His class is very well structured. The only teacher I've ever had who types up handouts for each section. But he's not a very good lecturer and often the class ends before he can finish the lesson.

This guy is the shiznits, although he is not the best math teacher that I've ever had, but he tried real hard, so rezzpekh for Chamberlin's powa

Not a very hard class, and a lot of work is put into the handouts which are definitely a nice thing to have. Many examples are done in class which helps for understanding. However, he seems to have a bit of Napoleon Syndrome

I think Chamberlin was a good teacher even though he goes really fast through sections. But he makes sure that you understand what he's doing. The tests aren't to bad if you know what you are doing. But overall he's not a bad teacher to have.

I liked Professor Chamberlin, a professor who is actually prepared for lessons, and goes beyond being a clear and structured lecturer by taking the time to print out notes for you to follow along in class, makes it easier to listen to what he is saying.

Overall Craig is a very good teacher, and while he may go over the material at somewhat a rapid pace, he always states that he is available after class to help. His class is very structured and gives lots of homework, so be prepared to invest your time.

This is a very nice teacher! He explains things pretty well and clearly.

He's kinda nerdy at first...But he is a GREAT teacher

He's a good professor. He wants you to learn thats the best part. He really wants you to do well in the class.

He seems to care. He is a great teacher. I would recommed him to anyone. However, don't take him in the summer. He goes really fast.

He integrates Maple labs(used in universities) in calculus class. He moves fast, tries to cover all materials for the class, while other teachers spent most time on the first few chapters and leaves the last third of the book to the students.

Really nice. Wants all students to exceed. Attendance is a must to pass. But overall awsome. Take him. I hate Math so much but he made it enjoyable

Very strict on attendance and punctuality. Takes up too much class time with those.

Class was really difficult. I recommend you take the class only if you are willing to go to every single class period. The tests are difficult and you have to make sure and do every little thing he asks. I got A's on all the tests but I got a B in the class.

he's strict about showing up late/missing class. his tests are fairly hard, but pretty fair. he's very available to answer any questions you may have. he's personable, has a sense of humor. so long as you're willing to put the effort into the class, he's a great teacher. not easy, but *great*.

He knows his stuff. Level of difficulty depends on how fast you pick up stuff and your attendance. I screwed up and got a D on one test, but still mustered out a B+ at the end. He's not impossible, but attending lecture is important and required. Do not talk during class or show up late, you will be on his evil list for life. Kinda nerdy.

If you attend class and do your homework you will pass.He's kinda nerdy but its entertaining.Fairly easy grader and curved tests so that the average score passed.Don't bother taking him if you don't plan on coming to class everytime, and being late isn't acceptable!

If you go in with a "I'm still in high school. Go seniors!" mentality then of course you're going to hate him. He is thorough in details & explanations, going to his office hours is helpful. If you're always irresponsible, late, and disrespectful, don't blame him for your own lack of judgement. He isn't here to pat you on the back & give candies.

This is college so you should take it seriously and show up to every class. He tries really had to make the class good and cares about his students. These are the reasons why I took him for MATH 120, 200, and 205.

Chamberlin is great. You do have to show up, and get there on time, but this is college, remember? As long as you take notes and do your homework you will succeed. Teacher is very clear and always offers extra help during office hours.

He goes pretty slow through each section and helps you when you ask. Overall, not a bad teacher, but it's math, so you have to study for every test.

It's funny--many students say "I GOT an A or B", but "The PROFESSOR gave me a C or D." I think Craig is good.

Very clear lectures, easy to folow and teaches in a way that makes since. He doesnt drop a test like most teachers though, so you have to be carefull on every one. The best Math teacher I've had at Palomar. I would recomend him.

Excellent teacher all around so long as you show up and pay attention.

One of the better math teachers I've had. Explains things clearly with examples like they will be in the homework and on the test. He really like math so get ready for lame jokes. If you can sit through the class you can pass it no problem.

tuff but fair and comprehensive

Chamberlin is a great teacher. You will work hard in this class. He explains everything that you will be learning. He lectures at a good pace and is helpful for questions you have. He is also funny and easy to get along with. I recommend using math lab and completing all homework. take this class.

he's an awesome teacher

Good Class. The lectures were well organized, and the tests were reasonable as long as you study.

