Was a very hard class, but he did a good job teaching it i have always been good at math but felt overwelmed with the homework in the class and the test were pretty hard too but he did give a generic test review.
Very cool teacher. He explains things very well and will continue to explain until the information is learned. He is very helpful and makes everything seem extremely easy.
Great professor. Great teacher.
I had such a good time in this class. I was so nervous about taking it, but he is an excellent teacher. I recommend him to lots of people. He tells you exactly what problems will be on your test and the final is comprised of all your test questions.
He was easy to understand and wrote everything you needed to know on the board for easy notetaking. He went over everything on the test before you took it and nothing other than that was on the test. In my opinion he was great. Plus he was went to Texas A&M so that's good
Very helpful, prepared to spend time if you need it, clearly explains ideas and adapts if he thinks the class needs things explained differently
this guy isn't a bad professor...just not that great either...
He gives great notes and examples. He explains concepts great and knows what he is taking about. Homework and quizzes are all on the computer. Great teacher!
I think that he is a good teacher. Very clear and explains every detail. Does not leave you behind.
He really tries to make you understand and does not belittle his students. He will answer pretty much any question you have. Very good. Would definately recommend.
The only bad thing about Mr. Quarles are his tests. each test has less than 10 questions on it throughout the semester but the final is multiple choice. Other than that, he's a great prof, willing to help and makes math better than what it's usually like.
Doesn't really give detailed explanations, and in math, thats not good!!
A very helpful professor. If you're unsure about how to work a problem, he takes time to explain it. His tests are actually not that hard. There are only 4 test but each problem counts a lot (the 4th test only has 6 questions). Try to get 100's on homeworks and quizzes because it helps a lot.
I really enjoyed his class. He was very helpful. If you had questions, he would make sure they got answered. He would work a problem over and over if you needed him to. Very humerous. I would definately recommend him if you need a math class.
He's a very good teacher. He understands the material he's teaching and answers any questions you might have. I'm a math retard and I did well in the class. if you just show up to class and try you'll do well. he's good about giving extra credit on tests.
Great Teacher. If you are terrible at math, this guy is the perfect teacher for you. He explains VERY well and is a wonderful person. I highly highly recommend him!
Awesome professor. Had taken the class 2 times before and am convinced I passed FINALLY because of his teaching
Fun teacher! Explains material really well. Likes to break things down to make sure the students get it. Very organized in his teachings as well. Make sure to do the homework. It's never due but it really prepares you for his tests. Final consists of random questions from your previous tests. Gives a 5 point bonus question for every exam.
I found him to be very boring and monotone. I love math, always have, but he made it so dull that I never showed up to class. It was miraculous to see anyone in class the few times I did attend. I do NOT recommend him if you dislike math in any way, and even if you do like math, I still recommend against it.
Awesome Teacher! I will continue taking College Algebra from him next semester. I got a C because I really just did not apply myself, but it was really an easy class if you just complete the homework and the outcomes. I will recommend to everyone.
Wow, there's alot of mixed reviews here. Mr Quarles is a really nice guy and he explains everything well. My only problem is that he doesnt give any study guids, extra credit, or curves. He is good for smart-lazy people but bad for dumb-hardworking people...... like me :)
So Easy, I'm horrible at math and I even got by. He is very clear! No book needed, just the software.
Nice guy, has lots of storys. But, I didn't like that he doesn't give out reviews before a test which I really need cuz I'm horrible in mad. Also he never asks if anyone has any questions on the homework.
WOW! he is def. NOT monotone, has great stories, very clear on what he teaches. He constantly asks if anyone has ANY questions and encourages people to speak up. Am taking him again in the summer 0310. Wouldn't recommend ANYONE ELSE!
By far, the best math professor I've ever had. He teaches extremely well, his examples are on target, if you don't understand just ask, lets you know what types of problems are gonna be on the test. Uses point system grading. Funny, has great stories, A&M Alumni, book not needed, just Course Compass to do HW on, no quizzes just tests & cumm. final.
Very well educated and is easy to understand overall but if u don't grasp one concept, OH WELL cuz his class goes very fast and there's only one question per concept on the test. Funny stories and nice guy but not very one-on-one. If Algebra comes easy for you, TAKE HIM but if not, he may not be ur best choice.
I would recommend him to everyone.. he is really good at explaining... and went back to expain what he did numorus times with no issue.. attendence is not an issue. and he put tests in the testing center when i couldn't make it..
