He is a really good, at the begin it was hard. I will ask him one on one , and i was able to understand it better. Thank you Mr. Jones
Professor Jones is my favorite math professor by far. He's fair in his teaching methods and is focused on not leaving anyone behind. Anyway, my overall experience was a good one and I can assure you that yours will be too.
Was a really great teacher! Makes sure everyone understands and is following along okay. Grades fair and is really nice.
Professor Jones is someone who cares about his students and wants everyone to pass. If you have any trouble understanding a problem he will show you multiple ways on how to do it. He offers extra credit and gives good feedback on tests. He also answers emails very quickly. My overall experience was great!
Professor Jones was my favorite teacher by far! He cares about his students and wants everyone to succeed. He will make sure that everyone understands something before moving on, and always offers to help anyone.
Professor Jones was my favorite math teacher! He taught me so much better and explains his steps carefully so everyone can follow along. he is very patient and will show you a different way so you can understand the problem as well. He gives extra credit and sometimes opens the mathlab to do homework you didn't finish!
So grateful for Professor Jones! Always so encouraging and helpful. Truly cares about his students and their academic success. Makes sure you are clear in your understanding of the subject matter and welcomes questions. Never thought I would enjoy an Algebra class! His impact on me will go beyond the classroom. Thanks for believing in me!
Professor Jones is a wonderful math teacher. He makes math easier to grasp and hold on to that knowledge. I was able to learn on a well managed time line. He also has a great personality. He is very welcoming to help and support his student in achieving the grade they are willing to work for.
Professor Jones is an exceptional instructor! He simplifies math so that everyone can understand & goes the extra mile to give you additional help outside of class if needed. I highly recommend him as an instructor!
If you've always struggled in math, this is the Professor you want. He makes sure you understand the material before moving on, gives plenty of time for homework & throws in practice tests. There is no way you can fail this class unless you simply don't try!
Really cool Professor. Explains everything as simple and straight -forward as possible (for math that is a must). He is always in a good mood and ready to help out.
Professor Jones is by far, one of the BEST math teachers I have ever had. He stays after class if you need help, helps you outside of class, accessible by email and a teacher who just wants to make sure you understand and excel in his class. A hilarious teacher, he will definitely have you laughing. Professor Jones makes learning fun.
Awesome Awesome Awesome professor!! Passed class with a straight A. Class was very easy and fun. Hate math but i didnt mind going to this class. Would highly recommend to everyone that has a hard time understanding math, he makes it easy to understand.
Amazing lectures I would retake him again he made everything clear and when you needed help he would go over the problem and explain it worksheets after each lecture i liked it because it sticks with you I would highly recommend taking him
Professor Jones is always kindly willing to work with you in or outside of class, you make or break your own grade in this class, he has some great lectures and is always open to any questions. I did only 30% of my homework so the grade I received I think was deserved, but overall he is a great humorous professor and I wish he taught more courses!
I took his course and earned a poor grade. I earned it because I was trying something harder then was recommended to me and I don't hold any hard feelings. in fact I respect this professor even more for looking out for my future. he offers more help then I have seen in my over 40 years in learning and working for education. This man truly cares
Being a Military Service member and taking college courses is often times a difficult mix but taking Mr. Jones's class made classes easy to understand and he was flexible with scheduling conflicts. He also took personal time out of class to help those in need and that speaks on a lot of levels. Best teacher I've had the pleasure to study under.
Professor Jones is one of the best professors I have ever met. He know his stuff inside out. I've been out of school for so many years, but having Mr. Jones helped me learn the subject easily because of the way he teaches.
great professor, show up. pay attention. And you should pass the class with flying colors
Best math teacher I have ever had. David goes out of his way to make sure you learn.
Mr Jones is one of the best teachers I have ever had. It is very obvious how much he cares about his students and wants them to succeed at Math. Math was never something that came easy for me and he was able to make me understand it so much better. He also put in a ton of extra time for myself along with other students who needed help.
He takes the time to help you understand the material
TEACHER IS THE BEST DUDE. FIRST TIME IN COLLEGE, ANNNND HE WAS THERE IF YOU NEEDED HIM OUTSIDE OF CLASS. COVERED A LOT OF MATERIAL, BUT HE CARES. HE DON'T WANT TO LEAVE HIS STUDENTS BEHIND.
AMAZING GUY. TRULY LOVES HIS JOB
Mr. Jones is honestly the best math teacher (and best college professor) I've ever had. Even though I was a Highschool student he still treated me with respect. There was a lot of homework since it was a summer class but he still didn't assign more than what was necessary. If he was still at west hills I would definitely take him again!
One of my favorite teachers by far! I've never been very good at math but I actually understand it better because of his teaching. He does offer tutoring which has helped me out. I highly recommend taking his classes!
I took mr. jones class last year in the spring and I have never been able to understand math very well but he is an amazing teacher, and was able to actually teach me some math and got me to love math !
Hes funny and makes sure you understand. Will answer all questions clearly.
Professor Jones does a great job explaining the material. The week of every test, including the final, he goes over a practice test in class so you know exactly what to expect. I'm taking him again next semester.
He's a chill teacher, he makes the work easier to understand that a lot of other teachers would. He's not strict about attended and he extended homework deadlines numerous times. I don't really like math, but this teacher made it more enjoyable.
He is the best maths teacher at COS, he helped me understand maths, and encouraged students to ask any questions if they don't understand the problem. You need to do your homework, study for the test, and you will be fine. Honestly he is the best, even if you had a family problems, he will do anything to help you to succeed in his class.
2 sections a day. For the interpretation he does, speed is awesome. Explains in detail. Encourages questions which I really like.
David Jones is the best teacher/professor I have ever had. I feel very fortunate to be his student. I really hope I can take him next semester too. Thank you so much for being so awesome and loving your job.