Great professor. Very easy to understand, makes the formulas seem easy and explains things in great depth. Takes a boring class and does his best to make it seem more interesting.

He is an awesome professor! Lectures with clarity and is always there if you need help. I recommend this teacher to everyone. The secret is to do your hw and study, because his tests come directly from the hw.

He is a really cool teacher. I try to have him as my math teacher in every math class.

Take him! His lectures are crystal clear and if you miss something, he'll stay after class and explain. Do your homework; it's part of your grade and the test material. He's easy on the eyes and . . . nice arms!

This guy's really cool, he explains things that you need to know. he's funny, is easy-going, and is clear in his examples. If you are a slacker, then don't take his class, you have to listen in his class, and do the homework, if you do, it's easy to do the tests and get good grades.

You will NEVER have a better Calc 3 teacher than this guy at any college you go to. He doesn't sit around and do proofs all lecture like most University profs (who usually have thick accents), but actually does problems. (He also does prove most of the theorems btw) HWs not bad for Calc 3, and his tests are based on hw probs or examples from class.

Pretty good teacher. Pretty fair and linient. He really does know how to teach. Short tests and really easy if you study them

he is an amazing teacher who tries very hard at what he does and attempts to make class intriguing with nerdy humor. he's a nice guy. but calc 2 is HARD itself so be careful & keep up with the hw. one of the best as far as math goes

This guy is great! Makes calc2 very easy to understand, super clear lectures. Tests are just like the HW and class examples. he just need to do more proves like Lowenkorn.

Fun class, he jokes around with the students a lot. If you do the HW you should get an A, the best calc III teacher ever.

This is one of the best teachers I've ever had. His tests throw no curveballs and are very straightforward. And he also explains how to do problems, but more importantly he teaches you why, which was big for me. He always tries to lighten the mood with his brand of corny humor. overall great guy.

Although MAth 115 is a difficult class, (Attendance and homework are absolutely required to just pass) he does the most a teacher can do to teach the material, (a lot of it is memorizing equations)A very clear, and pretty helpful teacher. Grades fair and helpful. Would/will take another math class with him in the future.

This guy is a great math teacher! Took his 50 min class and got an A! U MUST GO TO CLASS! Take excellent notes. HW every night and he collects it the following day. DO IT THOUGH! Some of the questions on the test are off the HW and NOTES especially the word problems! Graphing calculator is a must, he says you dont need one but you really do!!

He is AMAZING. BEST teacher ever. He will explain something 50 times until you get it. It is obvious he cares deeply for his students and wants all of them to succeed. His tests are just like the hw and notes so study those. He also gives 5-10 extra credit points on every test. His final was easy and so were all of the tests. He is also super nice.

Craig is a g. He makes sure everyone understands the material. His tests are straight forward, most of the questions are from the homework. Expect 3-5 hours of homework a week. Tests keep getting easier, final wasn't bad at all. He loves mario kart on wii and jack handy quotes.

Chamberlin is the BEST teacher ever!! He is an excellent instructor because he knows the material very well and loves math. He has really nice personality and he's helpful w students, gives you extra credit opportunity, no quizzes other than for EC and regular tests. He assigns eoo hmwk problems and he makes math easy to learn. Pay attention, do al

He's probably one of the best math professor's i've ever had. I found his test questions to be rather confusing though, he will tell you to study HW or previous test questions to prepare but he doesn't use those problems. DO THE HOMEWORK ALL OF IT! he picks random sections to collect.

Great teacher. Explains things thoroughly, and will not rush in order to cover/complete a section. Tests are easy if you study and do all your homework (duh!). I would take any math class with this guy as he makes sure you understand. FYI: he loves to collect homework.

I love Chamberlin! The best math teacher at Palomar!

Great teacher. His tests and homework loads were completely reasonable. Do you homework, study what he tells you to study, and ask questions. If you do all of this, you should be perfect.

