Very clear, helpful and nice guy. Sounds like Jimmy Stewart!
he is one of the best math teachers
he's alright but it wouldn't hurt to explain things a little more.
Class lecture is clearand easy to follow, exactly follows book, answers all questions throughly, homework is clear, do the homework, and attend class and it would be hard NOT to pass his class.
I am a returning student to ECC and haven't taken any Math for several years. Professor Gill made a difficult transition more comfortable for me with his great techniques in teaching. Every day I learned something new and best of all he made it fun.Thanks
Best teacher i've had at this school.He will take all the time necessary to make sure everyone in class understands the problems.He has a great sense of humor that helps everyone to enjoy the class.I highly recommend him!!
I never thought I would ace math until I took Gill.He will make it fun to learn and coming to class and doing math hmwk will not be a chore.I got a D in Math 40, than a C as well as a C in 70, I got an A in Stats with Gill.Wish I took him for Math 40&70.
Mr. Gill is an excellent instructor who has a very calm demeanor and a sincere desire for his students to LEARN the material. Taking this class was an informative and rewarding experience.
He is excellent teacher I have ever had. His lecture is easy to understand. I really recommend his class!!
Very funny teacher! Make sure you do your HW and know your material for tests, otherwise you won't be happy.
Mr.Jack Gill is the best teacher I've ever had. I could never get good grades in Math exams before but I am getting strate As. That because the way he teaches is very clear and easy to understand. It's not because his exams are easy.
He's a really good teacher and makes the student understand his class.
Prof. Gill is an exceptional teacher. He is what every teacher should be, especially math teachers. His patience with students is his strongest virtue. He gets so much satisfaction in seeing his students succeed. He is definately a great teacher.
Mr. Gill is an exceptional teacher. He explains everything in detail with added humor. I came out of this math course with confidence! My only disappointment was that Mr. Gill was not teaching Math 70! He is what every math teacher should be!
MR. GILL HAS MADE MY RETURN TO COLLEGE AFTER 27 YEARS AN ENCOURAGING ONE.THIS CLASS IS FOUNDATIONAL FOR ME HIS METHOD OF TEACHING HAS MADE MATH SO CLEAR, HIS PATIENCE AND HUMOR HAS GIVE ME A POSITIVE OUTLOOK ON MATH,WE NEED MORE INSTRUCTORS LIKE HIM.
Mr. Gill has made my transition from employee to student very comfortable. He is exceptional in his teaching ability, giving clear, complete instruction and plenty of help in a fun yet educational atmosphere. He is a pleasure to have as a teacher.
Mr. Gill is a great math teacher. He has the ability to make math comprehensible and fun. The Math Department at El Camino College should hire Mr.Gill full time so I and other students can continue take his math courses.
People taking Math 10ab need help! This has been my chance after 20 yrs out of school to finally "get" math basics. Mr. Gill (as in Bill) is doing this for me with his humor, patience, years of experience and compassion for us students.
After a more than 20 year lapse in math classes I had a great deal of anxiety. Professor Gill very quickly eliviated my concerns. With his easy going manner and his very thorough method of teaching it was a pleasure learning Algebra not a chore.
Mr.Gill is an amazing professor. He takes his time when teaching and explains math in the simplest way as possible. Unlike other teachers, Mr. Gill wants his students to pass and is there to help you through. On a scale frm 1-10 I would rate Mr.Gill a 12.
MISTER JACK GILL IS THE SH*T. HE MAKE MATH ALMOST FUN. ALMOST....
PROFESSOR IS THE BEST!! HE IS SOOO HELPFUL AND VERY PATIENT. I WISH ALL PROFESSORS WERE LIKE JACK GILL. MAYBE EL CAMINO SHOULD HIRE PROF. GILL TO TEACH THE PROFESSORS HOW TO BE A BE ONE, ESPECIALLY OTHER MATH TEACHERS. THANKS PROFESSOR GILL!
I highly recommend Mr. Gill especially for those students who don't like math. He breaks it down well and makes it easy.
Mr. Gill is a wonderful teacher. He adds humor to math and it helps you stay interested. Every math teacher should be like him. He really cares about the students success. He explains the lessons very well!!
Excellent professor!! Explains everything step-by-step. Very helpful. Goes over everything before every test. Makes math easy and has a great personality, which makes the class enjoyable!
I'VE HAD MR GILL FOR 10A, 10B, 23 AND MATH 40. I FEEL VERY LUCKY TO HAVE BEEN IN MR. GIL'S CLASSES. I CHANGED CAREERS AND IF I HAD NOT HAVE HAD MR. GILL FOR MATH I WOULD NOT HAVE PASSED THE EXAM FOR MY NEW CAREER. I RECOMMEND HIM TO ALL STUDENTS.
I HAVE BEEN WITH MR. GILL FROM 10A, 10B, MATH 23 AND MATH 40. HE IS A VERY GOOD TEACHER AND HE TAKES TIME WITH SLOWER CLASSMATES, I WOULD RATHER HAVE HIM FOR ALL MY OTHRER CLASSES.
I had Mr Gill during the summer after my freshman year in high school. He was very helpful and made the class very enjoyable. I would love to have him teach Math , chem, biology and everything else in Berkeley so that I can be in his class.
This teacher is very good. He explains everything very clearly!! Best teacher for math at el camino.
Mr. Gill outshines any teacher you will ever have in any subject. He keeps learning interesting and classtime fun. I've had him for Math 10A/B, Math 23 & 40, and would highly recommend him to all students regardless of academic level.
Mr. Gill is what I call a "True Teacher". I have been through horrible teachers he explains well unlike most math teachers n el camino. he is the best math teacher I've ever had in my life. he made math fun for me, and he will make it fun for yo
nice guy and really helpful
Mr. Gil is a very nice man. Explains well and keeps you awake with his jokes i would recommend him to anyone.
