He is great. Explains every thing step by step. Usually gets the test question out of the home-work. Friendly and willing to help any one. You can ask him any question and he will take his time until you understand.

Very thorough with his explanations. You can ask him anything. First half of tests are general answers. Multiple choice questions after that. Very fair teacher.

Great teacher . will go the extra mile .A+++++++

Funny, will help you and answer any questions you may have. Will not let you make up an exam if missed. But will count highest grade from other test to cover it. Let's you use a calculator.

Easy. Good teacher. He's there to help, his tests are based from the homework.Highly recommend!

One of the best teachers...Do the homework, ask questions when you don't understand, and pay attention in class and you WILL get an A. TAKE HIS CLASS U WON't REGRET IT!

ummm... i basically wish he was my biffle. haha. extremely nice, extremely intelligent. he cant really command a quiet class but it frustrates him so be respectful if you wanna learn/not get out late. he's really nice as long as you don't act stupid because he'll call you out on it. everything on the tests are pulled directly from the homework.

He teaches you by going through the book problems set by set and then he'll make you do the odd ones for homework. He will give you quiz every now and again but if you do your homework you're good. He is really helpful if you don't understand something. He grades on a curve most of the time and he gives you study guides so you should get an "A"

He talks like squidward but he is a pretty good teacher. His tests get easier as the semester goes on

He is every educated about the subject he teaches and he explain it very clearly to you. i recommend everyone to take his class.

Lets face it, this class is tough. Prof Loschak gives you all the tools to get through the class. Yea the examples in class may be vague compared to the Textbook. He makes you work. I respect him for that. There is no easy A but if you do all your work and stick to it you should be fine. He will offer all the help you need. Very approachable.

He is very nice and approachable...I will give him that, but his methods for teaching stink. He just does the example problems from the book and assingns the odd ones for homework. He moves at a fast pace and it is hard to keep up. His tests are extreemely hard and I am good in math. I won't take him again, another teacher would be much better.

Good teacher! He is very organized and gives great examples. The pace is fast but as long as you do your homework, you will be OK. If you don't understand, he is always available to help. He also gives extra credit on the exams.

Very good teacher. Can explain subject matter well, and is really good with word problems. However, his classes are not easy. Some tests cover 6 or seven sections, and you get lots of questions on tests and run out of time to work them out unless you are very familiar with math and really work hjard at homework and spend lots of time in math labs.

He expects you to use your brain and do the homework. You're not in high school! Grow up. It was a challenging class, but I still passed with an A.

He's a great instructor. Highly recommend him. He taught me a lot. If you are not motivated do not take this class. He has patience. Explains the material very well. He does cover a lot of material at one time but nothing strenuous. Make sure you attend class.

Very good teacher. Takes personal time to make sure you understand the subject. As long as you do all the homework and ask as many questions as you need you will be able to pass. He lets students call him at any time of the day or night for help on homework. I used to get off work at 1 A.M and call for help with the homework. Would recommend

I liked this teacher because attendance was not mandatory. He only grades tests so you can show up only on test days and still pass. He moves quickly but that's not his fault, he has a lot to teach in a relatively short time. Being able to understand a math book at home makes all the difference here. If you can do that, he's cool, if not, good luck

Really good teacher!!!! attendance not mandatory but you have to be really carefull with all your test!! her will help you alot so I attend all of his classes. I recommend him!!!

There are much better teachers out there. If you're not a "math person" look elsewhere. There is no extra credit and you will be graded only on your test grades. A large percentage of my class dropped out by the half way point of this semester.

He really knows his stuff, but his tests are extremely hard. Homework isn't graded, and attendance isn't necessary.

does not check homework assignments and attendance isn't mandatory. grades only based on test scores. do not take if looking for an easy A.

Attendence is important, because if you miss material you will fall behind. Homework is to be done for practice to understand the concept.He allows open notes and open book for all tests. If your final is higher than a regular testgrade he will replace your lowest score. He ecourages students to email or even call him (he gives his home #)Good Tchr

He is a thorough and clear teacher and offers his students any supplemental help he can to the extent of giving his home phone number. The subject matter requires that the student do their part out of class, but he will certainly do his part to help students succeed

He is a nice guy. Very fair, the tests are hit and miss. Some tests you can bring a notecard. I dont know if I will pass, but I think he is pretty good.

