Reviews of professor Kristen Hershberger

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
She made all the math easy to understand and allowed you to use cheat sheet notecard on each test. The labs were extremely helpful and always had problems similar to upcoming test questions. Would definitely recommend!

Gave weekly Aleks concepts and 1 written homework assignments that we worked in with lab partners every week, we split the work. Given the mat172 class I am taking now that I have to do everything myself, I would repeat this class. Lockdown browser w camera for tests, but I would prefer this class over the one I am taking now.

Mrs.Hershberger is a very nice professor.  She always cares about your well-being and is very understanding.  The tests were a bit harder than the classwork, but if you watch her videos and take notes they are not bad. She also grades the tests the next day and gives partial credit for most questions wrong. I would definitely take her class again.

best math instructor I've ever had. If you pay attention and complete the homework she assigns then you will get an A indefinitely. She responds to emails quickly if you have any questions and you can tell she truly cares about how you perform in the class

Gives excellent feed back on graded material. Lectures are given in a easy to follow manner and will patiently go over material again if you did not get the concept the first time.

Gives out the hardest homework problems that you do not understand how to do since you are told how to do an easy problem in class. Feel like she goes too fast in her lectures and does not really show how to be able to apply the concepts and truly understand them. If you are not a fan of having to memorize hard equations and rules don't take her.

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
pros: nice person cons: -HW & test are orders of magnitude harder than what is covered in class -she is accessible outside of class, but not very helpful; this class would've been a nightmare without the tutor at the school -the class was never fun or engaging - she skips steps, makes errors, and goes too fast when she does examples

Professor Hershberger is truly great. She's very nice, always willing to answer any questions, and provide more examples. The homework can be difficult sometimes, but the answer key to similar questions in the textbook are posted. Calc is generally seen as difficult, but if you're diligent and make sure to get the homework, you'll be good to go!