What a teacher.He makes class fun and allows you to love math again.He is accomodating, understanding, open door policy,real classy gentleman, approachable, personable and without a doubt the best i have had in my entire school career.I will miss him in Math23, but maybe i am lucky for Math 40.thnx
Mr. Gill is the best! He is always there to help me in my math crisis. He is very relaxed and patient with his students,but still gets the job done.He is very fair with homework and tests. I am going to miss him and his great personality. I wish he was teaching math 70!
Excellent very patient and a beautiful sense of humor. If I had studied more I would have done better. The only thing is I would have liked for him to give more examples because you can only retain so much info during a class so I need more examples to follow when I get home. He's a great guy!
Gill rocks! Mr. Gill is a math teacher anyone would be lucky to have. He is very patient and just has an honest to goodness way about him. I wish I had him in all my classes not just math. Its his ability to take a subject and turn it into an enjoyable learning moment. I will miss him. Rock on Gill!
Mr. Gill is the best teacher he gave plenty of examples and offered tons of help during class he moves at a pace the whole class can follow. I had so much fun in his class and recomend him to everyone.
I have always been terrible at math, but I needed to pass it to reach my degree goal. With zero confidence, I faced one of my lifelong demons: math! With Mr. Jack's guidance, patience and terrific sense of humor, I have passed 10a to math 40. The key for me: do homework,ask questions, attend class.
One of the most patien teachers.Great sense of humor he cracks jokes makes learning fun. Attend class&turn in the hmwk theyre easy points.He goes at a good pace & helps you before & after class.Take him one of the best MATH teachers there.Itookthisclassbefore & didnt pass took it with him & got a B.
Gill is *Magic* for the folks who aren't good @math I suggest u take him u will b surprised @ what u can learn I have taken math 40 with another teacher & didn't pass but when I took Gill I actually learned alot. if u take Gill I'm sure all of ur fears about math will go away.. he has made math FUN!
excellent professor. Speed of the class is perfect for everyone. Braks down math equations to where you can understand what is happening. Extremely friendly. Jack has a very positive attitude and he stayed that way through the whole semester. By far the best math instructor that I have had in my entire professional schoooling years.
Awesome math teacher, he make math Fun and Easy he is a must take!!!!!
"Jack" sounds like Sean Connery and looks like brad pitt....j/k. he is the best math teacher I ever had. He is so funny that he never made math boring. I wish he was my grandpa.... he is so cooooooooooooooool...... give him an oscar!
Professor Gill makes math fun. His personality and encouragement, keeps you coming back. His reviews before a test will be of great value to you for getting a good grade in the class. I will be seeking out Professor Gill for Math 40 for sure! Thanks professor Gill, your a gem!!
Jack is the best teacher ever. He is so helpful and does not intimidate the class. He makes the class go by quickly because he keeps us entertained. If you want a nice, caring, understanding, helpfule, unintimadating, warm-hearted math teacher Jack is your man.

I have always disliked math. Jack is very patient and understanding. He will keep working the issue until you get it. He explains in a way you will understand. After taking Jack's class I am motivated to keep taking Math.For you new comers this is the instructor for you. No intimidation from Jack. He has a great attitude and a wonderful spirit.
He is the best! TAKE HIM!! I'll tell you why: 1. He has a nice personality. He's not mean. He won't embarass you in front of class. 2. He will tell you which problems to study for the exam. TAKE HIM!!!
Had him for 2 math classes & you have got to take him.I hated math in the past but with his patience & guidance, math has become my stress reliever.He is very personable, patient & understanding.TAkes time to get to know each of his students by first name. Loved the class.
Mr.Gill is one of the best teachers you can take.He has been so helpful. He explains everything clear. I had him for 10 B and Math 70. I could have Not gotton a better teacher.He will take his time out to help you with any problem you have. thank you mr.Gill. He is one of a kind. He is a outstanding teacher.
Professor Gill has made understanding math so much easier. I would recomend Professor Gill to anyone of my friends out there. He's the best teacher ever to have, especially when you don't understand math just as I didn't when I first started his class. Now, I'm loving math and it's all because Mr. Gill took the time to teach it.
I am very grateful for Mr. Jack Gill's approach to teaching. With all the years of teaching he has under his belt, he has tweaked his teaching style to compliment all sorts of learners. I believe he has taken into account HOW we best learn which is getting us involved. Not only is he a fair instructor, but a fair human being!
Mr.gill is one of the best math instructors at El.camino. he not only explains everything thoughly ,but spends extra time after class to answer any question that you might have. Mr.gill has made math fun for me and countless others.
Made the subject easy to understand. Allowed for questions and spent time with those who had trouble. Would recommend to anyone who needs a professor who takes the time to work with you.
GILL IS A VERY PATIENT AND UNDERSTANDING PROFESSOR. IT WAS A PLEASURE HAVING HIM IN MY CORNER BECAUSE MATH REALLY SUCKED BEFORE GILL. I'D RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE WITH THE NEED TO LEARN MATH IN A NON-HOSTILE ENVIRONMENT AND WHO WANTS DIFFERENT METHODS TO LEARN MATEMATICS.
He is the math angel sent from heaven.Thanks Jack
Mr. Gill is a Great teacher. He explains everything and goes through all the examples. Class was not boring and time flew by.
Professor Gill is an excellent teacher. I had zero interest in MATH before taking Math A and B. His teaching changed my attitude completely about math, now I have a better understanding about the subject. THANK YOU Mr. Gill You are the BEST!!!!!
Mr. Gill is an excellent math instructor. He is patient, easy to understand, and very fair in his expectations for homework and exams. This is my first semester back to college in about 30 years and this was my favorite class this semester. I would highly recommend Mr. Gill for Math 40 with a good understanding and a few laughs along the way!