Mr. Jones is honestly the best professor I have had at cos, there is nobody more willing to take his time and make sure you understand the material then he is. And he does a perfect job of braking down his lectures so that the material sinks in. the pace of work is perfect, and with my schedule I couldn't ask for a better professor to learn from
Good teacher , easy class . Just cusses ALOT and says inappropriate things which is very annoying . On the plus side, hes the material and goes at a good pace . Test are very easy as long as you review the study guide.
Professor Jones is hands down the best math professor I've ever taken a class from. In truth, he's probably the best professor I've ever taken ANY class from. He genuinely cares about his students success and if you show him that you are putting in the effort to do well he will put in the effort to make sure you do. I cannot recommend him enough!
Im not a fan of math, but the way Mr. Jones teaches is awesome!! He breaks down every little part of the problem & makes sure you understand it. Hes super funny & helpful! Hes really involved w/ students via email which is great! All HW is done through mathlab. You get 3 exams & the final. Very easy class, jst make sure you study for your test.
Very accessible, rarely ever boring, is willing to work with you, overall a very good professor.
This guy is really cool and a great proessor. I would take him again.
Professor Jones is a great professor and an even more down to earth individual, there is a lot of HW and Quizzes but they are all in a very timely matter so time should not be a problem. He is very understandable and thus caring to his students. He might swear a lot for some people but its something I didnt mind. He is always open to HW questions
Math is hard for me. I passed with and A. He thoroughly explains and willing to help 100%
Overall I highly recommend this professor for anyone that wants to learn in a great environment. Mr Jones teaches the curriculum highly well and provides a fun educational experience.
Mr. Jones was an excellent teacher. He explained the material very clearly to where it was easy to grasp. He is very down to earth and I look forward to taking more of his classes.
Mr jones is a down to earth teacher! If you want to pass this class you will. He takes notes along with us during class and makes them available for a student who may have missed a day. Hes straight forward and very informative. I couldnt have asked for a better teacher.
Mr Jones is the funniest teacher ever. He makes math fun, and explains it so well. I highly recommend Mr Jones, hes really cool.
Best math teacher ever. Explains lectures very well. Take notes and you copy for projector. He will also scan then in case you miss class they're available for you. He takes time put of his life in case you need extra help on tutoring. Very funny. You will never have a very math teacher then him. I am taking him for math 230 also.
Hes an awesome professor! Super helpful and always ask if he needs to further explain or slow down! Give an opportunity for extra credit in the beginning on year and you turn it in before you take the final test. He also gives tutoring over the weekends for anyone who will benifit from it. I am taking him again for Math 230.
The BEST math teacher ever. I took him for Math 200 last year and Math 230 this semester. His teaching is thorough. Prepare to take notes but if you missed anything he will scan his and post in Canvas. Need more help? Jones will meet up with you after class, during the week or on wknds for tutoring. Funny, down to earth and caring. Lots of HW & EC
Mr. Jones is an awesome instructor. He is a caring person and he makes learning fun. He makes time outside of class to give help to students that need that extra help. I encourage anyone needing to take any math to look for him you will not regret it.
if you're looking for a professor who possesses compassion and cares about his students, look no further than El Jefe. His witty humor and enthusiasm in class makes showing up to class a little more tolerable. He's very lenient, but don't get on his bad side because he will intentionally consume Chipotle and make you rue the day you dared cross him
I can honestly say that Professor Jones was one of the best, if not "the best," instructor I have ever had. He gave enormous amounts of help and cared whether we passed or not. He took time out of his weekends to assist students that were having trouble. Would definitely recommend. If I ever have any more math classes ill look for his first.
As a non traditional adult student, professor Jones has been an inspiring force in my academic career. He is passionate about teaching and he loves math. He is accesible outside of the classroom and he is really entertaining which makes math fun. I highly recommend him.
He takes the time to meet up with you when you out side of class if you have questions or need help. His laid back personality makes it easy for people with anxiety (such as myself). The class notes are posted online after each class just in case you missed a day or left early. I've always struggled with Algebra but he made it easy to understand.
Mr. Jones is hands down the best professor I've ever had. He seriously wants his students to succeed. He is available out of class for extra help. Lectures are great. He encourages everyone to ask when they are confused. I am thankful for having him as my professor and will be taking the next class with him!
Jones is fun to learn from and cares about the students learning. Very willing to to help you learn the material if you didnt get it the first time.
I am awful at math. And he made me less awful.
Very very great teacher! Not only will you be laughing all through his lecture because of his jokes but at the same time you'll be learning a lot. His class isn't boring at all and his intstructions are always clear, his teaching is very understandable and he gives all the help he can and even offers to help outside of class. Highly recommend!!
Highly recommend!
This guy is amazing! Tried 2 other attempts at a math class and failed horribly. I haven't taken a math course in 20 years but I aced his class. I had to do the work. I put in the time, energy, and effort but he was the one who could explain things in a way that made sense. He's good at what he does and he goes above and beyond to help. He's real!
I love Mr. Jones!! Best math teacher ever! He explains each and every step clearly. I went into summer program hoping to get a C but came out with an A.. Take him for math. You will not regret it..
If you like jokes take his class! He makes you feel like his peer and doesn't look down on you. I have a scheduling conflict that makes it impossible to take his next class other wise I'd take it for sure.
Such a good teacher! I suck at math and took two of his classes and passed both with a A+!! Totally recommend
Mr. Jones is by far the best math teacher you will ever have. So, thankful for his support and dedication. He really cares about us students and wants us to succeed. Above all he takes the time to teach you one on one so you can understand the material. Not to mentions his personality is contagious. I wish all professor were do dedicated.
Great guy, gives lots of extra credit. Overall it was a great experience.
