Wonderful professor with an odd sense of humor. He explains the lessons very clearly and won't slip in any surprises on his tests. He is quite approachable and doesn't mind clarifying things if you're lost. He also curves generously if the tests are bad.

Boring class, but hey its math. Tests aren't very hard, you just have to definitely study (unless you know the material very well). Really nice, and helps you whenever you ask for it. Very clear and goes through everything thoroughly and doesn't go off-topic. Nice guy too.

I found this man hilarious, yes the class was boring but math is never really entertaining, but he's sacarsm was too much. As long as u study for the test you ok cuase they aren't impossible. He always answers questions, especially on problems from the book. Always there for help.

I thought his class was very easy. He teaches well, but he sometimes went fast and usually skipped a few steps, so you have to pay attention. Tests are easy! half is multiple choice, the other you half you show work. He does curve. And tests do come straight from the book. Does not require you to do homework, but it helps. Overall good.

Loved this guy. He explains very good and goes over all the topics with full explanations and examples. His tests come from the book but he picks the hardest ones. Over all, if you study, you are ok.

whoever fails this class is stupid.its easy as long as you attend and pay attention.he explains everything step by step and gives plenty of examples.if your bad at math i recommend doing the homework although he doesnt check it.i never did 1 homework problem and im getting A.the guy is nice and funny and always willing to help.juststudyforthe4tests

sarcastic prof. cracks jokes @ 8am. Tests are super tricky but hes willing to help you out. study hard and pay attention. ask lots of questions b/c he sometimes goes really fast. overall though hes a good prof. i just would rather have had him at a later time.

imagine having to face math at 6:30 am. I love this professor. he is very helpful, study and pay attention and you'll pass for sure, he woun't leave anyone behind.

he is very specific when explaining, and is always willing to help. the tests are ok, as long as you study you'll do fine, he doesnt put any surprise questions, he gets the questions from the book but hard ones. i would recommend him

good teacher

He is a very good teacher. he will always try to help you or explain the problems until you get it. everyday he will ask if you have any questions and he is willing to spend time with you helping. You can also go up to him at any time before class and he will sit down and answer any questions you may have.

A satisfactory teacher. Pretty boring, but he tries to add some sarcastic humor every now and then. There are no surprises in the tests, and he might curve them. The material was pretty decent, but it got more difficult towards the end. Sometimes he would block the board and skip some steps. He would answer questions (but not too much).

good teacher. not very exciting but its what you make of it. take notes and study adn you will do fine. the test are no surprises but they aren't very many questions so you have to be prepared.

Here's the low down. I'm a 4 time MAC1105 flunkie. This guy will help you if you show interest and study. He's really cool and is very fair on grading. If you are struggling with math, take him. Don't quit mid semester. Stay till the end and he'll give you a hand in passing. Don't miss tests. He's a God send for anyone who puts in the effort

Best teacher in the math department. Good luck getting in. He is willin gto help at all times even in class. Very thorough and clear explanations. Strongly recommend him to everyone.

Stay AWAY from this guy...you will barely pass math if you do...Im a 3.5GPA dude and this guy has me almost failing a class for the first time in my life. Explains OK, monotonous voice, but exams are HARD, IMPLOSSIBLE to hi more than a D+/C...run away, get another teacher!!!!

I loved this guy...even though he puts you to sleep. Hes easy, helpful and very understanding. He grades test very lenient...One time he forgot to grade on of my problems, I went back, he graded my problem and gave me a new grade which i didnt expect. He's a very nice man...don't pay mind to people who say he sucks cuz hes very nice.!

The best math professor that you can hope for. Gives great, NEAT notes and lectures and breaks it down for you nice and easy. He is also very funny. He's great! Highly recommended.

Awesome professor.He is NOT monotone; he just has some dry humor to entertain students because he knows the material itself is dull so you can't blame him for trying.He's super nice and won't give you attitude or nothing.His notes and lectures are great and you will hope he was your math professor for every math class you will ever have to take!

The teacher is helpful, but the class is pretty hard there are 3 quizs and two test study hard because there are not easy!

