IF YOU LIKE DISTANCE LEARNING MATH TAKE THIS COURSE. ALTHOUGH HE WILL ANSWER QUESTIONS,YOU ARE PRETTY MUCH ON YOUR OWN. ALSO,THE HOMEWORK ON "MY MATHLAB" IS A JOKE. PLAN TO SPEND ALOT OF TIME IN THE MATH LAB.
Very good teacher. If u have a question he addresses it so everyone hears and understands it. Gives u lil' mini tests everyday that u can do w/a partner so u are helping each other learn-ended up with a C-and I am completly stupid when it comes to math!
he is a cool guy, very laid back, he is interested in what he does and seems to enjoy it almost too much. His methods are clear and very easy to comprehend due to his detail. Great teacher!
I enjoy him as a teacher, you do not need to be shy about questions, cause I asked some pretty stupid ones, he answers them all without making you feel stupid. He tries to keep everyone together, no student is left behind unless they want to be. Great class, Great Teacher
Very boring teacher. If you like to sleep and read in class but still be able to make a good grade then take him.
I think he is a wonderful teacher and if you listen to him in class, learn how to do the problems (mathlab tutors can help too), do all your homework then you should be fine. I'm terrible at math. I almost flunked algebra in high school, but I managed to pull out an A in his class!!
This class was very easy. The homework is all online and if you mess up on a problem you can redo a similar one. Should you be unable to do an assignment on time he's very understanding and will give you extra time to get it done. You will still have to understand the subject matter but for a math class this one was pretty easy.
He spends a lot of time explaining and going over things. He's wonderful at answering all questions and makes a point to be as helpful and upbeat as possible. The only problem is that there's a lot of material in just one day that he goes over. Sometimes he doesn't show all of his work so I don't know how to solve most problems.
Mizell is a good teacher. His homework assignments are online and incredibly trivial. His tests are hard, but not tricky. You either learned it or you didnt. If you're having problems with something he'll spend time with you anytime you want, and at times will spend extra time in class helping you. He's very upbeat, alot like the Blue's clues guy.
I will never take another Mizell class again. I got a D in his Calc, but the very next semester when I retook it with another teacher, I earned a B. His teaching methods don't help out with anything. He gives tests on material learned months ago. Homework and tests take forever to be returned. Can't stand that he puts homework and notes online
not the easiest class in the workd but he is a really good teacher, always more than wolling to help in anyway he can!!
He is a great teacher. He explains everything with so much detail to make sure you understand the material.
Great teacher. I hate math and have never been good at it. I did however pass his class and actually learned some material. Probably not the easiest teacher you could find but I would defintely recommend him.
Very nice man. He only teaches Bus Calc in the summer, so he doesn't seem to flow with it very well. He had to curve almost every grade to keep the class average at 70. Almost the entire class agreed that he was very confusing. If you take Mizell for Bus Calc plan to spend a lot of time in the math lab.
Mizell's explanations can be very cerebral but he can dumb it down enough for clarity. All homework is on Mymathlab.com. Costs $45 dollars to register. He gives great class notes so you don't even need the book. I've never opened mine. He is lenient and compassionate. His exam grading is late but very lenient. Highly recommend
DO NOT TAKE HIM IF YOU ARE NOT GOOD IN MATH! Very confusing, and very annoying.
Not the easiest teacher, but more than willing to help his students learn! I agree with the person who said his explanations are cerebral, but he makes it understandable. If you like math and want to learn, he is awesome!! He loves his topic and it shows...very refreshing. I would take a class from him again, no second thoughts!
Choice between Polk or Mizell, chose Mizell. No practice exams to prepare for test. The reviews were practically useless. The info covered in class, mediocre. If you have collegiate high schoolers in class hope that one of them doesn't complain about him recording himself during class, it would have been very helpful to review his online video's.
I took the class DL. He leverages every bit of technology that he can in order to make the DL version of the class like actually attending it: recorded lectures, class notes, etc. Best DL class I have ever taken.