He is the best statistic professor in BCC, not only because he teaches well, but also he is so helpful, you just need to knock his door office and he will explain you whatever you do not understand.The class is by itself hard, you have to do the homework to get A's on the tests which are really challenging. He will challenge your inteligence...

Brilliant professor. Sometimes he looks arrogant. It is because he knows what he is talking about. Attendance is very important to not fall behind and homework is a must. If you think you are good at math taking him and you will know that you still have alot to learn.

He is good professor, but his methods are old. No online(blackboard) help. He would help you anywhere. His explaining some times gets confusing. Shop around for someone offers a blended course(online and class room). No homework is checked and he curves the results. Tests are easy. There are pros and cons. Know your scientific calculator(v. imp)

Good teacher. Willing to help the students. Gives his home phone number. Clear and concise. Take him every chance you get. Sit up front to avoid distractions and do the homework. The action is so real and intense; he will cover you in precious chalk dust and you will love every minute of it.

He's not a bad professor. Old-fashioned but considerate, approachable, and wants you to succeed. Homework is not graded, he doesn't answer HW questions during class, but you should of course do it. You have to go by his office if you need help. He's always there and wants you to understand why the answer is what it is. I'd take him again.

Amazing Teacher! Gives you a ton of options to pass this class. I didn't listen to his instructions and got a 59 on my first test. I learned my lesson and did exactly as he suggested and, Walked away with a 100 from his class. It may seem at times that he doesn't care, but he does. VERY VERY VERY HELPFUL!!!!

Awesome Teacher!!!! all of his tests are given on a 10% curve. The only things that count towards your grades are the exams and the tests. If you don't do your homework, you will fail this class.. Trust me... He's also hilarous!

THIS PROFESSOR IS AWESOME! HIS TESTS ARE NOT EASY BUT THEY ARE OPEN BOOK AND OPEN NOTES! HE GIVES YOU HIS PHONE # 2 CALL HIM WITH ANY QUESTIONS AND I USED IT A COUPLE OF TIMES! BEST MATH TEACHER AT BC HANDS DOWN. TAKE HIM U WILL LOVE HIM!

THIS PROFESSOR IS AWESOME! HIS TESTS ARE NOT EASY BUT THEY ARE OPEN BOOK AND OPEN NOTES! HE GIVES YOU HIS PHONE # 2 CALL HIM WITH ANY QUESTIONS AND I USED IT A COUPLE OF TIMES! BEST MATH TEACHER AT BC HANDS DOWN. TAKE HIM U WILL LOVE HIM!...O SPECIAL NOTE USE KEYS FRM LAST YEAR IF U KNOW ANYONE THAT TOOK HIS CLASS. TEST QUESTIONS R THE SAME =)

He's really good, but he laughs at his own jokes which is kind of funny. He's available for help during his office hours and will answer questions during class. DO THE HOMEWORK! He doesn't grade the HW but it really helps on tests.

I took this class during summer 2012. If you are transferring to a real university and have to take more maths: take Loschak. I attended his office hours regularly to review material (it was hard). If you can not handle Loschak's class you are probably not fit for higher education; in other words - he is a REAL professor, not like most at BC.

I loved this professor. I am good at math but he was very helpful. I encourage you to take him.

Puts aside office time for students who need help. Gives personal cell to call anytime to help with HW. HW not mandatory, but recommended. The work itself is difficult, but his teaching style is not. Gives a 10% curve on all tests except final. Will replace lowest test grade with final grade, if needed. Would recommend if you have math problems.

The single most helpful professor I've had the pleasure to study under thus far. He will demand you email, call or visit his office until the material sinks in. His class is not "easy" but you'll walk out feeling accomplished each time. He notices if you struggle and will approach you privately to offer help. In credibly sweet and intelligent.

I love Loschak, he isn't "easy", and he will call you out if you are being silly or unreasonable in his class but mostly hes very fun to listen to. His lectures go a little fast but he never minds repeating or reiterating and will offer endless amounts of help so long as you ask

I was taking trig, but I had to drop. I would have continued in the class, but I didn't have enough time. There was a lot of HW and it's a subject that needs time. His teaching method is also not for everyone. He teaches almost purely through examples, whereas I prefer some explanation first. I wouldn't take him again, though.

