Gallo is a nice guy and a good teacher for a difficult and uninteresting (to me) subject. Really cares about whether students are getting it or not; moves slow and explains a lot. Gives good reviews before tests; tests are challenging but in a good way. Isn't strict about attendance or homework, but is a class to keep up on for success.

If you've never taken Calculus before, take Gallo. He makes sure the class gets it before moving on. He jokes with the class and keeps things interesting. He uses quality overheads and gives the students a copy to keep notes on. He hands out a good test review and the tests are fair. He makes calculus as easy as calculus can be. A great teacher.

Everything in these ratings are true. Don't wanna say he's easy, but ... ? , The best part about Mr. Gallo's class has got to be his sense of humor and his wanting for you to learn. He'll stop going on with the lecture if anyones lost (Not his fault if you don't ask questions)! Definitely, a superb teacher without any doubts!

Mr. Gallo was a great math teacher. He tested what he went over. Explained things in simply terms and tried to be funny with some of his jokes. Homework was optional. Very helpful if you didn't understand something that he went over. Handed out powerpoint sheets that covered things that he was going to be covering in class.

The best math teacher I have had. Makes math easy to understand, especially for beginners. Quizzes every week off of homework, and you can use your notebook.

This class seemed like it would be easy to understand but this man made it hard for me to understand. Even using my resources him,tutoring, fellow students that took the class, videos, & all the above I still failed... He gave entirely too much homework at one time , with confusing instructions. He grades pretty harshly.

There was a lot of assignments, I would not recommend taking any other potentially difficult courses in the same semester as taking his STAT course. His lectures aren't very helpful due to the sheer volume of course material you are required to learn.

He's one of the better teachers I've had. If you pay attention in class and do your homework you'll get an A. He does give a lot of homework but it's pretty easy and covers all the material for the test.

Hes an incredible professor. Though it can get boring sometimes, he makes sure to throw a little humor in to lighten up the class. He made learning the material a breeze! Really easy to study bc study guides look just like tests. 10/10 would recommend.

Amazing teacher, really lays out all the material and takes his time to make sure everyone understands. Very personable and I enjoyed going to my math class. Give test reviews but does post a lot of homework. Homework can be overwhelming and teaches time management. Also posts "assignments" like projects but they are grade boosters.

Does not return grades in a timeframe that would help you prepare for the next test. No response to emails for weeks. During help hours will not give info that will help you know what you are doing wrong. An actual classroom setting may have been better before, but for online classes you can not find a worse instructor. Do not take!!

Professor Gallo is a great guy. Very caring and sweet. He will go out of his way to make sure you understand. He is very thorough in his teaching. I've never been great at math but he really helped to make sure everything was clear. Statistics is not an easy class but he does everything he can to teach well. Take him.
