Good teacher. Very patient, which is essential when teaching Math. He missed several sessions though, but he did have a replacement. He's laid back and cool, and will take time to answer questions, but you HAVE to ask them, otherwise he'll just keep going and by the time you gain the courage to ask, you'll be way behind.

I took Dan's class about 15 years ago. I had failed this class 2x before. He taught so clearly that I still remember just about everything. I had to take an intermediate Algebra class this year. I aced it without much effort due to the foundation that Mr. Loprieno built in me. Camp out for his classes. It is worth it.

Although attendance is not mandatory, it's good to go every class, because he gives out worksheets which count for part of your grade.

Disorganized on the board with sometimes undiscernable handwriting. Writes all over the board that it's hard to follow. If you don't have a basic understanding of Algebra, I wouldn't recommend this professor, as he assumes we all remember most what we learned back in high school math classes. Not always clear in his explanations. Nice guy though.

Not very tech savvy and sometimes would take a while to hear back from him. However, he did me a huge favor to let me into his class for late registration. He is understanding and caring, and respects his students by not belittling them. Since online, I never formally met him, but his class is an easy pass if you just do the homework.

Ask questions regardless of how dumb it is. Lectures are good. gives lots of homework tho but its worth it. Tests are easy as long you do the homework since the test questions are picked from the homework & he only wants the basics so you shouldn't see complex/long problems on your tests.I later learned this so don't doubt this because of my grade

Professor Loprieno is an amazing professor. He cares about his students and wants all of his students to be successful. He makes a difficult subject seem not that difficult. The notes from class, the homework and lectures are similar to the tests- do those and you're good. Such a great class and great professor! Take him you won't regret it.

He's basically just super solid and dependable. He wants everyone to pass and if you are confused and go to him, he will answer and explain whatever problem you're having. If you don't, then he just assumes that you understand his course. Very transparent, he's basically all business although you can have a cool conversation with him too.

He is a great professor and he's very understanding. The main downside is that he's really bad at responding to emails. If you need help, he will be willing to help you, but you may have to send him a few emails before he actually responds. Despite this I would take him again, I'd probably do in person instead of online though.

He was decent, just make sure to come to class everyday and follow along. He's nice, and he doesn't grade too hard on tests. Homework is online. He also drops your lowest test grade with the final. Also remember to pay attention and put in the work you should for a college level class.

All notes and lectures were on Blackboard. All homework, tests, and grades were on the website, Aleks. Didn't respond to emails, or would respond days later. Tests were timed, open-note, and mostly multiple-choice.

Good professor! His entire online class is on ALEKS and you just watch the lecture video and do the homework. Theres a test every 5-6 homeworks. Be prepared to do math...all the time. The whole semester is posted at once so you can work ahead if you would like. All the hw have unlimited attempts to get 100%. No makeups or redos once overdue.

Perfect for busy people, but not if you need frequent math help. Weekly:3-4 homework assignments. Monthly: 1 unit exam and a final. Exams aren't proctored,but you must submit written work at the end. Homework problems allow 99 retries if you get anything wrong, so you can easily score 10/10. Lowest 3 homework grades are dropped end of the semester.

I've always struggled with math and barely passed before. The way he teaches ensures you understand what you're learning about. Don't be afraid to ask him for help, he will sit there and help you even if it's a silly question. He's a caring man who got me to have a B+ average. Definitely would take again if asked in a heartbeat.

Very nice guy and always was willing to help. He was however 5-10 minutes late every single day (50 minute class btw). Goes extremely fast lecturing and on the white board and if you have ADHD like I do it's probably going to be pretty rough I'll tell you that. BUT he did have office hours every single day and was very helpful if you went in to ask

The videos he posted didn't correspond to the homework very much at all I found myself using the internet to help teach me instead. Exams weren't proctored but you needed to turn in work after. He's kinda 50/50 on emails I really needed him to answer me before the final to which he didn't but answered me all the other times. There's a lot of hw

He was a pretty funny professor and cared about the students. Make sure to ask questions in class he is willing to help anyone. Only 6 tests 5 unit, 1 final. MAKE SURE TO STUDY FOR TESTS, HE DOES NOT GIVE EXTRA CHANCES FOR TESTS. A lot of homework and will make you work for an A.

Horrible professor, with no replies to emails, and is also not helpful at all. I get a response from another professor in a matter of hours, but here I am waiting days for a reply and having to cancel summer plans cause of it. Professors are paid to respond and help students. Why are we paying this man?

His lectures were not helpful because he just does the problem without explaining. I ended up having to use YouTube to learn instead. Aleks takes off points for rounding wrong or if u don't have the exact number it wants for tests. Does not reply to emails.

Taking this Prof in-person you might have a better experience. His on-line material is outdated and work is out of frame. I basically learned majority of lessons on YT and staying up late nights completing the work. You can tell he doesn't put effort into his online classes. if you can grasp material without a'lot of instruction, take it for credit

Very straightforward course if you are taking his online class. 2 Aleks homework assignments due every week, not a lot of questions each. There are 4 in person tests but the study guides he gives for each are exactly like the real test.
