He is a really good teacher very nice and extremly helpful. He believes in his students and if you show effort it pays off. One bad thing about him is the tests dont really match the review but his reviews give you the idea not the exact answers. he is a great teacher and not too bad on the eyes.

He is smart, quirky, & very personable. He wants his students to do well and acknowledges that stats is NOT an easy course for most people. Also, you do NOT have to buy the Grossmont edition of the text! The subject matter was very difficult, but that really isn't his fault.

Mr. Greenheck is an extremely personable guy, but if I hadn't met with a tutor 3 times a week, I would not have passed this class. Make sure you do the homework! It's 15% of your grade. Test questions also come from H.W. Also, Greenheck does not explain things well, he hasn't found his teaching style yet, so he uses the book and nothing else!

Mr. Greencheck is one of the best calculus instructors at Grossmont. He is kind, helpful, and he loves to see his students succeeding.

Professor Greenheck's good qualities are that he is friendly and an easy grader. Aside from that, he was very distractible and difficult to understand. He regularly spent over 20 minutes of class time talking about things completely unrelated to math, and made mistakes often when demonstrating problems on the board. He comes across as very lazy.

He doesn't explain very well and gets distracted REALLY FAST!!, he also takes forever doing easy problems and then in the last 10 min of class he's rushing or as he says he's "hauling ass". Don't take him unless you plan on learning 98% of the material on your own. WORST teacher EVER -.- !!! If I could rate him negative numbers, I WOULD!!!!

Professor Greenheck is an okay professor. His online lectures don't really connect with the assignments given. He grades very hard and sometimes changes your grade weeks later out of no where, which I find very unfair because if you grade something, you should not go and change it 3 weeks later. If something is not ready, do not grade it.

I ended up dropping the class. Greenheck is very nice and respectful, but if you are not naturally good at math then his teaching style prob isn't for you. Most people who didn't seem like natural math people dropped the class even before I did. HW isn't reflective of what's taught in class and on tests. Moves very fast through material. Not for me

Greenheck is a great professor. Sometimes he went off-topic but it was fun to interact with him. I was able to pass the class while working 30+ hours a week without having to take much of my own time going over the sections. He has office hours four times a week and has a study guide based on all the questions from the exams including the final.

Prof Greenheck is a very respectable and knowledgeable teacher. He wants students to do well and understand the concepts. During lectures, he will tend to skim over proofs and certain examples but he provides in depth video lectures on canvas for clarification. Get the book as well as the solutions manual and you will succeed. An overall good guy.

Guy doesn't come to class prepared and goes on many tangents. Assigns inconceivable amounts of homework and only lectures over the books. The homework does not match the tests and he give a pretest that looks nothing like the test. He really try's to lead you astray and use lingo to make questions more difficult on exams.

His explanations in class were clear and easy to understand. Anytime I had a question, he would take the time to answer that question. The questions on the homework are different from the content of the test. Therefore, the key to doing well on the test is to reflect on the lessons and to understand and properly digest the content of the unit.

I live 30 minutes away from Grossmont and only chose Prof Greenheck for the summer because the ones in my area were pretty bad. And It was worth it! He cares about you passing and doing your best in the class and is always helpful when you ask him questions. Of course, doing summer calc 2 in six weeks isn't easy but you can do it if you have him.

FANTASTIC professor! He really cares about you getting something out of his class not just doing well on exams. We had 4 exams and 10 quizzes. Homework was reasonable and you NEED to go to lectures if you want to do well. Prof. Greenheck has funny lectures and will always help if asked. If you don't feel confident in math, he will get you there!

Professor Greenheck is so laidback! The homework and quizzes were online but class met in person. Keep up with the schedule. You can also turn stuff in late but with a tiny penalty. He kinda covers information from the homework/quizzes, but in class we didn't do much. We were meant to have 4 exams, but he listened to what we said and cut Exam 4!

Mr. Greenheck is one of the best teachers I've ever had in terms of his ability to convey topics in a way that's understandable. However, this class is very challenging. His quizzes aren't bad, but the tests are really difficult. You'll do well if you put in the time. Very accessible outside of class and willing to help during office hours.

Be prepared for ALOT of work. As a professor he is really nice and sweet and will let things slide in order for you to get a good grade, but there is a lot of homework assignments in this class and the EXAMS are TOUGH, everything is graded as you submit it. Advice is to do really good on the homework assignments just in case you do bad on the exams

Awesome professor who made math fun to learn. He understands the difficult concepts of math and explains them in ways that are easy to understand. He gives students multiple opportunities to pass this class even if they are failing. If you fail his course, it's solely due to a lack of effort as a student and not him as a professor.

Professor Greenheck is very understanding when it comes to students. Coming from someone who isn't that good at math (especially calculus), he helped me understand it better. He encouraged students to come to office hours if they were confused and would even give points back to improve your score. Coming out of this class, I learned a lot.

A picky & tough grader. Accepts no work that is not done exactly as he taught, despite us all having different math backgrounds. Lectures are long & often don't feel related to the homework or exams. He expects you to dedicate your whole life to his class alone & dissects every single move you make; he must have too much time on his hands.

He's a great teacher! A majority of the time, he simplifies concepts to make them easier to comprehend during lectures. A critique I have is that sometimes he gets so invested in a problem, and it can make you feel lost. Outside of that, he's funny, and his conspiracy theories are fun to hear.

Genuinely the worst teacher, This man just liked to talk. If you want to learn and do good please don't take him. He was very unorganized and a bad grader, most people failed his class, He should not be a teacher. He always managed to get politics involved while teaching, although I share his political view, I find it inappropriate in a math class.