Took him for Calc II. Calc II is already a hard course to begin with, and his teaching style didn't make it much easier. No test review sheets, and the in-class reviews were pretty useless. Tests averages for the CLASS were high 60s/low 70s the whole time, even with big curves sometimes. Not a horrible person, but teaching method could use work
Enjoyed his class, his teaching style is very clear and precise.
I took this DL and it was really easy and he was really flexible with schedules.
It is obvious that he likes teaching math and that he teaches a higher level of math. But when he tries to teach basic Algebra a total bore. If you are not good at math or it has been years since you last taken a math class Mr. Mizell is not for you. I have been told that his wife is a better teacher at this class
Extremely nice. Treats everyone fairly. Happy when teaching. Participation is welcome but by no means is it encouraged. You can take the class without every saying a word. I'm not very good in math but passed the class with a B.
Very organized notes and you can tell he likes being a teacher. Very helpful. He has resources online to help you understand. Tests are similar to study guides and notes from class, no tricks, or anything not covered. I just wish he taught statistics!
Soooooooooooooo boring. Learned more from the book than the actual professor.
Awesome teacher!! More than willing to help any student out. Quick to respond to e-mails and any questions you might have. Made an A in the class and I am horrible at math.
Very nice teacher. If you don't know lots of algebra you may want to take prep class. Very good at responding to email. Nice guy and he knows his Math - Just make sure you at the Mac 1105 Level or it is harder.
Great teach. Easy to follow and understand and gives thorough explainations
Great teacher. Easy to follow and understand and gives thorough explainations
Easy to learn from, thorough in explaination, Taught at pace which kept the concepts in long term memory. Take his class if you want to trully learn something.
Liberal Arts 1 with Mr.Mizell proved to be enjoyable. He uses Tegrity during his lectures and posts them online to view. The homework is done online and his worksheet policy is fair. Very good to work with.
I've had Mr. Mizell for both Calc 1 & 2, and was very happy with my experience in both classes. All of the material for his classes is located online, which makes it very convienent if you need to review notes or lecture videos. He is very willing to help you if you are willing to work in his class as well. I definitely recommend him.
Took this class online. I loved the flexibility. I was behind (and 5 months preg)and he worked with me on getting assignments in. He teaches using video so if you miss something, get sleepy, or need to use the bathroom you can just pause it. And I learned more material since I could complete it as many times as I desired. Got an A!
I cannot believe this is a real math class! I grew up solving logic problems and word games so this class is super easy. Mr. Mizell is a nice guy with a great voice. Videos online if you have questions later. Agree w/ pp about participation allowed but not encouraged, but always answers your questions.
Make sure you know math before you take this class. I tested into the class but was way over my head. Spent 49 hours in the math lab and was only saved by generous extra credit opportunities. He is a really nice guy with a sense of humor. He tries to take time to answer questions thoroughly without holding up the rest of the class. COME PREPARED
Mr. Mizell is a fabulous. Taking MAC1105 distance learning. All his lectures are on Tegrity and I follow along with the printed out notes he posts online as well. Gives numerous examples & it all makes sense. The book - dont bother buying it if your taking MAC1105 online. just buy the course compass online pass for $75.00. I have an A at mid-term s
Very flexible teacher! He isn't really strict on attendance and all classes were recorded online for students to view anytime. He is willing to give an extra hand if you need help with something and always gives several step-by-step examples.
This class is strange. Just when you think it's all a breeze, he throws something in there that leaves you wondering "Did I miss something?" He is nice guy and everything, but the class is 50/50. Some easy stuff and some really hard stuff. It's just OK for me.Have a B right now. Would I recommend? If you're good at Math YES if not maybe not..
Mr. Mizell is AMAZING!!! He makes learning hilariously fun! His notes online and Tegrity videos are so helpful:) He and his wife are passionate about MATH and he shows his students he cares. He is always available for questions and his practice tests are EXACTLY like his exams. Do the homework and the class is sooooo easy!! AWESOMENESS!!!!!
