One of the smartest teachers ever. He teaches very well and you will understand. I took him and had some difficulties all you have to do is ask and he will explain it to you very well. I ended up getting a A. Thank you Professor!
his notes are very clear. might go a little to fast but not hard to keep up with. As long as you read the textbook befor or after class and do his home work you will pass his tests.(take the fornt seat because he doesn't talk too loud)
THE BEST OF BESTS I REPEAT THE BEST OF BEST EASY A
He teaches the material clearly or he explains it three times more if needed. And his exams are negotiable, you can choose to have a 10% quize or a make-up exam. Before exams, he gives comprehesive reviews and most of the questions will show up on the exam.
I took this professor for Mat 201 and Mat 203. He explains everything very clearly, always willing to explain one more time. He is able to give an example for any material and and the applications of the studying material. Has a great memory, teaches without looking in the textbook. Definitely take him.
very good professor ,very patient and helpful , and funny too !! what happen ? his favorite question, very good person
Great professor, explained things well. I was bummed about having to take this class, and he reminded me how much I like math. I'm kind of looking forward to having him for calculus. He does talk kind of quietly and has an accent, so sitting up front is helpful.
The man knows his stuff, teaches well, & has patience if a student does not understand. Very few professors are this dedicated to their students and teach this great. His exams are the review questions and homework problems so really study them, and you will be fine.
Very nice professor. Extremely helpful. Most of the questions of his test comes from his notes. Someone studying his notes is bound to score an A.
Very good professor. He has a bit of an accent but you can understand him very clearly. Unlike any other professor, if you do not understand something, he will repeat twice and even thrice only for you. The exams are really straight forward and are coming from the review questions, and the homework are relatively easy. My rating is 5 stars.
Drame is on of the best African professors at lagccc. He knows a lot in calculus, not like Powell who doesn't know how to draw a vectors in the brd. whatever Drame explains things in good way, answering any questions even from previous courses. very organized, helpful and also easy exams in order to get an A. thank you Drame for what you have done.
Really helpful ...best teacher ever.
The best prof
The best professor in Lagcc,the best so far.He is gentle,explains well,has patience ,he is a gift from god.May god give you a long and blessful life Dr Drame.
He is one of the best professor's in Laguardia. If you give time and effort for the course, you will enjoy his class a lot...His way of teaching is good..just make sure you do all the projects and homeworks on time as they come handy for the final grade..you will love to have him as your professor..
Do not get me wrong he is a nice guy. But all you guys are giving him great ratings because most of you used the old exams. His exams are extremely hard and long. Not to mention how much of a tough grader he is. If you do not show 1*0 written down you get 0 out of 14 points. That is what happened. Have a little sympathy for you students professor.
highly doubt those good reviews came from former students. he mumbles through out the lecture, when you ask a question he gives this rude gesture, like we're supposed to know what he's talking about.
dont even waste your time with this class,I seriously hope there are other professors that teach mat 212. tests are impossible/not enough time. The tests look nothing like the review. takes so many points off a mistake. what happened? what happened?
Drame is the best professor I believe I have ever hard. He knows the subject that he teaches. He prepare well before coming to class every time. His door is always open to help every students that come to him.I think the world needs professor like him, especially,in mathematics.
I took this professor for Mat203 and Mat212 and he is one of the finest professor at LaGCC. He explains the concepts of maths very clear and he also knows the material. Other than other professors, this professor always knows what he is doing. Any negative ratings about professor A. Drame might just be out of ignorance or a propaganda.
Great professor. Very helpful.
God bless you professor Drame. You are one of the best.
D Drame is one of the best professor In Laguardia . Actually he is the best professor I had in my life. For those who said that he is bad,if you are stupid and you getting bad grade . You must blame yourself and not the professor.I got an A in mat 203 and other A in mat 212 Dr. Drame keep repeating until you understand. God bless him.
Professor Drame is awesome! He always explains math concepts in a crystal clear way! I never had better profesor than Dr. Drame! If I could I would take him for every single class. He truly cares about students and the way he is teaching makes it easy to understand the concepts. I highly recommend him !
