Reviews of professor Laura Plunkett

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Laura is not only a great teacher but is also super caring about her students. She has somewhat of a geeky sense of humor (which was very appreciated) and makes sure that everyone understands the concepts. Homework doesn't take too long (we used a free online platform) and her exams are pretty easy if you review the practice tests. Take her class!

Loved her class. She made everything understandable. The feedback was great and she really cares for her students. Would take hers again.

Almost all of the teaching was done through a free online textbook resource that was co-written by the Professor. The class was well structured and she was lenient and understanding with deadlines for assignments. Very open to questions and new ideas in class. Also creates a welcoming environment for learning.

Laura is an average teacher that provides consistent content in the class. She prepares you by solving problems in class that directly correlate to the problems on the exams. Quizzes per week, homework takes about an hour, and exams are SUPER EASY. Show up an participate, do the HW, and study a few hours outside of lecture per week for an A.

She's always there for you, sends emails after grading every hw giving a tiny bit of feedback, always available for questions by email/office hrs. Her quizzes/exams can be p hard, so I'd emphasize studying/taking notes. hw is chill, you get some late passes and multiple attempts to get full cred. I had around an A- til I got a C on the final, oops

Took her Math for Elementary School Teachers in Spring 2020 semester. Shes an amazing professor & I genuinely looked forward to class. I hated math & was nervous that I couldnt teach math to kids. She helped me gain confidence in my math and teaching skills. She truly cares. Did great w/ mid semester transition to online class bc of COVID.

She is nice and helpful. She loves her teaching and cares her students. Her assignments maybe hard if you take her for first programming class. I had to complete weekly projects and lecture's assignments which are sometimes tricky. However, her quizzes and exams are straightforward and fairly easy. Just stay focus and you will get an A.

Most helpful professor ever. I used to have a really hard time with math since I had a severe lack of good teaching when homeschooled. Dr. Plunkett is such a fantastic teacher; she instilled in me a love and passion for math! She explains all concepts slowly and clearly, and her lectures so well organized. She really cares and wants you to grow!