Mr. Mizell is a really great guy and he wants to help but if you are not good at math then you are going to have to put in a lot of extra time to pass. I would say take his wife Mary for this class. I had her for int. alg and she was terrific! I had never been good at math but ended up getting an A easily. She gives lots of extra credit! : )
Math for Liberal Arts is a course designed for those not seeking a career in the mathematical field and Mizell understands that. He is very clear and to the point. He records all of his courses through Tegrity, so if you miss a class you can watch the class at home. Course material is easy and Mizell is worth your time.
I thought Mr. Mizell was a good teacher, but he went way to fast. He would slow down if you asked him too, but when he gets into teaching something, he gets into it and I don't think he realizes how fast he is going. Overall, he's good and pretty funny too.
The best choice for math for the liberal arts. gives lots of info on internet and has classes recorded for those who miss the class. I learned a lot I didn't know. If you take this class he is your best option.
Great Teacher!! Going to take him for Calc.
I have taken many math professors at NWFSC. Half of them were great, the other half not so much. Mizell is in the better half! He is a little quirky with his jokes and teaching methods...but that made it fun. He is knowledgeable and will not move on until he thinks the students understand. He's very enthusiastic and always has a good attitude!
Mr. Mizell has a quirky sense of humor and is extremely helpful! This was a blended class for me, and the online quizzes were hard. DO THE WORKSHEETS IN CLASS!! They help so much on the tests!
Dr Mizell is a great teacher. You will earn if you apply yourself in his class. If you have an error in typing something in on the Math lab,save the aper you worked it out on and bring it to him, he will look over it and credit you the appropriate score, so you dont have ot take the whole test/quiz again.
Great teacher, very helpful. Taking again this semester I liked him so much.
I took Intermediate algebra with him through DL. I found him to be very easy if you complete the work. I plan on taking college math him online as well.
Great teacher. Do your homework, listen to the lectures. I found the tegrity videos very helpful. Already signed up to take algebra with him.
Mr. Mizell is so cool.
Mr. Mizell is great!! He is the only instructor I have had in math, that realizes not everyone is a great test taker. There are 3 tests, and a final. He even has a copy of every lecture available online after class in case you need more help when you get home. It's not an easy class, but work hard and show up for class and you'll be OK!
Math is not the easiest subject for everyone, but Mizell does a lot to make it as easy as possible. Sometimes his way of explaining things can be a little hard to follow, but he provides more than enough resources to help figure out the concepts. I'm taking him again this semester for College Algebra.
Awesome teacher! I failed math twice before and passed it with a high B. Highly highly recommend this professor!!!
I am taking his online class. Awesome teacher! He is extremely helpful! I highly recommend him. I am going to take College Algebra with him this fall online. He gives easy to understand directions, reasonable deadlines, and responds quickly to emails.
Fabulous instructor! He has the gene. I am math phobic and I earned an A! Records his lectures for later review or if you miss a class. Makes his own notes for printout and test reviews. Gives bonus points for doing home work. Best case scenario!
Mr. Mizell is a great teacher his classes aren't really hard because he explains things enough to where everyone understands whats going.
He teaches step by step and everything is on tegrity so if you didn't understand a lesson you can go back and watch it on there. Nice guy overall.
Has a voice like a radio announcer. He likes math and you can tell, and he helped me understand more deeply concepts I had gone over in previous math classes. At times the pace was painfully slow, but he's a nice guy who knows his stuff. He also uses a lot of online. youtube resources.watch?v=Q88THNLndtg
BEST MATH TEACH EVER!!! I love this teacher. I take his class online. I has lectures and note online. I feel like I'm in the class (but I skip through the slow parts). He makes Math easy to understand. I wish I could take all of my classes with him!
Best math teacher ever! Yes the class is hard but he gave take home practice quizzes before the test and test were so much like the quizzes. He uses tegrity so you can review class again online or if you miss a class! You couldn't ask for a better teacher with his amount of flexibility. I would recommend him to anyone!
Mr. Mizell is a truly amazing math teacher! I have always been more of an english-type student but was able to completely understand the two classes taught by Mizell. He is extremely helpful and loves teaching math! Absolute best MATH teacher at NWFSC
Math is definitely not my strong suit, but he is an excellent math teacher. I took a blended course, and most of my stuff was online. He was happy to work with you if you had any questions, and promptly responded to any emails. The lectures were very clear, and he worked things so you actually understood them.