Simply the best. One of the greatest qualities of Chamberlin as a teacher, is his clarity. His pedagogy in approaching mathematical concepts is fluid and crystal clear. He even draws parallels with math concepts and life lessons that simply enrich your class experience. Do the homework, study those problems, and you'll excel on the exams.

Chamberlin is very organized and very helpful. He spent hours helping students with their homework after class. Two days before the final, he met with us on his own time and spent 2 hours answering questions. His online videos are also a great help. Tests were based mostly on the homework. He's not easy, but he will help you learn.

Awesome teacher. As long as you do the homework, his class is easy.

This teacher is awesome. Some of the lectures was like he knew exacly how to teach it so that EVERYBODY could understand it. FOr the test...Study the medium hardnes hw problems and you will do good. Great class.

He is VERY FAIR. His homework is basically a study guide for his tests. If you know how to do every hw problem ( which he customizes which is nice) then you should have no problem passing. Reccommend him to anyone taking Calc 3!

Great teacher & super nice guy. He is very clear with how he presents the material and will always stay after class to clarify any confusion. He does everything he can to get his students to learn the material and pass the class, but you still need to do your part. Class starts out difficult & gets easier as the semester progresses. Stick with it!

Professor Chamberlin's lectures were very clear and helpful and he is an easygoing professor-easy to ask questions in this class! His tests were not surprising as long as you study the material he tells you to study (can print out a study guide). I would definently take him again-the class was straightforward and he is a great professor!

Really excellent professor. Calc3 is not an easy subject, but he spends lots of time going over homework, reviewing math we've forgotten, and has GREAT test prep. He will do everything he can to help you. Lectures are long but he's very funny and kind. Take him if you can. Show up, do all the work (twice if you have to). It's hard, but that's math.

Excellent Professor. He spends the beginning of class going over homework and is always willing to answer your questions. He provides great test prep and always wants you to succeed. Easy A. Highly recommend.

He's a good math professor and wants to help the students succeed.

Hands down, the best Math teacher I have had at Palomar. A professor who genuinely cares about the success of his students, Chamberlin would routinely stay well past the end of class to help anybody (sometimes until 10pm). The class was challenging, but I could not recommend a better teacher for this course.

Hes a really nice guy a prof. I would take a class with him again if I had to.

He's really nice and helpful. Thought this class was easy and passed with an A. Do the homework, it's not that bad. He uses MyMathLab for homework - it's really helpful if you skipped class and don't understand what's going on.

Best math teacher I've had! Super nice guy, explains math with simplicity. has made math enjoyable!! If you hate math like me, take this guy!

Best teacher I've had at Palomar. His lectures are clear and organized, and he is very approachable. But the class is not easy. You have to do the homework and go to class consistently to have a chance of passing.

Good teacher As far as Calculus II goes he makes it as easy as he can without ditching the proper curriculum. He offers extra credit where he sees fit tests only. Tests are very similar to homework and in-class examples. Physical homework collection is random so stay on top of it along with online homework. Get the e-book package.

Good, funny, friendly, fair. What more can u ask for?

Great professor but not a push-over. You have to follow his test preparation suggetions to do well on exams. Also do the homework because the tests look a lot like the homework.

Good teacher. Not easy but good.

Craig Chamberlin was an awesome professor! I took him my first semester and really enjoyed the class. He covers a lot of material but it is easy to follow and if you have any trouble he is super helpful. I got a D on the first test and steadily climbed to an A. I would definitely take him again.

Boring class but a good professor. Presents the info in a clear, concise way. Tests are reasonable. Lots of homework.

He really explains things well. The tests look just like the examples from class and he let's us get some extra credit based on test corrections. Good test prep.

Whelp I just failed this class and I feel really bad about it. Not because it was super easy but because this teacher put so much work into providing ways to learn the material. He puts so extra effort into explaining stuff to students it makes me feel bad that I didn't take full advantage of his extra videos and problems. Dont make my mistake!

Professor Chamberlin is probably the coolest math professor I've taken here at Palomar. He's really nice and knows what he's doing unlike other professors. His tests can be pretty difficult at sometimes, but he gives you extra credit quizzes to bump up your test scores. Class can be a bit boring at sometimes, but what do you expect its math.

