This guy is awesome. I took him for college algebra and trig and he was great for both classes. I'm terrible at math but he teaches it so that people like me can understand it! If I had any more math classes, I would take them all with him. This was not an easy A but def obtainable.

He is my favorite math teacher of all time. I plan to take him for as many classes as he will teach that I take. Very direct and concise teaching style and he makes sure everyone understands. He will teach for a few minutes then immediately give practice problems in groups and then go over them, so you don't have to study a lot outside of class.

He breaks down the material in lectures so well that people that struggle in math could understand the math concepts. As long as you pay attention in class you should be fine.

Don't think about taking anyone else for Mac1105. He goes over everything in class thoroughly. If you need even more examples, ask him or there are more under your homework in the study plan. He provides pre tests too, so there's no reason for you to be stumped on anything. He made math breeze by all semester and was the best class I took.

This class is completely self-taught, and he provided no practice tests. The amount of homework was ridiculous (About 100 questions per week) and the tests/quizzes only had around 20 questions per. If you're not good at math, and you don't want to teach yourself, do not take this class online.

I would say if you take him online you are self teaching. However he is willing to work with students. Make sure you know all your resources in the class as I was unaware of the calculator the first couple of test. 9 quizzes, 3 test and the final are 85 percent of your grade so take those seriously.

Unfortunately, you have to purchase the textbook (about $90) to do the homework. The homework is worth a lot of points, but it's very easy. The unit circle and some formulas are provided on tests, and calculators are allowed. His class is very easy to pass as long as you show up and do the homework. Take him for an easy A :)

Going based off the reviews I can say he's probably a better teacher to take in person, but his online course is not the best. There are 3 tests that are heavily weighted, 2-3 long homework assignments due every Monday, he provides you with videos from Youtube so you're basically teaching yourself, and there are no opportunities for extra credit.
