He has a slight accent bc he is from Russia I think. Be prepare for notes !!! HE will go through every possible question you have until you understand it. He test were easy and gave extra credit for doing homework. He was kinda funny too. TAKE HIM
He is the coolest one he makes you laught out going fun!!!! Nice professor!! A good teacher!!!
He has made math really easy for me! My last teacher was going to fail me. But this teacher has extra credit and takes your top tests to give you your final grade. If you need to take Pre Alg. take him!!!
He goes very, very fast in class. He has a fairly heavy accent too, so pay close attention. He stinks of cigarretes and will sometimes meet with students outside class where HE SMOKES INCESSANTLY. Not a bad professor. Many notes, fair tests, though not easy. Not mean.
Very Easy teacher, if anybody want to pass they should take him.

He help you to pass the class not fail. If I had to take another math class it would be with Prof. Sabau. very good professor!!!
He is very easy and gives out extra credit alot, it is almost impossible to not pass his class. except for the fact of the the deaprtamental final ./
Although he had an accent, he compensated you by taking the time and explain anything . Yes he smoked, but that has nothing to do with us, is what we call personal. I passed the class with an A(104%). Tests where easy, ofcourse if you study, also gives extra credit and each is added to the tests
this romanian genius is absolutely the best. clear writing and speech. i think he lowered himself a lot to teach this class. he is brilliant. his favorite phrase is "dat is a easy stuff". everyone in our class really learns a lot and he has a great sense of humor. the girls in the class think he's hot. gives out extra points, easy to pass.
I took his computer course class, super easy. he explains everything very well and as long as you did the work on your own time you got atleast a "B." he also gives a lot of extra credit!
Funny guy!
This guy is awesome. I suck at math but he makes it so easy for you and gives you tons of opportunties to get extra credit and extra points on tests. What can I say? He's great
although he's a nice person, he needs to know how to teach. His class is very easy but at the same time it should be more challenging. He doesn't explain himself clearly that makes it difficult for us to pay attention. HE NEEDS TO STOP REPEATING HIMSELF EVERY TWO WORDS HE SAYS!!! I still think he's a nice dude.
Love this man ! I wish I had him the 1st time i took this class. Makes Math for us dummies very easy. . .and the computer course is very helpful. It's like you have 2 teachers in 1 class ! DEFINITELY TAKE THIS CLASS IF U AREN'T GREAT IN MATH !

Mr. Sabau is a cool professor, he explains algebra in a way no other teacher can. Unlike other algebra professors he spends allot of time on the board to make sure you understand. And volunteers to help you in lab, I highly recomend him.
good prof. speaks in a low voice, is helpful but you have to hunt him down to get it. kinda difficult having a computer in front of u and not go on the internet lol

He is very easy but if u want to actually learn something and pass the EXIT exam DO NOT TAKE HIM!!!!!!!!
Very poor teaching methods, does not care if the students learn or not.
HOT ROMANIAN! I FAILED B/C I DIDN'T STUDY.
DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS! very unclear and uncaring! hard to understand accent. if u struggle with math i highy suggest not taking his class, he breezes through even if no one understands material.
FIRST OF ALL HE IS NOT HOT. SECOND DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS IF YOU HAVE BEEN OUT OF SCHOOL FOR A FEW YEARS AND IF MATH IS NOT YOUR BEST SUBJECT. HE TALKS SO LOW...... AND EVEN THOUGH I PASSED WITH A C BECAUSE OF THE EXTRA CREDIT ASSIGNMENTS IF IT WASN'T FOR THAT I WOULD OF FAILED. BEWARE OF HIS CLASS HE IS NICE BUT NO CLARITY.
he's easy if you pay attention. give you a practice test to take home a week before the test that has similar questions to the actual test. quizzes are online and at the end he chooses the best 10 grades and makes that a test grade. 6 or 7 tests in total, two are take home at the end of the semester.
esti cel mai tare profesor de mate din lazar astept sms.................
THIS PROFESSOR IS REALLY EASY... HE GIVES YOU 20 POINTS ON EACH TEST IF YOU DO THE HOMEWORK AND ATTEND TO THE CLASS. HE ALSO DROPS THE LOWEST TEST GRADE BUT YOU HAVE TO PASS THE FINAL WITH A 60
greates math teacger ever don't care about attendance just do the test and the online quizes and you are fine
lots of extra credit. if you don't take advantage that's your fault. do not miss classes though, he does cover alot of material, usually a section, per class. i am in no way a math whiz, and i was able to ace this class.
grades fair, gives extra credit
This professor was really great. I haven't had math in 10 years and was awful at it and I got an A in his class. He gives extra credit for homework-do it all and get extra points towards exams. He speaks REALLY low so try to sit up front. Sometimes he doesn't understand you but he was super nice!
eXCELLENT TEACHER.HE DOESNT BOTHER AT ALL.HIS EXPLANATIONS ARE OK AND ITS EASY TO PASS WITH A HIS CLASS,HIGLY RECOMMENDED
Prof.Sabau is an excellent teacher, very clear, easy to understand,and teaches Math with a good sense of humor. He keeps the class interested. I definitely recommend him, he is GREAT!!!

the guy is extremely shy and quiet. lab is not mandatory but if you complete it you get a letter grade up. not the most easy person to comfront for help.
i really like this teacher.i learn a lot of things in his class.you have to talk to him and he helps you on anything.if you don't understand go to the lab and he helps
This professor is really good at teacher math, i was always nervous when it comes to doing math but after attending his class he let math seems like 123...This is my first time ever passing a math test with an A. I highly recommend him. He is very helpful and easy to talk to.
AWESOME teacher! knows what he's talking about always willing to help no matter what! Do the labs because it will payoff in the end! I wish I could take only him for Math for the rest of my life!
he is great!
