He did not seem very confident about what he was teaching.

I think that he is very helpful. He explains things on a simple level that's easy to understand.

He's a good teacher! Tests aren't too hard, and he explains things quite well. Can be pretty funny at times as well

He is a really good teacher. His quizes and tests are very easy and he makes himself available for questions. He likes to joke around so he is not boring either!

He is SOOOOO easy! I got A's on his tests and i know nothing about math!

Spends a lot of time explaining something you don't understand; sometimes rushes during class 2 explain a lesson. Willing 2 help during his office hours and stays overtime. Easy 2 make an A if you do your HW, pay attention, and ask questions. Doesn't trick students on tests. Don't skip class!

He is very funny! I loved his class

Very easy class, great teacher, and sometimes funny. If you put forth the effort, you'll do well.

A little confusing at first but it gets better and easier.

He was an easy teacher, but he made a lot of careless mistakes as he was teaching. He treated us like middle schoolers. Other than that if you pay attention and do the homework, you'll get an A.

He is great and not to uptight. If you do your homework there is no way you couldn't get an A. If your not understanding something he is very willing to help. If everyone scored bad on a test or quiz he will usually throw it out. But don't expect to get a

I suck at math and this is my second time taking it cause the first time I had a teacher that didn't speak English, so I think he is a great teacher! He really does know what he is talking about, and if something is confusing you or you got it wrong, he will do everything to help you! He gives extra and partial credit! He is awesome!

great teacher..

he is my favorite teacher!!! he explains things very well!!! and he's cute :)

He is a lot of fun and makes the class enjoyable.

He was always willing to help you understand everything. He was funny and I enjoyed the class.

He is a really great professor and would recommend him for 1101. He is really easy. All you have to do is go to class and do your homework and ur chances of getting an A are good. He is also funny too!!!

This guy is such a good teacher. The best math teacher that I've ever had. Make sure you go to class though because if you have perfect attendence you don't have to take the final!!!

If you go to class the chances of passing are high. he seems to be a little confused at times and he is not willing to work with you on your grades...you either pass or fail. He is very excited about math and you better be too if you want him to like you. stay ontop of homework and attendance though mainly and you should pass

Mr. Velatini is a great guy! His class was NOT easy, but I think for the first time I actually understand what I have learned in math. He's a great teacher when you actually listen to him and study! He makes a few mistakes every once in a while, but he's human and he's a good sport about everything. He's also got an amazing final exam policy!

Take him!! For a math teacher he is extremely helpful and easy! If you have perfect attendence or all A's on the tests, then you can exempt the final!

This class was difficult but Velatini was fair.

I thought he was a great Professor. He was willing to help or stay after any time you need him too. Very fair. If you study you will do well. I dont really like Math and I faired pretty well. Funny guy

Mr. Velatini is a great teacher. I have never taken calculus, but have he makes everything very clear and gives you every opportunity to ask questions and get help. He tries to make everything apply to real situations in the business world and to make sure you understand. I would highly recommend him. He's awesome.

Always has time for students before or after class. Good sense of humor. Very helpful. Sometimes stays on one topic too long with troubled students. Needs to move on and let students use the math lab for tutoring or meet after class.

I would avoid him. Strange. Kind of a good teacher, if he likes you...

Great teacher! I don't know if this is still the policy, but when I took math models, if you had perfect attendance or got all A's on the tests, you could exempt the final!! Do the Homework--it's an easy A.

Velatini's a nice guy. He explains stuff well and he's rather amusing...he doesn't like to teach formulas, though, so if that's the way you learn math, well...He takes forever to grade stuff and he might lose what you turn in.

If your really good at Math no problem, but he is a good teach, makes it interesting, williness to help, but good luck he is always surrounded by other students. (Always).Do the homework,it counts as a quiz grade sometimes. Although, what you go over in class may not be on the test, test are hard, I did all the homework,tutored, and barely passed.