I took him for the summer and I never went to class I went the first week of class and only showed up on test dates afterwards. I studied on my own with the book and managed to get a decent grade. His classes are boring, but HE DOES HELP!! he is super nice, just make sure he knows who you are and show him you are trying and you'll be ok.

very funny, easy learning .....but his tests have like 5 questions so if you get 1 wrong you can say goodbye to getting an A, if you get 2 wrong, gg

Teacher is decent enough. He makes things pretty clear while teaching. He uses the textbook but you are not required to get it or bring it to class. His homework is basically what he goes over in class. But he IS monotone. He tries to make little jokes, but usually ends up chuckling by himself.

awesome professor, explains very clear, good sense of humor, gives 5 tests and a final and drops lowest grade

He teaches you what you need to know. Makes weird jokes and comments. Very monotone. I hated this class but if you read the syllabus and teach yourself then you can pass with a high grade. 5 exams and one final.

I wouldn't say he's a bad professor,however, His tests are extremely difficult and there is not enough time to finish, he doesn't give extra credit and you grade is based on 5 tests + the final. Super Hard for a Finite Math class. I would take an easier teacher to assure the A

Great teacher but it is math. I love it but the facts are the facts. Half the class dropped out by the end of the semester.

I love this class. Taylor is very helpful and has a great sense of humor. I learned Alot in jus a few short weeks and he motivates me to study. The tests are hard but studying the material covered within 24hours after having class should help you. it helped me. Hello its math, you have to study

cool teacher, just like to do assignments his way and not like the book. Class participation makes class fun, otherwize can be very boring.

he does the class with a ti-83 making it the easiest calculus course u can take. He gives no c-. get 70 and u pass. plenty of exams. no curving! maybe 5 points if the entire class does horrible. Exams are easy, basic stuff. what he teaches in class, is whats on the exam. so come to class. no powerpoint presentations anymore. no quizzes. a bit lazy.

Good teacher. Cares about his students, the only downside is like people said he is pretty monotone. Hes a pretty good professor, I would recommend him.

This guy is very nice. Corny jokes, but sometimes funny. Teaches very well in my opinion. Cool Accent. Easy Tests, I don't know why people are complaining about them. For my class he had 10 multiple choice worth 3 each, then 5 Working out problems worth 70 points. Easy grader. I would recommend him if you are decent in Math and want an A/B easily..

I dont understand why so many people thought he was so bad. he was very monotone, but i always understood what he was saying. I actually learned alot in his class.All you have to do is show up to the lectures, and you will do fine on the tests. there are only like 4, and he gives extra points!!

Most of the comments about this teacher are regarding the subject, rather than the man. He gives it his all for his students, and regularly helps those outside of class hours. I will say he does have a dry sense of humor which can be a super snooze combo when mixed with math. Also, he doesn't curve, your grade depends on how much you practice!

He types all his lectures clearly and puts them on a big projector and explains each one. Yes, the subject is hard, but he does try his best to teach it. No sense of humor though. He doesn't allow a calculator on 80% of his tests :( and makes you memorize a whole bunch of things. I'm torn between like and dislike of this class and the teacher.

Overall, I think he is an okay teacher. This class does not require attendance but it definitely helps and requires plenty of time for studying. His quizes are challenging, so you MUST study. you wont be able to pull your grade up with hw, he doesn't grade it. He is nice and approachable, but is a sloowww speaker really boring at 8 am lol

He's only Social Math professor I've been able to pass. Don't miss class and take good notes. There are four exams (three sections and one cumulative) and they are very simple and to the point. No stupid definitions or other fillers. All of your answers are in the notes/examples.

You will hear a lot about the "probability pizza" and many other funny phrases he has coined. He is EXTREMELY knowledgeable on the subjects he is teaching about. The lectures are long, and quite boring. Study like crazy before the tests. I took both Finite and Soc. Choice with him and got A's in both. Just do not slack and take lots of notes

The thing with Taylor, is that he's a math genius. He expects us to be prepared with basic math knowledge. If you don't have a strong math background you will have to work hard. Like tutoring, studying. When I took him I noticed he wants his students to pass, because he always sent us study guides and some problems on the tests were very similar.

The class is NOT hard.The test questions are NOT hard. The reason people fail is because they make silly mistakes. The tests are 4/5 questions so if you mess up you're done. There is no extra credit. If you do not have a solid background in math do not take him. I barely got an A in the class and I had a perfect SAT math score.

I loved this class. He made it very easy to learn the subject, but when I didn't understand something he allowed us to ask questions. The tests had 4-5 questions and they were fairly easy if you paid attention in class. Lots of online homework, but they're pretty easy. Great teacher! Just pay attention and come to class!

