MATH 220
ELEM CALCULUS I
2**
She is incredibly smart, knows her stuff, but unfortunately she's a horrible professor. She doesn't explain things well which makes it harder than it needs to be in the long run. I had to self teach myself A LOT in this course.

Macasieb is very knowledgable of the subject she is teaching and moves very fast. the class is quite difficult if you don't have a background in Calculus but she is very good about her office hours. With hard work you can succeed in this class as long as you keep up with the homework and perform well on the quizzes.

CALCULUS III

This is a hard class. Macasieb grades fairly and does her best to cover all the material while still providing an opportunity to do practice problems in class. The honors version is only 3 days a week as opposed to the 5 days a week of the regular version, but the honors version is considerably more difficult.
