Good professor and relaxed one. The test are easy and you just need to know the topic you learns. Professor is organized and knows how to teacher. You wont regret taking him.

This professor made this semester fun, he is very funny, cares about the class and will give you many options to raise your grade. Attendance is mandatory, and even though you have options to raise your grade you still have to put the work in. I would definitely take him again.

He was unorganized at first but he definitely got the hang of it. Great teacher, and he always gives you options to improve your grade but you still have to put in forth an effort if you want to pass. Tests are ok. Lots of homework though, nothing too tough.

Professor John was an amazing professor and truly makes college math bearable. He cares about his students and makes sure he is there when he is needed.

class was hard. But I really enjoyed working with professor John, regardless. He is a great professor and he's 100% committed to his students. Although he is a bit demanding, it's worth it, trust me. His notes are gold. This is basically math bootcamp. Listen to what he says, and you'll be fine with with the final. He's a solid professor. 10/10

If you are not willing to do work then you falling. A lot of practice, quizzes and homeworks but they are all to help you in final. Listen to his class write and review his notes and you will definitely pass his final. Four exams in class as practice for your finals. Would totally recommend him.

One of the best professors in the MATH department very funny and friendly cares about his students look father them and even if you dont understand anything we will keep explaining it to you until you get it and it is easy A+ but you have to do the homeworks to be in track with him.

He's one of the few classes I looked forward to attending, he teaches so well and is always available if you ever need help. Be active in class, attend lectures, practice the material he gives you! He teaches you exactly what needs to be taught for you to do well on the final. I really enjoyed the way he taught, but you also need to do your part!

In all real truth, if you take him and willing to put in real effort into this class AND outside of it, then you will pass. He is so accessible, caring, and funny too with his students. He has some homeworks that are really annoying but beyond that, you can fly by this class. If you have issues, then talk to him and he'll work with you which is ��

Would recommend any freshman to take this math class. He was very lenient and gave breaks in the middle of the 2 hour lecture. He is very understanding and easy to reach outside of class. The course is based on web assign homework, quizzes, and test. HW is only worth 3% but YOU have to attend class to pass. He also records the lecture

Take him! Easy homework weekly; total 10 quizzes, 3 tests (one of them was a midterm), and the final (which was pretty easy) for the semester. He uploads lecture recordings and notes. Takes a little time to respond to emails but will give extensions to homework/quizzes if you miss them. The only part I messed up in was not participating.

Take him. Clear and easy with his grading. Homeworks due at the end of the week 10 quizzes 3 exams explains everything clearly and Ian available outisde of class. He explains very well, is engaging and nice and even allows extensions on homeworks . Easy A is you attend class and complete your work. Recommend him 100%

He is nice and takes the time to help. Math isnt my strongest subject it this class was very helpful.

DUDE, YOU SHOULD TEACH CAL 201 PLEASEE.

I took this class during the summer term. He was very hilarious and kind, but also very strict about grading and assignments. Lessons can be hard to understand, and there may be a high likelihood of stress, but he does make himself available for office hours and he does give good advice. if you're good at self studying, then I would recommend him.

I was never the same after meeting Professor David John

I took him for MATH205. Email him alot and speak to him in office hours if you have any concerns, so that he can reach back. Do your homework and study the material in class, attend tutoring if you're having issues. Practice the math problems a ton, the better you are the higher you score. Professor John is not looking to fail you.

David is a good professor, you just have to make sure you put in the effort to get a good grade in his class. Most of the teachers who teach the subject material just want a paycheck but David actually cares about his pass rate and will help you understand concepts if you put in the effort needed for his class.

He took the time to explain the material and provided many opportunities to learn the material. I solved all of the 100 problems and performed well on the final. If you want to learn then take his class.

Professor was an amazing person. I had him through 3 semester and I think he is one of the great professor. you will get lots of help from him and for final if u do his 100 question study guide u will most likely pass his class with A. one tips I will give it anyone who wants to take his class is to make sure go to his office hour & do the problem.

DJ is a good and caring professor. DJ puts students into groups of four, for the whole semester, as he understands that math is difficult. If you have any questions about the material at hand, your group members are there to guide and assist. DJ usually hosts office hours after class, so attend them if you want to pass (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!).

I recommend taking Professor David John if you have the chance. At first I had to get used to his way of teaching; however after a couple of weeks I got used it. He focuses on more group learning with his help than on just full on lectures. Which this method of his putting us in groups worked really good. His an amazing professor! Really recommend!

