He is so cool! He teaches short ways to solve the math problems. The class is very interesting. He has a great sense of humour. Result-knowlege.
Now this guy here is the real deal. I could bet that everybody would love him. He has excellent skills in explaining math. He really helps to understand the basics and has a very strong sense of humor. I would recommend him to any student.
WOW THE BEST TEACHER IV HAD FOR MATH PERIOD!THE CLASS DOESNT SEEM SO HARD WHEN HE TEACHES IT.VERY HELPFULL&CLEAR.IF U CAN FIT THE TIMES TAKE HIM HE'S THE BEST&THIS IS COMING FROM SOMEONE WHO STRUGGLED WITH MATH LITERALY ALL MY LIFE.WOW IS ALL I'LL SAY HE'S A GOOD TEACHER PERIOD DNT GOT THOSE NO MORE
EASY A highly recomended
He is awsome! very helpful explains really good and doesn't make you figure out all the hard ways of doing math instead he tells you the easy way highly recomend taking him.
Very nice personality. Mr. Kindness himself. Doesn't go very deep into explaing new concepts, because I guess he assumes that you know it already. Does give out "shortcuts"(as he says) to solve problems easily. Do your homework, be in class, you will do well.
HES SMART

Mr. "K" is a true professional. His teaching technique is understood by all! I have learned tremendously in his class as well as enjoyed his humor, which helps take the edge off. This class has helped me look at Math with much more confidence. I truly recommend Mr. K as a Math instructor.
He is a great teacher and tries to entertain the students, which keeps everyone motivated.
An excellent teacher. He is precise, kind, intelligent and actually makes math accesable and fun. If i had this teacher in high school, I wouldnt have had to take all the remedial math classes I am taking now!
Mr. K.., is a very good and easy to understand math professor, if everyone that teaches math, was like him, math would very very easy. I hope I had him for all my math classes.
Mr. K is one of the best teachers in LACC. All of his notes and lectures are clear. He is very helpful and understanding. I would strongly reccommend this class to everyone!!!
A real proffesor. He helped me see through mathematics. I wish that I had him for my MAthematics 125. Hopefully one day he will teach Trigonometry in LACC.
I recomend Professor Karapetyan's class to every student in LACC who wants and needs to understand and learn the statistics. He is the best teacher!
He is such a great teacher. He explains very well, never refuse to help every student personally.
Mr Karapetyan is one of the few teachers who can explain the hard material. He is the best teacher, a lot of h/w and lectures but after the class you know everything highly recomended.
Great teacher. Goes out of his way to help each person out. I am a poor student in math but he helped me immensly. Very highly recommended.
I don think anyone cud be any better than him he rockssss hes fun, easy and a perfect teacher he doesnt bs, he gets straight to the point in math, he doesnt take off random points like other teachers.... basically hes cool
He is a real math Professor. He is meant to be a math professor. I wish one day he will teach TRIGONOMETRY AND CALCULAS. Please everybody potition, so he will be teaching above following mathematic classes.
no words can describe such an extreme well knowlegdge man
Best math teacher you'll ever have..he makes math so easy that there is no way you can't get an A if you really try. He also lets you do a lot of extra credit.. Very Fair, understanding, funnyy, in other words fun class..if you are going to take math I advise you to definitly take this guy he really is the best and easiest math teacher.
Great! Awesome! Simply one of the best. I will remember statistics for long time. Take his class.
Truly a great professor,passionate about teaching and very helpful
Mr. K ended up teaching our class at the last minute. Hes an amazing teacher and even took time out of his weekend schedule to help me with some confusion. He wants his students to succeed!! Do your homework, ask questions and do the extra credit! If math isnt your thing, he will do his best to make you understand!
