Its the first time I could say I enjoyed it, and it was also online..which can make it even harder! Thanks so much for letting me see I could succeed at kickin' maths behind

He's a really good teacher. Just a heads up, he's the only Math 1010 class that makes you do a final project. This was my least favorite part of the class, as the final project had nothing to do with the actual class. He also doesn't make the homework due, until the chapter tests (every 4-6 weeks), so beware if you're a procrastinator.