Very good teacher, helps you with your grade through extra points on your homworks... and if you pass all your quiz and test he'll give you the 24hrs you need for lab... i'm taking him again for next mat class...
I love this prof. HE is extremely good at explaining material. LAID BACK. Attendance not necessary. BUt if you have perfect attendance you drop ur 2 lowest grades. (not necessary) HW not necessary but "recommended" EASY AS HELL! im taking him again! highly recommend to anyone!
He is the best!!! VERY VERY EASY he's not fussy with attendance but if you go to every class for the semester he'll drop 2 of your lowest grades..NO LAB HOURS but get the labs done it helps put you up a letter grade..gives 10 extra credit points on test for being present on that day & 10 extra points for homework..I would definetly recommend him!!!
So helpful best math teacher i have ever had!! hated math and was my 3rd attempt and I passed with an A. Iam taking him again for mat0024!!!
Best math teacher ever if u want to pass just do ur homework and study te study guide b4 the test and u will do good on his testes. He gives u xtra credit whenever possible. I passed his class with an A. Oh yea attendance is not mandatory.
Professor Sabau is an excellent teacher. I highly recommend him if you are not great in Math. He is very clear in his teaching and gives lots of extra credit. His test are fairly easy. He goes the extra mile to help you if you need it.
Great math professor; he goes over problems step by step and will repeat himself until everyone understands. Very clear in handwritting. Don't miss class and do the extra credit homework for 20 extra points for each test. He gives a practice take home tests which are just like the tests but different numbers. I took 0012 & 0024 & got A's in both.
very helpful. a bit slow, but when he is finish you understands everything
THE BEST TEACHER I HAVE EVER HAD IN BROWARD COLLEGE. VERY LAID BACK, UNDERSTANDABLE, AND MAKES EVERYTHING VERY VERY EASY. HOMEWORK AND TEST ARE ONLY GRADED, VERY SMALL AMOUNT OF HOMEWORK - JUST PERFECT ENOUGH TO STUDY AND NOT GET OVERLOADED IN. THIS WAS MY THIRD TIME TAKING MAT0024 AND AFTER FAILING TWO TIMES BEFORE, I PASSED HIS CLASS WITH A 98%!
one of the best professor; goes over problems step by step and will repeat himself until everyone understands. Very clear in handwritting. Don't miss class and do the extra credit homework for 20 extra points for each test. He gives a practice take home tests which are just like the tests but different numbers. Got an A. been out of school since 98
hes a great teacher, he made math easy for me
This teacher is VERY UNCARING!!! He could care less if you understand the work or not! He does not ask if anyone needs help., and if it appears like you don't understand something, he looks at you like you have 2 heads. I took his class because of this site, but will advise anyone NOT TO TAKE HIS CLASS!!! Only 10 points for extra credit, not 20.
PROFESSOR SABAU IS VERY CLEAR AND ALWAYS OFFERS HELP. AS LONG AS YOU STUDY HIS NOTES, DO YOUR ONLINE QUIZZES, PASS THE TESTS, AND PASS THE EXIT EXAM YOU WILL BE FINE. HE GIVES YOU 15 POINTS IF YOU DO THE EXTRA CREDIT AND SHOW UP ON THE DAY OF THE TEST FOR THE ADDITIONAL 5 POINTS. ALL TOGETHER YOU CAN GET 20 POINTS TOWARD YOUR TEST!
One of the best Math teachers I ever had. Goes through the problems step by step and gives alot of extra credit. if you put in the effort it's easy to pass. I am good at math now and I use to suck at it.
loved this teacher. if you are someone like me that isnt great in math and like steps explained TAKE HIM. he is very thorough, very helpful, he makes the class impossible to fail with extensive amounts of extra credit, droppin test grades, and reviews that are exactly whats on test. took him summer3 missed classes and still left wit A. EASIEST A
HANDS DWN HE'S THE BEST AT WHAT HE DOES, IF MATH IS HARD FOR U TO UNDERSTAND AND U REALLY NEED THAT HELP, HE'S HONESTLY "DAT GUY" DOWNFALL: HE ASSIGNS HW & QUIZZES EVERY CLASS PERIOD...TESTS ARENT HARD IF U STUDY AND SCARIEST PART IS U HAVE TO PASS THE FINAL OR U FAIL...I PASSED WIT AN A AND I'D TAKE HIM AGAIN CUZ I HONESTLY LEARNED SOMETHING.
This Professor teaches as though he is reviewing the material for the class.I was told that I was possibly not ready for College when I failed to grasp his math concepts quickly. Because of this I have had a fear if taking futher math courses. unless you are sharp in math P-L-E-A-S-E don't take his class. !!BEWARE!!!
THIS TEACHER IS HARD TO UNDERSTAND-HIS ACCENT. HE JUST WANTS TO GO ON TO THE NEXT LESSON AND TELLS YOU TO COME TO THE LAB WHERE HE WORKS ON SATURDAY TO GET ADDITONAL HELP. WHY WOULD YOU GO TO HIM ON SATURDAY AND DON'T UNDERSTAND HIM M-R. HE IS NOT A MEAN TEACHER OR ANYTHING, I FOUND THAT HE DOES NOT HAVE THE TIME FOR PEOPLE LIKE ME WHO STRUGGLED WI
Listen if your looking for an easy down to earth Math0024 Class this is your guy.. He does have an accent but honestly its not that crazy... Easy work everything done on My Math Lab and he gives you enough time to he doesnt overdo it... I took this same class with another teacher and failed with a D i took Prof. Sabau and passed with an A.
I Have taken this class twice before with horrible teachers, but on my third try with sabau i passed it with an A! this prof. is amazing, super easy very helpful, does not make u feel dumb and loves to teach. does not use the book. mymathlab is so easy and fun, lets you try quiz n hw infinite times!! test are mult. choice. hes handing you the A.