Mr. Gill is a GREAT professor. I enjoyed going to class even though I HATE math. He makes it where you will understand the work. He has a great since of humor, and that helps a lot, when a professor isn't all "business." Mr. Gill is very approachable, unlike some professors.

MR GILL HAS BEEN ONE IF NOT THE BES PROFESOR I EVER HAD HE LIKES TO HELP STUDENTS BY TAKING TIME TO EXPLAIN EVERY NEW SUBJECT. HIS TEACHING SKILLS ARE PRETTY GOOD I ADMIRE MR GILL FOR THE TIPE OF PERSON HE IS. HE IS A SIMPLE TEACHER THAT GIVES THE MOST INTEREST TO HIS STUDENTS. MR GILL IS REALLY COOL!
great teacher the best in the world
Very clear and helpful for math 40. I have never been good at math but I understand it now more than ever. Be sure to buy the "new book" with mathxl password. Log on ot Mathxl and practice, you'll need it. His exams are not easy but they are fair. Gil U.R. Awsome, thanks to him I got an "A" on math 70 class and I'm ready for statistics.
Mr. Gill is an excellent prof. very clear and helpful. I recomend him to everyone I know. I passed his class with an A, took math 70 and with the knowledge from his class I got an A in math 70. Now its spring 2007 and I'm taking statistics. Use the math xl program that comes with the new books it will help if you are not good at math.
He is a GREAT teacher. Willing to help any way he can. AN AMESOME personality, it would be easy to stay in his class all day, but again it is math. MT means Math
Teacher is easy going and knows his stuff. Class was easy since it was just a review for me but he is a understanding person if you talk to him. HW was easy but it was time consuming. if he would teach math 70 i would take him again.
Mr Gill is a fantastic professor. Very helpful, and explains the concepts clearly. He's one of those professors whom you could listen to for hours,(despite the fact that he's teaching math) because of his amusing personality. That can really help if math isn't your subject. I feel well prepared for Math 70. Thanks Jack!
I highly recommend Prof. Gill, Taking his class was the best experience I've ever had in a math class. He is very easy going and helpful. He really created a stress free environment. As a seasoned student returning to school after many years, I looked forward to attending his class! Yeah Prof. Gill ! : )
THE BEST MATH TEACHER.. SERIOUSLY I ALWAYS TRY TO CHECK THE PROF BEFORE I TAKE THE CLASS & AS YOU SEE MR GILL HAS VERY EXCELLENT COMMENTS. DO THE HW & HE GIVES EXCELLENT REVIEWS FOR TESTS.
Prof. Gill has made my back to school transition a smooth one. He is the BEST for anyone who needs a step by step explanation/demonstration on how to work through math problems. His concern for the students along with his easy going nature and comedic timing has made taking his class memorable and fun! Thanks Prof Gill!!!
Mr. Gill is an outstanding professor. I learned so much in his class. My friend recommended his class and I am glad I listened to him.
great teacher. Fun to look at too!!!
MR.GILL IS THE BEST MATH PROF. I'VE TAKEN HIM FOR MATH 10A & 10B.I'M IN HIS MATH 40, AND I'LL BE TAKING HIM FOR MATH 70. SUPER EASY IF YOU PAY ATTN.TESTS ARE EXTREMELY EASY AND SHORT.REALLY FUNNY.NICE.AND HE ANSWERS ALL QUESTIONS.DOESN'T MAKE ANY BODY FEEL STUPID. HE'S AWESOME. IF ANYONE SAYS HE'S HARD..THEY'RE JUST UNHAPPY.=]]]
Mr. Gill is an awesome teacher. If you are bad at math, he is incredible at helping you understand. He is patient, kind,funny and has a geat soul. He allows extra credit, and helps in any way he can. Must take this teacher, no regrets at all.
This is the third time I have taken math 70 and I was pretty sure I would be passing with a C or worse. Jack Gill not only explained everything thoroughly but was also very approachable when I had trouble understanding a problem. He's very funny and makes you look forward to going to class. If you hate math he's the man to take it with.
Gil you are the best. I'm now a senior at CSUDH and still using your techniques to do math (from 2yrs ago). Already passed stats 1 & 2 and financing thanks to you. Students take this class you'll love it.
Simply the best math teacher hands down! always helped with problem areas, was more then happy to answer a question or stay after to help and very good sense of humor! I would take him in every level of math if i could. He made math much easier to understand and did his best on his part to make sure you pass....I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TEACHER!!!
very down to earth...if math is a subject that is difficult for you, than i recommend Mr. Gill as your instructor. He has great patience for his all students. WONDERFUL...he's crystal clear. Good luck...
MR. Gill is an amazing teacher, he passes you no matter how bad you are as long as he knows your trying an amazing teacher.
This teacher ROCKS!! My first math 40 teacher was a hot mess and I was starting to wonder if i was really that math incompetent. But then I started this mans class and he is the best!!! Teaching style is awesome and never looks down on students who want to do good! Very Helpful! The BEST
The best! You learn what you need to learn in a non-threatening environment while actually retaining information. He doesn't just let you off. He relates and makes the material work. Awesome!
Great Prof ! I hated math before Prof Gil. He walked me thru all the step and took his time to teach. We need more prof like Gil. Use the MathXL software that comes with the book. My grade went from a D to an A with Gil and MathXL. thank you
Mr Gill is the best professor in the world! This guy is El Camino's Top professors in my opinion. His jokes are hilarious. I'm always dying when he tells a joke. The way he teaches makes it fun and easy to learn! Easy A if you come to class everyday and pay attention. Too bad for you he won't be able to teach anymore after Spring of 09 =[ Justin B.