Jones is amazing! He can teach math to a brick. If you don't understand, he takes time to think of a way to teach you so you get it. You suit up, show up, and do the work you'll definitely pass this class. He will go above and beyond if you are willing to do the same. I recommend him to everyone. Thanks for everything Jones, your awesome. Take him.
Best math professor I've had here at COS, wish I would've taken more classes with him.
One thing you need to know about Professor Jones is that he is great at his job at teaching. I took 3 of his classes and enjoyed them very much. There is a lot of homework, which you should at lest try to do because it will really help in class. Even if you struggle, he finds potential in you and does not doubt that you will pass. Great Professor:)
Math is usually taught as a very abstract subject, and so, it is difficult for many people to understand what it all means on a physical level. Mr. Jones is great at giving real life applications to the content and goes out of his way to help students when they need help. He will help you truly understand the material and will make you laugh a lot!
10/10 would take again
He is a amazing teacher. I had him for math 200 and 230 I learn a lot from him. He gives extra credit so take advantage of it. There is a bit of homework but that's how you get your practice. If you having trouble with the math just talk to him he is available outside of class too. Will recommed him to everyone.
Definitely take math with Jones if you want an enjoyable experience as well as learning the content. He really does care about his students and wants them to succeed and it shows.
Jones is a great, funny teacher who is dedicated to helping his students succeed.
Mr. Jones is a very caring and good teacher. His lectures are easy to understand. He gives extra credit this can boost your grade up a bit. He does submit his lecture notes on canvas in case you miss class. Would take him again he is great.
Professor Jones is truly great professor. I think his best quality is that he WANTS to students to succeed in his classes. He is very approachable and makes statistics enjoyable. He really helps his students prepare for the midterm and final exam (which is SUPER HELFUL). Plus, hes very funny and hell definitely keep you engaged during class!
Best teacher ever! Hilarious and very thorough. Really cares about his students success.
Mr. Jones thoroughly spends class time making sure students understand the criteria for tests. If you have a question, ask. Although attendance isn't mandatory, it's a good idea to go to class to understand the procedure of problems. Also, take his practice tests as those are the greatest pieces of information in preparation for the tests.
He is by far the best professor I have had and will ever have. If I could take him for all my courses I would. He is fair and hilarious. He makes the class really fun. He creates fun activities with the material. Show up, do the homework, and pay attention. He will be a huge help if you are struggling as well. He is a rare gem that's for sure! lol
Jones is the best teacher hands down ! He truly cares about his students. If you dont pass his class is because you didnt try. He gives you alot of good feedback
David Jones is hands down the best professor I have had at College of the Sequoias. I had it already in mind before the semester that Calculus 3 was going to be extremely extremely difficult and he made everything seem so simple. There were even weekends where he would help students study for the test. The man is hilarious, genuine, and a genius.
Super good teacher!!! I would definitely take him again and if you get a chance make sure you do take his class. He makes it understandable, he allows you to fix things and truly learn, and hes funny!! I would try to attend as many classes as possible, but he does work with you if you need to miss.
Dr. Jones class was really great. I had him for statistics. He's really great at keeping the class engaged during lectures and really good at providing feedback. He's definitely one of the best Math instructors I've had.
Professor Jone's statistics class is straight forward. Just don't procrastinate within homework, go to class, and ask questions if you do not understand the material. This is where you will get lots of laughs throughout the lecture while gaining much knowledge within the material.
My favorite professor! He made math fun and hilarious. Thank you for everything Mr. Jones youre the best !
Great professor! Would definitely take him again. I'm horrible at math so I was nervous to take this class. Jones made math tolerable. He related life back to stats so it made it easier. Final and midterm were easy. Just make sure you stay on top of the mymathlab HW and quizzes.
Jones is an awesome stats teacher. I suck at math and Jones makes it easier to understand. You get to choose what the percentages of everything is, so make sure to keep an eye when doing everything. He opens the homework couple times so take advantage of that. The group project is easy if you understand the math part. Final remember
He genuinely cares about his students, will spend the time trying to help you understand the material and match your efforts. Not your typical professor, but hes honest. The material is tricky for Stats, but he made it a game to remember everything. Show up to class, his lecture is way better then power points, lots of practice, hilarious!!!
Hes an awesome professor! He is there for u even if u need help after class. I love how if u miss a class, that he scans his lectures so u wont be too far behind. I would take him again if I need another math class! Already recommended him to other people
I had this teacher for 360, 200 & 230. Im literally the child left behind in math, its my kryptonite but this teacher has helped me survive this mountainous climb through math. Hes certainly unorthodox but as long as theres a Rufino in the class, entertainment remains. Just do hw & really try, he will help however he can.
Professor Jones is one of the best at COS. He always makes time for his students outside of class for extra help. Overall, he truly cares about his students; always ensuring that they learn and understand the material.
He is very understanding and is always willing to help you even if you dont understand he will help you in different ways to understand the material better. This class is funny and he is an amazing teacher. Always tried to help you out in any way he can
Really great teacher, keeps the class entertaining, explains the curriculum very well, does study sessions, will help you out, offers extra credit, very funny and cheerful, a lot of hw. I would recommend taking any of Mr. Jones classes.
Mr. Jones is a good professor I would recommend him to anyone. He makes his lessons interesting and makes math easy
Mr. Jones is awesome. Took precalc over the summer (so much info in little time). COULD be a hard class, but he explains everything. He is near always there if you need him and does things he doesn't need to, but to your benefit. I'll say for ref. I'm a good student and had to study, but that's just how math is. HIGHLY recommend!!
Funny guy with lots of movies/tv shows references. Easy to follow notes also.
Great professor!