This instructor is amazing. He's dedicated, reviews EVERYTHING, and does not make you agonize over skills he won't test you on. He give a lot of homework, but grades it on effort not correctness, then reviews everything you need so you'll be prepared for the exam. Great sense of humor, patient, LOVES teaching. (Same goes for Math 216 with him)
What can i say, mr. K is the best! the hardest material he explains like its second grade math, and you just get it. Explains veryyyyyy welll and its not that he's an easy A, no not really, you learn everything very well and very easily, therefore it turns out to be an easy A. =)
He is the best of the best:)
Unfortunately, I did not pass due to personal issues beyond my control. But I have nothing but good things to say about this professor--well organized, very patient, and skilled instructor. Plenty of extra credit opportunities. Take him. Excellent teacher. Book is an enormous waste of $$. Hardly any examples to review. Turned to internet for help.
excellent. I LOVEEEEE THIS MAN
Very cool Teacher , Always helping everyone
This Teacher was Awesome!
Mr. K is one of the best professors at LACC. HE WANTS TO HELP YOU AND TO PASS YOU. Do the homework (it will get you ready for the test). He gives extra credit. CLEAR, HELPFUL, FRIENDLY.
very easy, gives xtra credit, goes over hw. final are the exact problems as previous test so just study the steps to solve it. goes over the test.recomend to take if ur bad at math
He is the best professor i have ever seen. Friendly and funny. he knows how to teach and makes it very easy to all. After you meet him you will change your major to math:))Hot...
I ACTUALLY REALLY ENJOYED TAKING THIS CLASS WITH MR. K, HE REALLY HELPS YOU INDIVIDUALLY, GIVES EXTRA CREDIT OPPORTUNITIES. THE CLASS INVOLOVES LOTS OF WORD PROBLEMS WHICH FOR ME SOMETIMES WERE HARD... HOWEVER, HIS HW ASSIGNMENTS AND EVEN TESTS ARE VERY HELPFUL!! I GOT AN A IN MATH 215 AND A B IN MATH 216. :]
Great teacher! Highly recommended! Very helpful and nice personality!
Best Math Teacher Ever!!
He really tries to help you. I wish he taught more variety of courses like trig, pre calc.
I have always sceared of math. After I met him math is no more sceary:):):) I love him and his style of teaching so much.
Told us there would be extra credit then takes it back goes really fast and covers an entire chapter in one day roughly about 5 to 6 sections... too much cramming he was trying to finish the book instead of actually teaching the material the class average was a D luckily I passed...
He is the best of best. First time met a teacher like him. Very clear methods of teaching. Highly recommended.
He is an excellent instructor. I came from nikolaychuk and failed. He was horrible but this teacher is just so clear and if you ask for help, he will help you. He's funny and easy going. Amazing teacher. I'm seriously hoping to take him again next semester. We'll see!
Does Not Know How To Teach!!!! AVOID HIM!!!!!
Really good teacher. Tells you what you need to know about the subject, and does not complicate things. Extremely patient with his students. Gives a lot of homework so don't fall behind. A bit strict on deadlines. He reviews the homework questions as review for the tests. Said tests should be quite easy if you did the homework.
Great great great teacher. Gives you everything you just need to do the work. Easiest teacher I have ever had. Hw comes from book. Guy loves his job. We need more teacher lime him in the math department
This professor is honestly absolutely terrible at his job. He crams a lot of work & he doesn't like be asked questions after class, very rude dismissive attitude towards his students. What kind of professor gives a midterm right after a 4 chapter test without any sort of review prior? A terrible experience for anyone as a student and human being.
Please save yourself and do not take this professor! I have always been decent at math but this man is so confusing and unhelpful. It would not be an exaggeration when I say half the class dropped his course during the semester. If you're reading this save yourself the time, effort, and grade.
DON'T TAKE THIS PROFESSOR! he does NOT help, he is bothered when you ask him questions, sarcastic, expects you to know everything on your own, always on his phone or computer while everyone is trying to figure out how to do the problems, a lot of homework. Save up your semester and look for other professors.
I am disappointed with the fact i couldn't pass the class but also very relieved because now i can take the class with a professor who actually TEACHES and not one who is predominantly on phone or the computer when we need help.
he makes math more difficult than it already is. The worst professor I have ever encountered at LACC. sorry not sorry.
Seems like a decent man and somewhat knowledgeable in math but very poor teaching skills
A lot of homework , difficult tests , and no help or teaching from Mr. Karapetyan. That sums up my semester . I do not recommend him.
