This is a great teacher, if he goes fast is only because it is a two month fast track class, this teacher really helps his students to understand the material, he is very easy going and even if you dont get it he will go over as many times as possible until you get, great teacher one of the best in North Campus.

Proffesor Baker was by far my favorite math teacher! Very detailed explanation for every section of the course and he will go out of his way to help his students. Gives out packets every week which are a detailed explanation of the lessons and can come in handy if you do not make it to class.

Mr. Baker is one of the most amazing math teachers I've ever had. He gives 4 testes throughout the whole year and a final exam. Yes mylabsplus is part of the course, however out of the eight mylabsplus quizzes he takes five of your best scores (divide them by five) and counts your mylabsplus quiz average as a test grade. SO DO IT.

Professor Baker is great!! Math is math, but he gives great explanations, tells you what is on the test and gives you extra credit. The textbook and homework helped A LOT. Mylabsplus is required so you might as well by the book, trust me this will help you. I passed with an A. And this was after having to retake college Algebra

Really nice guy, I found him easy to understand. Gives homework assignments/quizzes through mylabsplus, which if done are correctly mean an A is guaranteed for the tests, final is cumulative, so use your previous tests as reference. Love teachers that can make math understandable, he is one of them!

Professor baker is amazing, not everyone can make a 3 hour class interesting but he can. He is super clear and in the day of ALEKS where teachers can pawn off teaching to a program it is nice to know there is still hope. Make sure to do the HW and reviews to do well on the tests. He went out of his way to help me choose my honors project also. A++

Took him for summer. Three hour lecture two days a week, and I would't have it any other way! Only grading criteria were 5 exams, the rest was purely for your own benefit. I failed algebra once before and dropped it another. His way of teaching is so clear! He teaches the long version of the problem but also shows you the much easier short cuts.

Prof. Baker is the best math professor. Does not require textbook! Uses print outs of the notes in class and works with you in solving during class. Gives you a "sheet of gold" to tell you how many questions are coming from which sections before the test. Plenty of opportunities to ask for help. Very caring of his students. Very easy to understand

He is good at explaining. The lectures are long and tiring. He gave us 4 tests and 1 final exam. No quizzes. Homework was not mandatory. PRACTICE THE HOMEWORK! Test questions come from it. I came in this class not knowing much since I took college algebra many years ago. I practiced a lot and got 98 and 100's on my tests.

This man is an amazing professor who will go out of his way to help you learn/review the material. Math is not my strongest subject and I struggled with retaining the concepts but I ended up passing with a B due to his assistance. He is also very friendly and holds a great conversation. Definitely take his class, you won't regret it!

Professor Baker was by far the best professor I have had at Broward college. His lectures were easy to understand and the homework he gave was basically to force you to study. Although he gives a good amount of homework, it prepares you extremely well for the tests. He truly cares about his students and wants them to succeed. Highly recommend!

DO NOT TAKE HIS ONLINE CLASS. I had to due to covid. He made the tests extremely hard and wouldnt do that if you have him in face to face class. Math is not my strongest subject & if I wasnt able to use my notes during the test I would have failed. There were 4 tests and a final. I passed with an A. From the reviews hes easier to take in person.

he covers everything in class, so if u do miss class u most likely have to teach yourself the material. there are 6 grades entered. 4 tests, the final, and an average of your top 6 quizzes. As long as u know the material before test days, u should be fine. he reviews before every test & extra credit is given most times. take him if u take 1105!!