Very funny guy. He does get annoyed when people start asking questions which isnt helpful. Takes forever grading stuff and even loses stuff. Funny man and always was helpful outside of class but if your not good at math then i recommend taking someone else

He's such a wonderful teacher. If you're bad at math, you may want to take a different teacher, but the way he explains it was very easy to follow for me, but everyone learns differently. He's funny and really cares about your grade. He'll occasionally give extra credit. Definitely take him!

I loved Mr. Velatini! He is a great teacher who really wants his students to understand. I had his Calculus class, and I felt it was great and easy to understand. Homework and attendance are not necessary but definitely recommended! If you work with Velatini, he will not let you fail. He is really nice and very helpful.

Great Teacher! Pretty easy classes, but helpful.

Great teacher. Class was fairly easy overall

Great teacher. Very patient and explains everything thoroughly.

He was extremely helpful and has a great sense of humor. I definitely recommend his class. I have heard horrible things about other Brief Calculus teachers. Take him!

I loved him! His class is extremely easy, and he is great teacher. He explains things well, is patient when addressed, and very lenient with due dates. Don't be afraid to suggest things, he usually agrees!

Mr. Velatini was a very enjoyable teacher. While Calculus is never exactly easy, he managed to make the class fun and was excellent at explaining concepts thoroughly. Strongly recommend this class ifyou have to take calc 1!!!!

He is a great teacher to have if you love math. He is always willing to help if you don't understand the material and you have many ways to stay in touch with him

Mr. Velatini is awesome! Class isn't mandatory, but show up and you will learn. He has a methodical, clear way of teaching so there shouldn't be a problem, IF YOU PUT YOUR MIND TO IT. This is calc/stats: its not gunna be the easiest. So don't take frustration from a tougher class out on a professor who really does an amazing job! I took 2400 & 2040

Such a good math teacher! He gives weekly quizzes that really impact your grade and the questions come straight from the homework. So if you have any questions over the homework, he'll go over them before the quiz! He also gives a study guide before each test! TAKE HIM!!! You have to put work in, but you will definitely learn some math!

Super easy and he is helpful if you ask and show interest in his class. Definitely recommend him even if you aren't the best at math

Pretty easy math class. Have an occasional web assign assignment, but teacher is super helpful and he's a pretty funny guy especially at 8am. His tests aren't too hard as long as you study and he allows you to bring one page of notes to use on the test. Highly recommend him.

All you need to get a good grade in this professors class is diligence. He's entertaining, friendly and always accessible when you need help. Highly recommend!

If you're lazy you won't do well and if you don't show up then you won't learn. I hadn't been in a math class forseveral years and I did great. It takes work and he won't force you to do it, it's up to you to be the adult. He makes himself very accessible for help and his quizzes are straight from the homework.

Tests are what you learn in class. Show up, study a little and you'll make an A. He clarifies and wants his students to do well.

Velatini is the best. Easy A, doesn't take antendance. I never went, and still got an A. Weekly quizzes aren't hard at all. Tests are what we do in class, he'll give a study guide! He's funny so that's cool. Webassigns every week.

Awesome professor! He says on the very first day that quizzes are based on homework and tests are based on quizzes, so just do the homework. I do not understand why people found that so difficult. He is an excellent calculus teacher because it can get pretty confusing at times. Going to class is essential, but that is a given with a math class.

Mr. Velantini was awesome! One of my favorite math teachers by far, and I'm terrible at it! He made the material easy to understand by incorporating real life examples. Definitely one to take!

The class and assignments never seemed hard- until the test came. I always got 100s on my webassigns (which there are a lot of) but I didnt do as well on the tests. Get ready to go out on your own to learn everything about a subject

He's a great professor. Make sure to ask any questions about homework and webassign at the beginning of each class. There are 3 tests and a final. The tests are hard so study, study, and study. Even if you're good at math, study.

I love Mr. Velatini, he is by far my favorite professor in Mathematics. If you ever need help, he is always available. He makes everything easy to understand, which is great for non math majors. Plus, he is pretty cool. He plays great music in class and tells great jokes to keep you awake.