Awesome professor!!! I am like Forrest Gump when it comes to math and I received an A in his class. He explains anything you don't understand. He also has his class lectures online which really help when you are home trying to do the homework.
Math is usually my best subject, but I made a C in his class. Mr. Mizell is a nice man and a helpful teacher, but his tests are difficult. You HAVE to study thoroughly. Homework and quizzes will help. I suggest taking him during the Fall.
Mr. Mizell is by far, hands down, the best math teacher I have encountered at NWFSC. Mizell is helpful and has a great teaching method. Tests are easy if you have listened to him and participated in his review. I would highly recommend him to anyone! PS: Don't buy the book, it's not used at all unless you want to look things up on your own!
Easy to understand. He seems to enjoy teaching math, which makes my learning experience enjoyable. Quick to response to emails and will fix any problems with his Tegrity videos. I highly recommend and hope he's teaching Calculus when I have to take it.
Very fun,entertaining teacher,knows his stuff. Very helpful,posts videos and notes online for you. Never really used the book. He explains everything clearly but sometimes I think he rushes through certain parts,but just ask and he will make sure you understand. I suck at math and will probably have to retake the class,but I'll choose him again.
I took Mr. Mizell for MAC1105. He does almost everything he can to help students, so if you take this class and don't understand the material, it isn't his fault. He records lectures on video so students can watch them over and over if they don't get it. Very helpful guy and always enthusiastic about math.
very good teacher. Will take the time to help you out. Very funny .I would recommend Mr. Mizel to anyone taking College Algebra.
I had not taken a math class for 3+ years before taking this and I was surprised how easy it was, mainly because of how good a teacher Mizell is. His Tegrity videos online make all of the problems seem ridiculously easy and he gives you practice problems for both the midterm and final that are very close to the actual tests. Highly recommended.
Good Instruction. Lots of ways to increase test grades, ie, online homework and in-class worksheets. Great radio voice!
Mr. Mizell is an AMAZING teacher. He explains everything clearly enough for everyone, and even if you don't understand, he will explain it in a way you can undersand it. He videos every class, and also has the notes from every class on his website. I recommend Mr. Mizell to everyone!!
Math is a very tough subject for me but as long as you stay up to date on the ALEKS website, watch his video lectures and participate in the D2L group discussions, you should be fine. I tested poorly (like, embarrassingly bad) on the exams but still passed the class thanks to the discussion credit and keeping up with ALEKS.
Math has always been just 'ok' to me, and my last math class was an absolute train wreck, but Mizell made everything clear, used all the class time to go over multiple examples, and was very clear as to what would be on the test. Like any math class there was lots of homework but he has them all open until the day before the test, it's a huge help!
it's online
It was a easy class because well organized.
Prof. Mizell is a really great instructor. His Youtube videos really help. Participating in class discussion on DL website can help your grade. He's really nice and helpful. I would recommend him to everyone taking College Algebra.
as far as it comes to math teachers he is without a doubt one of the best you understand everything he's trying to teach you from his lectures to his assignments and he presents the material in a way that any student will understand and use to pass exit exams!!!
Great teacher who wants you to succeed! Math is tough on a lot of people but Professor Mizell has a way of making things easy to understand. He is fantastic. Gives you plenty of opportunities for extra credit to ensure you will pass this class if you try!
Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic math professor. This is my second time taking one of his math classes and I chose him intentionally. Will take time to explain the material and is quick to answer any emails. He sometimes complicates things, but is open to feedback. This is one of my last math classes and I'm a little sad I can't have him again.
Great teacher, took on line class. This is the second time taken this class. Had to drop last for other reasons. Very fast at email replies, generous grading and extra creditbonus points. Would take again in a heart beat. Best Math teacher ever.
Best mathematics teacher I've ever hadDr Mizell was very precise and taught the material in a clear, poignant way without slowing down so much that it ever became tedious. The exams (mid-term and final) were really indicative of what we'd been learning, and I felt truly prepared for them. Homework done through Aleks, which is the best math site.