Prof. Quarles is a very cool and laid back guy, he knows his stuff and explains extremly well, we will understand if you missed something or have to make up something. Reviews all the tests one class before taking it. RECOMENDED
He is by far the best Math teacher I have had. I hate math and got an A in his class! Explains very well, and he is very educated and has a story for everything!!
GOOD AT TEACHING EXPLAINS WELL GREAT REVIEW(VERBAL) QUESTIONS SIMPLE FUN AND INTERESTING
Quarles is a great math teacher. He explains everything in an easy to understand step-by-step manner. HW is not mandatory in this class; it's optional. Tests are easy.
The Best!!!!! That is all you need to know!!!!
Awesome teacher he is the best at what he does not only does he know his stuff but he explains it very well Love his class if i could take him for all my math classes i would
This guy knows his stuff, if you can't learn from Mr. Quarles then you need help. He takes the time to explain everything in depth and always asks to ake sure everyone in the room understands. He is super nice and pretty understanding, the homework was mandatory in my class but the tests were easy as long as you studied and understood the material.
Best math teacher i've ever had! Goes into detail on how math is used in everyday life and also explains clearly how problems are worked out. I would definitely take a class from him again!
awesome teacher! if you pay attention in class you will do great on tests! i did homework the night before as a "study mechanism" and it helped a lot. test questions come straight from your notes! easy, fun, and great class! take him!
Great professor! i usually strugle and have a very hard tim passing a math class with a c or above but this class was great. tests were exactly as how they appear on the reviews and there was alot of homework but they were a lot of help for the test review. Plus he is a very friendly and funny but professionl guy I would definetly take again. I got
I like this professor and wish I had more math teachers like him. The class layout is simple, he gives the notes, you do the homework, then quizzes and tests on the homework. He also tells great stories, (anecdotes about his kids and life). And is just fun to listen to. I highly recommend this teacher.
Definitiely the best math teacher i've had! He explained everything very clearly and used several examples. A real nice guy and fun to listen teach. The reviews really prepared me for tests. Highly recommend!
This dude is the bomb. Goes through each lesson, doing every example and answering any questions you have. Tells you exactly whats on the test. Four tests and a final with questions from previous tests. Homework is online which is pretty easy. By far the best math teacher i have very had. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
Very awesome teacher. Explains things in a way that's easy to understand. I only needed the textbook for the sake of doing the homework online.
Great teacher. Very helpful. Will take him again.
I took this professor for both 1314 and 1316, and was dissapointed when I found out he was not teaching precal the next semester. EXCELLENT TEACHER!! I would definitely take him again and recommend him for everyone else. He gives lots of examples and explains what hes doing as he does it. Hes very nice and is very open to questions. TAKE HIS CLASS!
Great teacher. Extremely helpful. I will definitely try to take him for every math class I need to take.
Wonderful math teacher! His reviews are extremely helpful for the tests. He gives great notes and examples. I would highly recommend Mr.Quarles, smart guy!!If your anxious about math, like I was, he has a calm approach to the subject which makes you feel at ease.
He is a great professor to take for College Algebra. He is really funny and definitely doesn't make Math seem extra hard. If you do the reviews for the exam you will definitely make an A on his exams. Watch out for the Final exam, study! He is helpful and goes over everything. Take notes and do the homework and you will be fine! Recommend him!!
Prof Quarles is an excellent professor he explains everything in simple easily laid out terms. Follow his queue on how to work the problems and you'll get it really easily he makes math simple.
Great professor. Nothing is ever easy about math but Professor Quarels makes his lectures as interesting as they can be and is there to help you if you need it. Tutoring at Lonestar blows all the way around so a helpful teacher is a must.
College Algebra is understandably difficult, especially online. However, I expected help from the teacher. When I explained the efforts I was trying and still struggling with, his only response was, "I don't give makeups and there's no extra credit." Useless at helping to "get" concepts! Don't take this class unless you already know algebra.
he is a great teacher if you want an A easily take his class
This guy is the bomb!! He truly loves math and can actually teach it unlike others. He writes everything up on the board and will not hesitate to explain in detail any question you have. 4 exams, review he gives is exactly whats on exams, final is multi choice. mymathlab for HW, no book required. Will be taking again next semester, super excited!
