Reviews of professor Rebecca Steiner

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
This was my 2nd time taking this class and it was so much better than last time with a different teacher omg. There were blank note handouts we could fill in. There was only one homework problem a week and she posts full solutions. I got tons of partial credit on homework and exams where I didn't think I would. Why are other math teachers so bad...

I learned more from YouTube videos about Linear Algebra than I did from Dr. Steiner. She often cancels class at the last minute, and he lectures are extremely boring. If you ask a question, she will sometimes ignore it or tell you she won't answer at all. She grades tests and homeworks difficultly. Save yourself and your GPA and don't take her.

It is a hard class. But I was more prepared then my peers in other sections with other teachers. She has a lot of office hours and she is very patient with you. She also gave extra credit which not all teachers do. If you want to learn the material well and your willing to put in effort, take her. If you need an easy A, tho, take someone else :)

Took this class in F2022. It was not an easy class but I dont think it would of been easy with any prof. This prof responds to email fast, even late at night. Sometimes the hw asked us to look at stuff we didnt learn yet but I liked that those hws were extra credit. Tests are at night, so you get 1.5 hrs for a 1 hr test. She posts all the handouts.

I had to be absent a lot due to illness and this teacher worked with me, unlike some others.  She emailed me notes, gave extensions on homework, and let me reschedule a test.  This class was one less thing to worry about when I was sick.

Good class. You have to show up, tho.

Dr. Steiner explains concepts very thoroughly, almost too much. She takes notes slowly and is always helpful if a student needs clarification. However, the class is very lecture heavy and you rarely get a chance to talk with others. If you're the type of person that can just learn from lectures and notes (which she doesn't post) you'll be fine.

Professor states that attendance is not mandatory, yet notes are not posted so anytime you miss you're behind. It was very helpful being given printed notes that we fill in the blanks during lecture. There is an online hw and a written hw due each week. Very strict about honor policy, taken to court over a 10 point hw assignment only 20% of grade.

Her lecture style is similar to high school math classes with fill in the blank packets for each section. If you learn well from that style of teaching, you will massively benefit from having Steiner. She is generous with partial credit on exams, which is nice since missing a negative sign or two could screw you over with other professors. 10/10.