Class work done through ALEKS, which pretty much does the teaching. Normal amount of homework for a math class. Gives a ton of extra credit that is based on class discussion. Work is spread out pretty well, and homework/quizzes both give multiple attempts to improve your score. This class has been so much better than Intermediate Algebra.
I can't really give all of the credit to the Professor in an online class that works almost completely through ALEKS, but I have no complaints. He also provide opportunity for tons of extra credit based on discussion board posts. Class has been easier and better paced for me than Intermediate Algebra was.
The online portion of Intermediate Algebra MAT1033A is done through Aleks. The book is OPTIONAL btw, I mistakenly bought it... you can actually use Khanacademy, youtube, or any quality source. Professor Mizell didn't answer my email, but changed my grade about midterms. Overall, he will help if you ask, I still knew math concepts so it was easy
Had for online. He uses the Aleks system which sucks. He was very unclear. Final exam review was 80 questions and the Final was 25 questions. The review was very different from the Exam. I did awful on the exam and my grade dropped 23 Points (Had an A) I would not take again. I do not recommend.
This was my first online math class and he made it so easy. You have 2-3 homework assignments and a quiz a week and the midterm and final are on campus. He gives printable notes to follow his online lectures and he makes everything super easy. Always replied me if i had questions and was really nice. Best online instructor ive ever had.
Before you take an online math class stop and ask yourself," Can I teach myself math?" If you answer "no" then this is definitely not the class for you. There is opportunity to receive bonus points, but homework/discussion/journals only count as 30% of your grade. That is 70% on midterm and final exam, not easy to achieve for most.
Lots of homework, but it's online and there are extra tries to get a 100%. All his notes for class and test reviews are online. If you print them out and do the reviews then you will pass easy! Some of the work is not business related, but that's math. I'm so glad I got him and not the other teacher.
Fair grader. Does not throw curveballs.
Great professor! Soft spoken but so helpful! Homework was online, quizzes about once a week in class. Show up pay attention & ask questions if needed & you'll be fine! Worksheets every day but it's easy & he teaches the lesson right before he hands it out. Walks around & answers any question & helps you. Attendance matters for participation grades.
We only had Dr. Mizell for a few weeks, but he was great. He goes really slow during lectures so the harder material is very easy to understand. He gave us bonus quizzes every week and let us work together on them. On his for credit quizzes/tests he often told us how to do the problem in the instructions. He's easy to find and ask for help as well.
If you have any troubles n math or taking tests do not take this class. There are only two tests and they are nerve racking with a proctor online watching you. The homework is such a small portion of your grade and there is a good amount of it . You have to score really good on the test you only get 2 of them .
Like many other math professors at NWFSC, Mizell does not fully "teach" the material. Rather, he just reads what he is writing when solving an equation. The whole semester I was heavily stressed from the pressure of the tests because they mean so much for your grade. He is a very nice guy and will help you, but the class is not easy in any sense.
I took him for intermediate math and college algebra. Super nice guy but a nerd. I would take his class again.
awesome math professor. I wish I could take him for every math class I had.
The class is hard. The midterm and final count for 70% of your total grade but he gives you everything you need to pass.
I did online and we had weekly homework assignments that had unlimited tries on the problems. His reviews for the midterm and final were very close to the tests and he was very clear on his grading criteria. I'm awful at math and I managed to get a 99.5 in his class and I feel like I learned a lot. TAKE HIM!
Took Mizell for Intermediate Algbra, and I finally "got" math! He takes the time each class to go around and help students thoroughly with problems! He is very friendly, and knows his stuff. He doesn't make you go the hard route to solve a math problem unlike many math teachers. He explains things very well, I hope I can find him for another math!
Prof. Mizell is awesome! I took 2 of his online courses. Just do the work & you'll pass! He gives you plenty of ways to earn extra credit /bonus points with discussions, and prepares your for his tests. Friendly & easy to get in touch with if you need help. And if you're as horrible with math as I was, you definitely want to take his class.