He was a great teacher, I would take him again in a heartbeat. He was very clear and if the class wasn't understanding he would take extra time to clear up any confusion. His tests are based off of the weekly quizzes and the quizzes come straight from the homework in the book. Overall easy class if you're willing to put in a little work.

Velatini is the best math professor I've ever had. If you like real-world examples rather than abstract math, you'll get more of them than normal in his class (he was once an engineer); he goes through things slowly enough that most will get it the first time around. If not, just ask questions and he'll explain. Would definitely take him again.

Velatini helps you, but you must do homework and attend class. He often changes webassign due dates and is very understanding. Very lenient grader on tests if you know material overall. Exam reviews are just like tests, final is straight forward, but you must study/practice problems. Taking again for Calc II!

He is a great professor and although he can be a little unclear during lectures, he has no problem seeing you in his office. Super nice guy and super helpful.

Fun, nice guy. Very helpful and gives opportunity to do better if you bomb something.

Great teacher for students who are not normally good at math. knows a lot and can relate it so everyone understands. pretty easy quiz every few classes, he tells you about them and reviews beforehand. TAKE NOTES IN CLASS and you will be fine. Don't miss class or you will miss A LOT.

I HATE MATH! but he made it relatable, interesting, and fun. even if you don't like/understand math he will make it work. he doesn't mind going over something if he loses you. OH and i took this class over the summer so it was at an even faster pace.

he is the most helpful to me one-on-one, but if you go to class everyday and pay attention, you will get an A

He is a great professor- won't leave class until everyone understands what he is teaching. He's very chill, but beware- that can mean pop quizzes! The tests and quizzes aren't hard, just make sure you understand all the concepts. The only homework is some launchpad assignments and those can be tricky since they're on things he didn't teach you.

He makes class interesting with his humor. If you come to class and occasionally due the homework it's not hard. It's just a basic math class with lecture, quiz, then test. If you meet certain criteria you can exempt the final! Definitely would recommend!

I took Dr. Velatini over the summer for Calculus 2 and he was really helpful in helping us understand the math. However, this can be easily exploited to keep from moving on to new topics and we did not finish all of the material. He has quizzes often but they are never a surprise. Also very helpful to other transient students like myself.

I thoroughly enjoyed this class. He isn't afraid to make the class laugh and be himself while also making sure you understand statistics. This teacher is very respected because he is very knowledgable upon what he teaches. (and he really has a passion for it which makes any student inspired to learn)

I took pre-cal in highschool so that definitely helped. His style of teaching is to write a problem on the board and explain how he got there. You must do your homework to understand the material and do well on the tests.

I had Mr. V back in 2015. His style is to work a problem out on the board then give problems to students to practice. Overall, he is one of the best professors I have ever had. He is always willing to help and makes sure that you understand the content. He even helped me with another class I was taking (2040) . I still keep in touch. Love him!

Velatini is a great teacher but you have to go to class to learn. He teaches everything straight off the board. He is willing to explain and even use his office hours to help you. DO THE HOMEWORK. Webassign and the problems from the workbook are used on quizzes and tests. Easy grade if you work for it.

Velantini is definitely one of my favorite professors. He's very funny and tries to make class interesting. His class is easy as long as you show up and pay attention. He gives a quiz every week and optional homework. The tests are very similar to the quizzes and worksheets he gives. I highly recommend him!

Mr. Velatini is awesome! I was terrified to take Statistics and ended up LOVING this class. I genuinely enjoyed coming to class and it went by so quickly. He can be a bit disorganized sometimes and the textbook is completely useless (make sure you go to class!) but I would totally recommend him to anyone and would take him again myself.

I took him for an online course and I found it to be very easy to learn. Many in here claim that it took him a while to update the grades but since our class was online I received mine quickly.

Professor Velatini has a heart of gold. This man is very kind and has a wonderful sense of humor. Though Statistics is not exactly exciting, he made learning it enjoyable. Make sure you attend the weekly lab help sessions as they are crucial to understanding the material. He brought us donuts on the last day also :)

While he doesn't answer emails, if you go to his office hours or ask after class he will answer your questions and genuinely wants you to pass his class.