He is amazing! I am NOT good at math and he made it almost enjoyable for me. He takes his time with you if you need it. Tests can be challenging. Requires you turn in homework on day of exam. Do your homework ask questions and you will pass. He is GREAT!!! "This is not math bootcamp"
He is an amazing teacher!!! he is willing to help you in homework and in anything he's very funny. You will know he loves what he does he gives you lots of time to turn in your homework and the test are a little challenging but you will be prapared if you do the homeworl take his class or you will regret not taking him
Gill is the best. He provides a non-threatening atmosphere where you can absorb the information and ask for help. Even during the classes, he moves slow and wants the students to participate. It is though participation that you can learn. He really is an amazing teacher who should be appreciated and respected and never taken for granted.
Mr. Gill is best teacher I ever had.
One of the best math teacher I have taken in my whole schooling career.He is really helpful and makes you do homework; homework is due on the day of the test.He moves at a slow pace to make sure all of his students understand the material.Not a hard class just ask questions and make sure to do hw, show your work on the test to get all the credit.
He is the best math instructor ever, he has great patience, and a wonderful sense of humor. I enjoyed being in his class and learned so much from him.
Our Math 12 class during the summer of 2009 was very enjoyable and this was all in part to Mr. Gill's teaching skills. I'm looking forward to working with Mr. Gill in the future, maybe even Math 40 or 70, fingers crossed.
Prof. Gill is nice and easy to understand. You will enjoy his class and he enjoys participation....patient and professional
Mr Gill is the best math teacher I've ever had. He is smart,friendly,understanding and has great patience but most of all he totally cares about being a good teacher and making sure no one fails if possible I will always take his class whenever opportunity allows me to do so. He cares so much if his class has a bad test he cant sleep.
This guy is one of the best and nicest teachers at El Camino. I'm an English major, I've always hated mat, but this guy made it possible to not only pass the class but get an A in it. Highly recommended for anyone who has truoble with math or just finds math boring.
I was enrolled in his class for the Fall 2009 semester and had to drop. I would still recommend this teacher to anyone. He explains everything with detail and he is willing to stay after class and help you as well. I will have to repeat his class for the spring 2010. Excellent teacher; he is very nice and funny. Keeps you interested in subject.
Mr.Gill is an awsome teacher...i highly recommend him... he is very cool and funny!!
Awesome teacher! Took his class Fall'09. Takes the time to really explain problems. Very helpful. I highly recommend.
IF YOU HATE MATH AND THINK IT IS HARD THEN TAKE MR.GILL!! No kidding, I have always failed every math class and never understood anything. Not only did I get in A in this class, but Mr. Gill made me start to like math! He makes it so easy to understand, he is so patient and takes him time with every question. LOVE HIM!
Taking this professor is a smart move for anyone who wants to succeed in math. He uses humor to get his point across and makes learning some difficult comcepts very interesting. He explains the problems in detail, and is very patient with the students. He really wants us students to succeed. Excellent professor, highly recomended.
Awesome. He's hilarious and very attractive for an old guy. However, he teaches very well, it's crystal clear and opened in answering any of your concerns or questions.
Mr. Gill is a Godsend to students struggling with math concepts. He gives students every oppurtunity to succeed in math. I actually looked forward to doing my homework, because I understood the concepts. He is great for younger as well as older students returning to school. Take Mr. Gill if you want to succeed in Math. He is a five star professor.
he is by far the best math teacher in the world. words cant describe how patient and nice Mr. Gill is.
THEE ABSOLUTE BEST math teacher ever OMG he explains everything also makes math FUN! you heard me right FUN he wants all his students to do their best he also have a very kind heart He cracks jokes & have the whole class rocking Its was truly an honor to be one of his students I would recommend him to anybody struggling with math MR G. uR the BEST
Mr. Gill is the best. Math is extremely frustrating and gives me terrible anxiety. Not only did he keep my anxiety at bay but he taught me so much. Take notes the entire semester... they are helpful! Love him to pieces he RULES.
HE i very helpful and he teaches algebra well enough for mostly everyone to learn it.
Professor Gill is very patient and easy to learn from. I would definately take his class again.
Best math teacher! Explains everything very well, allows one-on-one time before and after class, and he's got jokes! I recommend his classes.
This guy is funny AF and super chill just do the hw and pay attention his test are SUPER short like only 20questions. Im taking this class right now hopefully I pass and go to MATH 73 in the winter
Mr Gill is definitely a teacher u want! if u want to learn math,he's the perfect teacher. he knows the material very well and is always willing to help out his students. also one of the best teachers ive ever had as a student. also a funny guy! again, if ur gonna take math, the first name to look for is jack gill!!
He is THE BEST
best teacher ever you want an easy A take him he is very clear understanding and makes math so easy i liked his class and he is very very laid back and very funny...thanx Gill ;) im waiting for him to teach math 73 and i will take him i took math 40 with him
Mature, Witty, Fun but get's right down to the class lecture & explains each chapter step-by-step for your understanding. With good attendance, completed homework assignments and high test scores, getting an "A" should be a cinch.
The best math teacher in the world. Hands down! Just go to class and you will do well. He explains problems step by step. And reviews before the test. If you don't do well its YOUR own fault because he is awesome and super easy going. He will also answer any question you have in detail. He cares more for his students than any teacher.
He is super awesome! It should be more than 5 stars. He cares so much and just wants students to succeed. Most teachers at Elco don't care at all and just "do their job" but Mr. Gill is really passionate about ALL his students understanding and doing well. So they can do well in life.
This guy is great! He's extremely clear and if you have a question he answers it and will keep explaining until you understand. He's really easy, his tests are cake. Gives extra credit.. His hwk is a little lengthy but he bases it off of effort. Got a B doing only 1 hwk assignment and barely attending class ; Thanks Prof Gill :) it was a pleasure!