I took a 3 1/2 hour summer math course, which is just about the worst thing you can do. Thankfully I had Mr. Jones who was hilarious, so I was never bored. He gave great lectures and notes, so that I never felt stressed about having to learn on my own. If your looking for a good math teacher, look no further.
David Jones was by far my favorite math teacher by far. would definitely recommend taking him for everyone
Mr Jones is a great professor that goes the extra mile to help you succeed. He provides personal time on the weekends to help clarify any misunderstood criteria. Overall, he is very helpful and understanding.
Professor Jones is an amazing professor. He is super easy and his lectures are straight forward and fun to interact with. He teaches the topic quite good. If you have the chance, take one of Mr. Jones's classes.
Missed almost half of the semester. He continues to fart in class. He is a shameless professor. I highly recommend taking any other professor at COS.
Might miss class a lot
Professor has genuine humor that keeps class interesting. Prepares you really well and hw is optional for extra credit!
Great teacher!
As long as you do the homework on my math lab you will pass the class. DO NOT get behind and pay attention in the lectures. Write down everything and especially ask for help when you need it. Jones will help you and go to the math lab as well.
Great Teacher. Makes class fun, and would definitely recommend to everybody. Great overall teacher, and will help you out with anything if you ask for it.
By far THE BEST TEACHER I HAVE EVER WORKED WITH. I have never spoken so highly of a professor if you are struggling with math he is the best option for you. Don't be afraid to ask questions he will help you if you show him you need help.
David Jones is by far the best math teacher i have taken. He helps a lot when you have questions and is a funny guy. He usually extends homework but don't fall behind. His practice midterms and finals are exactly the same just differently numbers. Fantastic teacher and showing up to class helped a lot.
Just watched this professor degrade one my classmates and brought her to tears in front of the whole class just because she asked him to slow down while teaching a section. He usually asks us to let him know if hes moving too fast and many of us have asked in the past. He blew up on her so bad that she left the class crying.
100% would recommend taking Professor Jones. He is a great teacher, very intelligent and knowledgeable. Explains all topics extremely well. He Is very understanding and is willing to help you out (if you deserve it obviously). Best Math Teacher ive ever had and one of the best if not the best at COS.
Professor Jones is one of the few professors that actually care about his students. He truly goes above and beyond to help his students pass his class by going over each step. He even takes time out of his day to give extra help for those that are struggling. He is the best professor that I had taken at COS. El Jefe for life!
It had been several years since I had taken a math class, but Mr Jones explained step by step each process & made time outside of class to help. He gives clear instructions & even goes over exam questions with you. He cares about his students and goes above & beyond to help you understand the work & to help you pass the class. Thanks Mr Jones!
Prof. Jones is BY FAR the most engaged and is a REAL TEACHER who loves his job and cares about student success! I've had alot of teachers but can count on 1 hand the ones that care. With that, Prof Jones is the only teacher I've had that has made every effort to match student effort with his avalibity to help and tutor! Thank you so much for caring
I recommend taking his class! Easiest math class I have ever taken. Before the pandemic we would take notes every class day and do some HW examples but during the pandemic Jones came through with YouTube videos to help us out at home. DO ALL YOUR HW AND QUIZZES and you will be guaranteed to pass the only hard part about this class was the project.
Extended MANY deadlines so students had a chance to submit work. I usually dont like doing math but this teacher made math so much easier to understand. Class was moved online half way through the year, but when attending class it was very easy to follow his lectures.
Professor Jones is an amazing teacher, even through COVID-19 nothing changed because his lectures were very helpful and he always made himself available to help anyone. Not only is he a good teacher, hes a really cool guy, really funny, and is just one of those teachers that makes college enjoyable. My tip, DONT leave homework for last minute!
He's an amazing teacher and made it well known that you really should do the homework/know the material if you want to pass the class right off the get go. He has office hrs and is actually willing to help students who ask for it. If he has Math/Stat Lab then ABUSE the Ask My Professor button at the top "help area" and he'll help you!
I had professor Jones for Math 230 and Math 021 (Stat), both have A. A lot of homework on Pearson. But Professor Jones always there to help. He replies any question back fast. He scans all his lecture notes on Canvas, lecture videos on youtube (for the alternate online class).
I learned more about statistics with Professor Jones than I have with any other professor. He provides the tools you will need and explains the material quite well. If you put in the effort into making it to class and doing the homework, getting an A will not be hard.
Prof. Jones is a great instructor, I recommend anyone planning to take math 154 whenever, to take it with prof, jones. Lectures are easy to follow, and include examples to further understand the material.
He was an absolute gem of a teacher. He would go out of his way to make sure I passed the class and even went as far as to offer more help even after the semester was over. He is also very laid back, understanding, and all around just a very cool dude.
He is a very nice guy. He cares about his students well and always offers help. It is impossible not to pass this class. I think most students get A. However, he lets us know the point that we should learn about this course if the students attend his Zoom conference.
Required a lot of Work/Study time
Awesome professor! Cares about his students & wants them to pass. Offers extra credit- do it to pad your grade in case you don't do well on the midterm or final. We had 1 midterm, 1 project & a final. He gives you everything you need to pass & do well & is very vocal about his students taking self-responsibility to pass. Extended HW many times.
He gives good lectures on each chapter explaining what the chapter will discuss. He makes things easier to understand and has great office hours! I would definitely recommend his class if it's your first time taking Stats.
He gives you all the tools and resources to succeed. He's patient and takes time to explain.
He is really chill and easy to get along with, and he understands the kids and I really like that about him
Professor Jones goes above and beyond. He truly cares about his students. The class was taught virtual due to Covid but his videos were very easy to understand. He offers great extra credit options. Homework counts for a-lot but he gives tons of time to complete. Best math teacher I have ever had.
Ive never been a math person I would say its my worst subject. When I first enrolled in this class I even doubted my myself about even passing, but lucky it wasnt as difficult as I thought it would be!! I would highly recommend this professor!!! 10 out of 10!!!
