This professor is literally an angel! By far the sweetest and most understanding professor I've ever come across at UCLA. I am by no means a math person AT ALL but this is the first math class I've ever enjoyed. Take advantage of her office hours & stop by to chat even if you don't have specific questions! Please be patient with her in remote learning environments because if it seems like she's not responsive or the Sapling is acting up, know that she's really trying her best and technical difficulties are out of her control. She very much prefers you to discuss problems or point negotiations in office hours, not spamming her email inbox. All the points came from Sapling homework and the two "tests" were really just homework assignments titled "exam." I highly recommend this class with Professor Greene, even if you're not a math person!

I took this class during the COVID-19 pandemic, so my experience will likely differ from you lot who are living in a 'normal' world (this sucks :( ).

Professor Greene is an awesome professor. Plenty of examples that help you understand the concept and integrates theorem in a way that is not too overwhelming. She is always willing to answer questions during and after lecture so if you are confused make sure to ask her.

She did give us a hassle during weeks 4-5, where she dropped a test on us 3 days before we were to take it. She had told us that there would be no exams and was pretty rude in emails. The situation likely got to her so it was understandable. Exams were not too difficult and we were given 4 hours to complete 20 questions, so it paid off.

Hw was all on sapling and was fairly easy. Just stay on top of the assignments and you will do great.

Calc ll can be difficult, so study.

A pretty decent professor in general. She spends lots of time going over concepts and examples during ZOOM meetings, despite various technical difficulties. It would be best to watch her lectures after she posts it, live lectures are hard to listen to as her internet connection is really unstable. That said, she truly cares about her students and wants them to succeed. She offered us accommodations, we had two tests this term, and all our grades were from the Sapling homework she assigned. You get five attempts for each question, and the system automatically grades you. The test is one attempt per question. There was no final because of the ongoing pandemic and BLM movement. I am pretty sure the whole experience would be much better had it not been online.

Workload (CSI 6 week summer):
- lesson by lesson sapling homework (every other day) - very short and essential for understanding (kinda fun too)
- 1 weekly written homework (make sure you answer with sharp detail)
- 1 midterm and 1 final (VERY EASY)

Prof. Greene is such an amazing and funny professor. I took her for summer and she made the math class extremely fun and easy to comprehend.
I would totally take her class again.

A little difficult content but Greene is so adorable and considerate. Her lectures are very clear, she talks a bit slow but that actually helped me keep up with the course.

Greene is very good at explaining concepts and problems and does not skip over details. All though she had a difficult time switching to online at first, she was very accommodating and gave ample time to complete the homework. The grade was solely based on homework, which you submit online and have no time limit on. Lectures are recorded. Overall she made a very difficult class pretty easy.

~Intro~
I had Professor Greene for the entirety of the Math 3 Series, and I also LA'ed for her Math 3B as well, so this review will cover the entirety of the 3 Series with Greene. If you take her Math 3B during Fall, then you won't have her again for 3C most likely.
But if you take her Math 3A during Winter, then you can finish the entire series with her, which is honestly pretty nice, because her teaching style and testing style is super easy to get a hang of.

~Overall~
Professor Greene is a terrific Professor. Her lectures, although dry sometimes, are exactly what you need to know for her midterms and finals. Like literally, her tests are the examples she goes over in class with some numbers changed. It isn't too difficult to do well.
And as per standard in the Math Department, she'll drop the lower of the two midterms and tack it on to the Final. And she also has weekly homework sets due, but they aren't that hard, except for a couple of questions at the end that can be quite challenging, but still easily doable.

~Section~
I'm not sure if she is still doing this, with the online format and everything, but she made Discussion Sections mandatory which is a bit out of the norm for a math class, but in the end it's a free 10% of your total grade just for showing up to section.

~Math 3C with Greene~
As for Math 3C, I believe Greene only teaches it during Summer, and honestly it's a much different class than 3A and 3B, and during the fast paced Summer, it can be a little overwhelming, as you cover a variety of topics such as probability, eigenvectors, linear algebra, etc. It has a ton of material packed into the short 6 weeks and the final ends up being all over the place, but she lets you take in a cheat sheet to the final for 3C, so it ends up being okay.

~Professor Greene~
At times she can be kind of witty and make random jokes, which helps wake you up during her 9 AM lectures. That being said, if you commit to having Greene for the entire 3 Series, she only teaches it at 9 AM, which is better than an 8 AM, but still kind of trash especially since you'll have to do it for 2 quarters (winter and spring)

~Conclusion~
Professor Greene is a great professor to commit to for the 3 series. I think the 3 series content isn't too difficult, but it can be a bit different and random and can take you off guard if you don't study for it (ie semi-logs, eigenvectors, infusion rates etc). This series is easier than the 31 Series, but unlike the 31 series, a lot of the topics don't really build off of each other, which can be a good or bad thing depending on how much you study. But, Professor Greene makes the content pretty formulaic and you literally, and I mean literally, just have to memorize the process of what to do, as her tests are exactly the same thing as her examples with numbers changed here and there.

From what I have heard, Professor Greene is the best professor for any course in the Math 3 Series. In my experience, she lives up to her reputation pretty well. She drops your lowest homework and quiz score, and also has two different grading schemes that give you even more opportunity to do well in the class. She also provides you with practice exams, which are very reflective of the material she puts on her actual tests. That being said, her tests don't give much room for failure (a loss of one point has a pretty substantial affect on your grade), and her office hours weren't well-structured, which made getting your questions answered difficult. As somebody who did well in AP Calculus, I found this class to be mostly of a review of high school material. My TA was Louis, and he was such a gem! Overall, I would definitely recommend Professor Greene to anyone needing to take this course.

Professor Greene was an incredible teacher. I always felt welcomed in her class, and she always slowed down to ensure student learning and explained difficult topics. She was understanding of our workload, and her assignments were always reflective of what we had learned. Her teaching style was great, and she was very organized. She made learning math fun and easy, and if I needed to take another math class, I would take it with her. I appreciate her genuine passion for teaching and care for her students, and she made my spring quarter very enjoyable in this class.
