In order to succeed in this class, you'll have to do your homework. Homework implies a lot of writing. The teacher makes you write down the whole thing with your answers in them. The homework can be a lot sometimes, but it's still doable. The other thing is that for tests and quizzes you'll have to study but he always goes over them before taking them. But the thing that is worth the most is projects. If you actually try you'll pass in this class but you have to put in some work.
Personally speaking, I was not a fan of his class. Math has always been one of my biggest weaknesses and that is probably one of the reasons why I didn't like it but another reason is because of the way he teaches. From my experience, it was not for me and I wish that it could've been a little bit more organized. I also wished that he didn't cut classes early for us to do things on our own because it wouldn't keep me engaged. For advice though, I believe that you should just pay attention, study formulas, and PRACTICE your weaknesses.
Over these past three years within the band program, I have come to believe that Dr. Wilke is an amazing teacher, and does an amazing job at helping us as an ensemble improve and grow as musicians. This class overall is very easy and tests don't happen much at all. If anything, I would just suggest practicing your instrument often if not daily while focusing on a specific weakness you have on your instrument. Of course, this is a band class so really all you have to do is to practice your instrument! This class is pretty chill overall as long as you're on top of your music so make sure to practice!
In this class, you have to pay attention to be able to learn the material because math is not an easy subject to learn if you do not pay attention. You take notes almost daily which helps with doing homework, and notes count a lot for grades. The notes help with homework, quizzes, and tests. She also posts the notes as videos or pictures which you can come back to or use if you miss a day. She is very open when it comes to late work. And you would still get full credit for the late work. She is a very easy person to talk to when it comes to asking questions or for help. And I personally do not like asking questions but in her class, I felt very comfortable with it. She makes her class environment very friendly and kind because of how she is always ready to help and goes at a pace you would like. She also has hours outside of class to get help, which is very helpful. And you can also email her for help with homework and questions. I enjoyed her class a lot because I learned a lot but was also very comfortable in the class.
