He's funny but acts like a friend than a teacher. Doesn't follow syllabus, unorganized. No classwork, grade is base on HW online and 5 tests in class (very few questions about 4-10, making it difficult to receive a good grade). He assumes you know about chapters before he teaches it, difficult if you're a parent/work. Might as well take it online.

Professor Salgado is one of the greatest math teachers tbh. I had him for 1033 and then for 1105. I intend to go on to the other math classes with him as well. He teaches clearly. If you don't pass with him, it's really because you didn't try hard enough. He only puts what he teaches on the test and does a review before the test, piece of cake.

I Hate math but this professor made me want to go to every class. The course alone is really hard if you are not paying attention, but prof. Salgado made lectures VERY clear and FUN. He would make a joke every 10 mins and keep the class engaged. Just be actually present. 4 online tests, 1 optional final. HW is on mymathlab. Take him :)

Prof Salgado is great! I always struggled in math , but with him I actually learned. Very great lecturer , and when he teaches he makes sure you understand it before he moves on. Homework is on pearson,and he teaches questions from the HW, so you can do it while in class also.Super funny and chill guy, 100% recommend him if you want to pass Stats.

He's funny and seems to care about his students, but his teaching method is very unorganized. You will learn most of the concepts independently when doing your Pearson homework. If you aren't great at math in general, I would suggest someone who is more organized. If you are good at math, he is a solid choice.

He is nice and cares about you, but sometimes he is too giving and we barely go over the material while in class, felt like a waste of time sometimes. He is good explaining concepts. All hw is due at the end of the semester. Show you care about class and he will help you get there.

I am extremely bad at math and in all my previous math courses ive gotten a c. I actually learned in this class! he is a great teacher and if u are honest with him and dont understand something he will explain it. hw on mymathlab and tests are very easy if you study a little. attendance is not mandatory but im honestly so sad for this class to end

He's the best math teacher at MDC. He is amazing and makes his classes really fun but at the same time, he explains every concept step by step to make sure everyone understands. Has good office hours and is accessible outside of class if you need help. Some people don't like him because he won't increase your grade, but he will help you, take him!

This class is super easy he is not that heavy on homework you only use Pearson and have as many attempts that you need to get a 100 on the work. The test are multiple choice pretty easy if you practice and he tries to make everybody understand the subject. He is also really nice and relaxed.

He is a very acceptable professor. Be aware his lectures are NOT enough to pass the class (at least you are very good at math). Lot of HW and that's 30% of your grade, and then 4 test and an optional final. Test are not that hard 10-12 questions. You need to study a lot by yourself.

Professor Salgado is pretty chill and not a bad teacher. His lectures make sense and are easy to understand and tests are 10-15 questions not too difficult. Very laid back and does not stress out the class.

he's not a disrespectful teacher or anything of the sort, he's actually quite well and funny. only reasons i'm not giving him an amazing rating is because he's not a superb teacher, but he is quite nice. he says what'll be in the test and whatnot. it's very important to make sure you have all the material down before testing.

I took 1105 with Prof Salgado and it was the best decision, he is really nice and he actually was the one who helped me get the A because I had a low B, he is really nice yet the class is really difficult, but thats with any professor,he actually let you use your notes on every test, so make sure to take notes in class. Overall hes amaizing!

Didn't dread going into college algebra at 8:25am every other day. He's a funny teacher and not strict at all. Explains again if you need and offers to go to his office if you still dont understand. Has 4 test the whole semester but homework will help out your grade a lot! Definitely would take him again!

Prof. Salgado made this semester enjoyable. He's kind, patient, and always willing to help. He adjusts the pace for us and even moves exams back when needed. His open-note exams are a huge help. Even at 8:25 a.m., his jokes kept us engaged. A great professor—highly recommend!

He's a pretty chill and laidback teacher and has some funny jokes, the problem is that he's NOT available outside of class. If you have any questions, ask him IN CLASS because he'll RARELY respond to emails. Just don't procrastinate with hw and you should be fine.