Take him! He cares about his students and is very nice. Just put in the work and you will pass. There is groupwork and attendace matters! He's the best.

Honestly the best math professor in ccy. He's hilarious and he makes sure all his students understand the materials and also lots of office hours for those who need additional help. I would recommend you to take him in any math courses he teaches

your gonna hate him in the beginning but love him later when grades come out

(c. Fall '23) Prof. DJ translated the material well to conceptualize and memorize for quizzes and exams. He adequately accommodated communications via Acadly, supplemented lectures with sample exams (& solutions), and had numerous TAs. DJ's presence was worthwhile!

Great professor. He's inspiring, attentive, and wishes the best for all students. He also isn't harsh with grades! He does assign a lot of assignments, but it allows us to have a better grip of the material. Gives a LOT of opportunities, so don't take it for granted.

His class is so easy because if you put in just a little bit of effort you can pass. His practice exams are always much more difficult than real ones making the exams easier. He is an entertaining professor and is generous with the opportunities he offers. Very accessible when it comes to office hours but for the life of him can't respond to emails

Had him for Fall 2023. His lectures are easy to understand, and he provides his notes as well as practice exams. He really provides a lot of tools useful for passing the class, it is just up to you to take advantage of them. The practice exams are harder than the actual exams, so take them. Just do the work and participate, and you'll be fine.

He's a lecture-heavy professor posts but note for every session. He also gives homework heavily but can extend it if needed. He got multiple TAs for help, Also after-hours. He gives some extra credit at the end. Multiple quizzes (online), 3 exams, one midterm, and one Final. Pay attention and go over the review and you'll pass easily.

best professor take him trust

Overall a great professor. Gives a lot of homework however its good practice and does prepare you for midterms and the final. TA's were great helpful. Overall not too bad, would recommend taking him.

Lot of homework, but he's a great professor. Tests are very similar to the reviews he gives out.

Extremely good professor, teaches exceptionally well and is clear on what's going to be on the exams and how to study for them. He has great tutors under him that can help you if you're having trouble with homework or if you don't understand a topic at the Artino Lab. He owes me 20 bux tho

It is a good professor. He gives review packages and encourages students to go to workshops and tutoring, which will help. It is not an easy A class if you do not have a strong math foundation and you need to put in work, but you need it for future math classes. He is motivating, and he will help you succeed if you put in the work.

Overall he is probably the best professor to take this class with. He is nice and you can talk to him and ask questions at his office hours. This is a class you NEED to study for if you're not good at math and he's pretty fair with tests. If you complete the study guides you'll do just fine on the tests, study the concepts don't memorize.

He is a really good professor his lectures are great and clear. If you still need help you can go for office hours. He is funny and entertaining.

Professor Dj was absolutely goated this semester. His lectures were clear, he uploaded notes, and gave us review questions in order to prepare for the midterms. He is super lenient with partial credit on quiz, midterm and even the final. I believe he dropped our lowest midterm (out of 4), 3 lowest quiz, and 4 hw grades. I would highly recommend Dj.

Final had me sweating.

Lectures felt like an open discussion, so there wasn't any pressure when asking questions during class. The homework assignments made it easy to learn concepts I missed or misunderstood during class. There were frequent quizzes that reflected the exact topics on the midterms, which made it easy to review for the final exam.

Take David if you get the chance. His courses are nicely structured and he sets you up to do well. You can expect homework every night (this is a good thing) and frequent quizzes, which help prepare you for the exams. He's a big personality and likes to joke around, but he seriously cares about his students and the material.

Super cool guy, treats you like a peer rather than a student. Uploads all his notes to a dropbox folder so they're easily accesible after class. Uploads lots of homework, if you do the homework you'll be fine for the exams and quizzes. Gives extra credit here and there to boost your grade. Tests are fair if you just do the work and review the notes

David's a very fair professor, and I thoroughly enjoyed the class. His class is inviting for discussion and friendly manners, and his class is easy as long as you pay attention and do the work. Exams follow similarly to the questions on hw, quizzes, and notes, so if you review them, you'll be solid. However, if you don't study, you will fail.

Great professor, be prepared to dedicate some time after class to really understand the material. Quite a bit of homework but really helps you to understand, and quizzes are based on it. Tests should be easy as long as you study past quizzes and homework. Very caring professor and doesn't want to leave anyone behind. Easily the best math professor.

