Overall great class. She gives weekly homework that is graded on accuracy, so double check before submitting homework. Tests are reasonable and she provides a review for each one. Her slides are well organized and she records her lectures and posts them fairly promptly.
The materials of this course were pretty difficult for me to grasp at first because it's quite conceptual and uses a lot of unfamiliar terms I wasn't introduced to in previous math classes. Try to TA office hours if you don't understand something - for me, i went to a different TA's OHs before exams because my ta was kinda intimidating and would answer questions really matter of factly. It helps to review the textbook before lectures so you understand what she's explaining. There are 2 midterms, but one can be dropped if you do better on the final. I thought the final was reasonable and we were given enough prep material to do well on it. Prof has a pretty thick accent but you eventually get used to it over the quarter.
I didn't find her lectures helpful so I stopped going after week 2. You can supplement your learning by reading the textbook/YouTube. She takes test questions directly from her practice versions so just make sure to master all the concepts on those and you will be good. Homework is graded on correctness so make sure to go to office hours to get them done. Tests are fair as they are similar to practice exams and partial credit is generous as long as you demonstrate you understand the concept. She allows a cheat sheet on her exams as well. Overall, I would recommend her class.