PROFESSOR SABAU IS A GREAT TEACHER. MATHLAB IS USED INSTEAD OF A TEXT. HOMEWORK AND QUIZZES ARE GIVEN EVERY OTHER DAY SO YOU MUST KEEP UP.PROFESSOR OFFERS A GREAT AMOUNT OF EXTRA CREDIT, INCLUDING CREDIT FOR PERFECT ATTENDANCE. THERE WAS A TOTAL OF 5 TEST GIVEN.
The best math teacher I've ever had! He speaks softly with a very slight accent, so you need to listen attentively. Professor Sabau has a great sense of humor and gives lots of homework for your own good. If you want to pass all you have to do is listen and practice.
Easygoing, friendly guy. Definitely take a class with this guy. By far the best math professor in all of BCC. Doesn't care about tardiness, absences, texting in class. If you want to learn he'll help you. If you don't, he won't break your balls. He assigns reasonable amounts of homework, he drops quizzes, rounds up your test scores and doesn't care if you don't buy the book. His lectures are informative if you pay attention. He conveys info well. A halfhearted attempt will get you an A
this teacher is funny. if you not good at math then take him. he gives you more then enough opporunities to pass this course and his lectures are easy. take him he's really good
aweeeesome teacher. i wish he taught other courses so that i could pass all of them.i hate hate math ive failed 1024 3 times..this man did it for me amazin
EXCELLENT.... Easy A
OK I GUESS
THIS IS THE BEST MATH TEACHER I'VE TAKEN IN MY LIFE. JUST DO IS WORK AND YOU GET AN EASY A OR B. I HATE MATH BUT WITH THIS TEACHER I GET TO LOVE IT.I TOOK HIM FOR MAT0012 AND MAT0024 AND GOT AN A. THE BEST TEACHER IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the best teacher? i dont know about all that now. I took him for the 6 week summer A based on these reviews. he doesnt use the book, but he uses math lab. its alot of work but just dont procrasinate.I hate math but he made things easy to understand. Had an A in the HW and B on the tests but failed the class. retested and im out of prep. its up to u
He does have an accent, but it doesnt interfer with understanding. He goes over and writes out every type of question on hw/quizes/tests in class without short cuts. Mostly uses online HW & Quizes, but tests are in class. He gives you extra credit, drops lowest grade, and gives seconds chances on quizes.
great teacher. one of the best. very easy class to understand. no labs. no books. we only used mathxl.com it is better to buy the login key through mathxl, if not the book store will charge u almost double.
Excellent class and instructor! Very cool guy, He's laid back and chill. There wasn't any textbook used, only MathXL. It has an online textbook included, but was unnecessary because the online homework he gives teaches everything 100%. There is a huge room for a student to improve his/her grade in this class, I wish every class was like this.
GREAT PROFESSOR! Am not good at math at all but be made me felt like I was a math genius. he does not used a book. All his assignments are on MATHXL. Lots of work but very easy to understand. Please do not procrastinate and wait for the last minute to do assignment. OVERALL I received an "B". I am going to take him again for MATH0028
He is really laid back all you need is Math XL no text book at all. All the homework is online which is nice. Just do NOT wait until the last day to do the work, it will kill you, its not hard its just a lot to sit and do at once.
He is awesome!! Doesnt check attendance. There is a hw assignment and a quiz to go along with the hw every single class but you can take them unlimited amounts of times and they are not due until the very last class meeting. 1 or 2 take home tests and very clear on explaining what needs to be done. I would take him again and again if i needed to!!!
After years of struggling with math I finally get it!!! This is a non plus ultra teacher. If you do not understand his classes then go work at cleaning floors! He turns you into an genius! I will take ALL of my math classes with this guy until I finish school. His method of teaching is unbeatable! You wil understand and like math!
GREAT PROFESSOR!!!! He is very clear and very helpful at all times. He is always available to help you out side the class room or at the lab. He is very good teacher!
HE IS TERRIFIC & GENUWINE TEACHER. HE CARES ABOUT HIS STUDENTS. HE IS LAID BACK BUT IF YOU DISRESPECT HIM DURING CLASS HE WILL KIND OF GIVE YOU A COLD SHOULDER. OTHER THAN THAT ALL ASSIGNMENTS ON COMP BASED PROGRAM. DEFF TAKE HIM!!! GIVES YOU EXTRA CREDIT WORK TO ADD TOWARDS TEST
He is one of the best professors I've ever taken... This was my third time taking this course and I was pretty much fed up.... But because his teaching method was so different and simple from the others, I passed! I'll recommend him to anyone!
I failed this course twice. This prof was the best ive had. Yes, you had to keep on top of the material and do all the online HW and quizzes but if you did your part its an easy A...definitely recommend
Professor Sabau was very thorough and patient, he is very smart and knows his numbers but does not belittle anyone or make you feel like you should already know the material just because it comes easy to him. I have been putting off coming back to college due to my fear of math so I would 100% recommend this professor!
Easiest class ive ever taken, it is impossible not to get an A in this class
The professor is super calm, and always check our exercises so he can help us in case we get stuck in something. He doesn't require a book, just the online MathXL. He speaks slowly and very softly, so I suggest you seat closer to him. He is a super helpful teacher. I am definitely taking him for my next math class.
GREAT Teacher, excellent using new modern teaching techniques for students to learn!
HE IS VERY HELPFUL!! HE KNOWS HIS STUFF..
BEST MATH TEACHER EVER! I PUT 5 AS EASY BECAUSE HE MAKES YOU UNDERSTAND IT EVEN IF YOU'VE NEVER SEEN MATH BEFORE. THIS WAS MY THIRD TIME TAKING THIS COURSE AND I CAME OUT GETTING AN A AND TRUST ME I NEVER THOUGHT THAT WAS POSSIBLE. HE TALKS LOW, BUT MAN DOES THIS PROFESSOR KNOW HOW TO TEACH AND HE SURE KNOWS HOW TO GET YOU TO UNDERSTAND IT.
