He is such a nice professor! VERY helpful and funny...but who said he was hot?! He's jolly looking...
possibly the best prof i've had yet in university....and i saw him at the ultra mart
easily the best and most entertaining prof i've had....and he did it all while teaching calculus!!
He was a great guy to listen to and really liked what he was doing, which makes it easier to like what you are doing.
very enthusiastic
uhh was great, but not quite worthy of a 5
Joe Consolo is the man.
Joe Cunsolo is the man.
Preamble rocks. Cunsolo is a god!
The phrase "You and I know..." will haunt me forever. No, i do NOT know that, i beleive i'm paying to to teach me, not just fault that you know how to do the problems, i know you do, can't you at least tell me? Stop making mistakes and going

He was a great prof. He was easy to understand, and he liked to joke around in class.
He has a positive attitude, and much williness to help with some math course issues :) Thank you thank you!!
Joe teaches you math like the way your highschool teacher taught you math. With pictures and stories. But, very very easy to follow, and is incredibly simple and clear. In this sense, he rocks as a lecturer.
He never explained stuff, and he was SOO boring. He was not very good at all
This guy is my F*%$ing hero!!!!I LOVE YOU JOSEPH!
awesome
funny, helpful, boring but its math. actually dont mind it hes funny

I have never had him myself, but I'm pretty sure the guy across the hall fell in love with calculus, and Joe, throughout the semester, so he must be doing something right!
He really knows his stuff... I mean our entire notebook was MADE BY HIM!!! Thank you for making calculus fun
Joe is an amazing man. May Gizzy follow in his footsteps the path to math teaching greatness. No one is as excited about integrals as Joe. No one else in their right mind should be excited about integrals.
Unclear... he speaks with alot of "this thing, ans then you take that, and do one of these, and put it there" and he speaks with a lot of gum in his mouth. Kinda felt like he was just showing us what he knows...
Nice guy but not a great prof. He can do the problems and will at lightning speed. Just pray that you are good at math and have a remarkable ability to stay focused on endless "x squared with y and a i and a few numbers thrown" in problems. Impressive mind, just not sending the knowledge my way.
Boring!!! SUCKS AT TEACHING!! Do not have him for this class if you have a choice.
Awesome prof - I hate calculus and he made it easy to understand and clear (he got so excited we worried about his heart). If you get old exams they are pretty much the same, maybe changes the numbers around a bit, but it's useful. Easy to go to lectures with him!
He reminded us of Cantor :)
Seems like a nice guy, and is good at explaining tricky stuff. The downside is that it's still calculus.
Kickass prof. Passionate for math, even gets flustered by his excitment. Loved this prof. He's the man.
Awesome man. May he live forever. He can actually get you excited about math. Dont get on his bad side though, cuz when a man with taht much excitment turns his energy into anger.. well... keep teaching!
he was ok. i naturally get math so maybe im not a good judge. i found i got bored because for me he moved to slow but i can see it being very helpful for those who dont get it as easily. oh but sometimes he'll got too slow thru the lecture and then rush thru the last couple examples that are naturally more difficult to understand.
Professor Cunsolo is very clear and concise, and fantastic at explaining things. Very good for a first year course. He's extremely approachable ouside of class, and will sit down and help you understand whatever it is. I recommend him fully. The quizzes/midterms/exam are very fair, and he prepares you to do well on them. Very funny too!
He was really good at explaining things and made useful notes, but whenever we were behind he would rush through it and lose us all. You CAN NOT miss class or you will be ten pages behind and clueless.
"Always always" hehe Cunsolo is the awesome! :) especially when he points randomly to one part of the room (with 600 people in it) and says "Hey you with the glasses!" LOL anyways he's a pretty clear prof and funny at times too
Boring and very rude
He was soooo awesome! Such a good prof, really easy to understand and super helpful, awesome man.
No matter what the material, he's very consistent in his style of teaching and clarity and patience. Passionate for mathematics and funny in a cute way. He referred to himself as Q-tips as a balding white haired person when we talked about function relation between driver's age and # of car accidents. you won't get bored!
he blows into his microphone to get our attention, he hates when people talk, expect to be centered out
Do the modules and go to class. He is pretty boring and he goes extremely fast. Be prepared.
Amazing prof! Explains thing very clearly - makes all the concepts easy to understand. Definitely one of the best math profs at Guelph.
Excellent prof. Explains thing very clearly, in an easy-to-understand fashion. Definitely one of the best math profs at Guelph.
i do not like going to his classes at all. its boring and it feels like it takes forever. his teaching style is wishy-washy like "take this number and put that in there and thats the answer."
some overused sayings, and can sometimes be boring. but the pace is good and overall a good proff
He's alright, I'm undecided.
Amazing prof. I could not have asked for anyone better, and I have never done so well in math class before. :)
SO AMAZING. He makes me want to change my major to math!
an absolutely amazing teacher, could not have asked for a better math prof.
really clear teaching style, understood math way better this year than i ever did in high school
Very easy prof to understand. He has some funny mannerisms ("always, always always"), but that actually adds to the lectures.
Very easy professor with hilarious mannerisms. He sometimes gets lost and confused in his errors, but otherwise really knows his stuff about teaching and calculus. He is an example of how teachers should be
I almost failed calculus in high school, so imagine my surprise when I walked out of university calc with an 80! Some days I had a hard time following him, but he was sure to tell us what would be on the midterms and final. He is easy to listen to and his little mannerisms always made me laugh.Great prof.
"Low and behold..." He was an awesome prof and explained things very well; I strongly recommend taking this course if you're interested in calculus at all!
Prof Cunsolo is AWESOME ! he's very helpful too, you can go to his office and ask him materials that you don't understand and he will explain it to you clearly ! He's also funny !
Cunsolo wasn't bad, but wasn't great either. I'm not very good at math, but my peers who were did well in this class.
Genuinely sweet prof who cares about the students. His "long behold!" & "oh shame on me!" remarks never got old! But I found it almost impossible to stay awake through an entire lecture. Math @ 8:30 AM with Cunsolo for 1.5 hours was a bad combo. Felt like he was singing me a lullaby with mathematical terms. Thank god for those course notes though.
Good prof.I would recommend taking his class though he suddenly goes fast during lecture so stay tuned lol
Best prof ever!! He explains things very well and is always happy and funny. I'm getting way better marks in university calculus than I did in high school! Very cute old man :)
The greatest prof ever! he's so enthusiastic, funny and approachable! The course material is so easy, and he explains it so well if you don't understand.
love love love him. the cutest nicest professor there is! the actual class can seen to drag on but he is always very happy and cheerful.
SO nice and knowledgeable. He makes little jokes in class to make us laugh and they're cute. Love him!
I found that Cunsolo was not the professor for me. Although knowledgeable, his teaching styles were not what I was used to. He tends to baby the class and he taught things I learned in high school in a completely different way, which threw me off and confused me more.