Mr. Gill is seriously one of the best El Camino has to offer. He does get down to business, but he does it for YOU as a student. HE explains things well and does reviews prior to his exams. I'm horrible in Math but I passed with an A. HE ROCKS!!!
What else is there to say except he is a really good teacher. He knows the material and explains it well. He's also very personable and is willing to answer your question without making you feel dumb. He also offers extra credit which can come in handy. Just put forth effort you will pass
Really caring man. great professor. Funny guy. If you have the chance take him, he will make you like math O.o
One of the best teachers at El Camino Compton Center, explains the work, you leave out of his class with a smile on your face knowing you have learned and understood everything that he explains. I recommend him highly. If you are having problems in math take mr. gill and attend class everyday and you will become an expert.
One of the best math teachers at ELCO. I love the fact that he doesn't make you feel dumb, when a student asks for his help. He shows you how to work pbroblems different ways. Not just from the book. I highly recommend Prof. Gill. I have always hated math, but he made me understand it and like it. 2 thumbs up!
he was a really great teacher. Always was in class 30 mins before class and always stayed after class which made him always available. He always gave chance for extra credit by doing homework problems. Likes to joke around but always somehow relevant about the class work. He was very good at explaining and I would recommend him greatly.
Was a pleasure to be in his class.
Hands down the best teacher I've ever had at El Camino. He goes through all the problems you need help with and explains everything clearly. He won't put you down for not knowing how to solve a problem only help you out more. Great teacher if you can I highly recommend you take him !
amazing teacher. as the typical college student I leave the hardest subject towards the end, Professor G. is the best hands down.. super funny and very helpful. do the work and I promise you will pass!! must take!!!lesann
Best teacher ever!!
I highly recommend taking Mr. Gill's class if you struggle with math. He is very patient, helpful and explains things clearly. He genuinely wants his students to succeed. Also, has a very upbeat and positive personality, which makes going to his class fun!
Very nice Professor! Attendence is NOT MANDATORY which is awsome show up two classes before the test so you know when they are, once you catch on to hoe long the lessons take its easy he goes slow, but its really easy to understand!
The best math teacher I have ever had!!! I usually struggle through math, and am excited to pass the course. But Mr. G is so skilled at teaching math that the course was actually fun! I think every math teacher should sit in on one of his classes to learn his teaching methods.
Professor was great! Very easy to follow and had a great sense of humor. He always did great reviews before the test so you knew what was going to be on the test.
Mr Gill is an excellent Teach. He took time providing several examples and took the time after class explaining. I wish could teach Math73
I honestly don't understand these ratings.. I have no clue how this professor could get such high reviews. First Off, His Voice is so monotone it will drive you crazy. No offensive Prof. Gill Second, he does not explain every single thing in detail, so if you don't already understand everything too bad. Test are simple, Lectures are long. Nice Guy.
He is the best teacher ever! Very laid back attitude, explains everything well, makes jokes to keep class bareable, and VERY EASY TESTS! hes like the coolest old guy ever :D
Mr. Gill is an excellent instructor. He is passionate about his work, he spends Extra time helping students, and he gives students every opportunity to succeed. He is animated and funny and he makes the class interesting. I never enjoyed or understood math before I took his class. I highly recommend him for any math class.
He is a great teacher. He goes through what he is teaching very thoroughly. He prepares you for the tests and goes over the tests with you. Homework is optional but it really helps with tests. If you pay attention to him going through his lesson plan you will pass this class easily.
Clear during classroom lectures, homework will help w the exams during your semester, the test review is exactly the same material you will be tested on Be sure to use the resources available on your test review page in ur book download the QR reader app scan the barcode to get a live tutor for more help awesome!
Mr. Gill is an exceptional teacher. he is very smart, knowledgeable, and willing to help anyone of his students. i had a great time in Mr Gill's class and i would take his for another class if i could. as long as you show up ON TIME, do the homework and take an hour or two out of your day to study you WILL pass.
Mr. Gill is very fair in all areas. He is very approachable, available for questions, explains difficult problems in a way that is easy to comprehend, and has a sense of humor that most lack. Although he gives ample time for homework, don't try to do it "last-minute!"; we had 11 sections assigned prior to each exam (we had 5 exams). Fun Class!
Professor Gill is very silly, I actually learned a lot in his class and I'm taking him again for summer.
Mr. Gill is one of my best math professor ever before I had. He is a very dedicated teacher to teach well their students. Of course, you have to do your homework and study for each test.
Absolutely amazing! Can't emphizes it enough!
I had Mr Gill for both math 23 and 40 and I defintely would have taken him for 73 if i could have. He is hands down my FAVORITE teacher and the reason I noe enjoy math. I passed bith classes with A's. He's very helpful, funny and understanding. There's absolutely no reason at all why anyone should fail his class. He's awesome!
I would take Professor Gill for every math course if I could. He is clear, amusing and very helpful.
Dropped math 73 and waited an entire semester to take Professor Gil again. Took him for math 23, math 40, and now will take him for math 73. Hopefully stats too! He's the best math professor I have EVER taken, and I SUCK at math. IM TERRIBLE! He makes math fun and surprisingly easy. The only professor I will ever take. Take him!
Mr. Gill is hands down the best professor for people with math anxiety, like myself. I took him for math 23 and it was the first time i ever received an A on a math test and the first time I ever got an A in a math class! Now I have the confidence to do higher math functions. I will take him again if possible!!
Mr. Gill is more than a flaming hot Chili Pepper - he's a 3x GHOST CHILI PEPPER! I have never had a teacher who so loved his job and students as Mr. Gill. If you happen to get him as your teacher, you are most lucky! This is a teacher who genuinely CARES about EVERYONE in his class, and your odds of success are great!