Amazing teacher taking again
The best teacher!! Very helpful. Took his MAT108 and MaT1028 and got A's taking him again for MAT 1033. Very helpful.
This Teacher is a AWSOME Professor I have takin him for all of my math classes.I highly recommond his class.They are very easy as long as you show up and take notes.Everything else is on mathxl.You have 5 test and two are take home.Then he drops your lowest test grade you get extra credit for every test.If you dont take him for math your crazy.
Awsome Professor. Take Him Easy A.
This professor is the best. Very helpful.... Must take him!!!!
One of the best math teachers that I have had at BC. He is helpful and explains things very clearly
HORRIBLE PROFESSOR. NO DEDICATION TO THE STUDENT. JUST PERFORMS THE MATH PROBLEM. HE DOESNT TRULY EXPLAIN HOW TO DO THE PROBLEM. VERY DISMISSIVE OF QUESTIONS STUDENTS ASK. IF YOU CAN LEARN MATH ON YOUR OWN, THIS CLASS WILL WORK. IF NOT, DO NOT TAKE HIM.
He is a great professor, very helpful and understanding. If you don't understand he is willing to help his student. I highly recommend him.
He is a great professor, very helpful and understanding. Highly recommend him.
This professor is the total opposite if what I said in his reviews. He does not care to help you, an he answers you indirectly. If you want a professor who cares, stay back!
WORST PROFESSOR I HAVE HAD THUS FAR. I picked him since he had amazing reviews on here. I learned zero from him. I don't think he understands English. He will yes you to death just to get you to go away. You have to buy MATHXL, do not assume since it says "no textbook required" you are getting off easy. MATHXL can cost up to $90+. RUN!!!!
Really suprised on the the ratings given for this teacher. He is a nice guy but does not teach well. He doesn't use the full amount of time needed for the course and he only writes problems on the board and solves it. There is no clear explanation which is confusing for someone that hasn't taken math for awhile. I shouldn't have to go to Youtube !
He has a bit of an accent, but this man is extremely patient. He goes in depth on every topic and explains them extremely well. He answers all of your questions, as long as you make an effort to do the work yourself. I would definitely recommend this professor to anyone looking to take a math class in college.
He is a great professor, very helpful and understanding. Highly recommend him. If you don't understand he is willing to help his student. I highly
This teacher is great. I have no idea why others say he is the worst. He shows you step by step (sometimes too slow) how to solve all the problems. I had 2 questions for him and he showed me exactly how to do the problems. 2 wks left and currently have a 107 average. I haven't taken algebra in 30 yrs! Easy A.
One of the best professors at broward college. He is extremely thorough and gives students a chance to receive 10 points extra credit for each and every exam. He is very helpful and I'm so glad I picked his class. Truly enjoyed it
First time ever rating a professor and I just have to say he is one of the best professors at broward college. He is extremely thorough and gives students a chance to receive 10 points extra credit for each and every exam. He is very helpful and I'm so glad I picked this class. Honestly enjoyed it
This is my 2nd time taking Professor Sabau. You would be a fool not to take him. He wants to make sure you understand, gives great notes, no textbook requirement and MATHXL only hammers the information in more. He offers extra credit on exams and he doesn't do mid-terms or a cumulative final exam. Drops the lowest exam, and lowest 18 quizzes too.
BEST PROF EVER!! Highly recommend him!!!!!!
EASY A but boring if you take the 3 hour course!
Great Professor. All tests are multiple choice and his reviews are almost the same as the actual test. gives 10 points extra credit if you do the online test review which will drastically help you in your test grade. He is a little boring but besides that a very good professor. Make sure you do all your hw and quizzes online and you will pass!
Good Professor, very helpful. I have had 2 of his classes, and will have him for Trig in August.
I will not say that this class was an easy A, because I had to study very hard for it. I took him for the 2hr and 45 min session. Very rarely did we have to stay the whole time. We just skipped breaks and get out earlier. He gives students ways of earning extra credits 5-10 point and drops lowest test grade. He uses an online software for quiz n HW
I took his 3 hour course every Friday and it was quite boring because his voice is kind of monotone. He is very nice, drops the lowest test, offers extra credit on tests and drops 5 lower quizzes online. Unlimited attempts on mathxl for hw and tests, not an easy A, but I earned it.. and I rarely study!
Great professor – highly recommended! Tests are multiple choice. He gives a review for each test that is just like the actual test plus you can earn 5-10 ex-credit pts on each. He drops the lowest test score, even if it’s the final. If you do all the online homework, quizzes and extra credit you will absolutely pass his class.
I've had the pleasure of having Professor Sabau, 3 times now. While any college level math is challenging, he pushes you to do your best and he wants ALL of his students to successful in his class. Yes he offers all the mentioned extra credit and 1 dropped exam grade, but what's different is that he really cares about his students. He's the best.
I like his method and way of teaching, even though it's a hard course he gives a lot of help with the extra credit and quizzes. He helps the students by teaching how to use the calculator by learning the formulas. He gives plenty of opportunity to make up on any tests that you miss.
Truly cares about the student's success. Definitely recommend. He has somewhat of a serious persona but when he makes a joke or laughs, it's hilarious. No textbook needed, only subscription to MATHXL. Great-hearted guy.
everything is done in MATHXl, gives extra credit for test, in class lectures goes fast, teaches multiple section in one class. MUST take GOOD notes.
Take this professor! Loved his class. If you study, you will pass! He teaches slowly and understandably. That's a must when taking a math course. I highly recommend him!
This was my 1st math class taken in college and I was pretty nervous, but this professor helped me out so much. Not only is he a great teacher, but he is funny in his lectures too. He gives 5 exams and you are able to drop the lowest exam and there are 20 quizzes and he drops the last 5 quizzes. The extra credit gives 10pts on top of exam score.
