The math faculty are here to help you. If I need to use their office hours for some extra help, that is absolutely no problem. The relationships you can build with your professors is definitely beneficial.

A lot of [my professors] stress the importance of guided gradual learning instead of just aiming for that perfect GPA. This is the thing that has helped me the most. They are here to mentor you.

At a school where there are huge classes, you aren’t going to get the time with your professors, so you aren’t going to get the same education that you can get at UNE. That face-to-face time with professors is so valuable. It’s never a fight for time. My professors always make time to answer questions and chat with me one-on-one.

I’ve never taught a class larger than 25 students here, which is really nice. I feel like I get to know all of my students on a personal level, which is lovely.

All of the professors have been absolutely amazing, and I don't think that you find that at a lot of places. The professors and advisors that I have go out of their way to assist me and make me comfortable and a priority.
