A really great choice if you are struggling with math. If you put the work in, she will too. She's very helpful and has lots of time for test retakes and office hours, as well as tutoring sessions that were every Wednesday. Really cares for her students.

Prof Vonjentzen helped me understand math better then any math teachers i had. She teachis problems in different ways so we learn it. She has high expectations & it can be a lot of work but if you put in time & effort, you can pass. When I go to her office, theres always students asking questions & taking tests. She is a kind patient prof.

One of the best professors ever

She helped me understand math a little better but is kind of rude. Multiple times she told me to go to office hours then never showed up. She isn't the best at replying to emails. She didn't help me come up with a plan for retakes since I'd be gone and said “it's unfortunate plan better next time” so I didn't pass the course.

She was pretty good at teaching math, but she doesn't separate her personal life from her professional life very well; it's very obvious when she is in a bad or good mood, especially if you take a lot of retakes. She also tends to like people with better social skills, so if you're neurodivergent, keep interaction to a minimum.

The book that you have to get for the class does not help with learning the content well at all it is very very minuscule and does not benefit very much when it comes to the test and the online lectures do not really help either with learning the content, as well as some of the test questions not having a prompt to them just the problem.

She cares about you passing, you just have to work for it and want it too. She is really nice and gets you to enjoy math. There are tests every week, but they aren't that bad if you show up.

Amanda overall is a great professor. Her grading is clear and she is always so helpful. Personally I found her more helpful during her office hours. In class if you ask her a question she will say What do you think? And will wait for someone to give the correct answer even if we havent gone over the material. She lets you retake tests.

Professor VonJentzen was an okay teacher, but I didn't really learn much during her class. She would take points off for small mistakes. You have a short amount of time to complete a test retake, and make sure your test is corrected on a separate sheet of paper. 

She can be really passive-aggressive when you do retakes or get help.