Mr Gill is the best professor anyone could ever have. Am telling you from experience this man knows what his doing, I got 100/100 though out in all exams. I wish I could take him for all my maths classes. I never leave reviews on here but I had to. In my opinion his the best professor in elcamino, his very clear in making u understand. TAKE HIM
This was my first math class since 1979. I was nervous and math is still very hard for me. Mr. Gill was very helpful and approachable, and his lectures were clear. Excellent teacher.
Easy class. Great teacher. He really works with you.
best professor ever!!
2 words: BEST PROFESSOR! that's all that is needed. MUST TAKE!
so easy I really thought I had no chance of passing I'm so happy I didn't drop the course .
Oh how I miss Mr. Gil. He's honestly theEE best. I'm currently taking math 73 and wishing it was him who was teaching it. I followed Mr. Gil from Rio condo all the way to Torrance just to take math 40 with him. Mr. Gil is a fair grader, do your homework and study, but if you suck at math you will magically understand with his teaching. TAKE HIM!
very clear, answers questions, doesn't get off topic. I've always been horrible in math but because of the way he teaches i have a way better understanding of the subject now. The book is only needed for hw. Before the tests he has a review of all the sections that will be on the test. Would definitely take again.
He is one of the best professors I've had! He is funny and loves to teach. He assigns hw every night but doesn't need to be turned in till exam day. I suggest do it every night. He doesn't require the text so you shouldn't buy it. Just go to the library and look at that book. He gives extra credit problems at the end of the exams.
great teacher!
I've been waiting for this moment. Honestly, words cannot describe how great Mr. Gill is. First off, his teaching is very good because it's so simple. It's super clear and I feel more confident about math. He is super funny and has a beautiful personality. You should take this class! Jack Gill is an angel from heaven. God bless you Mr. Gill!
Awesome Teacher. Goes over the lectures enough that you understand the sections plenty. Drops lowest test. Just do all the homework and you should pass the test and class easy.
Great teacher. I wish he was a full-time professor.
He's the best math teacher ever.
He explains so well and if you do not understand, he will explain it again. He also gives tips that will help you work on the problems much faster.
This is the first time I've ever been happy going to school for a Math class. He's a great teacher. He cares about his students and he wants everyone to pass his class! I'm taking his class in the Spring! That's how good he is. He makes Math, fun and bearable
Best math teacher ever! He loves to interact with the students and clearly explains each problem. He really cares if you pass or not, he did give a bit of extra credit too! Overall just a great teacher, he really isn't a regular math teacher! I'm taking him in the spring because I love his teaching so much.
Mr Gill was a GREAT math teacher -- the best one I ever had. I was afraid to take Statistics for years due to all the horror stories I heard about how hard it was. Mr Gill brought hard to understand math problems down to a layman's level -- very understandable and easy. You can't miss any class though. Got an A -- the only A I ever got in math.
Math was very difficult for me. I learned a lot! Professor Gill has made and will make a difference in your life. Why? Because he is fair, encouraging, has a great sense of humor, He's earned the respect of his students. He's wise & understands what all GREAT TEACHERS SHOULD KNOW! learning is a two way street, & there is more than one way 2 learn!
As a person who hates math and has a difficult time understanding it; Professor Gil was amazing! He is extremely kind, helpful, and patient. He doesn't call people out randomly nor makes any student go up to the board and work out problems. He offers tutoring before and after class; he also gives you other options for tutoring. I recommend him!
This professor is very old, but very young at heart. He is always trying to sound cool and hip and is very adorable. As for the class, do all the homework and pay attention during lecture, and you'll be fine. He is happy to answer any questions you have. He does speak quietly so you might want to try to get a spot near the front.
He is an excellent professor. He is really nice and considerate of his student. He is really helpful . I loved the way that he thought in the class. He will work problems until you get them. He also clarifies questions in class. you have to do homework. if you get a chance to take his class Do it!!!!! I learn a lot in his class, I Appreciate him.
Best math professor I have ever had. Math 40 will be the first math class I have not had to retake since before high school. I came in to the class knowing the very basics, and left the class being competent. He is an amazing teacher. Very caring and understanding personal issues and so on. Take professor Gill if you can, truly the best option.
Best math professor! Math 23 was not boring. Pay attention during lecture, do the homework.
Great professor! You will have to do some studying, so pay attention and do the little homework he assigns. The lectures are easy to understand and he will go over something if you ask. I hated math, but he made me realize I'm actually competent. He also drops one lowest test grade. Super lenient and understanding! Ask him for help if you need it.
I do not like math at all plus it's been along time since I've had to do math problems. He made me feel like I can do it. He didn't take attendance but knew our names. He reached out to the class if they needed extra help. He gave plenty of extra credit which was amazing ! I wish I could take him again for math 73!
Professor Gill was awesome. I enjoyed his class very much. He makes math understandable, jokes around, & cares about his students. He gives extra credit, collects the homework, lectures are great, & answers all the questions you have. If I could I would take him for the rest of my math classes. Pay attention, show up to class, & you'll pass.
He's the BEST math professor ever! You won't regret taking his class because he's not like the other math professors (mean & rude) I wish I could take him for all my math classes
Amazing he makes everything so simple and easy to learn. I struggle a lot in math and i was still able to pass. Take him he's the best!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED his class , I would DEFINITELY take it again!
Prof. Gill is the best math teacher you will never take. He makes Math easy and understandable.
