Wouldn't take again

Bone to pick with this Prof., took class SPR20 & he did terrible w/ the online transition. Difficult to get in touch with. Never once knew my grade until the grade was entered for transcripts. Even before COVID19 shifted everything online, he barely taught, he mostly read from textbook. The YouTube videos that were provided after online did better.

Professor Leongson seems like a nice person, but he isnt the best professor. Hes not a very hands on professor and gave us all of the answers. Exams were always hard because he didnt teach us anything so we didnt know what we were doing. When he finally started to give us actual lectures they were not easy to understand.

he said, "I will not stop and answer questions, we have to get thru the entire text book" when someone asked him a question about a problem everyone was confused on and a lot of people dropped his class. homework was so so heavy. lectures were sooooooooo long and heavy.

This professor is one of the bests in LBCC. I am taking his class PreCal this winter 2024 and he amazes me on how he teaches the materials. I took this class before from a full time professor but I didnt like the style of teaching. Prof Leongson helps a lot his students and delivers his lectures in a very clear way through his great teaching skills

You will love this professor. He teaches so well and uses a lot of boardwork to explain more examples than what the book offers. He always break the ice and continue to keep the class going by his great attitude . I will definitely take him again in my next Math classes. He is very helpful and will give a lot of opportunities to boost your grades.

This is probably the worst professor I have ever had or seen. He takes way too long on easy topics and when it comes to the complex topics he skips right over them. He is not accessible after class, does not answer emails. The one saving grace is that he offers extra credit. The homework doesn't correlate to the tests at all. He doesn't belong.

Professor Leongson's class was tough as a winter semester class would be. however i had to use alot of youtube to self teach as his lectures are straight reading out of the book which i found hard to understand. Also for our exam reviews he would just tell us what each problem would consist of instead of showing examples and how to do the problems.

Leongson is an amazing teacher because he teaches with no expectation that you know certain material. His class starts from the ground up and only builds on what you are taught in class. I recommend not skipping class however or you could fall behind easily given that at least two sections are covered each class.

He wasn't very open to questions and made me feel dumb for the things I would get confused on. No office hours and he just rushed through chapters. He basically just reads the textbook during lectures and was not very understanding. I was a DSPS student and he didn't respect that at all. If math doesn't come easy to you, I would not recommend him.

I took the class of Prod Leongson last winter and I did great and understood well. I took it before but dropped the class as I dd not like the way the other professors teach. Pro Leongson used all the examples from the text which is very good and helpful. The class was intense obviously because its winter class. So we all the knew the expectations

Took Stats 1 over a winter course, it's in depth and missing even 1 class sets you back multiple sections. Lectures are only from the textbook, there's nothing prepared. No curves, no dropped tests, and all homeworks, 10-20+ questions per assignment are all due on the day of the test. Doesn't answer questions/respond to canvas/emails.

Tough grader

He was honestly not a good professor. He taught straight out of the book which was kind of hard to follow. He would also roll his eyes when someone would walk into class late or asked him about something. I would never take this professor again.
