yo manly! He taught the flipped calc (lecture vids online and worksheets are done in class). It sounds a little odd, but it's very manageable. He gives a quick review of the video before handing out the worksheets to work on. The worksheets are participation. He knows the material and can explain things well if you ask him, same test as traditional

Dr. Manly is a great person, but his classroom is flipped. Dr. Keeran makes the exams and has created a lecture book with questions identical to his exams. I recommend taking his class if it is your first time in calculus because it will give you an advantage. If you do have calculus background, Dr. Manly's flipped classroom is the best!

Dr. Manly is one of the nicest professors at the University of Florida, and it is only his first semester! He is a kind soul. He only teaches flipped, but the extra practice was a must for the exams. He prepares you really well. His short explanations are better than the flipped videos that you are "supposed to watch." Nice and caring guy!

Calc 2 isn't easy, but Dr. Manly makes it very manageable. He does teach flipped, meaning you watch the lectures at home and do worksheets in class, but he does give short, 10 minute reviews at the beginning of classes. He teaches more in those 10 minutes than most calc professors can teach in 50. Overall you really can't go wrong taking his class

He didn't really get a chance to teach much because this was a flipped class, but this guy was clutch. He rounded my grade up over 1.5% to the next grade boundary and he is always in favor of curving exams even if the other teachers aren't Calc 2 is very hard. Make sure you study a lot.

Professor Manly is by far my favorite professor at UF. I have had him as a professor for both CALC s and DFQ. I also watch his youtube lectures for my CALC 3 class because I don't like the way my current professor teaches. He is so knowledgable about math and loves what he does. He is so good at explaining math concepts.

Manly is the best professor I've ever had at UF. I had him for Calc 2, 3, and Diff Eqs, and he made much of the material super easy to understand. He is very relaxed and responds to emails quickly. He does allow for some fun every now and then, showing us his cats when he is lecturing from home. Would take again!!!!

AMAZING LECTURES AND MAKES CALC 2 EXTREMELY EASY TO UNDERSTAND. Problem is that your grade is decided by 4 exams.

Dr. Manly is the best math professor at UF, hands down. He is really kind and caring and knows the material very well. He often will show us shortcut/simplified methods to solving a problem fast. He didn't make the exams for the class tho, Prof Demas did, so I made sure to watch both professors' reviews. Overall he is a great professor.

The man, the myth, the legend, the GOAT. I had Dr. Manly for Calc 2 and made sure to get him again for Calc 3 and Diff EQ. Dr. Manly drops 81 like Kobe every time he gives a lecture. He is the best math professor at UF easily; I'm now in the second half of my math major reminiscing back on the days in his classes. 100% recommend.

Just an awesome professor. Explains material clearly and articulately. Has high standards for himself. Consistently opens up the floor for questions and will answer all of them. The class is a lot of busy work, but exams do not have surprises, so most people do very well.

Ian Manly is a great professor and would definitely recommend him, I took him for Calc 2. Make sure to attend every lecture because it can be quite easy to fall behind, with a lot of new material each lecture. Exams were difficult but as long as you put in enough effort you'll pass.

I loved this professor! He was an awesome lecturer, made time outside of class to meet with his students and actually cared about my success. The content of this course is challenging but I would take it again with this professor.

HUGE BLOW TO UF's MATH DEPARTMENT FOR LETTING HIM GO. Dr. Manly is a true Rockstar in lecturing, he is an elite professor. The way he is able to get knowledge across is unparalleled, would not be afraid of putting my money on him being in the top 1% of lecturers.

He is one of the best professors I had and is the best math professor. Nice lectures, fair grader, explains the material very well. He does not make the exams, so go to prof. Demas' reviews.

Had him for Calc 2. Excellent teacher. Explains concepts really well that might otherwise be complicated. There's quite a bit of homework but it ranges from simpler to more conceptual problems - all are necessary to learn the material. His practice exams are pretty similar to his actual exams, use them as much as you can to study.

I wish I could have Ian Manly for every math class I have. He explained concepts extremely well and always kept Calculus II interesting. He was always willing to help students with questions and wanted every student to succeed in his class.