Very fair class. Notes uploaded after lectures. Regular homework and quizzes. Exams are extremely fair. Creates a calm and good vibe environment. His lectures are straightforward. FYI, he may initially try to scare you into thinking it will be hardcore course, don't panic. Put in the work and you will do fine. Can't stress enough, highly recommend.

Professor John is very straight forward but in a chill way. Prepare to take a short quiz everyday to get your attendance. He doesn't give extra credit so keeping up with the exams & homework is recommended. He made tutoring part of the grade so by the end every students are expected to attend least 15 tutoring sessions. It's helpful to many student

Lectures are easy to follow. Gives weekly quizzes but they aren't worth much. Exam questions are taken directly from study guide that he gives.

He is not a bad teacher, he tells you want you need to do to be successful in the class which is to do your homework, study and practice. The only thing I dislike is he does not respond to his email which I get he teaches hundreds of kids. Overall I would totally recommend him.

He gives you his notes, homework is extra credit, and drops tests. Tries to make sure everyone succeeds but can be a tough grader at times. Always answers questions but can take time to respond (he's a really busy guy).

One of the best math teachers at CCNY. Really cares about his students. He gives you his written lecture notes. His notes are very detailed. There are four exams. He drops the two lowest exam scores. He gives a lot of hw but some of it counts as extra credit.

Honestly the best prof in ccny. He is a bit tough but he truly cares for his students and wants them to do good in class. If you are struggling with him then good luck with other professors because he is one of the easier ones.

Really good professor, thanks to him I finally passed this class after taking it two times. If you ask him for help, he will help you. He cares about his students, and wants them to pass this course. He explains the material really good, if you make questions in lecture he will explain it you nicely. Definitely would take him again.

Professor John was honestly such a nice guy, he would joke around in class sometimes, try to give you a laugh, and his tests were always fairly easy (he posts practice exams which are exactly what come on the test). Homework is frequent but not difficult, pay attention and don't be scared to ask him questions, and you'll have a wonderful semester!

Such a great professor! Genuinely cares so much about students and wants them to learn. Gives you multiple opportunities to better your grade. I suggest taking him, especially if you are a new student and this is your only math requirement.

The best math professor! His work is easy if you pay attention, and the exams—including the final—are manageable if you study and review the practice tests. Most of the time, the practice exams are very similar to the actual ones. I would 100% take his class again!

Exams are clear and straightforward. He is upfront about what you need to study and know. There are 4 exams (lowest grade dropped) + 1 final. There is homework that is counted as extra credit, and there are quizzes that are graded based on completion. Review the notes and homework for the exams, and you will do well. I would take him again!

Professor David John is very accommodating, fair, and supportive. He gives extra credit homework that helps you prepare for exams and boosts your grade. He clearly shows where test problems come from and is flexible when students need help. Great professor overall!

One of the best math professors. His practice exams are EXACTLY whats on the exam. He seems mean but that's just his humor he really wants you to pass.

He has a unique sense of humor and can be a troll.Told us that the exam would not have any formula sheets yet 10 minutes before the start he said we can write down whatever we want and use it on the exam. It was nice that we could do that but why the unnecessary stress.The final was very straightforward and almost identical to the sample.Good prof.

NGL This guy is truly a goat. He gives quizzes everyclass, and 4 midterms. So If you want to do well in his class make sure you spam lecture notes, do the homework, spam textbook questions, and go to tutoring. He might come out very strict and harsh, but he actually cares for his students. Rare gem!!

Great professor get ready to learn pay attention in his class do all the homework and you are set to get an A very understanding and funny.

He gives lots of hw and mandatory tutoring for such an easy class but the tests are easy if you study. Lectures are easy, not a lot of work done here. Very easy class.

I personally loved the way he taught and the paced he moved. Assigns ALOT of work in the book and MOM but it is extremely helpful. To prepare for tests, he gives ample material and encourages the class to complete the practice exams and go to online review. The actual exams are just like the practice so make sure you do them and study!

This isn't a class where you can just show up on the final exam and expect to pass. The exams are similar to the practice exams so go over those practice exams and you can pass. There is a lot of homework but don't let it discourage you. Pay attention, study and you'll be ok. Tutoring is mandatory.

You either gonna hate this guy or love him. His teaching style is unique and he will push you to your limits. If you study well and only do the work he tells you to do. You will pass.

Name any other professor that would take their time on saturday and sunday to tutor u for the final and give pizza and daves hot chicken while you prep with him

There is a heavy workload, but it pays off. Practice exams are similar to the real tests, and studying makes a big difference. Lectures are solid and he makes class enjoyable at times. Tutoring is required.
