A good, but difficult, instructor.

Ed was a great instructor and a really funny guy. He wore sandles and cargo shorts to class everyday and was really chill when people started getting confused. I would definetly recommend his course, although it is tough (I got a C when I usually get A's)

He has a grest voice, it helped me stay awake for math, he's challenging but good at explaining concepts and is also very patient.

Tests are fair and he is very funny. I enjoyed going to lecture.

he is pretty easy, as long as you do the hw..he lets you see the last years midterm...gives good expamples..always makes math fun to learn in his class.

Ed is a cool guy. He makes algebra very easy! Although I do caution to be careful on the midterm, because 35% is a big chunk of your grade. He cracks cynical and sarcastic jokes and keeps us awake. Sometimes his voice is really weird though!

Good guy, fair guy, funny guy, smart guy.

Easy class. Smart guy. Witty. The class was enjoyable.

He makes the concepts simple for everyone to understand and grasp. If you have trouble in math, he's a good teacher to have.

I never thought I would get an A in a math class but with this guys help it happened. Very chill and very helpful teacher.

THis class was way easy and the teacher was really funny. His lectures are really clear and easy to understand

VERY VERY easy..GREAT teacher. Makes the class fun. TAKE HIM!!!

Funny man!!!

I loved Ed. He was the best math teacher I have had of all time. I understod everything he was talking about, and it really got me prepared for my next math classes.

his tests were ridiculously hard. i har he is easy for math 2 but for this class....wooo! more than half the class either dropped, failed, or withdrew. he gives the worst possible questions on the tests! BEWARE!

Hands down the best math teacher I've ever had. Incredible sense of humor and an uncanny ability to connect with the line of thinking from students. Hell, probably the best of any teacher I've ever had.

He made a fool out of himself to make math as less scary as possbible, which is an unique and helpful way. His TA is fine, and lectures are very interesting.

Good teacher one of the best math teachers i have had ever.. makes class interesting by being funny.

migliore (pronounced mill-yor-ay, so you won't be caught saying his name incorrectly the entire quarter like i did) was pretty chill. hes clear most of the time and easy to approach if you have questions, but hates when people talk in class. hes also a pretty funny guy.

Umm, try and its easy. He's cool. Offer him some morning coffee sometime and money. lol :)

Ed is the only reason I ever graduated from UCSC. I took calculus 3 times and failed before taking his class, where I got an A. He made everything easy to understand and with his laid back surfer attitude and infinite patience I forgot I hated math. Best math teacher ever.

Best math teacher I've ever had. He's clear and concise. It's a pretty easy class too.

Ed is the best math teacher I've ever had. His lectures are super clear, easy to follow, and cover all the material in the book. His is open to any questions and homework load not too bad. Can't say anything bad about him and if you want a solid foundation in math take his class.

Super easy class. wasn't hard or anything and ed made it bearable.

This guy is great. Great sense of humor, totally laid-back style. He can take a complicated subject and break it down in a way that makes it relatable even to students who generally struggle with math. He isn't here every quarter, but I'd recommend him if you can get into one of his classes. Go Ed!

I cannot believe how lucky I am with Math teachers at UCSC. This guy is amazing. His lectures/syllabus are extremely organized and clear. The homework load is perfect. He is very helpful and attentive to students' needs. It actually looks like he enjoys teaching. He is also very funny. I always go to class because they are very much worth the ime.

It made math easy and almost fun. The homework load is just right and the math sessions really help to understand and apply the techniques he teaches.

He made the material even more understandable and clear than it already was; his humor kept me awake in lecture; he presents the material in an extremely organized fashion.

he wears sandals and old guys rule t-shirts, total old surfer, super relaxed and really chill. if you have up to pre calc in high school this class is cake. no big deal, the beginning half of the quarter is SUPER easy, second half gets tougher but no big deal. only bad part is that hwk is online and doesn't work on macs...only pcs.

Was disappointed in curve and grade, vague on certain topics. TA was really good, saved me on tests/HW. His 2nd midterm was friggin ridiculous and seemed to be his attempt at being difficult.

ed is awesome! for being a math class i was very entertained. He presents the material very straight forwardly. He has great quotes, you just have to listen for them.

Cool guy.

Ed kept the class interesting. He has a great sense of humor and communicated the material very effectively. I got a lot out of this class and I always thought I suck at math. I guess it just takes a teacher like Ed to make things click.