Very Good prof. make your life easier!
Professor great is great. He is very helpful. He explains very clearly step by step until you understand. He doesn't make inappropriate comments in class. He is very professional and truly cares about students' success.
Very good professor.
Professor Drame is great. He always explains very clearly the math concepts and helps you understand. Online platform for MAT96 is Math department's policy not his. If you are genuinely interested in learning and passing you should take him. Anything else is dishonest propaganda.
I was lazy. So I got B. But he is a good professor. Young, cordial, and patient. But he once scolded a student for asking him a pre-cal stuff in Cal I class. But her question was so stupid.
I had taken math 96 twice before and withdrew within weeks because I felt that the teachers were moving at a really fast pace. To a certain extent, I believe that teaching is an art, and it takes someone as knowledgeable and as patient as Dr. Drame to teach in a manner in which even the less gifted students can comprehend. Overall score: 89. PASSED
one of the best professors at LAGCC .... god bless this man
I took this class 2 years ago and got an A because I did my homework. He gives a lot of questions to do for the homework but they are worth it. Some students might say the time he gives for test is not enough but I believe it is enough if you are prepared. He responds to emails ASAP whenever you have questions.
one of the best professor. thank you sir.
I took this professor for Mat203 and Mat212 and he is one of the best professor at LaGCC. He explains the concepts of maths very clear and he also knows the material. Other than other professors, this professor always knows what he is doing. He cares about students.
Professor. Drame is a great instructor. He explains the mathematical concepts clearly. I'd recommend taking notes and studying them afterwards if you're going to take class; since his exams are primarily based off the notes you take, and the hw he assigns.
Makes sure everything taught is well understood .Very cooperative.
Hi everyone, if you really want to learn math you should take class with him. Professor Drame is an excellent, knowledgeable, and helpful professor. I took pre-calculus, Calculates 1, and calculus 2 all these classes i go A. I also register Spring 2-2016 Calculus 3 with him. In future i will take mat 212 with him. I wish god Bless him. Angshu
Dr. Drame is one of the best prof. in LaGCC. I have finished with him Pre-Cal, Cal-1 & Cal-2. In spring 2016, I have registered for cal-3. Then, I will take MAT-212 with him in future. Sincerely, I recommend to everyone to take class with him if you really wants to know about Mathematics. If anyone got bad grade that's their fault.
This professor is a miracle worker. Before taking any of his classes, math was not a subject i excelled in. After taking several of his classes I was inspired to further delve into the beauty of mathematics. He is able to explain the material in a clear manner and is always there to help his students, definitely take his class.
He is the best teacher, I have ever met.
Even though I screwed up, missing an exam, this guy offered me a make up. He is one of the best math prof. at LAGCC. He cares about his students and he offers plenty of extra credits. Make sure you complete his review sheets, they will be very helpful for the test. You do have have to practice on your own though, like any math course.
This professor explain clear with the topic and his exams are easy.
Loved him for MAT201, same applies for MAT203. Excellent professor for all levels of math. He explained the material proficiently. Do HW for extra credit. Study the notes along with the review sheet and HW. Be sure to listen, not many professors like him around. Good luck
Best math prof I have ever met ! . Teaching is an art and he has it . He ask each student if they got it or not . he is so flexible about homework and quizzes. till you get good grade he will extend the time (no other prof does that )and the best part HE GIVE SO MUCH EXTRA CREDIT which is in-class work ;but he add those points to the real exam .
so sad that I completed my last m,ath class with him. It was a pleasure. The same method applies to MAT212. Excellent lecturer which requires full attention. Review sheets are provided, be sure to complete them. Projects are also implemented since its an honors class. you get what you put in. Thank you, sincerely Khan
He is the best professor I ever had
Prof. Drame is the best ever! He gives too much extra credits and he doesn't get bothered when you don't understand. actually he tries his best to make everybody gets what he saying. I took this class before w another professor and I failed so bro you gotta take him. He made me love math, and I got an A.
He is the best professor.
Best Professor ever for calculus.
