I had an A all semester even though I stink at math. We had homework between almost every class period. Some of it took 30 minutes, some days it would take hours to finish. He gives a lot of notes, and all the work is online. However, the final was impossible. Most people I know got below a 50. It dropped my grade to a C, despite an A all semester.

I took him my first semester here. I always made A's in any math class I've ever taken. I asked him for help and he turned me away acting like I was stupid. Tests are the hardest things I've ever taken. Honestly he should be fired.

He's not as bad as what people make him out to be. Yes a ton of homework but it only HELPS your grade. sometimes homework doesn't match up with notes bc it can be tough but its doable. test are way easier than homework. gives bonus points for going to class. DO NOT TEXT IN CLASS. as of right now i have a 100 even though I've failed some quizzes.

DO NOT TEXT IN CLASS. he gives points if you don't towards the end of the year. You have a quiz and roughly 40 problems of homework after every class which does help your grade ( or ruin it like me ). he does put all the notes online everyday and everything but your final is online. he will call you out if you do something wrong in class.

When I first signed up for this class, I was worried about being able to pass based on the previous reviews. Currently, I have a month left and it's one of my easiest classes. All he wants is you to pay attention in class and do your homework, it's really not that bad. Keep up with homework and pass the tests and you can get an A. Stay off phones.

Going into the final I had a 120. That should say enough. He gives bonus points just for going to class, and the homework and quizzes only HELP you. If you work hard on assignments and pay attention in class, its an easy A. He does not take attendance. Give no effort, your A could easily drop to a C by the end of the course. Class is very boring.

Ridiculous amount of homework and quizzes. Like hours of homework nightly. If you ask an honest question in class, he makes you feel stupid with his sarcastic answers.

He is very helpful in the way that he gives many examples and explains things very thoroughly. Attendance is not required but it's a good idea to go. All tests are online (except the final) and expect 2 assignments and a quiz after each class on My Math Lab. The final weighs alot.

AVOID. RUN. DO NOT TAKE. It's not worth the bad grade. He is awful. Posts all powerpoint online, and literally just reads them in class. No elaborating. Will not help you when you have a question, does everything to make you feel stupid (he actually called my class stupid on the first day). The homework is easy but the tests are EXTREMELY harder.

He is sarcastic and not helpful at all. If you ask a questions about the powerpoint or homework he will make you feel stupid. Part A of homework is always easy but once you get to Part B expect nothing higher than a D.