Ed is a GOOD teacher. He is funny and I think he organized the lessons very well and clearly. The sucky part of the class were the twice a week mandatory 2 hour sections. they were over-kill, however helpful. try not to get the 8am one like i did. so... don't be afraid- take math with ed!

Lecture was very clear and he did a good job of illustrating concepts with graphs and models. Section was helpful only if I was confused about something but otherwise kind of a waste of time. tests were pretty straight forward but in generel the more tricky of the types of problems were on there as opposed to more simple ones so that kind of sucked

Despite doing poorly in his class, I felt I learned a lot more than in 11A. He is for the most part a clear lecturer, and his jokes are very entertaining. However, he comes across as condescending and mildy abrasive when it comes to questions.

GREAT TEACHER!!!

Great guy. Very helpful. Easy to understand. Interesting class.

Best. Teacher. Ever. Though granted I'm pretty good at math, his tests are VERY easy. He gives out sample tests before and the real ones are just like them. He assigns homework which is very helpful in doing well. Lectures are clear, but you dont need to go to do well. Do the homework and go to class and you'll find yourself with an A.

Ed was super funny and kept his lecture entertaining.

Good teacher, I was able to understand what he was teaching.. unlike the situation I'm in NOW...

Loved Ed. Makes every math teacher I've had before this seem like they didn't prepare/didn't know what they were doing. Am excited to take 11B with him in the winter.

Great teacher. makes lectures very entertaining and easy to understand.

Migliore is probably the best professor I've had yet at UCSC. He actually made math FUN, he kept things interesting, and his expectations of his students were totally reasonable. He has a great sense of humor. Strongly recommended!!

He's a very good lecturer, very approachable, writing is a tad bit messy. If you actually listen to what he says in between all the math talk, you'll find that he cracks little jokes that keep the hour a somewhat entertaining. Very fair with tests and grading. I found this class easier than 11A.

HE IS AN AMAZONG TEACHER.... YOU NEED TO PAY ATTENTION IN CLASS AND THE EXAMS SHOULD BE PRETTY STRAIGHT FOWARD!

Entertaines you while he teaches. Clear and concise, but if you miss just one lecture, you will fall behind quickly. Midterms and Finals are pretty much spelled out for you, but you need to study none the less. Very much recommend him

Even though he told my class we were the worst he'd ever taught, I still thought he was a pretty good teacher. He was nice, but he wouldn't start lecturing until everyone was silent. His tests were fine as long as you went to lecture. Definitely the one of the better math professors I've had here.

Miglior and Baurle are possibly amongst the best math profs here. Miglior is funny, interesting, and great at explaining the material. Lectures and sections were so useful that the book was hardly necessary--> The book was a waste of money and the online hw prgram that came w/ it was not compatible w/ mac, a major pain. Otherwise a GREAT class!

Definatley the best, most understandable math teacher I have ever had. He actually made calculus really easy. DO NOT MISS CLASS, if you do you fall behind and going to class ensures that you know what you are doing. Tests were really straightfoward (if you went to class). Super entertaining and laid back guy.

Awesome professor. He's not intimidating at all and is really easy to approach to if you have any questions before or after class. Funny guy and gives amazingly clear lectures that are easy to follow. I can tell the professor genuinely cares that we understand the material. GO TO CLASS!

3 words: easy, helpful, and funny. He knows it's lecture class and understand people aren't math material, so he made it easier for people to understand in "very simple" way of explaining. And sometimes he puts on some jokes to keep people awake even the hints. HW is easy. Section are mandatory, but focus on reviews then you all set.

Clear and comprehensible; he helps me understand what is really going on.

Amazing teacher. He tells you what you need to know and and gives you losts of examples to do in class. He's straitforward. He wants you to know the math, he's not trying to torture you or pick at yourbrain. He's the best professor I've ever had the pleasure to have and he's amazingly kind.

Ed is awesome. I came into this class hating math. By the end I not only understood it, I also actually liked it. He slips in jokes during lecture and if you pay attention you'll be cracking up like i was. Also my TA Bryana is extremely hot so i never missed section :) Go to lecture and do the homework I got an A and was totally ready for math 3

An overall good calculus teacher. Funny, a little messy, but knows math. One time he did not proof read his test and screwed most of the class over, but besides that his tests were relatively easy compared to AP tests and other 19B teachers who I've heard were very hard. Math 19B is hard subject in itself but Migliore makes it wayyyy easier.