He really know his stuffs, i would take him again very clear . I was horrble at math until i take him you really learn with him. he is very pacific and he is a lacoste lover lol. 5 Test and he drop the lowest score you would be good. i pass his class with a B
This guy is more then helpful and foes above and beyond! Excellent professior!!
Make sure you take his class, he makes it possible to get an easy A or B. Just ask for help, and he will make sure you understand. Get on his good side, and you will have fun. He discusses the homework in class to the point of exhaustion, and the tests can be very difficult... but if you study, you will have no problems.
Great professor! There is homework, but it is manageable. Drops the lowest exam grade! He gives reviews for exams- do them. They are identical to the exams! Allows you to make up exams. He emails you the reviews. Attendance is not enforced. I would take this professor again!
One of my favorite professors. Would take again. Great Math teacher. If you study and do the homework you will pass.
OMG he is AMAZING! I have never written a review on a teacher before but I had to. I needed to pass this class to graduate Dec. of 2015. I was struggling so hard & when I say he did EVERYTHING possible to help me pass I mean it. This man stayed almost every night with me after class helping me & explaining to me the HW and quizzes. He truly cares!
TAKE HIM! If you're looking for a professor that breaks down the content to you in a way that you can understand, then he is perfect for you. The labs may feel overwhelming, but do them and the review. The reviews are your exam. Also, he is always there if you need any help at all.. Just reach out. I would recommend to anyone who takes Statistics.
GOOD PROFESSOR . ABIT UNCLEAR AT TIMES . IF YOU LIKE MATH XL THEN YOU WILL BE FINE .
I am NOT A MATH person what so ever. I have dropped every math class I have ever been in except his. There is hope for me after all!! Seriously though I love this guy! He is fabulous. I am currently in intermediate algebra and I just registered for Mac1105 with him next semester. I will not let him get away.
Really nice guy and does plenty of examples. His test reviews are helpful but do not cover all topics on the test. The test review is much easier than the actual test. His tests are very short so if you get a few wrong your grade quickly drops. However,you can earn up to 10 points extra credit on each test.
If you hate math TAKE HIM. He breaks down the problems so that you understand. He is a very good math professor.
So happy I took professor Sabau, math is not easy for me, but with all of his examples I passed all of the exams. He takes the time to explain everything, doesn't go fast, he stays at students pace. If you are not good with math, than this is the professor to take!
If you aren't good in math and don't have time to study then i wouldn't suggest you taking the 6 wks class, you'll get overwhelmed. It's alot of homework and quiz to complete in mystatlab. He is a good professor though.
Really good professor. His pacing makes it very easy to understand the concepts he is teaching. He is very willing to answer all the questions you need to understand the problems. Lots of extra credit. If you've struggled with Business Calc take him!
This is by far, the best math teacher at broward College. Took him twice and both times was amazing. Got an A in both class. Very helpful teacher. If you want an A, take him
I'm currently taking Business Calculus and he's a great professor. He makes the concepts very clear and easy to understand. He goes over the calculations slowly step by step. He's always willing to help you with your questions. I would definitely recommend him to anyone.
Mr Sabau is a great teacher, he is caring as long as he sees your effort. Homework is online and exams in class. Easy exams and like i said he will help you if you want help. Math is my worst subject and he made it very easy and comfortable for me! take him!
GREAT PROFESSOR !
Awesome Professor very detail and give notes for everything. I took MF1106 with him and pass with a "A" and I absolutely hate math.
Class was easy. Do the homework and quizzes there is no way you will fail the test. He gives extra credit. Would definitely recommend.
Easy teacher, drops lowest test and quiz grade. Lots of extra credit, can redo quizzes until you get the grade you desire!
Let me start off by saying, I HATE MATH. Prof. Sabau is THE BEST prof. at BC! He does have an accent but his lectures are easy to understand. Posts the lecture powerpoints for review. Lots of homework on mymathlab, use it as practice. Drops your worse grade and gives you LOTS of extra credit opportunities. Taking him for STA2023 in the summer!
Professor Sabau is an excellent Professor! I would take him again and again. He gives great lectors. Shows how to work the problems with the formula and the calculator. Very patient. Gives lots of EXTRA CREDIT.
Good professor. Very nice and knows his stuff. Lots of homework and lots of extra credit. Whether you're good at math/stat or not you shouldn't get lower than a B. If you get lower you simply didn't try hard enough.
Never taken statistics before? Then Professor Sabau is the professor for you! He gives tons of extra credits and the entire class is taught through a calculator so you don't have to worry about memorizing any complex formulas. I'm not the best at math and I got an A. Took the blended class.
Really nice teacher, easy class and extra credit (can earn 10 more points in each exam)
Professor Sabau is a great professor. He has a good pesonality, as well as he responds to questions during class or through email. Just do the quizzes and test with the extra credit and you are good. I passed with an A, but you MUST buy the mystatlab access code, no textbook.
I cant say enough about Professor Sanau, he is amazing! Loves what he does and cares about each and every one of his students success. What a wonderful experience! Broward College needs more professors like him!
The Professor is amazing, he is kind and explains really well the material, make sure you study the REVIEWS before the exams, no textbook is needed just the math lab code and the calculator, he gives extra credit but you have to take the exams at the library, make sure you make an appointment for the exams !
AMAZING PROFESSOR. His lectures are easy to understand and he's very patient and goes over the problem again if you're having a hard time understanding.
Great professor!! Summer 6 weeks. Plenty of extra credit. Homework and quizzes on my math lab. Drops lowest 5 quizzes. 5 exams, drops the lowest. If you have an average of 90% or more after exam 4, you can skip the final. Everything is through the calculator. All exams taking at testing center on campus. Notes and create a journal for X credit
He is really quiet, harsh personality. Honestly as a professor, his social skills are too awkward to make him approachable. His test were much more hard than the study guides. I regret taking him and wouldn't recommend anyone to him.