It has been a rough semester for me personally! but every class of him is hilarious! the way he mimic steps or diagram is something beyond explanation! Sometimes he gets frustrated with a stupid questions(I can understand that) Other than that, He is fair and wants us to work hard to get a good grade. Please add some color to your wardrobe.
He is the best professor I have ever seen. He cares so much about his students. He never gets angry if you ask him any question again and again. He will make it easy for you.
He is the best professor for CALCULUS 1,2,3
One of the best Math professors I have ever seen, this guy is a gem and he KNOWS how to teach math and makes sure that everyone in the class is getting everything, he will repeat as many times as you want and is not too strict about attendance too. He gives tons of chances and extra-credit assignments to help get a good grade.
Great Professor Explains well study study study you will pass. Do past papers email as questions he responds.
He is not as easy as I thought he would be. I studied so hard and ended up with a C. He is a really nice prof and def knows his stuff but he goes through so many topics in one class. he drop some of the lowest homework grades but his exams are pretty tough. If you are good at math then he is for you. but if you struggle in math then don't take him
Probably one of the best math professors Ive ever have. This was my second time repeating math 115 and he makes it so much easier. I highly recommend him. Hes an easy A just put your effort into it.
Hands down one of the greatest math Professor in LAGCC. He grades fair and his exams is easy only if you attend his lecture classes and do hw on time. Not to mention his classes are really entertaining and therefore would highly recommend him.
Took professor Drame for the shorter session. His class time is nonstop work, and he gives out a good amount of homework. But if you do your work, and show up, it won't really matter what you got on your exams, as he apparently likes to give out As. He is pretty clear in his lectures, so good for those who don't do too well in math classes.
Yo he's a great professor. He's the best in Laguradia tbh. Exams aren't hard and he gives you extra credits to help boost your grade. I'd def. take him again
He is a really good Professor. I took him for cal 3 and linear algebra. He is patience and he cares about students. His test are straight foward but sometimes are really long, be prepared for them. Understanding the HWs is fundamental in his class. Studying the topics in the book is a perfect complement for his lectures.
He is the best Math teacher so far, he explains so well, and he tries to make sure that you are understanding. he gives extra credit, and the most important thing, the professor is funny, sometimes he gives some jokes to make it more fun in the class.
He such a great professor. If you ask any question 100 times, he will answer. Easy to understand the way he solve problems. Easy A if you just be little careful. Just follow what he says, you would be fine.
Hes a good teacher, better then a lot of the other math prof. at LAGCC. Explains well and encourages questions. test are not difficult/ no surprises.
The best professor in LAGCC . He know how to teach and genuinely wants student to succeed .
Prof Drame is awesome! He gets right to the point and gives extentions on assignments. I learned so much during the short session, take his class!
Best math teacher Ive ever had, knows and understands what he is teaching by heart. Definitely would recommend
He is an outstanding professor. Take him and do the work you will get a good grade.
Once you see math you see him because he is the best math professor.
He is a true gem. He has a lot of patience&will go over something until you get it. He really cares. Gives lots of extra credit! No surprises on instructors tests he let's you know exactly what will be on the test.
H e is the best math professor I have ever had. He knows mathematics by heart and I think he will be able to solve any problem in the world. He breaks down his steps really nicely and has the gift of explaining math which other professors don't have. You have to work hard for your grade. The key is to practice. I wish I had him for all my classes!
best professor in the U.S . I really respect him.
Dr Drame is the best professor ever had, he likes to teach math. If you dont understand he will repeat until you get it. I would like to take more classes with him.
One of the best professor that teach calculus. very caring. He makes sure that very one understands the materials. He also encourage who are struggling to visit him in his office and give them extra help. if you want to improve your math skills take Drame :)
Prof. Drame is a really great teacher that will actually help you learn math rather than just memorizing. He is the most patient professor I have ever encounter. He will literally repeat the materials hundred times if you ask him to. He will ask you several time just to make sure that you actually understand him. He is the best professor I had.
i sucked at math but this professor made everything so easy i took 2 classes from him would definitely take more if he taught them!