For the final this man made us study a whole semester's worth of hw and tests. Which is roughly 700 problems + formulas. How is one supposed to do that? We are not robots and we also have to study for other classes. He is very inconsiderate because all the professors i had before him always reviewed and provided some sort of study guide.
He doesn't help you. He gets mad if you ask for help. View example are his favorite words. Sometimes i felt like just staying home and perhaps figure out the lesson myself because he was of no help so class was pointless.
spent most of my time trying to figure the lessons out myself this semester because he didn't help me.
He seemed nice at the beginning and even promised to stay after class to help us but as you may have guessed, it was a lie. He never took the time to actually sit down and actually help me with my math problems. I felt lost and confused which is very scary when dealing with math.
He expects you to know everything and he is very rude / Sarcastic as well.
VERY RUDE! i could never ask the professor questions after because he would just dismiss me very rudely and walk away not well mannered at all.
I wouldn't recommend this professor he needs to learn to have patience and be more reasonable when it comes to providing students with a study guide or some sort of assistance if he is going to give an overbearing amount of work with no teaching from his part.
I would rather switch schools before i take this professor again.
Cool guy but horrible teacher
If you require help and patience with math don't take Mr. K.
Not a good teacher and he was very mean and sarcastic when i asked him questions.
The worst experience I have had as a student.
I can't comprehend why this man felt that math is something you should understand right away. If you don't understand something the one and only time he explains it, then frankly you are on your own to be honest. He will not take the time to make sure you understand it or help in anyway. I resorted to youtube videos but sadly that wasn't enough.
Thanks to this professor i have to retake this class after i worked very hard and still couldn't pass. How can i pass if he was no where to found when it came down to helping out with the hw, tests, lessons, and basically everything !!!
Mr. Karapetyan is one of a kind. He teaches very well and helps you when you ask him. Doesn't teach in an overwhelming way. This department needs to hire him full-time and raise his salary. He does everything possible to make sure his students succeed and learn in his class unlike other math professors here who enjoy failing students.
He is very rude i can't even begin stress how rude and sarcastic he is. As far the class goes he spends most of the time on the computer and phone. I sincerely hope people choose another professor because what i went through this semester with this man i wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. He is not attentive or helpful in any manner period.
Mr. Karapetyan seemed cool but after the first couple weeks he started giving us the "i don't care attitude". I would ask for help he seemed bothered and would rudely shut me up when i asked him a question. I felt hopeless and lost wish i dropped the class when i had the chance.
HE DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO TEACH. HE IS VERY CONFUSING AND I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS MAN TO ANYONE IF YOU SINCERELY NEED HELP IN MATH & WANT TO RECEIVE A GOOD GRADE.
If this class was about how to use the phone and computer during class then Mr. K would be a great professor because he excelled in doing those things.
I tried my hardest to understand what Mr.k explained but one time wasn't enough for me to truly comprehend the material . I would recommend getting a tutor if you find yourself in Mr.k's class.
He doesn't know how to explain things well at all. I was very confused throughout the whole semester.
No help and very rude at times. It was not a good experience overall.
I usually never do reviews but this professor was so terrible at his job and with being helpful in anything i had to leave a review. Please save your money and take another professor. Do not make the same mistake i made because it may cost you a entire semester. Hope this helps and goodluck
Mr. K was fun and simplified things, but he moved encredibly fast. All hw/tests are on line. Tons of homework, really hard but by the time finals came around I felt very well prepared. Don't be afraid of this guy, just make sure you plan A LOT OF TIME for homework and study chapters before the class.
He does not lecture very well, goes at his own paste sometimes get confused with what he teaches. Statistics is very hard as it is, so you have to study and over study a lot. He gives extra credit with helps you out on your final exam :)
very good professor i got an in his class not because oh he gives free A he teaches well and will give you good grade if u work hard love you Mr Karapetyan
very good he boils stastisics to the very basic he makes hard math look like 3rd grade awesome professor lots of extra credits for the final the man does everything to help you get good grade
one word Mr Karapetyan is awesome he makes math very easy i hated math all my life but now I love it and its all thanks to his awesome teaching
teaches very well thats why its easy and very skilled instructor .
math is a hard class but he just makes math way to easy to learn and understand the concepts does students that did not pass must of been lazy will do anything he can to ensure your success if you work hard
gives a lot of extra credit cares for students makes math easy even dough its a hard class i was so bad in math but i got an A in his class nd he will give you good grade if u try your best and come to class everyday
explains extremely well gives 20 extra credit points I got an A in his class because he taught me very well and makes the subject easy he wants everyone to pass also very friendly guy
He is so cool! He teaches short ways to solve the math problems.