I am consistently horrible at math, but I liked the way he taught my class. He was a tough but fair grader. I went to his office hours almost once a week and he was always willing to help me. Definitely wouldn't have passed the class without the extra help, so don't be afraid to ask!

Dr. Velatini is great. Super funny and engaging guy, and he was always able to explain concepts in more than one way to help students understand. When helping you with troubleshoot your code, he guides you to figuring out what is wrong and how to fix it, rather than just telling you, which actually helped me learn the content. Highly recommend!

Velatini is great at teaching, not so much on administration. Almost half my homework wasn't graded until after the final, but I found that if I came to class, help sessions, and office hours, I learned everything I needed for a high A. Most hate the coding part of the class, which I understand, I just found if I studied it was fine.

I loved this class. The course content overall was easy and the professor is an awesome guy. He's very lenient on grading and almost every week class participation on Fridays was optional. Midterm and final are split into an in-class and take-home portion, the take-home being generally harder but a lot more time to work on it. HIGHLY recommend.

I don't know why people are giving bad reviews for this guy, he was great for my class. All his tests are multiple choice with 2 attempts, it is almost impossible to fail. Weekly homework with unlimited attempts. Weekly quizzes were the only thing that I struggled with as the software is just annoying. Honestly just show up to class.

A very funny professor, if you like math or have a basic knowledge for comp sci it is a fairly easy class. If you do all the homework then the tests will be easy.

Dr. V was a phenomenal professor and genuinely a great guy. I've never had so much fun in a MATH class before. If you are extroverted and love to engage in lectures and lessons, this is the professor for you. He does care about how well you do and wants to be there for help. He always makes sure everyone understands the content as well.

He was a great professor. His class was moderately hard but he teaches very well. You have two attempts on tests and get a sheet of notes! He is super funny and a really great guy. We sometimes had pop quizzes but they were normally very easy and we could work together. Great class!

Professor Velatini is a super caring guy and as long as you show an effort he's willing to help you any way he can. The class itself content-wise is fairly difficult but he does great lectures and is very informative. Attendance isn't taken but I would try hard to make every class or you'll be behind! I highly recommend him!

Professor V is a caring guy who wants you to succeed. While the content can be tough, his lectures are informative and he's willing to help if you put in the effort. Using Unstuckstudy alongside the textbook can be a real lifesaver. Definitely worth taking his class if you can.

I took him for python stats, and I think he took attendance once or twice. A few pop quizzes. Quiz heavy at first but they're easy. HW and maybe a lab every week. midterm and a final, but you're allowed a cheatsheet on both. Everything is online. Honestly he's kind of boring so paying attention is hard, but he cares and tries to help his students.

He was a great professor; the class material itself was hard. I have been told by people that took him and other professors for this class that he was the best teacher for it. Only 1 homework and quiz each a week and about 3 or 4 test in the semester. He cares a lot and makes himself available out of class. Although don't ask dumb questions.

Really funny guy, but he kinda goes off on tangents if you don't enjoy that. However at the end of the day he gets done what needs to be, and if not, he will move the due date or remove the material from the tests. He's pretty understanding and a nice dude. He made pre calc as easy to learn as it could be

DO NOT TAKE HIM FOR STATISTICS!!!!! He is an amazing professor who is caring and loves to make jokes and interact with this students but his statistics class is all coding. If that's what you're into then go ahead but I much rather have taken a regular stat class than take this coding class. He'll also swear it's not a coding class, but it is.

Mr. Velatini is one of my favorite teachers. He teaches difficult classes but really focuses on making sure we understand the material. He can and will read your face and he knows if you get it or don't. His tests are fair and the homework is important. 10/10 Math teacher.

Calculus is quite easy if you remotely paid attention during high school-- and this is light Calc! He's super funny and definitely gives off dad vibes.
