Miller made trigonometry fun. He had a cool sense of humour and didn't take himself too seriously. The class was not open notes or book and so we were forced to learn concepts that I'm sure we will all appreciate in Calculus. He gave plenty of feedback and was willing to explain things until we actually understood them : )

The math is not bad its kinda interesting. His grading is super tough. A part of me thinks he gets satisfaction in students failing or not being able to pass his class It seems the harder he grades the smarter he thinks he is. He does explain the material clearly, however he trys to make the problems more difficult than the book.

If this class is required for a major, take it w/ someone else! There are quizzes every time the class meets, no extra credit, no study guide, and hard tests. It is basically a new subject. Stats is more like a ton of logic based English w/ confusing word problems instead of Math. STRONGLY NOT RECOMMENDED FOR STUDENTS!!!

This class is good for people who are intent on learning stats with seriousness. If your're interested in a major studying social sciences(psyc) and you want to be prepared especially for your upper division courses. Since most psyc majors will have to take at least 3 total semesters of stats you'll want to be prepared for your profession.

So everyone who is complaining that he is tough or that he grades hard is ridiculous! He is one of the best teachers I have ever met. He is always willing to help and can be a very useful tool outside of class. Math 130 is hard period. Dont let others blame the teacher for their lack of effort. They must learn their way, not the way of the student.

It's very important that you attend every class lecture because Miller wants work on quizzes and exams done his way with no exceptions. As long as you pay attention and ask for clarification, it's an easy class even if you hate math. Not being hassled with mandatory homework and being rewarded with pizza at the end of the semester is also a plus!

Professor Miller's classes aren't difficult, rather you must be in class everyday and willing to learn. He gives 4 exams and daily quizzes. Quizzes are from what he taught from the previous day class. As long as you study the material and do the online homework you can receive an easy B or higher. He is strict on how he grades, you must show work!

Attentive to students, always checking that students understand. However, did not appreciate how his teaching methods don't match the txtbk & online hmwrk.

Not a fan of his teaching style as far as trying to explain in too much detail about why are formula is what it is, or why an answer works or doesn't work. In my opinion it is too much information and rather get straight to the point. It's like he tries to talk about the philosophy and history of math, and makes it more confusing/boring.

Does not grade you work. No feedback and allows late exams to be submitted in canvas for allowing 10 minutes past his actual submit time and won't grades them.

After having Greg for 3 classes (calc 2, linear algebra, and differential equations), here is my opinion. Attendance is not technically mandatory, he would record and post lectures on his website. Take EXCELLENT notes because it is going to help you in the long run. Make friends in the class because 2 or more brains is better than 1. Good luck!

If you take professor miller expect a very challenging semester. That being said, he is a good instructor. He tells you from day one what to expect from his class, and if you follow his instructions you will make it through.

He gives a lot of homework, & has a quiz every day but they're easy and prepare you for the test. He's a great Professor and actually cares if you pass. Anytime you need help he'll be there for you and asks you whether you get the material or not, if not he helps you. You won't regret taking his class just give him a try regardless of the reviews.

I took Math130 online and it was WAAAY more work than it should have been for a low-level math class. At least 2 lectures per week and they were each a minimum of 2 hours. Quizzes, math labs, worksheets, and tests FREQUENTLY. Be prepared to work your bum off. Don't take him. Save yourself. He is so hard to get ahold of. Never responds to emails.

Lots of HW. Quiz everyday. Lecture worksheets and in class worksheets every time we meet. Prof Miller really pushed me out of my comfort zone. Even with a C I am glad I took his class. I would take it again, but I would definitely study harder than I did. He's a really cool teacher!

This professor is great and explains everything extremely well. The people who lowly rate him are likely too lazy to actually put in the time and effort into his class. His quizzes are extremely helpful because they make sure that you understand the lectures and stay on top of them. Although the class is hard, not a reason to blame Greg.

Professor Miller was a tough class, doesn't explain things well, most lectures are videos, you do homework before you learn the chapter, you get your grade after the exams, and he doesn't use canvas, overall I would'nt take this class again.

I did my best with Mr. Miller. So I had lecture homework, in class work, and quiz. I followed the rules this semester and follow the schedule. I know that exams are difficult to do that so I can spend time studying with quizzes and exams at home. The online homework that I had logged in is My math lab Pearson.

Amazing at giving lectures that are recorded. does not use Canvas at all. everything is on his website. The grading system is a point system so your grade is made by a few assignments. says there was extra credit but only did one EC opportunity my year.

I'll tell you why I got an A, last semester Greg the instructor told me each unit is 2 to 3 hours but for four units 8 to 12 hours out of class. A flipped classroom is I do my homework and then in class work. Quizzes that I reviewed before the class starts was 4 to 10 hours per week and exams I reviewed it was 11 hours per week.

For every quiz I study outside for a minimum of 2 hours, if these are harder and difficult for the quiz, then I study outside of class for 3 to 5 hours. For these exams chapters covered from what I learned. I studied 6 hours outside of class.

I took honors stats in high school and I learned so much from it. But as I started taking this class I basically had to teach myself because he would move fast throughout the class. And I didn't learn much from him by the way he taught. He was also rude from time to time.

He's not going to give you an easy A, but he gives time to make sure you understand the material. Just show up every class, be actively listening, follow along, read the book, and rewatch his lectures. Fav: he posts his lectures online to rewatch incase you need to hear the details twice. I enjoyed the class. Catch phrase, are you w/ me?

The classroom model is not for everyone. Lectures are videos online to be watched on your own time, and class time is used to review the lecture material. Daily quizzes are given that are similar to the lecture notes. I found the honors portion to be better for me, as the final is worth less of your total grade, and we are given labs instead.

One of the best professors i have ever had in math, he is very clear and you actually understand the material, the lectures are recorded online, he is a tough grader but it's really on you, you really have to study and practice in order to pass the class, I had a D because I didn't put effort but trust me I understood everything he taught.

Greg Miller is a good professor, I just got out of High School and knew nothing about stats and he made me understand the whole concept of stats. BEWARE OF QUIZZES!!! AND A FLIPPED CLASSROOM, it was my first time doing it and it was hard at first but overall I had a good time with this professor. I would recommend going to the Tutoring Center