Hated him! He goes off and makes everything way more confusing than needed and none of it makes any sense. I usually have nothing but A's, especially in math and I have even taken Trig. in High School but I still understood none of what he said. He even had so many people fail our first exam he had to rethink how he graded it. Take another teacher.
Mr. Mizell was a nice person but a very uninteresting lecture which wont go well if you have a scatter brain. This class was more of a self taught class. Always print out his practice exams, they are very helpful for the test. We didnt use the book at all in class but it helped with the homework
Lectures were more confusing than need be. I passed this class by watching Khan Academy videos instead of his. Tough Grading and for the online class makes you use Respondus Lockdown, essentially prepare to be videotaped while taking a test - no pressure. It was a tough class with few guidelines, do not recommend if you care to receive an A.
This is by far the best math teach I have ever had in my entire life. I took the class online, he gives amazing video lectures that really help out with the work. He is offers ample extra credit opportunities. This class does have a fair amount of homework, but Mr. Mizell is very helpful in allowing extra opportunity to submit your work.
Prof. Mizell is the best math instructor I have ever had. He explains everything in a way that is easy to digest, while including the hows and whys that no other math instructor I have had cared to include before. I highly recommend you take his classes for any math course you can!
Another awesome semester with Prof. Mizell! Great class as always. Can't wait for the next class!
I have always struggled in math, I actually failed college algebra once before.I just took Mr. Mizzells class online and I actually felt confident for once in math. He gives you practice quizzes that are exactly like the quizzes you take, just different numbers. Also there was no mid term or final, and he drops the lowest quiz grade
Mizell was a great teacher. He is very enthusiastic about math and gives clear lectures about each subject he teaches. Homework online, and all study guides are almost the exact thing as the tests. I had an A in his class all year until the final, but that's because i'm not the best at math and I didn't take the time to study. Great teacher!!!
I've had him for lower divisions Algebra courses and he excels in those classes yet for Calc 2 he over-complicates most of the problems unnecessarily. He's a very helpful professor if you need extra help but in class this is definitely not his best subject.
I love Professor Mizell. I took him for Trig, Pre-calc, Calculus 1, and I wish I could take him for Calculus 2. His lectures are long but in-depth, and his tests are just like his study guides. Always in his office ready to help. Great professor who made me love math!
Professor Mizell is an amazing instructor. I've had him two semesters in a row, different classes. He gives plenty of time to do the assignments. He also gives practice quizzes. He always teaches with a sense of humor.
This professor is by far my favorite math teacher. I have had him for 2 math classes so far and would take him all the way up to Calculus 3 if he taught it. Definitely worth taking. He gets back to his students quickly and teaches very well.
EXTRA CREDIT IS AVAILABLE and helped me get an A in the course, test are 70% of your grade and homework is only 30%. He is a hard Grader
He only gives 3 assignments of homework per module. There's extra problems and resources entirely laid out for you. It worked out, this was the easiest math course I've taken, but it also taught me a few things. Do your work! It seriously goes a long way. If online, get an external webcam ready. His lectures were accurate with what was needed.
MAC1114 Trig online summer session was worse class I've ever taken at NWFSC. Do not recommend this course online unless a wizard at math or have access to an in person tutor. Online summer session was an awful experience with COVID and no in person access to tutoring or prof. Minimal help from this professor when I asked. Killed my love for math.
I don't feel like I learned anything from the actual teacher, just YouTube videos of other people teaching. I made A's on all of the first 7 quizzes but failed the final exam because (in my opinion) the practice questions/study guide did not represent what was actually on the final. Not impressed by him at all. Only take him if you're good at math.
painful. solves problems way too fast, no step by step explanation while solving then just moves on to the next problem without asking if anyone needs more clarification. hybrid, covid and zoom not ideal for upper level math classes. he does not reveiw test problems after grading so you never actually learn the concept. killed my love for math.
I took his class during a trying time when this whole covid stuff was new. For it being whats known as one of the hardest courses of college to pass being calc 2. I am very glad that I was able to take this class with him. If you put in the work and do the homework and review the test review before a test. You will be fine and he rounds the grade!