Professor Jones is a great teacher! He is always there for his student and responds to email questions fast. During his office hours he will explain everything very good. He gives you all the materials you need to be successful in his class. I always struggled in math but in his class it was very understanding. I would definitely take him again.
Math is not my favorite subject but Professor Jones made it understandable by watching his lectures and taking notes. He was always available for tutoring even outside his office hours. He makes sure you understand the material and he's very patient. Don't procrastinate when doing homework. Extra credit is offered and take advantage of it.
If you are looking for a math professor who actually cares about the well-being of his students then you should take Professor Jones! He is one of the most down to earth people and gives you opportunities to correct your mistakes. If you at least meet him half way by doing your work, then you will be fine!
honestly if you put in the work you can definitely get an A i just got lazy at one point. he is possibly the nicest prof ive ever had & is always willing to help! just dont take advantage
I really enjoyed this class. Professor Jones was very funny during the lectures, and was always available to help with questions. The class was a little difficult because of the fast pace, but as long as you do the homework, you will have no problem passing.
Prof. Jones is a "diamond in the rough" here at COS. His lectures are amazing, he grades clearly, and is one of the most caring people, let alone caring instructors, whom I have come across online. I am not so sure how he is in person, but his online presence was incredible. Take this professor if you have the chance.
Honestly probably one of the best math professor/teacher I have ever had throughout my education history. Homework wasnt mandatory for the grade which was dope. He gave prac tests that very similar to the actual test which was a nice change when compared to other professors. In short he made a math class enjoyable.
Professor Jones was one of the best professors I have had at COS. He is very clear in the syllabus about what to expect in the online course and made homework/practice tests optional with only 4 tests. He has hilarious lectures and he gives you all the resources for an easy A if you put in the effort. 11/10 recommend taking his class.
Even thought it was an online class, I found his video lectures very helpful, and I knew if I needed help, I could contact him and get a response pretty quickly. The tests weren't too difficult and he gave extra points for showing work, which helped me a lot.
MATH035 was harder than I thought it'd be. Each week is an average of 3 lectures (3-5.5 hours/week) and assignments (20-30 problems each that took me about 2 hours to complete). The lectures were my biggest issue as I found them too long. You could probably find better ones on Youtube. But if you do work you'll be fine as he is always happy to help
He gives extensions!!!!!
Great professor! He is helpful and understanding.
Funny guy. Make sure to take very good notes during his lectures. It may seem tedious but trust me it helps A LOT.
He great! reach out very fast when you need help! and super funny!
David Jones cares about his students and willing to help anyone if they need it.
Professor Jefe is a great professor. I took him for intro to computer programming, and through his lectures and teaching I went from knowing nothing about C++ to being able to develop programs all by myself. He is a great lecturer who records all of his class sessions and posts them to YouTube, so it's easy to keep up with all the content.
Overall a really good professor, hw assignments are handed out weekly like any other class with the occasional test. He grades the assignments sort of strictly but explains why you got marked down and how to fix what you did wrong for the next time. Also was flexible with late work which was very nice.
David Jones is a great professor. His lectures are filled with important information, so be sure to take notes! These come in handy throughout the semester. He breaks down each concept really well. Also, take advantage of the extra credit! He's really funny and easy going. Don't be afraid to reach out if you need help!
One of the most understanding and kind professors I've ever had, I was lucky to have his class. Also his lectures are on YouTube so it's easy to navigate to one if you forget something.
One of the most kind and understanding professors I've ever had, I was lucky to have taken his class. Also his lectures are on YouTube so it's easy to navigate through and find a certain lecture if you forget something. Edit: I accidently submitted my review twice somehow so ignore this you've seen it before.
He was a very good professor. He would explain the topics very clearly and he would give great feedback that was very helpful in fixing my mistakes.
Jefe will always answer your questions. No matter how you contact him.
I promise you that you will not find a more committed College Professor than Mr. Jones, he is very understanding, always willing to do whatever it takes to make sure student understands the material, he goes above and beyond the line of duty as a professor, no other teacher will be better than this man for subjects he teaches, that I can guarantee.
Professor Jones is very easy going professor, he provide a lot of the time outside class, easy to reach nearly all the time, and study session during weekend. He is open to help in all area, clear explaination of all the class content.
Jones is a great professor who knows what he's doing when he's teaching the material, and is good about giving you feedback on your struggles. I highly recommend going to his office hours outside of class, because it can and will make all the difference in your performance in the class if you're willing to work hard for what you hope to achieve.
The difficulty of the class is pretty average because if you just ignore the videos he puts on youtube which is really accessible, you may end up falling behind. It becomes easier when you put in the work and effort to watch and analyze these as well as come to class as it's a huge aspect when it comes to tests. Amazing and reasonable teacher 10/10
I can't speak to his teaching in stats, but the experience in Calc 3 was great. The homework was optional, so it felt self taught outside of class, but the practice exams matched the actual exam closely. There's a lot of extra credit so the lack of homework isn't a problem for grading. He's also down to Earth and talks with students on Discord.
Very straight to the point about assignments and gives you plenty of time to study. He also gives reviews for the midterm, project and final, and reviews are exactly like the exam. If you have a tough time with math, this class would be best for you as it is broken down and takes you step by step on the homework and exams. Great professor!!!
Mr.Jones really does care about his students and will help in anyway that he can. He is very straightforward with everything he teaches in class and if you miss a class you can find the videos on YouTube. I have taken multiple classes with him since 2016 he really connects with his students. I recommend him for any math class you need.
I had David Jones for math, and he is an awesome professor. He is very helpful and easy to reach out too.
