Reviews of professor Lisa Berry

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Shes really sweet and very helpful if you go to her outside of class, but if you havent taken precalc before you might struggle to understand her during lectures. She goes pretty fast and teaches practically right out of the book without explaining much. I had to teach myself a lot. But once she brought her dog to class!

Literally the worst teacher I've ever had. She is not willing to help if you have technical issues and is not understanding. If you want to do well, u better hope you're a perfect student.

By far the WORST class and professor I have taken at SMU. Avoid her and this class if you can. She doesn't respond to emails, doesn't help students out, makes you do lots of homework, quizzes and tests (which are all very hard). The class averages on tests were all D's and C's. The class is super hard and she doesn't make it any easier. BEWARE

Class is very straightforward but if you run into any issues it's almost impossible to work with her to a compromise. I once didn't hear back from her for over a week and then received no credit for a test even though I emailed her within 24 hours that the test wasn't showing up for me. She's unorganized but if you do the HW, you'll pass.

Literally the worst human I have ever encountered. So many people struggled in her class. She ruined my gpa and I had to take her class again. I thankfully got Judy Newell (best teacher ever). I came into her office hours EVERY time and it was no help. Her tests felt like another language. EVEN my tutors hated her. DO NOT TAKE THIS AWFUL CLASS!!!!!

She seems like a nice person but isn't the best at teaching. She moved fast and taught straight out of the book. Take home quizzes help grade but problems put on tests and final she sometimes makes A LOT harder than necessary. Make use of office hours, she teaches better one on one. Tests are 10 problems, 60% of grade. 10% quizzes, 30% final .

1307 is already an easy topic but under Prof. Berry it is a breeze under the condition that you do the hw, come to her lectures, and actually put in minimal work. She is willing to work with anyone to make sure that they do their best in her class. five tests (10 questions each), 10 quizzes, 1 cumulative online hw grade, and 1 final (20 questions.

this is the worst course I have ever taken in my life. not only is it difficult, but the tests are so specific that even if you miss a single decimal point it is wrong. feels like its impossible to pass this class. DO NOT TAKE

Shes a mess. My grade went from an A to B+ for reasons that dont really make sense.
