Reviews of professor Maria Purcell

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Purcell is one of the best math teachers I've ever had in my life. Very engaging and understanding. 3 exams and 1 final. She put time and effort to make sure her students are well prepared for each test. She also has a Final study session with pizza for everyone. I would take professor Purcell's class for any math you have to take.

I took College Algebra and Business math taught by her, and honestly was my favorite professor at University Park. Easy class if you paid attention; the lectures were constantly engaging, and makes some hilarious jokes, homework every week, and quizzes every couple of weeks. She cares for all her students and is passionate about what she does.

Prof. Purcell is AMAZING! I absolutely loved her 1324 class. Key thing: go to class and pay attention. That's it. She hands out notes to follow along in lectures, and practice probs too. The other students in my class failed bcz they missed a lot of classes/were late. She always graded my stuff on time. My easiest math ever (and I'm a Busi major)

I took this class over the summer online, now me being not the best at math made this course pretty difficult. She has a lotttt of lectures and 3 tests and a final. Purcell knows how to explain a concept very thoroughly, but get ready to work a lot. She seems to be pretty busy so she really slacks on putting your grades in. Overall, she's alright

Took Calc 1 and she mentioned this was her 1st time teaching it after a couple of years. Her tests are extremely long and don't correlate to the 30 page study guides that much. Can use the homework for quizs but they don't go with the homework! Had to withdraw the class bc she graded my 1st exam 2 months later and a day before the withdrawal date:/