Currently Taking! Prof. Gill is an awesome prof. He gives you weekly HW assignments that reinforce his lectures. Then reviews and gives a mock exam to give you an idea of what's on "THE REAL" exam. He makes himself available to help after class and if let out early, he stays and helps too. He makes sure EVERYONE understands, and he isn't boring! :)
Prof. Gill is great at teaching math even to someone like myself that hasnt been in a school in a long time. Math was never my favorite but he made it fun he really takes the time to make sure everyone understands. Do extra problems for extra credit! mock exams to give you a taste of what the real exam will be like. All-in-all a great guy. Awesome!
Decent amount of HW. Do extra problems, for extra credit. Extra credit can boost grade at end of term; if he sees your a good student. Helpful, patient, let's you ask questions. He takes his time in going over all material. Lets you use e-book version of text ONLY $45.00. Wish he taught more classes so I could take all math classes with him!
Great professor! Made me dislike math a lot less. Very very helpful, passionate, and dedicated about his teachings. Really wished he taught more classes because I would take every math class with him. Take him you will not regret it, you will learn a lot, and hear a lot of funny jokes! :-)
AMAZING professor with amazing, surprisingly fun, and clear lectures that are actually reinforced in the homework assigned. I recommend not missing class if possible, especially on review day. As far as tests go, what he lectures is what he puts on the tests, there are no surprises with him. Prof Gil, you truly are a chili pepper!
Professor Gill is a clear and simple lecturer who throws in enough humor to make sure you aren't miserably bored. His tests are moderate in difficulty, and is very patient when explaining the material. Great guy.
In Middle school and high school I HATED math and thought I wasn't good at it. Mr, Gil changed my perspective on the subject and for the first time in my life I got an A. He explains everything so well and doesn't make you feel stupid for asking questions. My favorite math teacher of all time.
very caring and as long as you don't disrupt the class, he will make sure everyone is having a good time. no matter how dumb the question is he will help you. good for people who don't like math. hell help you.
Professor gill is great! Paying attention in class + taking good notes getting a good grade. Lectures are very informative. Make sure you a show up to class for them. If you don't understand something ask and he will be more than willing to help you out. I really recommend you take his class. They fill up quick so hurry and register asap!
Professor Gill is an amazing teacher. I took him during the winter session and I was a little worried because I'm not so great with math. Prof is super straight forward, show up to class or else you won't know the material, homework is light, and really take advantage of the mock exams. Follow these instructions and you'll get an easy A!
I took Professor Gill during the winter semester, and I was a little worried because it was my first time taking a math class during winter. If you want to do well in his class, try not to miss class, especially on days he does the mock exams, which are so helpful! Also, he is really nice about answering any questions you have. Take his class!
Nicest, most understanding teacher who actually allows students to refute their grade.
Possibly the best math teacher I ever had. I took Pro. Gill for the winter session. You have to show up to every class in order to understand the homework and test. THE most important days to show up is the day he covers the mock exams. He pretty much gives you the test but with different numbers. I got A's on all of my exams.
You won't find a better professor for MATH 150 than professor Gill! If you're lucky enough to get a seat in his class, stay on top of homework, study and don't miss a class and take photos of lecture slides at the end of class. I have always struggled with math and I managed to get an A! Professor Gill is the best!!
As long as you pay attention in class, you should pass. He's an expert spoon feeder and gives you everything you need to get an A
Mr. Gill takes the fear out of taking Statistics, he explains that crazy math subject and breaks it down for anyone to understand the concepts. You will pass this class if it's with Mr. Gill. Just participate, do your homework and DO NOT miss Mock Test Days!
Gill is the best math teacher I've ever heard, he doesn't try to overload his students during lectures. If your stuck or confused about something he would simply go back and re explain that specific problem so your not left behind. He gives extra credit and does test reviews which is very similar to the actual test so don't be absent that day
Attendance is really important. Professor has 4 tests in total-(no final) so it is important that you do very well on test 1 and test 2, because test 3 is extremely difficult. The other three tests are pretty easy if you study. His tests are usually very similar to the review questions, so do not miss the reviews. I hate math and got an A.
Professor gill is amazing! I took him in the summer after having failed math 73 with ms. Alpern. I failed all her tests with Fs and passed all his with As that should tell you a lot. He gives a test every week but the day before he gives a great practice test (VERY SIMILAR TO THE TEST).
Professor Gill is the absolute BEST. He will give you everything necessary to pass. If you do the homework and study the reviews he provides before the exam you will pass, I promise you. Everything is straight forward. Make sure to show up to class and take good notes. He will answer any questions you have. Professor is very approachable.
Amazing professor! He is a very nice man and breaks down all of the work so everyone can understand it. Pay attention to his notes and you will be just fine on the exams.
Gives you a "caluclator packet", formula worksheets and literally all the tools you need to pass the course. Given, statistics is SO HARD and the class was at 6:30am, he would give his best effort in teaching the material we needed to know for the exams by "spoon feeding" us. DO NOT miss his mock exam days, it will be identical to the actual exam.
Prof Gill is the funniest and most kind math instructor Ive ever had. He is extremely helpful by giving calculator packets and formula sheets for exams. He doesnt take attendance but if u skip class u miss a lot of material thats hard to learn on ur own. He makes stats feel like a piece of cake. Hes extremely good at his job. Highly recommend!!
Professor Gill is the BEST!! The only way you can fail his class is by not showing up to class. He make sure all his students are understanding the class work. He does mock exam and the exam is similar to the mock exam. Attendance is important. I missed two weeks of class and missed out on so much information. Easy A if you pay attention!
Im currently taking his online course and its such an easy class to pass. Ive always struggled with math but his lectures are straight forward and the tests are exactly like the study guide. Along with that the homework is fairly easy as well.
He really makes stats easy to understand. Homework is short and simple! By doing extra practice problems and paying attention to the ES on the notes and to the practice exam, itll make the exams easier. Make sure to use your second exam attempt if you dont earn the grade you like; hell give you the higher score. 5 exams in total; no final!
