Reviews of professor Rachael Wood

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I would not take this professor again. She does not do any kind of review before tests and her test questions are harder than the actual lessons of what she taught. If you are going to take precalculus take it in person and not with her.

Honestly, it sounds like she rehearses her lectures in the bathroom. She sounds like a robot and is very heavy on her vocabulary. It doesn't even feel like a math class. Sometimes she doesn't even do mathematical examples to explain the concepts and it's hard to follow because I like to see it all worked out. She's also a very picky grader.

Lots of lectures and quizzes, but if you participate, you will learn from her. She's fantastic about breaking down concepts so you can understand them. She is by far the best math professor I've ever taken. She responds quickly and will help you if you're not understanding something.

She acts more like an English teacher than a math teacher. She cares so much about vocabulary but she doesn't put it on the test. She talks like shes reading out of a textbook, but we don't even learn the lesson out of the textbook. The lectures don't cover all of the material that is on the test. She doesn't give study guides.

Ms. Wood is a very caring professor. She teaches Math for Liberal Art I & II. She is so sweet and kind. Her lectures are amazing and straightforward. She also allows you to come during her office hours for help. EASY A! (:

Ms. Wood is the most caring teacher I have ever met. She is also extremely knowledgeable, and accessible out of class. Her office hours allowed me to gain an understanding in math that I wouldve never gotten otherwise. I am eternally grateful for Ms. Wood. If you put in the effort you will succeed. Amazing person, amazing teacher.

Go to her office hours; she is really accessible if you don't understand some concepts.

This was an online class and her video are the best I have ever seen. it is challenging to take an online class but she has these amazing videos you can watch. Her class, 1. watch videos, 2. practice, 3. take the quiz, and then after a section, take a test. This wasn't so much a heavy math class as it was more a concept math class.

By far the worst math professor Ive ever had, and thats just me being nice. Ive taken a calculus class before and passed with flying colors, now I take this one & struggle to pass. She doesnt care about math, shes more of an English professor. She cares more about definitions than problems themselves, & each problem is weighted worth 16 points

The tests are difficult. She doesn't give the review or study guide.