Professor Sabau is Very Caring, I took him for liberal arts over the summer. Great Lectures, He gives extra credit, and the homework counts toward your grade, You have to buy the code for Mymathlab so you dont need the book, If the class ask he will make the test online test. I got and 87 in the class without taking the final.
I dont understand, i pass my test and final exam and did all the extra credits and and my homeworks got As and Bs because of not passing 1 test i fail the whole class. He wouldnt even try to understand and straight up gave me whatever he wanted.
This professor is hands down a very mellow person and it honestly makes the course easier to understand in my opinion. He takes his time and gives different ways to solve problems. He also provides extra credit opportunities and the homework does count as a grade. His exams are in class as well as online and it definitely helps to participate!
Prof. Sabau was hands down the best teacher, he would remove questions from the HW on Pearson and give 18 questions MAX. Extra credit prior to taking exams with unlimited tries to get 100%. His tests are taken in the math lab. Extra credit at the end of the semester for taking notes. Reviews HW in class. Easy A.
He gives you so many opportunities for extra credit & drops 5 lowest quiz grades & 1 exam grade- as long as you do your work, youre guaranteed an A. Professor Sabau is really nice & wants his students to do well. I would definitely take him again.
Most of the work is done on MyMathLab. He does the homework in class after the lecture, to show specific problems and has you write it down as examples. I didn't go to class much and learned most of it from MyMathLab. His tests were short and pretty easy. He also allowed for us to complete any work after due date, at the end of semester on Mathlab
Professor Sabau is the best. He understand and he is a great listener. I truly enjoyed his class. I took him for intermediate algebra and statistics. Im planning on taking him for college algebra. After not being in school for 20 years, I was very scared to take math. I was truly blessed to be in Professor Sabau's class. Easy A.
Took Prof. Sabau for Fundamentals of Math. Reasoning and his class was a breeze. Attendance is not mandatory but if you skip, you may miss out on a lot of important info. He gives a lot of extra credit opportunities .
I think he is good professor but I didnt like the way he taught statistics compared to my sta1001 professor but overall you will learn. He will drop your 5 lowest quizzes and gives you a lot of extra credit. Its really important to know the formulas because you won't be allowed to bring anything in the testing center except your calculator.
I dont usually do this but this guy is just too soft spoken to be a professor. You can hardly hear anything he says.
This man is the best! His class was an easy A. Had to buy mystat lab where hw quizzes and test were taken. Study a little for his test and you will be fine. Everything is solved on a calculator.
I really enjoyed taking Prof Sabau. Hes caring and understanding. Takes his time explaining, and funny at times. I genuinely enjoyed taking him and I highly recommend him, I had a blended class but he really is a great teacher you wont be disappointed, he gives a lot of extra credit and helps you with deadlines.
Professor Sabau is great and made Stats easy. I suck with Math and our class was impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic which switched our on-campus learning experience online in the middle of the semester. The transition was seamless and I passed with an A. I highly recommend Professor Sabau.
This class is an easy A. Professor Sabau does everything he can to make sure you understand and get a good grade. All you have to do for this class is show up, pay attention, and do the homework assignments. I would so take this class again. He made Stats easy. He is a very caring and understanding professor.
Math is not by best subject at all. However he is THE best teacher that i have taken in years. He allows you to understand and explains so that you can move forward. Such an amazing professor, especially during a pandemic. Lots of extra credit. If you fail its because you didn't try.
Math is never my subject but he makes it completely understandable. Huge plus his lectures are all recorded so you can always go back.
He is an amazinggggggggggggg professor! math is NOT my subject however he made it easy for me... he will go over problems with you and will go over it until you get it. He offers a lot of extra credit.. there is a lot of homework but its manageable. TAKE HIM YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT! seriously lol do it...
Such an amazing professor! I loved his class. If you do the work you will pass. The N-I-C-E-S-T PROFESSOR
TAKE HIM!!! YOU WILL NOT REGRET YOUR DECISION. I HATE Math and was never good at at. I was dreading to take Stats and was so scared. Do your assignments and HW and you will pass! He answers your emails on time and he even will answer txts. You even get extra credit for each test! If you fail, that is on you. He really cares about his students!
Professor Sabau is great, he explains everything and gives you examples of how to do the homework, so you will understand how to do it on your own. He responds to you in time and assists you with anything that you do not understands. Great Professor takes him if you want to understand Math better.
PROFESSOR SABAU WAS OUTSTANDINGLY AMAZING. I HONESTLY HATE MATH BECAUSE I ALWAYS HAD A HARD TIME GETTING IT. BUT TAKING 2 OF MY MATH CLASSES WITH HIM WAS GREAT AND I PASSED WITH FLYING COLORS WHEN I THOUGHT I COULDNT. HE TRULY CARES AND WANTS YOU TO PASS FOR SURE. 10 OUT OF 10
Please take this class for your sake and for mine. He is literally the best professor for statistics. I promise you do not want to miss out on this class. He drops the lowest exam (there are 5) and the lowest 5 quizzes (there are about 20) literally the easiest going class
Take Professor Sabau. Hes really nice, great professor, and he really wants his students to pass his class. I recommend to take a short session for his math courses because it will be all worth it and his assignments are very easy. Hes also gives students extra credits.
One of the best professors Ive had so far!!!! Hes extremely understanding and explains the materials super well. As someone who sucks at math... I passed the course with an A. Sign up for his class you wont regret it!
He is a very good professor he goes step by step with every lesson and makes sure everyone understands. the class average was very high near 100%. trust me you wont regret taking his class
HE IS HONESTLY THE MOST AMAZING PROFESSOR IN BROWARD COLLEGE! HE HONESTLY CARES ABOUT HIS STUDENTS, GIVES YOU EXTRA TIME IF YOU MISS A DEADLINE, ALWAYS LET HIM KNOW AND HELL BE ABLE TO HELP YOU. YOU WONT REGRET TAKING HIS CLASS.
