College Algebra is understandably difficult, especially online. However, I expected help from the teacher.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

He always gives a key sheet on all the exams with equations, and he lets you use them on the test as well!

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!
