Some students don't like him because the level of the professor is above those dumb students. You come to class, you excel in the course. There is no better professor than him in the college. Just take his notes and you will definitely get A+ in the course.

He is one of the best professors I've ever had. He is very knowledgeable and dominant on the material. If you always show up to his lectures and make notes of every example he does in class you can easily get an A+ in this course. He is also very caring and helpful even after the class if you face difficulties doing a question he'll be there.

If you can stand his jokes, which a lot of the time I didn't find funny, he is the teacher to choose. There is no better teacher for QNM222/444. Although he didn't post much on the online Blackboard system, if you can do the practice tests he posts, you should be fine for the test. Also, he cares about his students understanding the material.

Professor Sutherland is really a good professor. his lecture is helpful and he takes responsibility for his course and he knows his stuff. But, i learned a lot from his general tips and life advice rather than a course. if you show up his class and do his homework, you should be walked away an easy A

Floyd really cares about his students. He wants everyone to understand what he teaches but when you ask him questions, he gets mad and expects you that you should have understood the lecture. He gets angry when his students are not doing homework(understandable), take pictures of the notes he wrote on the board, and miss his class.

I don't know if he is not a good prof. or the course itself doesn't make any sense. he explains everything very fast and his hand writing is bad too, so if English is not your mother tongue, then you'll have problems. if you attend every class and listen carefully to him and do all the homework, you might be ok and get a B or something similar.

Floyd thinks he's funny, so his classes include a lot of cringe humor. I didn't enjoy him much as a person TBH. However, he is a really good professor. He teaches his course well and cares about students understanding every bit of the info. He makes statistics simple. Went from a C+ in QNM2222 to an A in big part to his teaching.

Floyd is that professor who will not move forward with the lectures until everyone is on the same page. He will make sure that all his students have understood the topic being taught. Sample tests really help, relatively decent exams. Oh, he is definitely one of the humblest professors at Seneca.

Professor Floyd is a nice person and makes sure his students understands well in class but he does not prepare you for difficult or different kind of sums. His quizzes are easy but midterm and finals are super hard. If you don't study you are bound to fail, not to mention even after studying most of us find it difficult and is a tough grader.

Had a really tough time sitting through his lectures in all honesty. Guy always shows up late. I mostly learned on my own, which isn't advisable because he doesn't update blackboard about test dates until the last minute. Still got my credit if my math is mathing. Tests were softball up until the final. Hate to say it but I'm glad it's over.

Professor Floyd Sutherland is a very nice person, and I had a great experience in his class. The tests are fair and easy if you study properly, and he genuinely wants his students to succeed. He is down to earth, and I highly recommend attending his classes or watching the recordings if you miss one.