Dr. Mizell is a nice, chill person, but I never was able to fully learn in his class. I just did not understand his teaching method, so it was much harder for me. Most of the homework was on ConnectMath and you can finish it ahead of time.
Pro: gives partial credit on test Qs very educated on material and gives passionate lectures nice guy Cons: cannot use calculators on most tests a lot of memorization of equations (like 20 in a week before a test) had a mini meltdown spring 2021 that his teaching style is no longer relevant can't stop to explain things in a way students understand
Professor Mizell was AMAZING! So much so, he is the first professor I am making a review for. Don't get me wrong, it's hard work! Just focus, be willing to learn, and don't procrastinate! I was surprised to learn as much as I did with an online course. He also is a very caring professor, and was supportive with every single question/help I needed!
Mr. Mizell is a great math professor. He cares about you and your grade! Extra help is given by him and the mathlab, so if you keep up with your work and ask questions; you should be able to pass the class with little to no struggle. Additionally, the test reviews are very helpful. All questions given will be similar to test questions.
Very good professor. He goes over everything before the test and gives very good study guides that are practically questions on the test. As long as you show up, take notes, and pay attention, its an easy A. He will even give you advice and help you out if you really need it. Would recommend and hope I get to take him again!
Mizell is a great math teacher! His lectures are easy to understand. If you don't listen to his lectures in class, fear not! He has recorded versions of all of his lectures! Lotsa homework tho, and tests are difficult, so make sure to take advantage of the practice problems and test outline if you wanna pass. B grade so far
AMAZING!!!!! I wish I had him for every math class. Super helpful, explained all my wrong answers to me when asked and without hesitation, cares about his students. Gave extra credit for showing work. Answered emails in a timely fashion. so so so amazing. would 10/10 take him for any class.
Professor Mizell is an amazing teacher. I took MAT1033A first and MAC1105 the next semester because he was such a great teacher. His recorded lectures made even the hardest parts of the class easy to understand. He is quick to respond to emails when you need help or clarification on anything.
Mr. Mizell is an amazing professor, very easy to understand and great at using other resources to make challenging concepts easy. Lectures and lessons are clear and relatively short and made learning new concepts and mastering tough problems easy and fun. Highly recommend!
I took this class online and the single thing that allowed me to pass this class with an a was DOING THE PRACTICE QUIZ'S. The practice quiz's single handedly got me A's on every quiz they are the exact same type of questions, and if you can do those you will ace the quiz, and overall pass the class.
Mr. Mizell is an awesome teacher! I took his college algebra class last summer and despite not taking any math classes in about 10 years I still pulled off the grade that I did due to his extensively clear and concise study guides. If you can ace all of the reviews before the tests there is no way that you cannot make a good grade in his class.
Professor Mizell's MAC1105 class is a great option. His recorded lectures and online homework made the material accessible. I found unstuck study and the textbook to be helpful study tools alongside his clear explanations.
There aren't enough good things I can say about Mr. Mizell. He is the professor that turned me from a failing highschool math student to an A+ college algebra student. Whenever I asked for an extra day on an assignment, he would give me a whole extra week. Hands down the BEST professor at NWFSC. Just pay attention in class, and you'll love him too.
This teacher is amazing, just show up, take notes, participate in class, ask questions he will answer them. You will do fine in this class.
took remedial math bc my math credits didnt transfer, our first lesson was quadratic equation. why in the world would you start with quadratic equation? All tests were in Lockdown Browser WITH Webcam... remember, this is REMEDIAL math. Probably won't take again. He just uses a third party website for class and has a student tutor teach his class.
I took the algebra with integrated review, BEST TEACHER! He uses lock down browser, however, his tests are exactly like the hw and practice quizzes he gives you. His lectures are in depth but not too long and give you every piece of info you will need. If you keep up with the lectures and hw I promise this will remain the easiest class.
Professor Mizell was nice and gave great lectures, although he could get carried away showing math examples we would not need for homework or quizzes. This course is homework-heavy, rightfully so; the homework is almost identical to the quizzes. Quiz scores were always adjusted by a few points. Homework attempts are unlimited. Pretty easy class :)
