His tests are straight from the book and homework. You don't have to really come to class, you just have to do your homework. Don't slack off, like I did, he doesn't give extra credit and you will suffer during the final. He drops your lowest test grade!

Math has always been a difficult subject for me but Professor Andreasyan has made it easier for me through his thorough lectures. Getting a good grade in the class is not difficult as long as you do the homework!

This is a math professor who really teaches you! His lectures and notes are so clear and he will help you on anything. His exams aren't easy but they aren't impossible! The homework is done online through ALEKS, which is helpful! He really cares about his students excelling. I absolutely recommend!

No extra credits. Homework is a little bit more. 8 EXAMS in total weigh 65% and a final weighs 20% . 10 Questions each exam. Only 2 or 3 are from homework and classwork or what he wrote on the board. However, the exams are not hard, and he will drop the lowest one. You can get an A if you do the homework with care. Highly recommended!

I respect him. He explains in full about what he teaches, and checks if everyone is ok with his explanation. His lecture is clear and helps understand math easily. However, his lecture goes so fast that this class can be harder than your expectation. If you take his class, you'll face a bunch of homeworks and tests. Test is kind of difficult.

Pros: 1.) Patient, caring, and willing to answer any questions in class. 2.) Very lenient and grades fairly on exams. 3.) Fair amount of hw and exams. Cons: 1.) Lectures purely from the book, copies word for word. 2.) Barely any examples. 3.) Exams almost nothing similar to hw. Overall if you already know calculus, take him, but learning it? No.

He tries to make students understand what he teaches as much as possible. BUT, several exams are pretty hard. If you want to get an A, you'd better look for other classes. Just a few classmates for an A. In a word, one of the hardest math classes at PCC.

The lecture is enjoyable. But there is too much homework to do after the class. There are about 7 exams and 1 final, but he would drop the lowest exam. Do the classwork and homework, you will be fine on the exam. He would help you if you have questions. He barely gives extra credits, but he will give partial credits when grading the exams.

Such a great professor would definitely recommend and take again! Before each test, we'd work in pairs on a study guide to review the information that would be on the test. He was very clear in his teaching, he has a slight accent but was still very easy to understand. I hope he teaches higher math levels!

Best math professor I've ever had in PCC. He is knowledgeable and very kind. His lectures are very clear and helpful. I almost got 100 for all the tests except making some mistakes sometimes. His classwork is helpful because it helps you review what you've learnt. As long as you pay attention in class and do all HW, you'll pass with an easy A.

Prof. A is a wonderful prof. Does not read thru textbook's way, rather he gives a much more simple solution to solve equations. Math 9 is not hard compared to mathpath 7A7B, especially with Andreasyan. Very understanding and helpful when you need help. Textbook is a must. No extra credit. Drops lowest test score of all the tests you take.

If you took Pre-calc in high school and got a low B or a C, DO NOT take this class. You are better off taking 7A and then 7B if you want an A. This class moves extremely fast, covering 3-4 sections per day. Each section we are given about 30-40 Homework problems. If you are good at pre-calc then you will be fine, most is review.

He's an okay professor. He teaches the material and finishes on time. He does give a lot of homework and it's graded, so it's best if you do it. His tests are straight-forward. If you do the homework, you'll pass. I find that he's more of a generous grader. He only deducts points, so the lowest score possible on tests is around a 50 (if you try).

His personality is bleh, but his passion for math helped me in this class. Lectures are easy to understand and thorough. If confused, he'll try his best to explain in different ways. Do the homework! It's tedious but he gives credit if you do just ONE problem. Take notes and study! He gives study guides before very quiz which helps A LOT!

If you plan on learning do not take him. Goes too fast, only cares about saying he taught it when he didn't. If you ask him to go over a problem again he will say there is no time. Only cares about getting through the textbook as fast as he can. He expects you to know how to do the math already, skips over chapters because of this expectation.

He is an extremely caring professor, he assigns a lot of homework but you only have to do 50% of it to be counted (says on syllabus). Before every test, he will go over all the material that will be on it which is very helpful. Although, he goes through material really fast so if you skip you're gonna miss A LOT. Honestly, he isn't a bad professor.

Andreasyan isn't a good teacher I understood most his lectures only because I took PreCal in HS. Most other students didn't and would often complain about that. Tests are easily passable as they're similar to the study guides he gives out. I had an A overall and got a D in the final, since he doesn't specify as to what to study for the final.

Its a great class... that is if you took pre- calculus and passed it, if not you'll fail this class too; he goes way too fast and uses a book that has problems that are even more difficult than math 9.
