The classes taught by the teacher are the kind that makes most students switch out. Get a study group. You cannot possibly get every homework question done every week, theres too much, but always tries the last question of each block assigned (the hardest one). The tests are very often modified versions of the easiest homework questions with one of the hard ones. The teacher has a VERY clear marking plan while she works, so you should tailor the way you work to match it.

The teacher goes over every test afterwards, but its usually too quick. Write down on a separate page everything you messed up and stay behind after class to talk it over. My whole study group did this and we sometimes got some extra marks here and there in as well as understood the lesson better. The teacher has a curse of great understanding - she gets the topic VERY well herself so when I came in fresh I had a hard time keeping up. Thankfully her understanding comes with the ability to explain the same topic in different ways if you ask - just be prepared to put in the extra time outside the class.