This professor right here is a GEM. I SUCK at math and he made it super easy. Most caring professor ever, he made sure everyone understood the work, and made sure everyone passed with a good grade. Please take him you will learn and pass.
This professor really cares about your learning and understanding. He will go over 1 subject until everyone understands. The best math professor I've ever had.
This professor cares about you. He will spend an entire class section on a subject until everyone understands it. My only problem is that his thick accent makes it hard to understand him, but he is always helpful. Most of the time he ends class very early.
Professor Sabau is AMAZING. Going into stats I was so nervous because Im horrible at math but he makes it so easy to understand. If youre able to take him do it!
Professor Sabau it's an AMAZING professor... take his class, you won't regret it!! a lot of extra credits opportunities. Do not leave homework until the end because it's a lot of work in the lab... Definitely, we need more professor like him!!
MR Sabau is the best teacher ever , one of the best teacher I've ever known.
This class is an easy A. You will pass as long as you do all the homework and practice the review guide! He uses the same questions from the homework/ review.
I previously withdrew from Statistics with another professor and was afraid to take it again, but Sabau was ah-mazing and made the class super easy! Attending class is a must, and make sure to do all your assignments. He gives numerous attempts on exams and teaches "elementary" style which may be annoying to some but was a blessing to me.
Im horrible at math but his class was a breeze. He teaches well and offers a lot of extra credit and other ways to help with your grade. Im taking him again for stats and hoping I have the same experience!
Professor Sabau explains the topics very well and step by step. He would also help you and review with you as many times as you want any topic that you did not understand. He made math feels very easy and is very patient and understanding.
Ms.r Sabau is without a doubt the best professor I've taken. His class was easy and he helps you understand the material until you get it. We had to do the assignments on Pearson and tests every 2 weeks but they were easy and he did the homework with us in class all the time. He cares about his students and makes class easy and comfortable.
Honestly I've never been good at math, this was by far the easiest math I've ever done in my life, I personally love finances so statistics is a must, but looking past that Professor Sabu managed to teach me in a way I could truly understand how to plug in the number I guess you could say. I will mention you'll need a ti 83 or 84 in order to pass(:
Take his class you won't regret, promise you
the best professor in broward college
I honestly was so scared of taking stats because I thought it was going to be hard, but Professor Sabu made it hands down easiest math class, nothing to stress about and made the lessons he taught sooo simple and not too much homework, he's such a sweetheart. All you basically need for this class is a ti83 or 84.
If You want to Pass Statistics TAKE HIS CLASS - He teach to understand - he responds quickly to emails and the work is so easy because he teach you how to do it step by step. Theres only 4 test and 1 final which is super easy
I was terrified to take stats but this professor is one of my best teachers. 5 exams, 1 is dropped. Hw and quizzes for each section, which was all due at the end of the semester with no penalty. Extra credit was offered for every single exam. Study by practicing the reviews because they're almost identical to the exam. Make sure you get the TI-84!
The best statistics teacher I have taken. He explains the material really well. Gonna need a TI 84 calculator but amazing and easy class
Try to attend every class because if you miss one you might get lost. Overall the class was very easy as most of the work is done on the calculator. Very sweet though and he is not a tough grader at all.
All homework is done using MyMathLab. Lectures are very helpful. Pay attention and you will do great in this class! Would definitely take this professor again!
I was really happy to take this class. He had a PowerPoint ready for us for every lesson, went over the homework, and lectured at a pace that everyone understood. I hated Stats but I learned to love it because of him. He also has extra credit for us that went towards our exams so it is literally impossible to fail his class.
I always heard statistic is difficult subject likely it wasn't for me. The best Statistic professor. You won't regret it.
He is by far the best math teacher I've ever gotten. He prepares for each lectures with power points and goes in depth with definition and terms. Offers extra credit for the exams. You will take the exams in the testing center but it is no hassle because everyone passes the exams, he is that good.
I took a fast paced course with this professor. Lectures were straight to the point and were based on the homework. HW, quizzes, and exams all have a 7 day window to complete. He drops the lowest exam grade at the end of the semester. Very flexible teacher and would definitely recommend!
Professor Sabau is the best. He makes the class simple and is clear on the tests. There is a lot of homework but it's simple. The tests are like practice exams and he gives plenty of extra credit. He does care about his students and is trying to make the class aware of it. Just listen to him, go to class and get the calculator he tells you.
I took STA2023 over the summer. The class was a month long, and all of the assignments and quizzes were online. 80% of your grade is tests and 20% of your grade is quizzes. IT'S NOTHING TO STRESS ABOUT though - you can repeat quizzes as many times as you need, and the tests (taken at the testing center) have very similar questions to the quizzes.
Professor Sabau and the couse were really easy, I took the class fast paced and we had a test like every week but they were about to topics so it was really easy to get along. I totally recommend this professor if you are doubting
Prof. Sabau is the best. If you need Statistics (or any other math class he's teaching) and you're worried about it, take him. HIs lectures are short and clear, he explains the material well, he is light on the mathlab homework(!!!) and he gives test reviews that make his classes impossible to fail. Take him.
Professor Sabau makes the course so easy. He does not waste time on explanations that are not necessary. He teaches step by step the exercises and is always looking for a way to make it easier for the students. I had 3 classes with him and got an A on all three. If you do the homework you get an easy A.
Professor Sabau is great. I took this class twice before and had no clue what I was doing. He made the lectures so easy and straight to the point. I never understood statistics more before this professor. He helped us do our homework and the tests were very easy. Simple and straight to the point. I would highly recommend taking this professor.
He was one of the best professors I've ever had for Math. He truly makes it hard to fail, the hw and quizzes are easy and he teaches it like its elementary. If you need to get this credit quick and easy I definitely recommend taking him especially for a fast pace course. He drops one Exam grade, if you do good on the 4 exams you can drop the final.