This was my 3rd time taking Stats and I finally understood it. It's asynchronous so be careful you can easily fall behind. His lectures are straight to the point, when it comes to the exams DO THE PRACTICE EXAM. It's basically the exact same as the exam, so do it!! There is no final exam, 5 exams in total. I honestly wish I took his class my 1st yr
I was terrified for years to take statistics, but Mr. Gill made it soooo easy to pass. Before his class I thought I was terrible at math. Took his class online, and youll pass if you do the HW, listen to his lectures and do the practice exams. The practice exams are almost the exact same as the actual test. Just switches around the numbers.
Do yourself a favor and take Professor Gill!! Took this class over the winter and it was SO manageable. He provides prerecorded video lectures that are so easy to follow along. Professor Gill makes Stats simple to understand. Watch the lectures and do the homework it really helps! Also, his practice exams are legit the same but with diff numbers
Not only did I need Statistics, but I need to truly understand how to do it. The way that he explains and re-explains things is uncommon for a math class and it led me to for once in my life succeed in a math course. He is a gift to your educational journey and should win teacher of the year for finally giving me some math confidence. 10/10 course!
A student claims that the # of students who passed Prof Gills statistics class is dependent on Prof Gill and their own efforts Null hypothesis: # of students passed is independent of Prof Gill Alt. Hypo: # of students passed is dependent on Prof Gill (Claim) There IS sufficient evidence that Prof Gill is #1 @Teaching! Just look at all the reviews!
Professor Gill is AMAZING! I would NOT have passed statistics if I would have taken another math teacher. He explains everything so well and does NOT try to trick you. Do the homework, attend class, and REVIEW the practice exams and you will pass this class. I am most grateful for professor Gill and he will forever be my favorite teacher.
Best math Professor! Take him and you will not regret it. Made math easy and manageable. We had 5 exams and a separate support class with quizzes. He is so nice and approachable.
If you need thorough lectures where material is explained by step, make sure to take Professor Gill! His lectures are amazing and he stays extra time after class to help with any questions you may have. Make sure to study hard for exam 4 since the work gets more tedious, but still manageable if you follow along in class. Very respectable teacher!!
I'm a math major and Professor Gill made me find my love for math again. He was thorough with his explanations during his lectures. I would take him again in a heartbeat! He graded easily, A lot of examples too, he gives you all the necessary tools to pass. No final, 5 exams only (summer math 150 class)
Best Professor very specific and goes into detail while lecturing. He is always helpful and exams is what he lectures so it is very important to attend lectures. He is very friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend I took two courses with him one in class and one online. So far best professor at El Camino College!
Professor Gill is a real gem and a blessing to the el camino college students. He responded to my *many* emails about HW problems with thorough explanations. He was extremely accessible and the best math teacher I have ever had and one of the best teachers over all. I am so appreciative to have had the opportunity to take stats with Mr. Gill.
Super nice and easy math professor. I've never gotten an A before in a math class, and haven't taken one since high school. (4 years) The reviews speak for themselves, if you have the chance to take him, you would be a fool not too. His bird is funny too ask him about it and you'll laugh for sure.
I only gave him a 4 because the zoom class was kind of boring. But take this class, you won't regret it. I took him during the summer. He has study guides that are very similar to the exams, make sure you do those. Exam 4 is a bit challenging, so be prepared
I have never passed a math class before this class. all you have to do is the hm which is due on the day you have to take the exam. exams are rly easy since its based on the practice exam. def recommend.
I loved Professor Gills class. His humor is very amusing and he explains statistics very well. I never thought I would actually understand it. Theres homework on each lesson and 5 big tests, but as long as you study and pay attention you should be good. He actually made me like math a little more.
Professor Gill is by far the BEST professors here at el camino. If you pay attention to his lectures you are guaranteed an A in the class! Would definitely take the class again
hes amazing!! hes very patient with everyone, he loves interacting with his students. i only grated him a four bc on the tests, one small mistake and you get a lot of points taken off. homework is worth only a little bit of points. he dedicates a class day strictly for a study guide, which are always similar to what the actual test is like
Honestly this professor was one of the best I had, he only cares for students to pass his class and will help everyone to do so
this was honestly one of the best math professors ive ever had in my life. if youre not as good at math like I am, definitely take this class but make sure to pay attention and review the test reviews before the test. He speaks slowly which is great for grasping the material. DO THE HOMEWORK! it matters at the end. Good luck!
TAKE HIM! TAKE HIM! Prof Gill is a gem! He makes math so easy to understand, clear and straightforward. I am terrible, I mean terrible at math and this was my 3rd attempt taking this course. Prof Gill is by far the math best teacher I have had in my life. Be sure to put effort and do the homework and practice and you will be just FINE ;)
I had professor Gill for math 150s in-person and honestly is one of the better if not the best math instructor I have ever had! He is a kind older gentleman who will help and explain concepts that you don't quite understand. As long as you put in effort professor Gill will definitely guide you on the path to understanding the concepts!
Showing up to every lecture is extremely important, if you miss one you'll most likely fall behind unless you teach the concepts to yourself. Very good at explaining concepts (sometimes goes a little fast which is understandable given the time crunch) and is always available for extra help. Exams are very similar to practice exams.
I took this class during the winter and it was surprisingly easy considering it was a winter class. He's a little old fashioned but he is very helpful and cares about all of his students.
I took this Math 150 course online over the Winter Semester, lectures were straightforward and easy to understand. He would go over concepts multiple times and would go back to review something if someone had a question on it. Exams are very similar to his practice exams, so be sure to attend class when he is going over them. Take him if possible!!
I'm not good at math but this dude is awesome. Extremely patience and helpful even I struggle in math take him you won't regret it.