He explains the material pretty well but doesn't like to go over things too much and can be dismissive at times. He doesn't follow college policies and was pretty unreliable the first two weeks of the semester. He constantly showed up late to class and even forgot to tell is class was canceled a few times. There is no real extra credit work added.
Professor Drame is a true gem! I have never encountered a professor that has this acknowledgement and love for the subject, and support his students . When I first started Math, I was terrified that I wont be able to do well! But with his clear lectures and excessive support I got an A+. He is very caring, I will take Math with him each semester!
Professor Drame saved my life in Math!! he is an exceptional professor. He is very supportive and loves his job. His lectures are clear and repeats until everyone understood. I recommend professor Drame if you want to learn Math and be motivated. accessible outside of class and always willing to help!!
Dr. Drame is beat professor in LaGuardia community college. I took three classes with him MAT115, 200 and 201. I had great experienced with him. He gives you extra credit if you did not do well in exam. He actually cares about the students. He always makes sure each student understands his lectures. He is always there if you need any help.
He is a good professor, but sometimes he teach too fast, make sure you did all the homework if you want to catch up everything.
A professor that takes his time to teach the every part of the material and will go over with you again if you are struggling to understand the topic. Makes himself accessible outside of the class for any question you may have. Do the the homework and study for the exams and it will be an easy A.
Nice professor. If I had chance, I would take him again.
He is one of the most wonderful professors LAGCC has. I love his lectures, he makes maths so much easier and never gets tired explaining stuff you don't get it. I will take him again.
He is really great. He explains very simply and makes easy to understand even difficult stuff. so glad because got him for next calculus-202 class. Important takeaway is don't miss his class because his every single lecture is important for the following lectures.
took his second class, he is amazing and best math professor
One of the best prof. No complainants. I recommend everyone to take him For math
He is so disrespectful to me because I am deaf and he doesn't like me to ask him a question or interrupt his lectures. He doesn't know how to be patient with me and yell at me in front of the class with an ASL interpreter. I feel so embarrassed and this is the reason why I hate math.
I LOVE PROFESSOR DRAME! He is the best professor, i ever had. Trust me, i hated math before taking his class. He is patient, breaks things down in a clear and organized manner. His teaching methods are beyond amazing. A great teacher always available and willing to help. My classmates and I will miss him. Whenever you get the chance take his class.
I believe if you dedicate yourself to math and meet a professor such as Abdou you will get and easy A. I recommended this professor for those who do not understand math well, he will make you understand with his organizing and clear explanations.
The Best professor in LAGCC. Will explain even the littlest stupidest thing and work with the students to teach them, not to scold them. Caring and understanding.
He is very good prof I ever had.
The course itself is hard. Watching videos from the assignments on Lumen feels like you are able to learn more compared to sitting in zoom listening to 2-4 hour lectures. He assigns too much home work if I have to be honest. He's a nice professor though. Let's you retake the Final exam if you want. Overall 3/5.
Great guy
Take him. He is very nice and friendly . You can extend your hw due date . He will give you review to study for exam . Very flexible on lecture , hw and project. If you study , you will definitely get A.
Professor Abdou Drame was amazing, he would make video recordings of reviews for every test, he is a G.O.A.T. I do recommend you show up to every class, there are topics that you will only understand if you are in class glued to your seat. Remember every little detail in class you will see in test. I learned the hard way and he actually helped me.
He was very rude. A classmate wanted to make a group chat and he shut it down. He never answered my email asking if he could excuse my absence, and I had to email him again. When he responded, it was very cold. Felt like I had to teach myself with his lectures and they were boring. He is always asking people to acknowledge him during lectures.
For the last three semesters, I have had this professor and I have never been disappointed. As well as being a professor, he is a great person who cares about his students, he is respectful, helpful, and highly comprehensive. Definitely recommend him!
