Professor Greene really is an incredibly sweet professor! She explained concepts really well and took her time going over it. This class consisted of
achieve online assignments (20%)
Written homework which are questions from the textbook (15%)
Midterm I (20%)
Midterm II (20%)
Attendance (5%) , with 2 absences that get excused
Final (20%)
There was also an option to drop midterm II and have the final worth 40% of your total grade. Overall this class was very manageable. With it being online still, our exams were all online and 24 hours. Professor Greene would post it early giving us about 30 hours to complete the exam. She also responds to emails very quickly! The only complaint I would have is the structure of the class. Due dates aren't easy to remember like every Sunday. Despite this she did make it very clear during lecture and on canvas what day the homeworks would be due and gave plenty of time for it to be completed. I highly recommend Professor Greene if you're taking Math 31B, she really cares for her students.

Unlike some of the professors here at UCLA, Greene does not assume you've already taken AP Calculus ABCDEFGHI.... in high school. She takes her time to explain important concepts thoroughly. Most importantly, connects them to real life examples that helps you realize the importance of calculus. I originally took the class with another professor but ended up dropping it because of how horrible the material SEEMED to me. Little did I know that the professor was just butchering calculus, so when I took this course with Greene, she showed me the true beauty behind calc. She is easy to comprehend and talks in a very clear manner. I went into the class hoping never to take another calculus class, but left wanting to take more. UCLA keeps hiring PhD students to teach classes that they have no business teaching because it saves them money. Greene is one of those rare professors who doesn't have a PhD, but has stuck around because she has a clear talent for teaching. If you're scared of calculus but want to like it it, take any course with her. You'll thank me and her later.
This class is definitely a "do it yourself" type of thing. While the lectures are clear, they are seldom helpful for homeworks and the overall understanding on any concept. The achieve homeworks are helpful to understand material that is a similar level of challenging for the tests, but the textbook homework is much simpler and has nothing much to do with the tests.
I love Professor Greene so much! She is so sweet! My grandmother used to be a teacher and used to teach me when I was young and I got the exact same feeling with Prof Greene.
She is probably the kindest, friendliest, most caring, patient and awesome professor that teaches undergraduate math at UCLA.
The class is very easy and manageable. Requires minimal effort and is an easy A.
If you are going to take any math class at UCLA and you see that Prof Paige Greene is offering it, take it without a second doubt.
Amazing! I highly recommend Professor Greene. She explains tough concepts in an easily understandable manner and is very dedicated to student success. She is always willing to give you extra help and clarification to ensure mastery of the material. Exams were fair and relatively straightforward. She is not trying to trick you with very challenging problems or wordy questions, she just wants to evaluate your knowledge. I would recommend to study the worksheets that are given out during discussion, some of the problems were almost identical. The homework was also very valuable and useful.
It was a pleasure to be in her class!
I have mixed feelings about this class. Paige was super sweet, but also was not the best at clarifying anything or honestly being helpful at all. She "forgot" to release one of our exams at the correct time and it really screwed a bunch of students over because they had moved around work and life plans to take the exam that was then last minute pushed to a different time. I honestly felt like I had to teach myself this course with the help of symbolab.
Very disorganized, but relatively easy grader. Take if you want an easier grade but not if you want to understand the material well
On the whole, this class wasn't bad. Paige is a very sweet person, and makes herself very available with many office hours for people to ask questions. She also extended deadlines for many assignments including the final, although that was due to the fact that she posted it several hours late. I found that the first part of the course (integration) was taught much more clearly than infinite series, and I often had to consult YouTube videos to actually understand the material in the second half. This is largely due to her lecture style/notes, which are kind of disorganized and lack any sort of concrete structure. Due to online format, the exams were obviously quite challenging, and were made worse by the inconsistent and often unclear grading done by the grad student graders. In spite of these complaints, the forgiving grading scheme made it pretty difficult to get anything lower than an A, so overall would recommend.
Paige Greene is a well-versed and compassionate instructor who clearly cares about all of her students. She's a very clear and reasonably-paced instructor who lays out every concept in great detail before moving on. Very helpful and encourage everyone to go to offices hours if they needed help. Set extra offices hours for the sessions that she couldn't attend, and overall such a sweet person.
For Spring 2021, our final grade was weighted as follows: 20% written homework; 20% digital homework; 20% midterm 1; 20% midterm 2; 20% final. There was also an option to make the final worth 40% of our grade, while dropping our lowest midterm score. The lowest homework was also dropped.
Overall, this class was quite manageable. Due to the pandemic, all exams were open-note/open-book. She gave us a 48+ hour window to complete each test. I found the exams quite difficult but manageable with proper studying and help from notes/the book. Weekly homeworks were quite concise but undoubtedly necessary to understanding tested concepts.
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.
