Awesome teacher! knows his stuff and teaches it very clearly and effectivly. best math class i have ever had.
Awesome teacher! I love him very much! Strongly recommended!
Anderson is amazing. A great teacher who is always ready to help with any question. No stupid question in his class. Incredible Teacher!
He is a GREAT teacher!
john was a great teacher took him for a block class and he made it extremely easy to understand. i would highly recommend him as a teacher his teaching style is great and easy to understand. he i very fair on his test grading.
John was very helpful and really wanted his students to succeed. He is a great professor for those who don't like math very much in the first place. He is easy to understand, and was by far the best math professor I have had.
Professor Anderson is a great teacher. He is very helpful, willing to answer all your questions, and you do all the HW/quizzes online which is very nice.
Jon is the very best math teacher I have ever had. Math is not my forte, but he made me understand in a way that made me feel like a math wiz. You can tell he loves teaching, heck he left some engineering job that paid him 100,000$ dollars a year to come and teach. He is the coolest math nerd I have ever met.
Jon is by far the best math teacher I've ever had. I would recommend him to anyone who has a desire to learn. He's willing to do anything for his students and really cares. He's extremely smart, which helps make class even more interesting.
BEST MATH TEACHER EVER!!! I took math 990 and i barely passed it but in math 1010 with him as the professor i am now a math wiz!! he explains everything crystal clear! very understanding of any problems you have, with the questions or missing class because of sickness or emergency. i would highly recommend him to everyone!!!
JOhn is the best! IF I didn't have him as a teacher I would have failed. and he uses a program called My Math Lab. IT is genious.
Such a great teacher. I wish he taught 1050. He explains concepts very well and is willing to help you. He uses My Math Lab for homework which I prefer over textbook.
OUR FAVORITE TEACHER ever!! My husband and I took his class consecutively. He's funny and totally grabs your attention. Makes learning math easy. He really connects with the students. ALWAYS there to help, responds to emails fast! Bonus questions on tests, very fair test grader. I would take 1050 from him in a heartbeat if he taught it!!
He tries to be funny, it's great
Jon rocks my socks! best teacher Ive ever had
Sometimes he is too smart for his own good because he moves so fast since math is so second nature to him. But overall he is a great teacher and very willing to help. Lots of extra-credit opportunities which totally help you on the test. I hate math but I definitely recommend his class since we all gotta take it anyways!
Jon is a really good teacher. He explains things well and makes sure you understand the concept before moving on. After having a different teacher for 1050, I've decided that I miss Jon!
Jon is incredible. An awesome teacher that explains everything.
So helpful and such a nice guy! That class isn't too bad. He's always open to help you out. One of the most helpful prof. I've had. Make sure to work hard and you'll do just fine! :)
John is the best math teacher I've ever had. He loves what he's teaching and cares about making things fair.
John is amazing!!! I hate math soooo much, but john really cares about his students and teaches so you can understand it i took him for math 990 as well. Take it from him for sure!!!
Jon is really helpful. I love that he uses MyMathLab- it's like having a teacher at home with you! He quickly responds to e-mails, and is very concerned with making sure students understand the concepts and are treated fairly. Plus in my class, he doesn't take attendance, which is awesome. This guy is a VERY good teacher.
BEST. TEACHER. EVER. I've learned so much from this class! MyMathLab is so great! It made it so easy to wrap my head around concepts and really understand what I was doing. Jon is a very caring teacher, easy to work, and willing to go above and beyond to make sure you not only succeed in his class, but truly take something away from great from it!
Anderson was the best Math teacher I have ever had! So helpful it was unreal... He honestly would do anything to help you understand and pass...He gives you so many great opportunities to get a good grade...unless you simply just never show up...EVER... you can't not pass this class!
Great guy, not the easiest to pass though. I dislike MyMathLab a great deal.
Best math teacher that I have ever had. If taking this class I would highly advise taking it from him.
He is the bomb. Has pre-tests that are almost identical to the tests he gives. If you do the pre-test you'll do well on the test. Do the work and you'll get an A. He's very willing to help you succeed and responds quickly to emails when you need help. Uses mymathlab which made the homework easy.
Jon Anderson is one of the best math teachers I've ever had. He explains concepts very well, is extremely willing to help you individually, and lets you know what to expect on his tests. He prepared me well for 1050, my only regret is that he is not teaching it.
Professor Anderson is by far the best teacher I've had at UVU. I hate math, but I was actually sad when his class ended! He uses MyMathLab so that was cool. Just take him, you won't regret it :)
Professor Anderson is a very great teacher. I took Math 1000 with him, which moves very quickly, and he was able to keep us caught up and understanding the concepts the whole time. If you show up to class, you will learn the concepts. He knows what he is talking about and enjoys what he does, I highly recommend him.
Greatest math teacher. He is a great person who cares about helping students learn the concepts. The class is a little fast, but with his help and easy-to-understand teaching style, it is really easy.What I loved the most was that he uses mymathlab, which is a great help in homework.
GREAT TEACHER!! He is willing to spend time with each student to ensure that the material is understood! He teaches in a way that is easy to comprehend, and make much more sense then those average math teachers who just walk through examples. He helps you understand the whole concept of each problem and why they're needed! Highly recommended!
