I thought he was a good teacher. Didn't always agree with him, but he gives you a second chance on your tests. He also helps you in the math lab.

I struggled in this class. I felt he didn't convey the material very clearly or in a good way. If you understand math - logs etc. take him if you need someone to explain and give extra help take someone else.

i got an A from this class you can do it too he does expect alot but he explains really well he has been a teacher for a long time and is a nice man he is very helpful if you have question if you do homework and catch up with class you'll be fine.

The class itself is inherently hard because it requires more critical thinking than most other math classes. However, Professor Nance does a decent job of conveying most of the material (although he does contradict the book from time to time).

Very visual teacher. Through his visualizations he helps you understand the material better. As can be expected tests are very hard as to be expected with this math class. Not the best but better than most.

he's a good teacher, just don't fall behind or you'll screw yourself..

I liked him as a teacher alot, it's very important to keep up and he is very helpful if you're having trouble

Great guy!! Very helpful and very good at what he does! You have to work hard to keep up, but he helps out a lot and makes sure you really understand it. I took him for 2 math classes because I liked him so much.

This was a hard class but he made it fun and interesting by setting high standards but making sure his students understood what was going on.

Best professor I had here. Second time I took Statistics and he helped me much better than my previous professor in this course. Makes the class entertaining. Worth taking.

I really enjoyed the class. You have to do the homework. He answered all my questions I asked. He made statistics interesting but his chokes are corny.

Very good professor. He explains well, but the material is challenging. He bases your knowledge on how well you do on tests, therefore he does not curve grades. He tries to help you to understand the material and is not bothered by questions, he will explain you a problem untill you really understand it.

Stats is hard but he made it interesting. He wants you do well and is willing to help if you make an effort. Expect to spend about 2-2.5 hours on homework.

great teacher. positive attitude. jokes around and makes the class fun. always willing to help. he knows the subject pretty well and encourages students to ask questions. covers everything on the tests, no random material.

Mr. Nance is a great teacher. He is always there to help you if you are having trouble. He stays after class and even helps you if you are not enrolled in his class. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have passed my math classes.

Mr. Nance is a good teacher who actually cares about his students, he is very helpful and his goal is to have you LEARN. Ive taken him twice and recomend him to others. he makes stats easy to understand, and so far pre-cal is not that bad. he does want to prepare you for the next step so he teaches pertinent info. if you struggle he WILL help you.

Mr Nance is a great teacher. He's always open to help when you need help. You can ask him questions before and after class as well as his office hours. He also answers his emails rather quickly. I highly recommend Mr Nance as your teacher

Mr. Nance is a good teacher. he covers the material well and is always willing to answer questions when needed. There arent to many problems assigned in a hw and the ones that are cover the main points of the chapter. Has a good sense of humorm, making the class easier to take especially since it is a 3 hour class.

I learned a lot from Mr. Nance. Keys to his class are don't miss class, do all of the homework, chapter outlines, and projects on time, and don't get behind. He's always available in office hours and helped me a lot. Be prepared for lots of homework and use the MASH center when you get stuck. Statistics isn't hard just tedious.

Out and out the guy wants you to learn. I will not lie he demans alot from you. But on the flip side of that coin you learn he challenges you to learn the material through and through.

I am so tired of seeing these comments from students that swear he is the worst teacher ever. it seems as though if you don't do good in the class you blame the teacher. I hate when people do this because then the poor teacher pays for it through these stupid reviews. He is a great teacher and very helpful. Don't listen to the people who don't try

Professor Nance is the BEST Stats teacher I ever had. He is not the type of teacher who would just lecture and not explain the topic thoroughly. He uses great examples for better understanding of the topic. His jokes may need some help, but other than that he is awesome. For the record, I took his class during 4 week session over the summer of 2008

Prof. Nance is very passionate about statistics. I had him for a month course, and I learned ten times as much compared to my previous stats course. He really gives you the foundation on how to use stats and understand it. I would reccomend him for anyone who needs the course, and wants to get useful knowledge from it.

mr nance is an awesome teacher. do your own homework and you'll pass no problem. tests aren't very hard if you know the material... that being said a lot of people struggle in this class.

