He's a good teacher. I found him easy to understand when he lectures. You'll probably need to get additional help outside of class for questions about the homework, but he does try to make himself available. If you do all of the homework and get your questions answered, the tests aren't that hard.

Horrible teacher! Won't answer any questions because apparently he can read everyone's mind and already knows what you are going to ask. Homework doesn't count for grades and we can't ask ?s about it in class, so why didn't I just take this online? Also, we didn't get any of our grades back until the week before the class ended.

Where do I start? 15 minutes late every day. Randomly doesn't show for class. Cancels class at last minute. Thinks he is a mind reader and knows just what YOU want to hear but doesn't allow you to comment back. Doesn't teach the ridiculously hard questions he has on the tests. Takes MONTHS for him to update grades. I can go on but I am out of room

Wouldn't take again

Took his class as a C session and it was the worse decision ever. A whole semester compressed into a month and a half. All the work is on MathXL. He never really lectured or taught because all his students were on a different pace. Whenever I did ask questions he gave me the wrong answers. I ended up teaching myself. I don't recommend this class.

Overall I'd have to rate this professor as poor. Syllabus instructions during the first week of class were wrong causing the entire class to do unnecessary work. His only interaction with students is a once a week email that seems scripted. Professor is very poor at responding to questions. Tests are much harder than homework. Do not recommend.

Haylen is a super nice guy he gives you feedback every week and wants his students to pass. He emails you about how you can get an A and allows retakes on homework, quizzes and tests(which is good because the tests count for a majority of the grade). Pro-student and a great teacher to have.

He has selective hearing when it comes to email responses. Does not have notes or recorded lectures available for online students. Did not answer the phone the whole semester.

The pros: He was flexible around a hurricane. The workload is reasonable, although somewhat heavy and repetitive at times. The exams are open all week and you have 2 tries. The Cons: Replied to 1 out of my 5 emails. No lecture, no guides, 0 presence from the professor. It's just you and MathXL. Don't expect timely announcements, or any at all.

Do not recommend taking this class online. Everything was done between yourself & online mathlab. The one time I needed assistance, I emailed him & never got a response. You will have to spend tons of hours learning the material because the exams are heavily graded so even if you do well on assignments and quizzes, your exams could tank your grade.