Chamberlin was very thorough and explained everything in depth but it isn't easy. Overall, you need to go to class and keep up with the homework. There is a lot of homework but it is not worth much of your grade it is just assigned so you understand the material. Tests are tough because they are few questions on a lot of material.

Really good teacher. makes math easy and explains everything you need to know for homework and test. Do homework on mymathlab which is very helpful . test are pretty easy based strictly off of homework. you have to attend class to pass. although teacher is kindof corny he is a really good math teacher and prepares everyone to pass the class.

I always struggled with math. I took him for Calc 2. I was surprised by how easy his class was. Seriously, if you can't pass his class you need to be incredibly lazy. He provides notes and vides online, homework has video answers, he provides study guides and practice tests, and he only chooses the easy questions on tests. He's a great teacher.

Calculus isn't an easy class. Chamberlin is a great teacher and really ensures that his students are properly prepared for their educational goals, while still being fair. Also, he's really personable so that makes lecture much easier. Tests are very similar to practice tests and in class example, while not an easy A, he does give partial credit

Calc 2 is really hard but Chamberlin makes it passable. It is by no means an easy A but he gives extra credit opportunities and makes the tests extremely reasonable. He tests based off what we have covered in class and throws no curve balls. You definitely have to study just like any other math class but if you study how he says to you'll do well

Good class. He posted several YouTube lecture videos to give more time in class to ask homework questions and do problems. He gave us great test preparation including sample problems that looked just like some of the problems on the test. Also he gave us a chance for extra credit. Highly recommend.

Craig Chamberlin is a great professor. He makes sure to tell you how to study to pass the class. He has the class watch some of the lectures at home on Youtube to free up time for homework questions and study tips. I definitely recommend him.

- Passionate about Mathematics, does not follow the order of the textbook in order to present the material more cohesively. - Lots of great lecture material. Great for studying. - Tests 90% of grade, homework 10%. Use homework as a study aide more than a grade saver. - I was terrified of this class, but the Prof. made it bearable. Thanks!

Chamberlin is great at explaining hard mathy stuff. The online homework has videos with almost every problem. His YouTube videos are also very helpful. Great prof.

Wants everybody to do well and will answer any questions. Tries to make everything as understandable as possible. Homework is done almost completely online with a few exceptions. Not too many tests or quizzes. Some lectures you have to watch on your own time to make room for homework questions, but the online lectures are only 30 min.-1 hour long.

Mr. Chamberlin is a great teacher. However, once I tried Mr. Chamberlin, it was like he wrote a Dummies guide to Precalc. He explained things so much easier, and it was alot more fun too. However, I do not like how you cannot see your grade, even if you ask. It's very frustrating, just keep track of your own assignments. Overall, I reccomend him.

He is a great professor. Clear, organized lectures along with his own videos of math how-to videos. Great test prep too and he does offer some extra credit, which you won't need if you study what he asks you to.

Tests are worth 65% of your grade and he does not post grades. Be aware of your test grade through the semester if you want an A. I absolutely loved his class. I love how he teaches and he gives SO much extra help through his videos, pre-tests, and practice problems. He genuinely wants the class to do well. If you take his class, put in the effort.

Very clear and helpful lectures. Do the hw and you will do good on the exams. exams are exactly like the homework problems. nice guy.

professor chamberlain is a great professor his tests follow the study guide and he wants you to pass

I LOVED Professor Chamberlin! Awesome, clear, CLEAN professor who cares about his students. Wish I could have him for every math class. Makes concepts easy to understand. Homework load is reasonable. Tests are easy if you study. Above all, just a fantastic guy to be around, doesn't cuss, very friendly and approachable, and wants you to succeed.

Tests are exactly like the homework, often the same problems. 90% of the grade is tests but He is always willing to help and a very nice guy. Understand the homework and you will do very well. No textbook required everything is on his website which is very easy to use.

Math 205 is hard, so don't expect it to be easy. Professor Chamberlin makes this class as easy as it can possibly get. He cares about your understanding and he actually tests your understanding on final exam, so try to prepare yourself during the semester.

Very easy to go to for help. So much material is posted to help you study, videos, lecture notes ect. Would definitely take again.