Mr. Karapetyan is unfortunately terrible at his job last semester was a headache. He was never helpful or explained things more than once. Extra credit is pointless if you are failing or lost in the class. I wouldn't recommend to my worst enemy.
The most confusing and unorganized professor I've taken in my life :/
Don't take this man's class unless you want to be lost in class for an entire semester. I had to hire a tutor because Mr. Karapetyan failed to do his job as a professor. I worked hard and eventually got an A with another professor. Karapetyan is not a good professor to be honest.
i took him 2 years ago i got an A in his class because he teaches well and docent move to other lectures until you for sure understood what he was teaching makes jokes to entertain us
gives a lot of homework but not bad it helps prepare you for the test extra credit is given if u take hm you will not struggle in math
stats is a hard class i failed stats 3 times but then i got an A because of how he lectures and he makes stats look like 4th grade math
i got an A very good at teaching g the material and befriends students
the best instructor in lacc i took him for 125 and now I'm not struggling in math anymore the best math instructor easily in lacc
i took him for all my math in courses in lacc i i gt all As because he would teach the material very good and I'm majoring in math because of him
gives extra credit gives chances does everything he can for you to get a good grade in his class
what can i say the man loves his job the way he teaches his nice patient with students and test aren't that hard because if u get part of it right he gives full credit
very nice man makes the class easy even dough math is hard grades are curved he if u try he will do whatever it takes you to get a good grade
i passed math 115 with an A and took him for 125 and 227 i got all 3 as because he just taught the material very well
Very cool Teacher , Always helping people until they get everything
i like his teaching so fat i got An A in the test probable will end up with an A
very bad at teaching i dropped has attitude problem
well hell answer all your questions about homework test caring guy who loves his job
Karapetyan is the worst professor i have ever had. He is very mean and confusing. i have to say i was very uncomfortable in his class all semester.
Professor Karapetyan is a good teacher. His lecture is very understandable. Statistics is a difficult subject, but he makes it easy to understand. Homework, quizzes, and test are online (Math-XL). He is a fair grader, but you need to work for your grade. I would take him again.
An amazing professor. Whatever depends on him- he does brilliantly. He clarifies everything, answers all the questions, gives you a chance to improve your score. But you gotta work and read, try not to miss anything cause it will be harder for you to catch up. This wasn't an "easy A", but if you work properly,you'll get it
Professor Karapetyan is truly amazing. You have to work hard for an A. He is so nice and caring. He is willing to help all of his students. His lectures are the best. Professor Karapetyan is funny and enlightening. His lectures are to the point and teaches what is necessary for one to succeed in the course. I recommended this professor completely.
I'm horrible at math, failed it a couple of times. Mr. K's math110 class is so easy going and clear. He explains everything in such a clear and caring manner. Took his class during the summer session and passed with B. I'm so thankful I enrolled in his math course, I wish he taught other math subjects. Do your HW, come to class and pay attention!
Take this class. It's simple if you take notes and come to class to listen. Mr. K is a wonderful professor at Lacc. I wish he taught other math courses. You won't regret this at all.
The Prof is so funny and his class is really joyful although it a MATH class
GREAT EXPERIENCE AND VERY FAIR TEACHER.
He is very funny and easy to understand. All you have to do is listen and take good notes and you will pass.
This professor is great not sure why some are leaving bad feedback on him, so far i have a c + on 167, but im really bad at math! he's very nice and teaches good. i greatly recommend! no book but my math lab is used.
I took Mr. K for pre-algebra and then for pre stats. I have learned so much from him. Math was not my strong suit and now I can say that Im proficient. I got an A in MATH167! Best math teacher hands down! Do yourself a favor and take his classes. If you apply yourself you WILL learn and get a good grade.
