilant and productive. I have much enjoyed learning with her thus far, and I appreciated her extensive help when I was unable to attend in-person because of a few sicknesses. You just have to reach out! She also is very good about making sure everyone understands and gets the notes down.

Jess has honestly made calculus understandable. She will meet with you outside of class absolutely any time that you need assistance with anything. She really tries her best to make sure everyone understands. The course does move rapidly but she does a great job at teaching the material so it is okay. I 100% recommend taking courses with jess.

Jessica is great at teaching math! She always tries to help people understand the content, and will make sure to help people with specific questions they have. I definitely recommend going to her office hours and making sure to ask questions in class. Although she is very limited by the course coordinator, she will try her best to help you pass.