Challenging course because math is not my best subject, but he is a very good professor and has office hours as well. I actually liked how his tests were short answer. That way, each question was worth a few points, so it gave you an opportunity to get some points for the question even if your answer wasn't quite right. I received an A!

Very nice professor, likes to get personal with students and its a friendly environment. He's also a funny guy and a clear teacher.

This was my first college semester and I was terrified of failing math, but I ended up getting an A in his class. He is very nice and helpful. Any questions you have he is always more than happy to answer them. His explanations are clear and he makes sure all students are on the same page during his class. I highly recommend him :)

I took him for STA2023 over the summer (A 6 week course not for the faint of heart.) This class was very straightforward, and Professor Loschak was very receptive to student concerns, questions, etc. He's very witty and a brilliant guy, and he knows what he's talking about. Not an easy course, you must study! Anyone is capable of getting an A.

This professor is great. Straight forward, and very willing to help. He gives you additional credit just for taking the tests in class and will also replace a poor test grade with the grade from your final exam if you do well.

He lets you miss class, as long you attend test days. He is really good at explaining. And so wiling to help. No homework thats graded.

Prof. Loschark is a great teacher! I took him over the summer last year, his class was Monday - Thursday. If you need help from him you have to ask! He is flexible with help. You have to do your recommended homework, if you don't do it you wont pass. His test are fair and he gives you credit for your work. I will be taking him again for trig.

One of, if not the, best math teacher I've had. Really nice and down to earth, and I was able to understand his lectures and logic really well.

This class was pretty difficult in the beginning, but became easier after learning how to study for his tests. Professor Loschak is honestly a really nice guy who is looking out for your best interest as long as you are willing to try and succeed in his class. He gives extra credit and curves his tests. I worked hard in his class and it paid off.

If you need help, professor Loschak has flexible hours. If you do the homework you should be able to pass. Don't do trig in the summer!

I took Calc AB senior year of HS (C- average). Decided to retake Pre-Calc and Trig. Made the right decision taking Trig with Dr. Loschak. DO THE HOMEWORK! Some problems in the tests look exactly like them. Even if you don't finish, you may have a fair understanding of the material. Final exam ?'s are from the previous tests. Ready to tackle Calc I.

Some people don't like him because he teaches through examples, but that is the way I like to learn and learn best. Final was pretty much a review. Assigns homework but you don't have to do it.

Excellent instructor. receptive to the personal difficulties that may arise during the semester. fair grader, reasonable office hours. If you take his course and you put forth the effort he requests you will pass. if you care about your grade, so will he.

The only grades he gives (at least in the class I took) are tests. They are basically the same as what he assigns on the optional HW so you know exactly what to expect. He does examples and makes everything pretty easy to understand. Others in the class struggled, so don't expect an easy A, especially if you aren't great at math.

Professor Loschak is a great teacher, he stops to answer questions and reassures you that nothing you ask is dumb, he breaks things down into understandable terms and works lots of examples, he points students to every possible source of help, and he kept the whole class laughing. If you aren't great at math though, keeping up w/ hw is a must.

Prof Loschak really expects hard work and dedication. If you don't give a 100% you wont pass. Homework isn't for a grade but is SUPER IMPORTANT if you want to pass. He's a good teacher but don't rely on his notes for the test. You really need to practice and study. If you do the homework he assigns and the practice tests you'll be fine.

The first A I've ever gotten in math was from this Loschak. He's kind, honest, and you can tell he loves math enough to explain it to his students, you only need to ask him the right questions. Do the hw, it helps so much! Create a formulas sheet and refer to it, also save the test keys for the final. Lastly make a friend in the class and study!

I took his Statistics class and I'll be taking his Algebra class. Attendance isn't technically mandatory but all test material is covered in class and if you don't show up you'll fail every test. His tests are nearly identical to the homework, but you have to work fast. It's a challenging class but it's easily passable if you put forth the effort.

Professor Loschak is honestly amazing! I'm great at math, but I still think he teaches well and cares about students' understanding. Make sure to attend his classes and ALWAYS do your homework. He won't go through HW; however, his tests are very similar.