Very good teacher. He's a bit monotone, but it's really not that bad. His first quiz and exam 3 are easy. Study really hard for quizzes 2-4 and the final. You don't need the book, but IT REALLY HELPS YOU A LOT. Also, seek a tutor if you're not good at math. He gives reviews, which are helpful and he gives you a lot of chances. Great guy and teacher

Extremley easy teacher and extremley easy class. Only attended 3 days which were test days, never bought the book and never attended lecture and I got a B. This finite math class is worth it

Amazing professor, ALWAYS IN A GOOD MOOD!!! explains from a power points and does not hesitate to explain again the problem. Very fair grading and exams are fair. Remember that in math you must study and revise a lot! TAKE HIM, HE IS GREAT.

Three tests, and one cumulative final. He reviews before tests (except for the final), which helps a lot. They are pretty much the same problems with different numbers. My notes got damaged, so he emailed me previous notes. He uses definitions straight from the book, and uses the same examples. HW isn't mandatory.

Pretty simple class. Professor is very helpful and will share his notes up on request. A little boring and you may want to read over the notes. no reason to fail this class.

Great professor, I don't know why he has such bad reviews, took this class summer B 2014. He gave out 3 test and 1 final, he didn't assigned mandatory homework, but gave suggested exercises to practice. Final test was a little hard.

He's an awesome professor and captivates you from day one with incredibly engaging topics. Students say he reads off his notes, and he does, but they are his own he has used for years. He gives you the questions to his midterm and final and chooses 3 of the same questions he gave you and you pick one to answer! Not an intellectual terrorist!

Before taking the class I was very hesitant because of the reviews on this website. But I'm so glad I took the class because its honestly not difficult, all the material you have learned in high school and if you pay attention you will do fine. He is open to questions and love when you ask them. I did great and I was very worried about the class.

First things first, I'm horrible at math so I knew this class was going to be a hard one to pass. I failed the first test because I didn't study, but I spoke to professor Taylor about it and he helped me out a lot. This class isn't hard, you just have to study and understand the concepts. Taylor has your best interest at heart.

Professor Taylor is GREAT! He is always willing to help. You have to do your part in taking notes, but he is very good at explaining everything and going over everything slowly to make sure you understand it. He really wants his students to do well.

Professor Cleveland is an amazing professor. He does have a monotone voice but deals with it by making jokes which make the class go by really fast. He goes by the powerpoints and makes sure you understand each slide. His tests are a bit tough but he did give a make up test for the class if you got below a certain grade. Would take him again!

Prof. Cleveland is great. He's class can be easily passed by learning to do the practice exercises which are identical to the test questions. He's monotone voice can be bothersome but all over a very easy class to pass. Very smart gentleman.

He's and awesome teacher. he reviews every type of question and shows you how to approach the answers i different ways. he uses the digital projector and writes out the questions as he teaches and goes step by step. Kind of monotone but awesome teacher. Make sure to do the homework though. he pulls the exam questions directly from the review q's

The teacher does the notes and goes it over very slowly in the extended class, he takes questions and is not afraid to re-explain something. The homework is optional but the tests come from the homework! As long as you go to class, participate and do the homework passing is no problem! You will look at the test, and go through it in a beat!

He gives notes in class everyday and has suggested exercises on the syllabus. The class consists of 4 tests and a final. He drops the lowest test from the first 3 you take. All his test are based on the problems he does in class or suggests on the syllabus. If you do all the problems on the syllabus you will pass the class!

Professor Taylor is amazing! I am horrible in Calculus and he goes super slow, step by step and even reviews the algebra. Try to take the extended class if you are bad at math. 4 Tests and a final, Test ARE HW Questions, some of which are covered in class! This class is difficult but Prof. Taylor REALLY helps! Recommend 100%. A really good Prof.

Great Professor. He made the class very easy to pass. Homework is not mandatory but he gets all the test questions from the homework so if you want to do well I suggest you do the homework. He goes over everything in class and answers all your questions.

This professor only teaches you what will be on his exams. He gives you a review and drops 1 out of the first 3 exams. test 4 is the hardest. the final is cumulative. I finished with a B but I really did study on my own. His lectures arent difficult to understand but you must go over the material on your own. He also gives alot of partial credit.

Professor Taylor is one of the best math teachers I've ever had. His business calculus class was excellent, but you need to be ready to ask questions. I do not recommend an early morning class with him. His class consists of 5 tests. Of the first 3, the lowest is dropped. The 4th and the 5th are mandatory. ALWAYS DO THE HOMEWORK!!!!!!!

SUPER EXCELLENT PROFESSOR. Stop complaining and make an effort. Look in a mirror if you find him so tough. Took him at both MDC and FIU. By far the most knowledgeable Prof in his field. Hopefully still teaches.
