This class is more than often about understanding the concept, although the classwork and homework will be 1000x easier than the test and quizzes. Looking at past years reviews, they are correct, expect the unexpected. She will throw in questions that really test your understanding of the concept, and use khan academy and go to MT Learning Center (it is paid, but helps a lot) for additional resources. Also do not be afraid to ask her questions, she is really nice.

The tests are much harder than the practice tests, and the problems are way different, too. Expect the unexpected

Her classes are extremely hard, so make sure to set aside time. The questions on the test were way harder than homework and other work.
Class of 2024
Study hard and use google if you need help.

Ms. Tai is a very kind teacher. Unlike other teachers, she lets you take pictures of the notes. She is also very understanding. The one thing I wish I knew before joining her class is to be prepared for the hardest possible questions for the tests and quizzes. The homework and practice tests/quizzes are much easier than the actual tests. For this class, just doing homework and classwork isn't enough (unless you are a genius).