Chamberlin is a really good teacher. He posts helpful how-to videos, and he goes over lots of examples that look just like the homework. Nice guy.

I took Mr. Chamberlin for a summer semester. It was a 16 week course taught in 6 weeks. Although tough, Mr. Chamberlin did a fantastic job at making sure we understood the information. The way he structures his class is very effective. If you show up, participate, and do the HW you will get a good grade.

I am horrible at math and I have struggled for so long to actually understand the process. If you need a different/better explanation than what you've received in the past I really do recommend this teacher his lectures and explanations are really great at helping you understand. Its a moderate amount of homework and the tests are not too bad

Best teacher I've had at Palomar. He really cares for his students and wants them to do well. However, it is math so you do have to focus and practice in order to do well. He gives extra credit quizzes as well. Show up and do the homework and you should get a good grade.

I am a sophomore in college and I have not taken math since my junior year of hs. The material was really challenging and I did decide to drop this class, but he is a good prof and explains things really well. Math is math so you need to be prepared and dedicate a lot of time to this class. Study and pay attention, ask for help and you will do fine

Chamberlin explains math really well and cares about his students. Tests are reasonable if you study. It is a 5 unit class so expect a lot of work.

Good online class. Easy if you watch the videos and do the homework that goes with them. Tests are mostly based on the homework.

His lectures were short and to the point, ideal for me because math is my strong point and I prefer to apply what I learn right away. His lectures are posted online, so you can review them as many times as needed, along with his notes. Get to know him, he is entertaining, happy to answer questions and provides feedback on tests and quizzes.

Good online class. Follow directions and you do well.

I like this class. No class meetings. Work at your own speed. Lectures in homework online. The class isn't for everyone, especially if you don't do homework

Class had no live meetings, was well organized, and was more or less self-paced. Good fit for me. Not too hard as long as you watch the lecture videos and do the homework.

He is really good at explaining trig. The subject is not easy but Chamberlin made it doable. He is nice and tells cheesy dad jokes.

Funny and fair. His videos are a lifesaver when you miss class.

This was my first college math course and I'm glad that I was able to be taught by Mr. Chamberlin. He cares about his students by always being accessible outside of class and just tries to make math fun. He does assign homework nearly after every lesson but it's good practice. His tests can be hard- but he's always happy to help. Attendance matters

Math is hard. He made it less intimidating. Tests are heavily weighted, so be aware of that from the beginning. Gives some extra credit but you have to work for it. Homework is manageable and has online videos to help when you get stuck. If you study and practice, you'll do well in his class. Best time to ask him questions is office hours.

Good professor but requires you to do a lot on your own time. If you skip class, there's a lot he says in class that isn't in his notes, including a lot of necessary announcements he doesn't post. Class isn't bad if it wasn't so test-heavy. Slip up once and your grade is toast. Says hw is based on effort but grades on correctness.

His lectures were clear and easy to follow. There is a homework due every week on a website you have to pay for, but it's only around 10 quick problems and the website's help videos are a good resource. He posts study guides and uses the problems from it and the homework on the exams. The exams are short and he offers e.c. quizzes after every exam.

Professor Chamberlin makes math fun with his cheesy dad jokes. The homework on the paid website is quick but helpful, and Unstuck ai is a great study tool alongside the free textbook.

He is cool, relatable, and charasmatic. The math is easy but it's clouded by the large amount of terminology/proofs/theorems and he could have taken more time to explain certain topics to make better connections about what things mean and their importance. He knows what he wants to see on tests and is a tough grader, but he gives good feedback.

Very kind and accessible professor, wants his students to succeed. I had him for Linear Algebra and it was his first time teaching it in a while so that class was a bit disorganized and the concepts hard to grasp. However his homework and tests are very reasonable. Highly recommend 3Blue1Brown videos to actually learn the content.

Took him for 115 and 200—amazing teacher. His fill-in-the-blank notes and course structure are god tier, especially for linear algebra. Study and you'll do great. Office hours help a lot. For 200, everything builds on from the first test so understand what span, subspace, etc are n you're golden. Do the practice tests and pay attention! -k