Love this teacher! His tests aren't too hard. For people who excel at math, he goes too slow, because he gives lots of examples but I like it this way. He explains things clearly with tons of examples to make sure you understand it. Really cares for his students' success. He's nice and funny too. Would take him again and again.

He takes attendance but only uses it if you are begging to get your 89 up to an A. But you should definitely go because he explains each lesson so well and goes over hw questions. hw for each lesson but it's never due. do the hw because each test is the exact same thing just different numbers. all 5 tests are open book open note. so easy to pass!!

Let me just throw this out there; the people (who took MAC 1105) and rated this professor poorly are basing it off of the fact that they don't get a lot of "cushion" grades. He's a great professor and if you can't put in the work to pay attention and ask questions when you're confused, don't blame him. He's very patient, and a generous grader.

In hindsight, I wish I would have developed better study habits sooner ! Mr. Loschak gave me all the tools I needed to succeed in his class ! His notes included key points that would be included on the test, and he advised to do all the homework for extra practice! He is caring and wants students to succeed, but as a student you have to do your pt

Great professor! Very good teaching skills and cares if his students are doing good or not. Que goes a bit fast but if you pay attention you wont have any problems. His tests are exactly what he teaches and he gives credit even if you did not get to the answer

His tests are not multiple choice. Fairly easy if you do the homework. Homework isn't for a grade but its extremely useful for the tests. He will not bump you up. I got a 79 and didn't bump up. He does curve each test slightly by 5-10 points.

Great Professor. Took session 2 over summer. Homework is optional, crucial in passing, and not graded. Only grades are tests. First and second test no note cards, third test you can use 1 note card, fourth test 2 note cards, fifth test 3 note cards. Takes attendance in case you end with an 89 he'll bump it to an A. Do homework and do note cards.

So I currently just withdrew his class, his class consists of a lot of homework but isnt graded. He gives five tests per semester, and your lowest grade can be replaced by the final. Hes a good person and a good professor. Reason why i withdrew from this class is because im not the best test taker. Take his class if youre good at math already.

Best math prof i have ever taken. Took MAC1105 with him on my third(and last) try and finally passed. He may not grade homework, but if you actually do it and just study you will pass! I went from getting all F's on math tests to all A's. Just takes time and dedication.

5 tests in total + a final. Homework is optional but HIGHLY RECOMMENDED because he styles his test EXACTLY like the homework just w/ different numbers. HIs lectures are good because he does examples from the homework. Do your HW & you will pass. He adds 10% to your test if you show up in class to take it!! Some concepts were hard but most were easy

Even though he grades tough he is very passionate when explaining. You must work hard and study a lot but is doable.

Mr. Loschak rocks! His class is not easy but he is a great professor and the stuff he teaches you is actually applicable in the real world.

Prof. Loschak is a really nice guy and a decent teacher but if you struggle in math, do not pick him. Grade is an average of 5 tests and the final. Lectures are at a decent pace and he will help if you're struggling after class. Tests are all free response except the final. Take good notes and do the HW, and you might pass.

Professor Loschak is an okay professor. If you don't understand the material or ask questions you won't pass. Not to say he's not a great person. He's easy to get in contact with and will answer any concerns you have. I definitely suggest if math isn't your strongest subject look for someone else.

Prof. Loschak is the first teacher that have ever made math classes fun for me. He is very funny and caring. The material he's teaching is tough, but he explains it very well, and as long as you do you homework and ask for his help when you need it, you will be just fine.

He was a pretty fun teacher, he gave many examples in class and let other participate on each question. However, if you didn't say something he was writing, he would press super hard on his marker. Only has 5 tests, each being 100 points and one being 200 (final). Make sure to study for the test. Homework isn't mandatory, but suggested.

In my personal opinion, he is a really good professor, homework it's not graded and he doesn't use MyLab. You will have 5 test and one final but the questions are similar or even the same ones as the examples in class. He always try to involve the students in the class and makes sure that everyone is understanding.

Even though the only grades are tests. Professor Loschak explains the material well. He does not believe in MyLabs but there is an option to study using MyLabs, he just won't grade your work because there is no homework grade. If you know how to study and take tests, this is the class for you because Horacio genuinely seems like a nice guy.