I took professor Drame for cal 1, cal 2, cal 3 and for Linear Algebra credit for ccny for engineering Math 346 (MAT 210 ) or Math 392 (Mat 212). He is the best for cal and linear...ccny hard so its better take this class at la guardia with this excellent professor !! thanks for everything professor drame
The absolute GOAT, wrote my letter of recommendation to City College, really good person, and an amazing professor if you have a question ask him and he will go over it. He is a busy man so try to be specific and also carry your own weight. He is very smart, therefore don't mess around with him, just be real, study, and ask questions.
This professor is amazing I am weak in math but he helped me to pass his class with A and I am taking his linear algebra class and planing to take more his course. Highly recommended
His exams are based off of the reviews that he gives you. Always accessible by email and more then willing to help you with any questions that you have.
awesome
Best Professor ever! I normally don't like Math but with this professor, I really enjoyed learning about linear algebra, he's, lectures explain the topic in a crystal clear way.
Best Math professor in LaGuardia!
He teaches maths to students in an easy way and his lectures were very constructive. I would like to say he is one of the best math teachers in Laguardia CC.
The overall rating speaks for itself, but I'm still going to post my opinion. He is one of the best Prof Lagcc could ever have. He teaches many calculus classes and it's crazy how he isn't a chair yet. He will pass you as long as you participate and show that you attempt to try.
He is the best math teacher I had so far. 20 homework, only few quizzes and 3 exams in total. Pay attention, take notes and you should succeed flawlessly.
He's very kind, I took him for precalc and calc a long time ago, and I always felt he never judged and was very patient and great!
Amazing professor
Not the worst, but not the best either. Gets frustrated easily. Pretty reasonable with homeworks and exams. Honestly, pretty mid, you could do worse and you could also do better. Don't understand how he has such a high rating.
He is a amazing professor and very flexible. He always care about students understanding the lectures. Take this class and respect to him. Then you will get A grade.
take his class immediately, he makes everything so easy to understand and does examples in class as well, he puts only the easier questions on the test, he is a bit heavy on the hw but that will make you understand more the material, and he will give extensions of the hw.
Prof Drame is great. He is sharp and will do plenty of practice problems on the board and show you all the steps. Gives review sheets, but there are so many HW problems that he can choose for the exams, so you still have to sudy hard. Im glad I took his class. Take his class if you want to learn and get better at math!
Professor Drame was very friendly from day one. In all his lectures he was very direct and specific about what needed to be understood in order to pass the class. He would often explain the reasoning behind certain topics and go the extra mile to make sure everyone feels comfortable with the material. Take him if you can.
GOAT!!!
Good Professor, Lectures were very packed but he made sure everyone was on track and gave multiple examples regarding the lecture. Generous with extensions curves and extra credit.
Professor Drame is great - he breaks down concepts clearly and provides plenty of practice problems. The exams are tough, but using unstuck AI and the review sheets helped me prepare well. Overall, a challenging but rewarding class.
Professor Drame is a gem at LaGuardia! You will not regret taking his class!
Professor Drame is a great professor! He teaches at a good pace and makes sure everyone understands. I'm not good at math, but he explained it in a way that even I could get it. He's patient, clear, and really cares. Definitely recommend his classes fill up fast for a reason!
I'm just adding it to the pile but at this point everyone knows this is the best professor you can take. Took both 202 and 210 with him and I wouldn't have minded doing all my math classes with him if I knew him sooner. His tests are easy there at least 2 questions are basically free points. Gives a lot of extra credit and easy lectures.
Abdou is a great human being and professor. His class is very straightforward no surprises. If you do the homework and test reviews the exams are very easy. He is liked by all the students and is very friendly and caring. He made calculus 2 seem easy because he explains very well. Study and do all the assignments. Exams are based on the reviews/HW.
Best professor in the college imo. He's amazing. Lectures are easy to follow, gives extra credit, his exams are easy, and he's a good grader as well. Just work through the homework and the reviews and you will be good.
Absolute GOAT of LAGCC's Math Department! His lectures are easy to understand and he is also easy going person. He invested a lot of time explaining to students until they could catch up with the logic of the problem. His tests are not that hard as long as we study well. I will take another math class with him again for 101%!!!