K.. here is the story.. this guy is really easy but at the same time really hard... he grades his test really detailed.. and marks off everything.. he explains everything in detailed so you really do understand it.. you just have to study for it.. he is a really great teacher you should take him.... turn in all the home and you'll pass the class...

Nance is a good teacher, and yeah maybe he makes a couple of mistakes but I have to admit that I learned a lot from his mistakes. He's showed me what not to do on a test. Goes over most of the homework, has a sense of humor, and gives second chances when you are not completely ready for a test.

The only reason you should take 180 or 185 is for your degree..So do you expect it to be easy? DON'T. He expects you to WORK. Homework is very time consuming but prepares you for the difficult tests he has. You can only truely respect a teacher if they challenge you to learn. ALWAYS willing to help and he truely cares about your grade if you do too

Made some minor errors on notes, but he corrected himself, fun teacher, great class.

Mr. Nance responded in the rebuttal's section with good intentions. Math is a tough subject, and those who are taking higher end Math classes should WANT to learn. Nance always makes himself available to help his students, so TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT (if you want to be successful)"Don't stand on the pool deck and watch others swim. Participate!" -Nance

Incredibly hard instructor!! Hw is worth very little!! Tests are brutal!! But everyone that passes him can integrate better then everyone else! He makes you learn!! He challenges you. I strongly recommend him to anyone who truly cares about learning cal. Despite what everyone else says, he's a good teacher.. He knows his stuff and can teach you if you're willing to try.

One of the best professor. If you do all your homework and listen to his lectures, you will be able to pass this class. Make sure to go on his website and check for old test solutions before exam. The main important thing is concept. If you get the wrong answer but use the right concept, he would still give you credits

Honestly, whoever said he isn't a good teacher is most likely a lazy student. I took his class, read the text, did hw and listened to his lectures, passed it with an A. He has good sense of humor also.

He kind of teachers the material, but the majority of it you have to teach yourself from the textbook and homework. If you do all the h/w, projects, and study for the tests, you should get by with a B or A. He also hints at test questions, so write them down. He doesn't offer extra credit, but he does put extra credit Q's on the test.

Didn't find his class hard at all, but Math is also an easy subject for me. He is very thorough and helpful if you ask for it. Has an excessive amount of homework, but that is not bad for someone who needs repitition to learn something.

I was apprehensive at first attending this class, but after attending every class of the semester, it became clear you earn your grade this class. He tries to help you as much as he can but you have to actually try and do homework and study. This is not an easy A class but if you try, you will learn and do well. Just put effort into the class

I just got done with math N60 summer class and I truly can say Professor Nance was really good, his technique on teaching was easy to follow. I'm filling like I improved my math skills 100% and I'm ready for my 80 class. Overall, great professor!

Professor Nance expects you to work. The previous student is right he does not teach formulas or expects you to memorize formulas. He helps you understand the formula and how it works. He tries to help you understand what you are doing. I finally understand Trig by the way he taught it to us.

I thought Statistics was a math class. It is really about reading and studying the material. This is a hard class it requires a lot of work and studying. Do not get behind or you are toast. Nance really cares about his students. I went to see him several times and he truly wanted me to pass his class. I got lots of help during his office hours.

I did not have math for a long time so this class was a lot of work for me. But his style of teaching really helped me. His tests were mostly homework problems so do the homework.

Not for slackers! But if you are a dedicated and hard working student, take the class. Professor Nance is awesome so long as your willing to put in the effort that the course requires. I recommend him :)

Dedicated teacher! Explains precalculus to prepare students for advanced courses in calculus. I returned to school after being away for 10 years. Easy to understand and motivated me to continue my education. His passion for math is evident. Goes over homework and he is readily available for extra help during office hours and after office hours.

I have had many math teachers and not once have I loved a teacher so much. I was shocked to see his rating.I received the highest grade in his class and I think its because I just get him. I almost failed my other math classes but after him its like I get everything. He made absolute sense and homework was minimum. I aced every test. He's funny too