Took online which is not easy for anyone. I did not find him very helpful. He does not allow extra credit or make ups. If you can do math, go for it. But if you are not a math person...stay away!!
Funny, if you enjoy broad humor. good piece of homework, which is significantly harder than any of his tests. other than that fairly good guy, understanding and was a good class, for being calculus I.
He is one of my all time favorite professors!! He is extremely smart and will help you with almost anything you dont understand if you ask him. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
Took Quarles for Calculus in the Fall. Very funny guy. Received a B in the class. He makes the material as easy as possible and is available after class or during office hours for any questions. The class does require homework assignments in MyMathLab. Exams are about 20 points each. If you do the homework and study you have no problem passing.
He makes calculus about as fun as it can be. He is a funny, clear and helpful professor. Liked talking to him outside of class, too. He is the one of the only professors at Lone Star that I felt was intelligent enough to teach other people. Great guy. I would definitely recomend taking him. Except MyMathLan, fun, easy class.
TAKE HIM! You will not regret! Just make sure you pay attention and come to class. Each class contains important info. His test are exactly like his reviews that are founded online. He is such an awesome teacher and an awesome person. I currently have an A!
You don't need a textbook for this class, just the math lab code. Professor quarles loves math with a passion. He could stand up there and teach it all day and he's good at it. He knows what he's talking about and is really good about breaking everything down. His reviews are online and just like the test! Excellent professor!
This has been my 3rd class with Professor Quarles. I love his teaching style and I'm truly sad that I will not have anymore classes with him. He will teach you everything you need to know and you will do fine on the 3 exams (in class) and 4 quizzes (take home). HW is optional which is nice. I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone!! He loves what he does!
Awesome professor. Very specific and clear. One feels attracted to study engineering.
Took him for Intro to Engineering. Fun class and fun activities though there were a few "what exactly are we supposed to do again?" moments. He just needs to give a little more direction sometimes. Can't wait to take future engineering classes with him. Also made some new friends in his class.
Best professor I have ever taken. He is super clear and teaches very clearly. I took him for statics, never did homework or studied and aced all the tests just from paying attention to him in class. Take him!
If you have the oportunity to take a class with Professor Quarles, I highly recommend that you do so. He is a humble guy who goes out of his way to help student. Don't be fooled though, He is way smarter than he lets on. Although he is a bit lenient with his attendance policy, missing class will mean missing material so don't do it.
He has the ability to make you come out of the class knowing a lot about the material but you will feel like the class was a breeze throughout the semester. great teaching style!
Since it was an engineering class, I figured it would be hard, but it wasn't. There were only two tests and a few assignments/projects. You have to actually know the material, but the material isn't hard. If it weren't for one person in my group screwing up an in class project, I would have gotten a 100 in this class.
Math has never been my strong suit, but Mr. Quarles is such a great teacher, he explains things in detail and helps you out when you're struggling. He's loves math so much & gets excited when he's teaching, its adorable. So far his tests are very clear, he tells you what to expect and always willing to help. Best math teacher I have ever had!
AutoCAD & Inventor are super easy to understand, and David has no problems helping you with whatever. He isn't high on his own stink and is perfectly happy learning new things that he didn't know before. Didn't mind helping with other class Math work either. Crazy funny guy.
Very smart teacher, but he often lectures to fast and our reviews for tests were not helpful especially with the final the review for it was all of our old tests.
Hes such a good teacher and explains things very well, math has never been my strong suite but with him I got an A in every test and on the final. He tells you what to expect for the exams, people who complain about him, dont do the work or study and still expect an A. Hes really passionate about the subject & gets excited when he teaches.
Professor Quarles is one of the best math teacher I've ever had. He teaches everything you need to know for the test. There is no extra credit opportunities, lots of online homework however, it is VERY doable. Me and everyone I sit around always get As on their tests. He makes everything very easy and explains every step of the way.
If math is not your strongest suit I would beware, but other than that Mr. Quarles is a solid choice for those who enjoy and are good with math. He does lecture every day so it is a very fast paced class. He gives out reviews but just stick to you notes and you will be good for tests. There is weekly online homework but it is doable. Overall good.
Professor Quarles is a great professor! He made the classes very enjoyable and always had a story or joke ready to make you laugh. As long as you keep up with the homework and study, you'll get a good grade in the class. I would recommend taking him for someone who struggles with math.