Professor Jones is an amazing teacher! He answered all of my questions and he replies to emails pretty fast. His lectures were very well done; it is obvious that he knows the topic very well. I learned a lot in this class and I would 100% recommend it to anyone.
The video lectures are easy to skip, but are very important for your understanding the class. The class is structured in a very intuitive way that makes it easy for you to learn, but you really have to be self-motivated. The tests are harder than the homework would make it seem, so be sure you truly understand all the concepts.
He is very funny and made his own style to do some of the math that made it easier for everyone else
Professor Jones is a very caring person who will make sure that you succeed in class. His lectures are easy to understand and very helpful. He is hilarious, makes class fun.
I am not very good at math and for me to pass with a B is great I love the fact that even on the days you are not able to make it to class you still have the opportunity to watch the videos of class and still be able to get notes I would recommend Professor Jones and would retake his class if needed.
Professor Jones was always quick to respond to me when needing help. He truly cares about his students, wants them to succeed, and shows his dedication to helping students learn. Each chapter of homework is gone over in class that he gives examples for to better understand the material. He's also very funny which made class enjoyable for everyone.
Professor Jones was a good teacher an I learned well from him. He does give extra credit and is clear when grading. The only reason I gave him a 4/5 is because he uses quite a bit of profanity which is very unprofessional and can get uncomfortable. As long as that doesn't bother you, you'll be fine in his class.
Professor Jones has given me a second opportunity to join his class, although I didn't do so well the first time. Not necessarily because it's a difficult course, I just had many issues outside of school that was time conflicting and difficult to focus in school. I'm thankful I had the second opportunity to redeem myself and recommend this course.
Always there if need help on the homework and worked with you if for some reason you where not able to take the midterm in class will meet up with you.
He is awesome and I was able to learn a lot from him!!
Professor Jones provides everything you need in order to pass this course. If you miss a day of lecture, you can probably find it on his YouTube channel which is very helpful. He responds to emails within the hour and answers any concerns.
I took Mr. Jones online statistics 21 class this summer. I knew I was biting off a lot to chew when I started and I was not wrong but Mr. Jones extended due dates and offered plenty of extra credit and I was able to finish with an A+. Because it was online I did not get to know him very well but through video he seemed very down to earth.
Teaching style is very unique, creates good connections so showing that he cares. Would take his class again. We had a lot of fun lectures and a lot of laughs. 10/10
Professor David Jones is an amazing professor who is very easy to understand and engages with everyone, gives helpful examples, and breakdown problems in an effective way and really cares about everyone in his class to understand the work so that they can be successful. I really appreciated most of all the time he gave us all to teach us the best
He is very funny & gives good information on all his videos, to help you pass the class, he also gives extra credit to help you bring your grade up. what I like about him is he is very realistic and understands math is not an easy subject so he does want you to succeed the class and pass his mindset is very positive so ask away he always available.
Overall pretty good he just needs to be more respectful to students, he takes everything as a joke even though those words might hurt the student, to get respect you must respect others too. His reply comment in the rubric also very rude, can't speak nicely.
Best professor so far
Professor Jones has been an inspiration to me and my academic career. He is a truly caring professor that will help you through any means he is able. The only way you fail his class is if you do not care yourself. I was his first time teaching CALC 065 but i feel from previous courses that he delivered lecture above and beyond. Best math professor.
Great teacher! Easy and understanding!
He was professional and funny at the same time during lectures. Getting grades were simple to understand on what has to be done. Not a lot of assignments, difficult but very manageable. Overall, great professor and would definitely have him again.
You have to WANT to learn calculus to pass this class. TEST HEAVY is an understatement & they're difficult tests, be warned. You need to be able to get back up if you fail an exam and keep fighting to pass. Homework is not mandatory but it is extra credit.. do every problem, if you can't do one, ask for help. It is not easy but Prof Jefe will help.
Had a great time learning stats, and looked forward to the lectures and also great videos on YouTube to help you go over the material. Best math teacher!
Enjoyed the class! I was nervous about stats, however, Mr. Jones made the class easy and fun. He explains and even records videos to go back to it later if needed. He works with you and gives you extra time to get your work done. He was also funny so the class was not boring.
Vary good professor's vary understanding and explains the subject vary clearly!!!
Mr. Jones makes the course very approachable even to someone like me who dreads math. If you have a problem with MyMathLab he responds relatively quickly, and his lectures are available on YouTube if you're not able to make it to lecture. Overall, he's an awesome professor with a great sense of humor!
Amazing professor, if you're a visual learner like I am he is the way to go! He's very funny which makes the class more enjoyable! He Is also very understanding and will answer ANY questions that you need answered! Passed the class with a C and now understand stats more than I ever thought I would! 10/10 recommend!
Great teacher! Professor Jones is good at explaining the programming concepts for our class. Despite learning something new in each lecture, it was easy to understand and. He's kind, funny, and encourages creativity with c++.
Nicest professor I've had. Whenever I would email him about an issue or anything, he would be very quick to respond, and would be of great help. He assigns lots of homework, but it's all optional, you can choose to do it for your own benefit.
Professor Jones is the best computer science professor I have had! He is thorough in his lectures but also promotes/emphasizes being able to look for information on your own so that you understand the material. Highly suggest taking his class, and as long as you take the time to go through his lectures and the homework you will be good to go!
Jones is a very accessible professor, if you have a question just email him. He also records all his lectures so if anything was missed in class you could always go back to the recording. Great professor overall.
Very homework heavy and expect to need to spend many hours outside of class studying and reviewing lectures
Professor Jones has been one of the best professors I have ever had. Great lectures and makes sure everyone understands before moving on. It was a pleasure to be in his class.