Mr. K is amazing im really bad a tea nth i took pre stats and he make it easy someone i failed my final and got a C but over all i kept a b in the class. He explains really good and seems to love what he does. which make him great! i would recommend. hawk is online
Dont take him he doesnt give sample test! You wont know what to study take another professor unless if your good at math he goes to fast!!!
Thank God for Karapetyan!!! I am glad I ended up with this professor. He gave test questions straight from the homework or lecture notes and very little ones, about 5-10. Final was about 16 questions. Everything he said was on the test. Little hw. He makes sure his students get the math and is hilarious. Very helpful and friendly, would take again
Loved this professor!! Everything he said was going to be on the test WAS on it. All lecture notes were part of the test/final. Hes caring of his students and wants everyone to pass. Hes also very hilarious. I was able to learn a lot because of his teaching. All straight from the book. Definitely recommend him.
Professor was ready to help all the time and he welcomed all the questions. Although he could go fast at times, but you could ask him to slow down any time you want. I don't know why he is getting bad rating, but he is a very good professor for me. He is funny too.
Mr. K is a great professor! He explains concepts thoroughly and prepares you well for exams. Exams are based on the exact online homework questions. His humor is a plus too!
I would high recommend this professor !!
Great Prof! Very clear of what he expects from you and accessible. He lectures for most of the time then lets you do HW. He does skip over some stuff but you can just read the book! (you basically read the book during his class) Note I took this course over the summer.
Professor Karapetyan is awesome, I hate math but I loved taking his class because he genuinely cares about helping you pass. Take his class if you're willing to put the effort into the grade.
Professor K is not the worst but not the best. He is decent but unlike most professors, he did not continue lectures after the online transition resulting from COVID-19. The whole course was basically self-taught. He is funny and has a great personality. He teaches very standard material. Tests are based on homework questions.
Very straightforward, very clear, and teaches at the eye level of the students. Most math profs make me feel alienated by their lectures and tests being extremely different. Prof K is very consistent and teaches us better ways to teach math. He also takes steps gradually and doesn't deep dive into the sea of math. Much better than other math profs
As long as you are committed to the class and have good attendance and participation points really does count in this class you will have a good grade in the class.
Professor Karapetyan teaches an average statistics class.
Professor Karapetyan offers a relatively average statistics class overall, provided that you are an independent learner. He is a caring, funny person, but in my opinion, he should not be a statistics teacher. He has trouble answering questions about the material, a concern which is probably exacerbated by the fact that English is his 2nd language.
stats is challenging so u WILL need to study on your own. however, prof k is super approachable - ask questions if ur struggling! take good notes & DONT miss class bc material moves by quickly!! the hw assigned thru the online book is super helpful as test review. if u get good hw grades, youll get a good test grade, promise. def recommend!
Overall he is a good teacher he is understandable, when it comes to work you can do homework or classwork depending your style. Also when it comes to test he tells us a week before it actually starts. He's a chill teacher you can work at your own pace
He is understandable and very light hearted. The HW was on Aleks math with unlimited attempts and had reasonable due dates. He taught VERY clearly and let us out a bit early sometimes. He was also open to extra credit by simply attending tutoring at the PI Shop (Instant 5% grade boost). He would also round your grade up. You should take his class.
Professor Karapetyan traveled to Europe during finals week. He left a week before the finals and returned two weeks after the finals. The tests always gave errors, and I had numerous visits to the ER, but he refused to give a makeup. The class was supposed to be 2 hours, but he did only 30 minutes. I wouldn't write a review, if received support.
He's very average
Professor Karapetyan teaches a challenging yet rewarding stats course. His clear explanations and openness to questions make the material manageable. Utilizing Unstuck ai alongside the textbook is a great way to prep for exams.
P1: Hes a really good professor he has an accent which is hard to understand but he is really calm and can be funny when you talk to him. He uses alerks for assignments and gives 4 days to complete at home test.
The professor's teaching style made the material difficult to follow. Explanations were often unclear, so I relied heavily on the textbook and outside resources to understand the topics. Missing even one class affects performance. Overall, the lectures were not effective, and I would not recommend this course.