Ed is the best! He is aware if how the class is doing, and will slow down as needed. He explained things well, tests were fair, and he was usually barefoot on Fridays. Wish he were teaching 11B next quarter :(

He is very laid back. The key to doing well in his class, is go to class, and listen to his lectures. Lectures are funny, so it makes class easy to get through. Tests are fair.

He was cool. Funny guy. Let's you out early on Fridays.Tests were fair. Just study. DO HIS HOMEWORK. Homework helps you be prepared for his tests. His TA, last name Peterschmidt was a beezy. Hated her. Not useful.

He's the best math teacher I've ever had, he made me actually enjoy and understand calculus. I've never gotten an A before in math and with him I got my first. He's very clear and very simplistic; doesn't try to over-analyze math to show off how smart he is like a lot of math teachers do. Do homework, go to lec&disc and you'll do fine with him

Great teacher. Really funny. It's actually fun going to lecture because he enjoys teaching. He's happy to help. Best math teacher I've ever had.

Ed is definitely the best math teacher I've ever had. Super clear at explaining concepts. Lectures are really helpful.

Ed was a fun teacher! He put humor into math which made it less likely to hate yourself for not knowing. I disliked all of the homework but if it wasnt for the homework then i dont think i would of done good. He was a great math teacher and you should choose him!

He is seriously one the best math teacher's that I've ever had. He was very useful and extremely funny. He made math breathable. I highly suggest taking a class from him! =]

Ed is one of the best math teachers I've ever had! He makes everything easy to comprehend, even the more complicated lessons. I would definitely recommend taking a class with him!

Ed is very patient, articulate, and the way a math teacher should be: barefoot and with a ponytail! A rare down to earth approachable and nice professor.

good teacher, very clear. really liked his class.

Definitely the best Math Professor I've had yet at UCSC. He saved my ass on the Final too.

Migliore was the best math teacher I've ever had. Lecture optional but I STRONGLY recommend it because his lecture style was fabulous. All of the exam questions come from his lectures. HATE MATH loved this class, it was amazing.

very whitty.. he cool

Migliore is the teacher who changed my opinion of math. He's a good lecturer, he's clear and he doesn't lecture on a bunch of confusing math theory. He knows how people learn calculus: throw practice. All he does during class is practice problems and they're actually really helpful.

BEST PROFESSOR EVER! I am so excited to be in his class again!Had College algebra with Ed and going to have him again next quarter for Math 11B. Hated math till this teacher taught me. He makes math that seems complicated seem so simple and easy. I highly recommend those who hate math to take him. You won't regret it.

Wow. I hate math but he made things pretty clear. I did well on Midterms but failed the final and ended up with a B. If you attend all classes you'll end up with a B or better unless you really don't focus

Great guy. Really funny and keeps you entertained. Material was kind of tough but i got Cs on midterms and final and ended with a B. Rarely did the hw too, probably could of got an A. Go to section thats where i learned almost everything

Awesome professor! Always go to his lectures...he gives hints. Exams are fair. Plus he's a funny guy. He wears a shirt that says "Old guys rule." He has a distinct voice as well. :)

He's hilarious. The best thing about Ed is that he'll say, "this problem will be on the final" or something similar to that. He's very helpful. I really enjoy his class.

First off I hate math and am horrible at it. However, I passed this class with a C. That sounds bad but I haven't gotten a C in math since grade school. Great prof! Scratch that, AMAZING prof. Cuts the BS out of lecturing and gets to the point. Has a sexy (though at times odd voice). Plus even though he's an older man he is hella fine!

Great teacher IF YOU USE HIM. He is more than happy to answer questions so when you get confused SPEAK UP. You are responsible for understanding wtf is going on. It's a hard class, and his lectures are best attended AFTER reading the section from the/a book because he goes fast and assumes you understand the context completely. YOU CAN DO IT fo sho

Probably the easiest and most helpful calc teacher you are going to get. Makes lectures funny, yet stays on track. Lectures straight to the point. Discussions and lectures aren't required. Material is definitely doable. Fair amount of homework, but not difficult by any means. If you show up, do homework, and review practice exams, you will excel.

Ed Migliore is avery laid back guy which carries over to his teaching style. He assigns a lot of homework, but he prepares you for the exams well. Exams are exactly like the practice exams he supplies.

He is a very funny teacher. He goes through a lot of examples in lecture and explains things really well. The tests are pretty reasonable. He gives out study guides which are very helpful. Don't buy the book, I never used it. Homework is all online and there's a button that teaches you how to do the problems so that's very helpful. Good professor!