Professor Sabau's class was interesting even for me as not a fan of math. He explains clearly, with examples, and is always eager to help you succeed. This was a blended course, so you had to attend the testing center.
Professor Sabau takes subject matter than can be confusing and breaks it down into easy to understand steps. If you don't understand something, he will explain it again until you do.HW and quizzes are 20% of your grade. The other 80% is 5 exams, drop the lowest grade. He really wants his students to succeed and will give extra credit on the exams.
This is the only class I have taken in which I learned math. The professor cares about students learning the material, and he provides many exercises to practice and prepare for the exams. If you do the homework, you will pass his class as long as you put in the effort.
I am so math illiterate and this is the only professor who has helped me understand. His class is incredibly easy, HW and take home quiz on mylab, extra credit up to +10 points on final tests and graded take home reviews. EASIEST easiest easiest class yall please take him
Amazing Professor.
Professor Sabau makes this stats class a breeze. Engaging lectures, easy homework and tests, and no need for the textbook. Unstuckstudy was a game-changer too - super helpful for test prep. Definitely take this class if you want a painless math credit.
Professor Sabau was amazing! I had not taken a math class in 4 years, but his lectures helped me pick right back up where I had left off. He cares deeply about his students and he takes the time to make sure you truly understand the lesson. The homework is directly related to the in class work.
I'd highly recommend taking his class. I took him the summer and he was my easiest class. He doesn't use the equations or the book. He teaches the math based on his own experience and it's brilliant. As long as you pay attention to his class and participate you'll easily ace his class. he's also quite funny making a math class fun to go to.
This professor doesnt put anything online if you're doing HW and in class he doesnt really teach but acts like its a review. So you have to REALLY learn from the WEBSITE. There is also HEAVY miscommunication! I asked how to access the assignments and no response. So if you miss one class, you're screwed! I do not recommend this professor at all!
Professor Sabau is the best, he makes the material very good for learning online, he cares about students and statistics became an easy topic teached by him.
All of the homework, quizzes and tests are on Pearson. Only the test are proctored, had to take them in the testing center (had a week window to complete). Very easy professor, material wasn't difficult, I wouldn't recommend missing a class since most material is solved by the calculator steps and no written formulas. Best math teach by far.
take this professor if you want to teach yourself the class or an inattentive professor. he doesnt really lecture, he just assigns mylab homework and does some equations on the whiteboard for about 20 minutes and then dismisses class. attendance somewhat mandatory. tests aren't too hard but a majority of your grade, so study. hes not super friendly
Best professor ever! I took both STA2023 and MAC2105 with him, and I loved both classes. He explains everything super clearly and is always willing to help if you don't understand something. You can totally reach out to him, and he'll make sure you get it. He's super nice, gives extra credit, and truly cares about his students.
Outstanding professor, I have had many classes with him now, and I can assure you he's one of the best. One thing you need to take into account is that the responsibility of the classes relies heavily on your responsibility, since you will need to complete your homework to get access to exams.
He would always be willing to help you in any possible way. He's also very respectful.
He was an amazing professor !
good professor in general teach very good and patient
Great Professor, enjoy every class!
The professor is really caring and patient.
Excellent professor, always clarifies all our doubts in the best way, and teaches very well.
great, brilliant, excellent, amazing, good, the best, unbelievable
Really caring and such all the classes taken with Professor Sabau were amazing and great!
He is good and very Patient
Very patient, open to questions and will help you understand the material if you ask for help. Very friendly.
He's a really patient and kind professor. I wound recommended him for math classes!
It was an amazing class because the teacher made it amazing, and I hope you guys choose him.
It was an amazing class because the teacher was amazing. I would highly recommend taking his class.
Professor Sabau is a good professor. He just goes over the homework in class and then you do it at home. Most of his exams have the exact questions from the homework which makes this course easy.
He is the best! I have always dreaded any math class and I am so glad to have picked this Professor! He is absolutely a gem and a phenomenal teacher. Please do not think about it and pick him. Definitely will take him for other math classes. His teaching makes math very understandable and asks if you have questions.
Hes a mid professor that makes his class not hard. You won't really learn much from him but he makes it easy to get an A. Be warn that he talks super softly so its really hard to hear him but he's not a bad professor, just meh.
LOVE! Do the work and the extra credit and you're good!
He was wonderful! He makes sure you understand and offers extra credit for every test. He teaches you the fastest and most efficient ways to solve problems. Truly the only way any professor should teach a math course.
Take him for an easy A. He teaches you the efficient way to do problems. The homework will prepare you for the test. If you have more math questions that go deeper, he definitely can answer them. BUT if you want to pursue a STEM degree, stay memorizing the unit circle. Don't be reliant on the cheat sheet and keep your brain sharp for Calc & beyond.
Professor Sabau is great! He is so nice and caring. Even though I HATE math, and am terrible at it, his class was very easy and enjoyable to me. He drops the lowest test grade and hives extra credit opportunities for each test! You won't regret taking him.
Honestly, STA2023 is much easier than MAC1105C. Once I started focusing, I passed the other three exams. He gets easily annoyed if you ask questions, so I had to teach myself pretty much everything. Don't rely too much on the professor, and definitely do the extra credit. The class isn't bad overall; just be disciplined and stay focused.
Professor Sabau is amazing before this semester. I took statistics with another teacher, and I withdrew because I didn't understand at all. On the other hand in this class it felt like I understood everything. His assignments aren't too much. They are just perfect. If I had to recommend a teacher it would for sure be him.
It is important to attend class since the professor explain the material. if you missing one session, it is hard to do the homework at home. great professor!!
Professor Sabau is probably one of the best professors I have taken. He truly cares for his students and their understanding of the material as well as them passing the class. He gives a lot of extra credit opportunities, so it is very hard to not pass the class. He is the best! I hope his pillow is always cold on both sides.