Mr. Jones is an awesome professor. He genuinely cares about his students and does his best to accommodate and give them options. From uploading his lectures onto YouTube to allowing virtual office hours or participation, attendance is not mandatory creating a stress-free environment when life inevitably happens while ot missing out on his knowledge
Helpful with the videos made
As long as you Google the terms from the lecture notes you don't know and don't try to cheat with ChatGPT on your exams, you should be fine. Fun class!
Dr. Jones is an awesome prof to take! not only is he super chill and very funny, he's very knowledgeable and always willing to answer questions. He never once made me feel stupid or burdensome for asking a question. Why cant all professors be as nice as him?
David Jones was a great professor even though the homework load was a lot. All homework is on ALKES which gives you a list of assignments due weekly. David Jones posts lecture videos for all topics, and they are very helpful. I would just recommend not taking other heavy classes with this one, because the homework can sometimes take a while.
He made learning easy and fun. If you are unclear on anything he is great about guiding you step by step. He isn't wanting to fool you he wants to make sure you have a clear understanding. He is able to teach in different styles for different learners.
I loved this professor just because he was so amazing. Recorded every lecture and has youtube videos as well. Gives you practice midterm and final and it's similar to the real tests!
Great profesor who is always willing to hear you out if you have any questions. He explains things in great detail and is able to connect with his students and create a fun environment to be around. Overall very satisfied and will take more classes with him in the future.
Funny professor who knows how to make a class entertaining. Chill dude and the class was easy. Sometimes I didn't even need the textbook to do the assignments; the lecture just did it for me. Only "bad" thing was that he accused me of cheating only because I don't know anything about Dungeons and Dragons.
Professor Jones is a great instructor. He uploads videos of his lectures on YouTube. I highly recommend him.
good material
Professor was funny and engaging in every single lecture. He slowed down and answered questions whenever we asked and offered help during breaks. Whenever we got bored or waited for someone to finish writing the notes he told us stories or jokes. Good professor with a great personality! Wish I could have taken his semester class.
Great Professor, stays after class if help is needed, he is available on zoom to answer questions. Gives extra credit for doing assignments on time. Super funny, might fart.. Makes conversation with students while other catch up on lecture notes. Class is never boring.
Professor Jones makes learning math enjoyable. His engaging lectures, helpful videos, and practice materials make the course manageable. unstuckstudy was a great study aid alongside the class resources.
One of the chillest and nicest professors out there. Knows how to joke around but be serious. Simple class if the effort is put into it. Doesn't grade much besides homework and two exams. Engages with every student one way or another.
Simple lectures, pay attention ask questions and do the homework, you should be just fine, would highly recommend taking him
Great professor, he always try to make the class enjoyable, stays after class if someone needs help or have questions about the lecture, and waits patiently for students to finish taking notes. It was an honor to take this class, I would definitely take it again.
Jones did not teach well— he moved fast over material as if we already had degrees in mathematics and was hard to track in lectures. He has very crude humor. I had taken a difficult Calc 1 class in high school, passing with an A+ and worked my tail off to get a B in his class. If possible, get another professor for calculus!
He's an involved an honest teacher, he cares about what you learn and how you learn it.
Mr. Jones was an amazing professor. He always made class fun and engaging and he taught us how to learn statistics in a very fun way!
Great personality to be around. He will always offer a hand when in need of help. Offers different ways to attend his lectures which is cool. Overall a good professor.
Professor Jones is professional, funny and caring. If you're considering taking his class, just do it. You'll be fine as long as you attend lectures and do the homework (very beneficial). If you can't attend lectures, he has them recorded. He doesn't have office hours but he comes to class early and is very easily accessible outside class.
His lectures are straight forward and easy to follow, as he writes out the lesson on projection. He keeps an eye on the class for anyone who looks confused. He also offers extra credit in multiple forms and gives partial credit for questions you get wrong, so long as your worked showed you were on the right path and just messed something up.
After not being in school for over a decade, Mr. Jones made my learning experience fun and made me look forward to his lectures even though the subject wasn't the greatest.
He was super funny and entertainihg. Always provided explanations and tutored at MESA on weekends. Very caring and accommodating as well.
Good professor. All his lectures are recorded and posted on canvas, and he does a really good job on explaining the topics. There are more than enough resources for you to pass the class. If you put in the work, you will get a good grade. PLEASE don't procrastinate on doing the online homework. It's not fun cramming I still see numbers in my sleep.
Jones is a super good professor, especially when it comes to his willingness to help students outside of the normal classroom times. If you pay attention in lecture, and do the homework you will get an A. He's not one to throw curveballs at you on a test which is nice. All in all make sure you take a class with Jefe!
W teacher ngl
To anyone considering Professor Jones class, he does an amazing job at teaching his students. He has videos to refer back to when you're confused on lectures and has a ton of extra credit opportunities. He also does have helpful weekend office hours if you're ever stuck on a problem. I would highly suggest taking his class!
Professor Jones sets you up for success! He is a big advocate for his students. This class doesn't come easy to everyone (like me) but with effort mixed with his teaching style you can't fail! He tutors on Saturdays and stay over every class. It's an atmosphere of positivity and laughs. Best professor I've had my entire COS journey hands down !!!
Professor Jones is a great teacher! If you struggle with math he teaches it well and wants to help you succeed, he's readily available to help you. And he's funny
great professor very funny and had a good personality, all of class was lecture and there is a good amount of hw but he makes it clear he is there to help you. he is also very understanding.
Good professor to take calculus 3 with. He is a funny guy who is also caring, and has a forgiving grade policy in case you miss an exam. The material was presented clearly and it was pretty easy overall. No HW was required to be turned in.
Jones is an excellent lecturer who brings positive energy to his class and quickly creates a comfortable atmosphere. He does not require to complete the H.W, which it can be a good and bad thing, I recommend doing it in order to learn the material and A's the exams.