I don't like the subject (Calculus w/ Applications), but Migliore made it easy to learn through examples and thorough explanations. He was also very approachable. I opened the textbook maybe once or twice - not worth the money. Do homework if you want to succeed in the class.

Very good professor. kept me awake through lecture. Grading system is confusing but don't worry, do the HW,review sheets and go over your notes and you'll be fine.

Migliore set up his grading/tests to reward those who put in effort. I have terrible algebra but got a B by doing all HW and studying early and hard to get the concepts. In this class they are very forgiving on algebra as long as you can apply the concepts correctly and speak intelligently about the material. Ed is one of my favorite profs so far.

Migliore is awesome!! i actually ENJOYED going to lecture, and his practice tests were EXACTLY like the midterm/final

This guy is great fore a math prof. He answers emails, has reasonable office hours, but the best part is he gives out harder questions on the practice midterms so you know what to expect, and can do it even better on the midterm. Def take him if you can.

One of my favorite professors so far and he is actually entertaining in lecture. His midterms aren't that difficult really, his review sheets for the midterms are far more difficult. He assigns a lot of online homework though.

Great professor. His lectures were packed with information but also very clear. I wasn't sure about taking calc at first, but I ended up doing well because he's an awesome lecturer. Just go over your notes a lot for homework and tests. He's chill and has a good attitude. The TAs are iffy sometimes, so I would say go to his office hours for help.

Ed commands your attention, likes teaching, and loves math. Raised lots of kids, so won't put up with disrespect or noise. Tests were tough, and the final had some hard material that was not covered on the midterms, but was from way earlier in the quarter. But then 19B is a tough course, not really Ed's fault. If you go to lectures you should be OK

Ed is an outstanding professor who demands attention. Ed teaches both the 11 and 19 series, and he's incredibly easy for the 11 series! Yet,he's very rigorous with his 19 series students. Then again, 19 series is way more challenging than 11 series so, for those taking the 11 series, this class will be a breeze; if not then prepare for hell!

Migliore is one straight shootin cool dude. His class was totally fair, if you go to class every day, do all the homework and study (like you should in any class..) it's not too bad. 19 is hard though, a lot of people get lazy and think integrals is the end of it. you wont get off easy, it is a challenge, but a very fair class and prof in general.

A very good professor. If you do everything you are supposed to do, everything you signed up to do for this class - i.e., go to section regularly, go to all lectures, do problems from the book and all homework - you shouldn't have a problem, because Migliore tailors his exams to allow anyone who does the required amount of work to succeed.

One of my favorite professors so far, he's really engaging and passionate about the subject. He's straight forward and pretty much tells you how to do well in class, you just have to actually show up; he'll give you tips and his favorite problems. The last few weeks are challenging and whether or not you keep on it can and will define your grade.

Excellent teacher!! Don't necessarily expect to keep up with him in lecture, but scribble down your notes and look at them later and they'll be very intelligible and useful. He assigns a buttload of homework, which forces you to learn but is a major inconvienence. Overall, would definitely take more classes with him in the future.

BEST Math Teacher EVER! I had him for Math19B and again for Math22. He assigns A LOT of homework, but he makes it worth it towards your grade. HW is around 20 - 25% of your grade depending on which class you take with him. Math22 with him this quarter was great! He's funny, laid back, and fair with grading. You NEED TO study if you want an A! :)

The class is totally doable if you pay attention and dont yell UP at him, hes a little slow on the uptake with note placement sometimes. He is kinda a meany if you ask a stupid question, but remember kids there are no stupid questions, only stupid people. But really, great teacher and cool guy. Straight forward exams.

Best math teacher at UCSC. Had him for 19B and 22. Uses a lot of examples to make sure you understand concepts and how to solve types of equations. Doing homework is a must, both for huge chunk of credit and solidifies your understanding.

Great math teacher. I had him for 11a and 11b and he's awesome.

He is a funny straightforward guy. Enjoyable. Tests are hard. He only gave practice test for the first midterm and some practice problems for the second one and the final. The practice problems were not helpful! Curves not so great. Class is hard!

Goes through examples to help you understand tests. Straight-forward dude. Tests are harder than practice exams, but that's expected. No final review given. Watch out, he doesn't like cheaters; he will fail you.

