The class itself is pretty tedious, only because the work that has to be shown is a lot. In math you have to show your work for how you got the answer, while in chemistry you even have to prove why the letter "a" comes before "b".

The teacher herself is a decent teacher, but her attitude towards the students in 2020 e-learning was completely uncooperative and unaccommodating. The teacher would rush through the notes like a breeze and would not have us practice the material. The only practice we got was 1 homework assignment which was given every UNIT. Due to the lack of encouragement the teacher and the unsatisfying experience, I would not recommend this teacher to any of my peers.
