Reviews of professor Joyce Hallaway

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Hallaway is very nice and caring.  Will spend time with you explaining if you just ask her.  She always asks if everyone understands before moving on.  If you don't speak up, that's on you.

This was my third time taking the class.  I understood her teaching and this time I passed!

Fun class.  Explains things well.  Keep up with the homework is a must.

I took her class for a 3-week course. This class was flooded with hours of videos and homework and not have enough time to complete it. In all of the courses I've taken, there has never been so much work. The class was not hard, it was just really time-consuming. If you working full-time or have responsibilities, this class is not for you.

Cal 2 is a hard course, but professor Hallaway did her best to make the class as easy as possible. As long as you do the homework & put in the effort, you will do well in her class. The negative reviewers must not have tried at all.

Professor Hallaway was really hilarious and caring for her students. She always offered a helping hand. However, I didn't really like how she kept speeding through the lectures. She would ask if everyone's ready to move on and if you struggled, she would just keep moving forward. So good luck with that... Overall, an okay class just do your work.

Way too much homework for a mini session. Unless you are a full time student with absolutely NO responsibilities, avoid her mini session. She still gives the same amount of assignments in a 4 week course as a 16 week. She also gives a group assignment in a mini session. She appears nice but very overwhelming. Extremely TIME CONSUMING!

I understand it when she explains it.  A first for me in a math class.

She will introduce a new topic, show you one question about it, and quickly teach you another topic. She only shows 1-2 questions and assumes all 30 kids in the class understand everything. The review will have a lot of questions to study, which is good, but when it's time to take the test, the questions are completely different.

She would help you outside of class, weekends, holidays, in-person, Zoom, phone, whatever you needed.

Do the homework and study the reviews and you will be fine.

Attendance is not mandatory but is very helpful.  Gives reviews the class before the exams which are very helpful.  Exams similar to reviews.  If you understand the concepts on the review, you will do well on the exam.  Cares if you pass.