Professor Quarles is very good at explaining anything that you do not understand. He writes out all the problems on the board and shows every step. Make sure to do all of your MyLabsPlus (do not wait until end of semester). You can tell that he enjoys his job and is there because he wants to be. I definitely recommend him for College Algebra.
I really enjoyed this professor and class. Hes a really nice guy and is understanding. As long as you pay attention to the lessons and ask questions if unsure, you will do fine. Tests are short and easy for the most part. Attendance isnt mandatory but should show up to not miss information.
Math has never been my strongest class. This teacher is probably one of the best. Caring. Excellent at teaching.
Professor Quarles was amazing. He explains the material very well and is passionate about math. His study guides are very similar to the test. He gives partial on tests if you show work. He was one of the best math teachers I have ever had.
Took Mr. Quarles Spring 2019 semester. Great Math teacher. Clearly explains how to do the work. Not applying yourself will fail you. Plenty of homework, but beneficial to understand the concepts. 4 tests and a final. Everything is explained in the lectures, so try your best not to miss class. He's chill and passionate about math. I recommend him.
I had Prof. Quarles for Math 1314, and hes the best math teacher I got so far. Hes quite chill and passionate about Math. Definitely, I would recommend him. I wish I had him as my Calculus professor.
I'm not a math person, but Prof Quarles made lectures very clear and easy to understand. He has a good sense of humor and makes lectures amusing. Exams are only a few questions long since they're lengthy to solve but there's always a bonus question. HW and practice exams are on mymathlab, and you can go on there to get HW help. No book needed
love him! super great professor and teaches so clear. answers all questions and will help you hands on after class if needed. Tests have few questions that are straight forward but have math homework on mymathlabs. he's super funny and would recommend him
BEST COLLEGE ALGEBRA TEACHER! He writes everything on the board you need to know for the test, gives examples. Provides a review for the test. Test are around 11 question, not multiple choice. You have to know how to solve the problems step by step. KEEP YOUR TEST you will use it as a review for the final.
I took this class a second attempt in an online environment due to my schedule and kids. Professor gives lots of Homework and 2 attempts to take the test in a testing center. The professor does look at the test and will add points to the test if he needs to. The professor does care, but would like his students to put forth the effort. I passed!
seriously the best, very understandable will help prepare for tests and will work and make sure the tests work for you
Great teacher, just be sure to be at class
I liked Prof Quarles' class! Once every lecture, he threw in an interesting, hilarious story that I got very excited for. He teaches well, but many times I'd find myself re-learning it by myself at home. He is very helpful when asked for help. Mymathlab generates a lot of heavy, unnecessary homework. Tests are difficult & important, so study a lot.
All homework and tests are done through mymathlab. Unlimited opportunities to get a 100 on every homework assignment. Study for the tests and you'll do fine. He responds to emails quickly and sends reminders about tests.
Awesome professor! Always did his best to explain every unit thoroughly. Would definitely take again.
Only saw him once a week bc of COVID but his in-person lectures were great! He mainly did his homework, quizzes, & exams through MyMathLab (gotta pay for). I didn't really use the textbook, but the MathLab is really helpful. Exams & assignments aren't proctored. He cares about math. I've tried taking algebra and he's the best professor I've had
Pretty easy class since it's basically the same algebra you learn probably in 8th grade and through high school. He's a good teacher and fairly responsive to emails. The only work we really had to do was whatever assignments was on MyMathLab. It can be a lot, but you have the "etext" as well as his lectures to guide you.
Professor Quarles was such an awesome teacher! He explains everything in such detail, but in a way that doesn't make you feel overwhelmed! He makes sure you understand the problems before moving on to the next question. He does a chapter a day so if you miss class it might take you a minute to catch up. BEST MATH PROFESSOR I'VE EVER HAD!
This professor is great for an online platform. Initially, his homework calendar was very intimidating but it keeps you on track. If you stick with his timeline you will not have homework on the weekends. He gives you a test review. DO THE REVIEW! There isn't anything on the test that is not on the review! No lock down or camera required.
Love him, amazing teacher, open to questions, and very helpful. Homeworks are in MylabMath, so you do have to buy that. He is really good at explaining and he's funny.
Professor David Quarles is great! There is no way to fail this class, there are multiple attempts allowed on all assignments, quizzes and even tests. He is amazing and I am happy to have chosen this course with him. I look forward to another class with him, I hope that he is in the other math courses that I need.