He likes to keep it simple, and if you listen to him during lecture, you'll have a good understanding of the material, but you'll still need to do problems to prepare for tests.

Migliore is very down-to-earth and a decent lecturer. He walks the class through examples that are very similar to his tests. Exams are very straightforward if you do the homework well. Homework is not overwhelming.

Not an easy class, but if you work hard it is doable. I found him to be an entertaining guy. Lectures are of good quality and he wants you to understand the material rather then memorize formulas.

He's a decent lecturer. Tests aren't too hard as long as you do the practice exams, but they still aren't truly that easy either. He grades on a bit of a curve, so at the end, he adjusts the grades pretty nicely. It isn't too hard to pass his class.

He knows his stuff, he explains it as if it's easy, but still thoroughly. Homework is irritating, but tests were fair and close to the practice tests. Overall a good teacher. Better than Eastman.

at first his lectures seem pointless after you try to do the homework alone, but if you really listen to him he makes sense. his ta's were great and he was funny and enthusiastic about teaching. great experience.

While Professor Migliore is a decent lecturer and his tests are clear/fair, I couldn't stand his snarky comments. I think he's pretty disrespectful to students, especially those in 11A, but I guess if you can put up with that sense of humor/negativity you'll be fine.

Ed was great at clearly explaining concepts and going through steps to make everything understandable. He's hilarious if you actually understand and appreciate his humor. He's a no BS guy and some students are intimidated by that but I thought he was great and SO much better than my Math 3 professor, Berman. Do your homework/attend sections.

Take him for 11A! He explains math in a clear and easy way to understand. I like that he gets straight to the point and doesn't waste time on the little details that confuse people. HW is optional but I would still do it. His midterm was really easy and the final was hard, but doable as long as you really knew the stuff. Great professor!

Go. To. Class. I don't think I can stress this enough. I was lost at the end of the quarter because I skipped and had to learn everything by myself. Personally speaking, Migliore seemed like a nice guy and seemed open to discuss grades and material with students. Obviously if you struggle with math this class will be no different. But Ed's great.

Ed is probably one of the most awesome Math teachers in the whole department. If you pay attention and take notes, the class is pretty easy. His exams are also very straightforward.

He's very knowledgable but sometimes expects you to grasp the info immediately. Show up to class. It'll be worth it. Huge curve for less ambitious students. If you're striving for an A, it'll be tougher for you than for someone on the D's to get to a C. He's alright.

This teacher saved my interest in math. Explains things really well, tries to make the tests relatively easy; he's just checking for what you know. Go to lecture and go to section, you'll understand the material. Also he's funny and I think he's the bomb.

I didn't take math for two years and jumped back into it with this course, so I struggled at the start. On tests, the answers are not as important as the work. Forgetting small details can make you lose points easily. Once I figured that out, I was able to ace the final, so it's not that bad. Tests are straightforward and don't stress about proofs.

Easiest math class I've taken thus far. Migliore doesn't waste time and is good at answering questions. My biggest problem with the course was that it was so easy and formulaic that it was hard to remind myself to do the work. The textbook he assigns can teach you everything you need to know without once showing up for lecture.

Good professor. I had him for Math 23B and Math 21. He can seem a little disorganized but his lectures are clear. His tests are not all that hard if you understand the ideas. He's always happy to answer questions. He was especially enthusiastic towards the end of the quarter for 21 when we were getting to the cool ideas like abstract vector spaces.

Be careful when answering a math problem out-loud during his lectures, he can make students feel bad if they get the answer wrong. His tests are very manageable. Generous, even. There won't be that many problems, so you'll have plenty of time to finish at your own pace. If you failed your midterm but passed the final, you can still pass the class.

He goes really fast in this class and pushes you in the homework. His lectures do cover what's on the homework but it's not any easier. It doesn't help that he covers the hardest sections last so you have less time to learn it. His grading system is unclear and you don't know your grade until the end. Midterm and final is curved if needed.

Migliore is the professor who you want to respect. Few things to keep in mind: his handwriting is not the best, his lectures are a little bit unorganized, and the homework is really difficult. I am not a math genius so I spent a lot of time studying and got the grade I wanted. Take this class if you really want to learn.

Midterm and Final were extremely straightforward. Just go to class and you will do fine!

Professor Migliore is humorous and explains concepts well. The class is mostly slow notes and solving problems, giving students time to digest the material. While he complicates some explanations, he does a great job in simplifying problems. His tests are not difficult, especially if you attend class and do the homework. I really enjoyed his class!

