Reviews of professor Lauren De La Rosa

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Inaccessible as a professor.  If you have questions, don't expect them to be answered in any way that helps you.  No TA either.  When you do get a response, which is days later, she just regurgitates what was written in ALEKS (which is littered with errors and incomplete information).  Ridiculous amount of homework.  Avoid at all cost.

She is very kind. She gives a good decent amount of questions for the exams. She reviews in class and encourages to go to office hours. I went many times and she helped me get rid of my doubts step by step. She gives opportunity for extra credit as well.  Everything is on ALEKS just turn stuff on time and you will be fine.

I had her as my recitation leader for MATH1720. She's Amazing and very helpful. She is very thorough with her explanations and examples. Attendance was only required on the days that quizzes are given, and she lets you know in advance when the quizzes will be. Her test reviews are extremely helpful, and are definitely worth going to recitation for.

Choose another professor! She treats students with no respect, and will talk down to you in email. The ALEKS textbook requires you to complete lots of homework each week that's almost impossible to do. The professor doesn't know how to help explain and educate students on algebra topics when asked for assistance on them.

She's a good professor overall. I never had trouble getting in touch with her through email as she was always very accommodating. Assignments are on ALEKs and sometimes ALEKs does a better job teaching than she does, but fortunately the questions on her tests are much easier than the problems on ALEKs. Helpful to go to her office hours too.

I had her for business calc and thought she was great! Always gives lots of time for student questions, her reviews were very helpful, and she gives a reasonable amount of homework on knewton but it really helps learn the topics. She's really good at explaining answers too.

I took Ms. De La Rosas class online during the pandemic and even though it was her first semester teaching after she graduated, she was really helpful. She provides notes for you to fill in which is really helpful for an algebra class. She provides a review with answers before the tests. The tests are usually really close to the reviews too.