Mr. Quarles encourages participation and always answers questions, and you can tell that he loves his subject. Tests are online and open for 4 days; I did have a situation where I wasn't able to take a test because I got sick on the last day it was open. I contacted him and he did not reopen it. Other than that, you'll get a lot out of his class.
Professor Quarles was amazing! He is clear, precise, and will let you know specifically will be on tests in advance. Multiple attempts on all HW through mylabmath and tests are 10-15 questions. The only reason I got a C was because I did not show up as often as I should have, so make sure you go to class, especially with professor Quarles!
I really liked this professor. I took him for the fall semester, everything was through MyMathLab. There was I believe around 20-30 homework, 4 test, and a final. The professor was always accessible, and if I had an issue he would email me back within the same day.
Great professor. Very understanding. Reopened a test for me when I thought it was on a different day. Was pretty difficult for me because I'm bad at math, but he gives extra points if you write out the work properly. Just do the lessons to 100% and make at least and 80 on all the tests and you'll get an A.
Loved him as a professor. If you ever have trouble understanding something he's accessible and happy to help! Exams are 9-12 questions and require you to solve step-by-step. There are around 30 mylab hw assignments but you get unlimited reattempts. Attendance isnt mandatory but if you don't show up you'll be missing a lot of info.
He is really a good math teacher. The math test is quite easy for me.
Amazing professor. He's pretty monotone, so grab your coffee or energy drink on your way to class! Great at teaching, smooth lectures that give you everything you need to know. A very forgiving grader on tests, gives you opportunities to make up lost points. Always take Quarles, enroll fast, his classes seem to fill up quick!
There is lots of homework and no thorough test reviews. He explains what he teaches well. Not for me, but he is a good professor.
There are 4 tests + final. There is lots of HW but unlimited attempts, he uses MyMathLabs. Will go over what you should study for test. offered extra credit on first test, and curved another. He will give partial credit if you showed some work on the tests. His voice is kind of monotone, but he tries to make the class as interesting as possible!
He gave clear lectures. There were four tests and one final exam. Every chapter has online homework, but there is no deadline before the final test. An A will be yours if you do well on the test. He doesn't give extra credits. He just gave you back your first test and let you correct it. You can get haft credit of every questions (Only one time)
Great. Take him. Will not regret. Quirky math teacher fr
This guy is the best. He's super friendly and approachable. He makes a lot of jokes and make class fun. His lectures are easy to follow and as long as you do the homework around the recommended time you should do fine on the exams. Exams are on paper and are short which makes things a lot easier. Overall, one of my favorite profs I've had.
He is a phenomenal teacher and he gives your plenty of time to complete homework. He explains what tests will cover and will go over problems in class if you do not understand something. I went to the Tutoring Center almost every day and I am glad that I did well in his class; but I do not know if LSC is preparing us well for undergrad or grad sch.
Best professor I've had in Lone Star College so far. I was scared of math before taking his class, but he explains everything very clearly and thoroughly. Plus he's super nice, positive, and cool. 10/10. Don't forget it is math and you do need to be prepared for lots of formulas and stuff. But ultimately, DO TAKE HIS CLASS.
wouldn't recommend
Good professor, gives clear guidelines for the class and is very enthusiastic about what he teaches. Very personable, a good lecturer. The actual concepts can be very complex and difficult depending on your prior experience, but he posts large study guides for all tests. A very quick grader, on top of things. Class does cover a lot of material.
Professor Quarles is AMAZING, originally, I had another professor for this class, but he quit, and we got him, and I am so glad we did. He always gives a key sheet on all the exams with equations, and he lets you use them on the test as well! An amazing person who obviously cares for his students and wants them to understand and pass the class.
Professor Quarles is a great teacher - he explains concepts clearly and is generous with points. Using unstuck AI along with the textbook really helped me succeed in the class. It's doable if you stay engaged.
I was very nervous about taking trigonometry, but I took his class during the fall semester, and it went very well. Tests are relatively easy as long as you study, for tests, he tries to show what you need to study. The homework is very annoying and costly to buy, but you can get 100s on each of the homework assignments-HW is harder than the tests.
Took Prof. Quarles for college algebra and he really is great. He tells you EXACTLY what you will see on the test, has very straight-forward class content, and obviously is passionate about his job. His lectures are a little boring, but he simplifies and explains topics very well and loves questions. If you need slow, simple explanations, take him!