Go to class, do his study guides, do the homework where you actually understand it and not because you want it to get it done. His test are straightforward.

Hated that the class was at 8 AM. Sometimes, his explanations and proves of formulas are confusing, but the example that he give are extremely helpful. Those examples are so similar to the problems on tests. Got an A- on midterm and final. His curves depending on test averages are around 88% an A, 77% a B, 65% C. If thats not good, then...

Fantastic professor. Curves a lot for exams and overall grade. I enjoyed his teaching style despite his writing skills. I know many students don't like to go to office hours but that is what saved me this quarter.

Migliore is great. His lectures can get confusing at times since he likes to show proofs for everything. Definitely recommend MSI and attending section. Midterm was straight forward and super easy; the final was a little more difficult. Overall is a great professor though. He makes awesome sassy comments in class too.

This was my second time taking Math 11A, my first being with Eastman. I 100000% recommend taking Migliore's class over Eastman. He is a very clear lecturer and provides useful examples. He also provides study guides for the midterm and final that were extremely helpful. Make sure you do these and go to section!!

Easy class for an essay A, my high school calculus test were harder than his midterm and final. Study and pay attention it's an easy A.

Ed has a very specific teaching style and demeanor, that really works for some students and really doesn't for others. I found him really easy to understand and funny, and he's also very easily accessible outside of class. His grading on the tests is a little nit-picky but it's clear what he's looking for too. If you do what he asks, you'll be fine

Easiest Class

This calculus class is easy IF you PAY ATTENTION & have a good TRIG& ALGEBRA background. His midterm &final are mostly out of the notes & study guide. PAY ATTENTION when he says "This would be a good exam question" there is a high chance it'll be on the test. Does a lot of practice questions for you to know the topic. You also have to put in effort

Had him two times for both 11A and 11B, hated him the first time, liked him somewhat the second time. I seriously wouldn't have passed these classes if it wasn't for the TAs. The exams aren't necessarily hard, but he makes it hard because of his extreme harsh grading method. TRIPLE CHECK YOUR WORK BECAUSE EVERY LITTLE DETAIL MATTERS. He's funny tho

Lectures are very dry but as long as you study from his study guide (midterm and final), you should have a solid chance of passing.

He may not be the most interesting professor, but he clearly states what he expects on the midterm/final. Has terrible writing (chicken scratch writing) but he is such a sweet soul.

Ed teaches expecting you to have a good background in trig and pre calc. If you struggle with understanding math of course calculus is going to be hard.. which may make his lectures seem confusing if you're not paying full attention or putting barely any effort in. Do the homework and put his test reviews to good use and you'll be fine

Migliore is a very solid choice when choosing a math professor at UCSC, his lectures are clear and concise and his tests wont leave you reeling. That being said, he will still give ample homework and follows the same teaching/grading system he has been for years.

Migliore's lectures are dry, but he provides the resources you need to pass his class. I was able to get a C from only doing his practice midterm/final. If you want to get an A/B, make sure you understand the lectures and redo the hw repeatedly. My mistake was that I did not attend any class other than day 1, and the day of the midterm/Final.

Ed was a pretty solid lecturer first half of class. After the first midterm, it's integral applications, which are obscure and he tails off and goes on tangents during lectures. The first midterm is really easy. The final is really hard, but not impossible. Check the coursehero for hard examples and pickup as many section/hw points as you can.

Ed is a good lecturer and all of his exams were FAIR. He didn't put anything on there that he doesn't have on the practice midterms and finals. I've never taken a calculus class before this one and I managed to get an A+ with a bit of work. If you have trouble with the class go to MSI or office hours.

In class examples are usually on the test. Everything is crystal clear and Ed will grade fairly

Ed cares more that his students come to understand the basic concepts of calculus than anything. His tests are very fair. Tests emphasize on the concepts more than testing your algebra skills (though this is very important too). Read the book or go to class, you'll do fine. Do both, you'll do great.

One of the better Math professors on campus. He sometimes is intimidating in class but is known to be very focused and kind one on one. He really cares that you understand the subject and improve over the quarter, so if you do terrible on the midterm but pass/show improvement on the final, you should pass if you've completed hw and gone to section.

I wouldn't have passed this class if I didn't take calculus in high school. Ed is a great guy and a solid teacher, but his lectures are kinda boring. Section attendance is mandatory and the tests are completely free-response.

