He is a horrible teacher. He asks if anyone has any questions and know one has any because there teaching themselves at home the next day. he has a major complex with power. He wants people to fail. He shouldn't teach anymore.

This guy sucks. He encourages questions, but when you ask him, he gets all defensive as if you're trying to prove him wrong. Terrible teacher. Tells u to study one thing, gives you a test on another. Don't take him.

NO. drop while you can. can't teach, unapproachable, unclear, sometimes seems like he doesn't know what he's talking about. just NO.

Beware!!! This teacher is terrible. I attended every class for 5 weeks to find out I had been dropped with no explanation. He doesn't explain anything. He knows the math but doesn't know how to teach it. Half of our class dropped. Once again BEWARE!!

He's boring. He looks like the FAT NUTTY PROFESSOR. He can't teach Pre-Calculus for crap. He sucks. And did I say he's boring? He acts like he's teaching a bunch of kids from MIT. He expects you to know your stuff already. Don't take him for Pre-Cal.

I once tried to ask a question about one of the practice problems and he said that he could not help me, he said that if i wanted help i needed to use tutoring services. I work durring the day that is why i attend night school, i do not have time for tutoring!!!

This is the third time I've taken Stats.HE can't teach it; he can't present concepts clearly.He seems like a befuddled old man with an inferiority complex.He singles out and cuts down anyone that asks questions about a concept, or even a problem.Hell, my high school stats teacher was better than him

what can i say? every one else has said it all.

Horrible.

awful. how is he still allowed to teach? i dont understand how someone so incapable of teaching DOES?!

this guy is a complete idiot-- very unhelpful!! acts like he does not want to be teaching, seems bored. very unclear and difficult!! i strongly suggest you look for another prof.

Thaggert has no passion (or seeming interest) in the subject he is teaching, which makes lessons difficult to listen to. He makes a lot of mistakes while going through examples in class, which causes confusion.

this guy is the worst teacher i have ever had. he does not even know the meaning of help, sucha jerk

Very Rude, Gets irritated quickly, expects you to know things right away even though he doesn't clearly explain, you can't make up any tests unless planned even for family deaths.

Study the problems he assigns. Additionally, review all the notes. As a side notes, don't expect to get any help in this class. He waves you off when you ask for it. Overall, since I am awesome in mathematics, this class was a breeze. Take his class during the evening..

HE LOOKS, ACTS, AND MUMBLES LIKE PROFESSOR CLUMP! Having that said, he is an aweful professor. I hope this guy retires soon. Take this class under NO circumstances!

I am extremely dissapointed. I learned absolutely nothing. Im confident this teacher will get fired.

Mr. Thaggert is not the professor to take for this class. He is very unhelpful and rude in class. He is not able to break the information down into terms so you or I could understand! He is not the professor that you want to take for this class!! I PROMISE!!

He is a terrible teacher. VERY UNHELPFUL! He reads directly out of the book, will ding you for not showing ALL work (including adding and subtracting), you MUST do it his way even if you have the answer right, Does NOT explaing things, will mark problems wrong even if he didn't show you how to do it!

Bad teacher, he will read the 1/2 sentence explanation in book then jump directly to problems. No explanation what at all on how to actually solve the problems. Your better off just reading the book yourself and using the internet. I DO NOT RECOMMEND!

He follows a stick agenda, unwilling to work with me, doesn't give enough time to complete a test. If you have concerns he will ask you to wait till the end of class.I went to every single class, but I wasn’t getting the material. So I withdrew from his class (I got a B’s on the two previous math classes; I am not a slacker)

Instructor is unfamiliar with the material and frequently grows confused when trying to 'wing' relating concepts to one another. Will argue when you point out his solutions are wrong. Exceedingly rude. I don't need hand holding but I pay for someone to have a passing familiarity with the text they're teaching. Too bad I can't get my money back.

Don't take him. If you must, then use the class time to study out of the textbook. He lacked organization, ability to explain class material in a clear/concise/understandable manner. TI 86 only, no TI 89. Hard to remain motivated for his class throughout the qtr.

His class is ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE... I am not lazy or closed minded or anything but this teacher is truly horrible. I dropped his class after a few sessions because it was already apparent the quarter was going to be ridiculous.

i ended up dropping this dreadful class...you basically have to teach yourself. so if you're not a math wiz or whatever...good luck!

im currently taking his course. he knws wht he's talking abt but he's a mess. he's rly disorganized & jumps back and forth thru chpters. everything he says & teaches is frm the book. i've been trying to pass this class by studying the book myself. dont waste ur time, u might as well take an online course. HW: gives 3 problems per 1-2wks pro/con? =/

Does not explain clearly, mumbles and is not friendly. Seems like he doesn't enjoy his job.

Horrible teacher. Took him 2 hours to review 5 simple homework questions. He seems like a grumpy, old man who doesn't enjoy his job at all. Lectures are useless but homework was easy. Things on the test weren't always what we had gone over in class so some independent studies were needed. Wouldn't recommend this teacher to anyone.

I dont want to be mean. This man is a great, nice person but he really does NOT belong in teaching.He makes grammar mistakes which mislead any one trying to solve his problems. And he teaches, no, reads from the book!..not helpful at all.gives easy homework but the exams are EXTREMELY difficult!

I can honestly say that Mr. Thaggert, even though he knows the topic well, is worthless when it comes to student interaction and help. I personally seen him make two students cry due to his unwillingness to provide assistance. He doesn't explain the material very clearly. You better be a self-motivator and not need help to take his course.

WORST!!teacher EVER!he jumps chapters, so read urself. literally will not answer questions. he does NOT know how to engage his students nor does he show passion. math is universal and u can just read the book thank god! if u have questions ask a tutor. I'm upset cause i like math but he makes me want to drop.whats worst is he obviously doesn't care

Worst Teacher Ever! Do Not take him. He is very rude. Does not like to review or go over questions. Very impatient and disorganized.

I took this class in high school so it was easy for me. I corrected him a lot during the course of the class. He makes many mistakes. He always asks if students have any questions while looking down, and no questions are then answered. It's clear that he wants to engage in helping students but his help is kind of useless.

Don't ever ever ever get him. He doesn't know how to teach. He wants all the answers specifically his way. So if you're right, and it's not the way he wants it to be,it's considered wrong. He's not helpful either. When I asked him for help,he doesn't answer my question and suggests that I get help somewhere else.

Honestly the absolute worst professor I've ever had in my life. Rude, boring, and makes so many mistakes in his own work it's ridiculous. Relies way too much on the textbook you question whether he actually knows anything. It's ironic because he asks you to be exact in your calculations. I know everyones human but comon, you're a professor.