Would take a class with him again
Great class and professor just use the material provided to you and do your homework and you'll pass easily!
Even though this is not an online course, the professor still recorded all classes on zoom and later post them on YouTube if you missed something. Test grade count for most of the class so as long as you understand each concept being taught. You will be fine. Overall, a great professor and professor guy to be around. Would recommend.
He's a chill guy. Always willing to help out if you have questions. The material was pretty straightforward and direct.
He is chill. Replied to emailed fast even it is late. Lecture videos were up on canvas. Don't wait until the last minute to start the online homework. Gives extra credit. If you are willing to do the work you will definitely pass.
Lots of resources and very helpful, I would recommend taking his class. As long as you do the work it's almost impossible to fail.
Jefe was a great professor there was lots of module assignments but not extremely hard and you can always get help outside of class. Jefe is dedicated to helping his students definitely recommend his class for statistics
This class is definitely one that you will find easy. For this course you will need to purchase a license to a website where you will do all your work. Due dates however, aren't very strict when it comes to extra credit assignments and normal homework. Professor provides written notes, lectures, and zoom sessions. Good overall.
Took him in-person during the SUMMER. Attendance was not mandatory, and I only showed up during the first 1 1/2 weeks. During in-person lectures, he goes off topic a lot, but is good at lecturing. The midterm and Final were worth 70% of your grade, and homework was 30%. MyLab Math required; unlimited attempts on HW. Discussion Boards.
I took this class over the summer which wasn't difficult but there is quite a bit of homework. You are able to turn in any late work for full credit. All his lectures are recorded which helps a lot when you aren't able to go to his class.
I took this course based on other student's ratings on here and I was not disappointed. He's very clear and gives adequate amount of time to do the assignments. It can just feel a little much if you leave it to last minute! His lectures are so helpful and you get the grade for the effort you put in. Would definitely recommend him!
He will help as much as you need. Always available
Professor Jones was simply amazing in covering every little thing in the homework assignments during lecture! The last time I took this class with a different professor I had to drop it because I had an F due to just not understanding anything. This was by far the best and most understandable math class I've had in my life. Would highly recommend!
This was my first in person college experience after leaving the army so I was a little nervous at first, but Mr Jones was very flexible with his time and had a lot of resources available to us that made me feel like I was taken care of as long as I showed the initiative. I would definitely take another class with him again!
Another great class with Jefe! Stats is word problem heavy, but Jefe made the expectations and what to look for clear. His class structure makes attendance optional, which I took advantage of this semester, by watching his recorded lessons.
Professor Jones was a great professor, I had him for a summer Intro to Stats course, and his teaching style was very relaxed, yet very efficient. The vibe of the classroom was always very calm, despite the very fast pace, and he always made sure that everyone came to an understanding of the lecture material.
I took this class over summer, and I thought it went well. Not only is Professor Jones hilarious, he is a great teacher. He makes sure every student understands the material. There is a lot of homework, but it's not too bad. As long as you do your work and show up to class and ask questions when needed, you'll understand the material.
I took Professor Jones's class and it was amazing. He is a funny but structured instructor that is available if you ever need help. I can't suggest him enough. I took his Summer Intro to Statistics class as my first ever college class and loved it. Attendance was not mandatory, so when I got sick everything I needed was online for me.
I enjoyed this class alot! I honestly was scared because its PreCal but he makes videos & we use Aleks for homework & that also comes with explanations and videos of their own. I had a very tough semester & Prof Jefe really helped me out and extended assignments for me when I asked. He responds to emails fast, is very caring and wants you to pass!
He's a gamer (very good professor :) )
TAKE HIS CLASS SERIOUSLY, ENJOY HIS ACCESSIBILITY AND YOU WILL SUCCESS! Jone's classes are challenging because it is a hard COURSE, but his approach will make you succeed if you work with him. He has uncountable resources, free book pdf, videos, and most importantly: He has out of class accessibility so you can always have help if you want it!
I really enjoyed being in class with Professor Jones. Really, you just have to get his sense of humor. In our semester, all of the points came from five unit exams - no quizzes or graded homework. Attendance was entirely optional, and the final was just the fifth unit exam, seven questions split between two two-hour blocks of time on different days
Great professor, would definitely take again. The course was naturally difficult as it was Calc 3 but Professor Jones gives good lectures, will help you when needed, always takes time to answer questions, homework was optional for extra credit, and he is also pretty funny.
Informative but easy class, professor is very cool and always responds.
Professor “El Jefe” Jones is an amazing professor. He is completely understanding of life events and willing to work things out with you. He also takes his own time out of his life to tutor on Saturdays. You can find all his lectures online for free. I would not have passed this class otherwise. If you need help, he is always willing, just ask.
This professor was amazing in his video lectures. It was A LOT of work because I had to understand how to do the math problems but if you are good at math then this is the class to take. One of the best classes I've took so far!
Professor Jones is great at teaching and I have to say exceptionally good at breaking things down for easier comprehension.
If you want to be able to pass math, take it with Jones! His online class was the second time I've taken the class online only this time I passed! He posts all his lectures on Canvas so they're always accessible! Make sure to do homework!! You get extra credit for participating! Best math teacher ever
Just like any other online course be ready to do a lot of reading on the side, but professor Jefe is quick to respond at the given contacts in the syllabus. Other than that the uploaded lectures are clear and easy to follow, with some funny bits sprinkled in to keep your attention.
Took this course online and all I have to say was that it was great! He is exceptionally detailed with his lectures and makes a detailed list of the homework you'll have for the semester. In the beginning, it may seem like a lot but it gets easier, less heavier over time. If there was any professor to choose from, I'd choose him again :)
Did not like his personality not what I expected as teacher very sloppy and did not care about you we need more teachers who care about us unfortunately his teaching abilities re very poor