Bless Ed. He's a good guy lecturing a class of 400. Because of this, though, homework is through WebAssign, and questions are through Piazza. There's usually at least two assignments per week, with an average of 20 questions each. Make sure you remember EVERYTHING, from this class and from pre-calc -- you never know what will come in handy.

Great lecturer, but you really have to show up to lectures and pay attention to get anything out of the class. Doesn't post lectures online, and usually only answers questions from the front section. Gives fair tests and doesn't curve.

Be Optimistic. I made several mistakes in the easy midterm but earned a very high grade in the relatively hard final. Work hard. Good Luck!

A very good teacher. His classes are always full of laugh. A little bit fast on lecture but you can catch up at the discussion section. Homework is harder but not too much. But exams really worth a lot. The good thing is he only tests those basic cases instead of special ones.

Ed is a really cool guy. Although the material can be quite difficult, his lectures are pretty clear and hell make you laugh from time to time. His grading is pretty straight forward, just make sure you go to class and do the work.

Despite his dreadful handwriting, Migliore is overall a good professor. For Fall 2018, we used WebAssign to do the homework and could ask questions about the homework/course on Piazza. The breakdown will likely be 45% Final, 40% Midterm, 10% Homework, & 5% Participation (Aka Attending Section). Doesn't like curves, but will do it if necessary.

I really enjoyed Ed Migliore, its a shame he got into a traffic accident halfway through the quarter and that affected a lot of students. His lectures are clear and concise with plenty of examples so you will understand what hes teaching. Homeworks are tough and not something you can finish in one night (atleast for me) so start on it early.

Ed's teaching style is essentially showing rather difficult concepts during lecture, medium difficulty questions on homework (do the homework it really helps) and medium questions on the exams. I found his auditory-teaching style enjoyable but understand its not for everyone. Respected and pretty entertaining prof.

Took this course online and only watched the recorded lectures and it wasnt bad. I am good at math so i understand how this class can be difficult to others BUT he wants you to watch the recorded lectures then go to class with questions for clarification which i thought was cool. He also has a lot of dry humor jokes which i loved, cool prof tho :)

Professor was a good manhe always answer our questions in discuss group. Howeverhis class is more independentmuch of the self learning materials. But if you finished all HWs and practicesyou will get a good grade on his class.

Overall, a very well run course - content was of moderate difficulty but that's what you should expect if you're taking a vector calc course. Biweekly quizzes and weekly readings/homework assignments. The midterm was similar to all the quizzes but the final took me by surprise. Half of the final covered theory which was a bit difficult and new.

Ed provides a very good introduction to calculus. He structures his curriculum so you don't get overwhelmed. Very encouraging, very communicative. Don't procrastinate, and you'll be fine.

Took him for Math 19b and it was fairly easy. The written hw was kind of difficult but its only worth 6% of your grade so if you don't do well its not that big of a deal.

Always take online math, really easy class if you do the homework on time. The quizzes are the same questions from the homework and the final and mid-term. Amazing professor, i guess.

Pretty easy math course as long as you stay on top of work. Very predictable and consistent structure throughout with no surprises. Profs were fairly hands off but were there if you needed them.

This class was online and asynchronous, so there isn't much about the professor as a teacher, but his class was easy. There was a lot of work, since I had to teach myself the concepts, but everything is online and the tests and exams are not proctored. There are some assignments where work is required and you need to submit a pdf of homework.

Online class, the professor pretty much isn't a presence, but the video lectures are helpful and generally cover everything you need to know, with good examples. Tests and quizzes are almost identical to the homework, and pretty sparse. Very manageable class, just make sure to not save everything till the last minute.

Professor Migliore was involved in the class only as the voice of pre-recorded lectures, in which he did a good job. Overall the class was challenging at times, but due to the online nature of the work was not too bad. The online format was difficult to motivate around, but it's not a bad way to just knock out the credit.

Homework doesn't take long and the professor is pretty chilll.

The 19a,19b, and 23a classes are all in the same format. Everything is on Achieve with weekly hw, 4 quizzes, and exams hosted on there, plus 3 written HWs which can be tricky but only are 6% of your grade. Little interaction with prof, but TAs on piazza are helpful. Good class if you self-teach and just want credit, bad for deep learning.

Homework and material was all online, easy A if you just did the work, the exams were exactly like the Homeworks and review, including midterm and final exam. If you ever need help, there are TAs that have ample sections, or you can just watch youtube.