Prof. Anderson is an amazing teacher. I personally hate school in general and math in particular, but this teacher helped turn that around for me. He genuinely loves teaching and takes joy in helping students succeed. There is a LOT of homework, but he's great at working with students to help them pass his class!
He is very helpful, nice and so easy to understand. The best Math class ever. Take him you will learn a lot ...
Professor Anderson is a great teacher!! I loved his class. He can be really funny at times and really knows his stuff. It's not the hardest class, but not the easiest class either. Be willing to learn and you'll get an A easily. Very recommended!!
Professor Anderson was very helpful. I have been away from Math a long time, and he really helped me to get back into it.
Jon is such a nice guy. I hate math and I was sick all semester, but he really helped me succeed. He is very willing to help you. Tests were multiple choice which was amazing. We also used an online program, mymathlab, and I loved that. WAY better than a normal text book.
Best teacher I ever had at UVU, and that is saying a lot because I HATE math. Jon was so helpful, and he let's you re-take the test, he is awesome.
Best teacher EVER! Completely helped you get everything took the time to explain what you didn't get! Always laughed in his class every single day. Amazing teacher!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (:
Jon is the bomb!!!! he has a great way of teaching! he helps you understand math!! with him i was able to be good at math when i wasnt before his class!! im very thankful fornhis help!!
Jon is articulate which is nice. He pays attention fo each student and tries to provide as much help as possible to ensure understanding for his students. Plus he's really fun. :)
Amazing Teacher. Do your part and he is willing to help you achieve your goal. He answers question in class and outside. 24 hrs I could said. I love his math lab and his teachings at classroom. Awesome. I f you want to learns this is your choice!!
Can't go wrong with Anderson!!! He is the most helpful professor I have ever had!! We could get ahold of him any time for anything to do with the class and he would respond quickly and respectfully!!! I highly recomend him!
One of the best teachers I have ever had, and that is not an overstatement. He catered to so many different types of students it was amazing. He made it work for every type of student. If you are good at math you will do well. If you hate math he will walk you through it. He truly cares for his students and wants to see them succeed.
YOU CAN NOR EVER WILL GO WRONG WITH PROF ANDERSON. HE WAS BE BEST MATH TEACHER I EVER HAD AND IS DANG SMART. HE WAS WILLING TO DO WHATEVER IT TOOK SO THAT EVERYONE UNDERSTOOD WHAT WAS NEEDED
He is the BEST! I transferred into his class mid semester, and he was very understanding and helpful. Great teacher, funny, and genuinely cares about his students' success! Great guy through and through, take his class, work hard, and you got this!
He is seriously the best math teacher out there. He genuinely cares about his students and their success. There is a lot of HW on MyMathLab but he is always willing to help. He literally responds to your email within the hour24/7.Doesn't throw any curve balls at you either. What he says, is what you get! Love him! PS: I HATE MATH but now, its OKAY.
Anderson's lectures are always very understandable and he encourages you to ask questions. There is a bit of hw. It doesn't count for your grade but will help you understand the topic. His tests have questions from his study guide. Study it and you should get a good grade. He also gives a lot of extra credit. He's understanding and uplifting.
Great teacher! I'm not very good at math but he works with you and tries to help you understand. If you try you will pass no problem!! I just wish he taught 1050.
I had been out of school for 5 years and was scared out of my mind to take a math class. He helped me better understand and remember concepts I had learned a long time ago. Went through each section seamlessly and I had no trouble doing well. Just do everything he asks and you will pass with flying colors, no doubt! Thanks Professor Anderson!
Super good at teaching, makes sure everyone knows the material before moving on. He makes his own tests, and they are pretty easy. He is also really lenient when grading. I would definitely take him again.
Professor Anderson is a great professor. I have never been very good at math but in his class I felt I was able to learn and understand all of the concepts. I would take math from him again.
Professor Anderson is not only one of the most caring professors I've ever had, he teaches extremely well! His goal is to make sure you understand, and he is very patient and approachable in helping you get there! I would have him teach me all of my math classes if it were possible!
Professor Anderson is hands down the best math teacher I've ever had. He's very detailed and step-by-step oriented in the way he teaches. There is quite a bit of homework but each assignment comes with a collection of videos that he made that explain each type of problem. Put in the work and he'll help with the rest. Wish he taught 10501100!
Jon is awesome. He took time to explain the content, was very patient with everyone and would go over concepts as many times as needed without getting frustrated. I highly recommend taking a class from him.
He is a wonderful teacher, I took math with him a year ago and if something is not clear for you he will go back and make sure you understand the content! Totally recommend him
Good teacher, very clear and easy to understand. All of the homework and work was online using my math lab, didn't need a text book just the my mathlab access code you have to buy. Theres a good amount of work but he helps and gives you the tools necessary to understand the concepts. Expect 1 test every week and a half.
For the most part, it's an relatively easy class. Everything is online through MyMathLab. Videos are boring, so just click the videos for credit and do the assigned problems. Takes a bit for him to get back to you, but he's very helpful when he does. Many opportunities for extra credit in each lesson and test. If you do the work, it's an easy A.
Great class! It is A LOT of work, he warns you at the beginning of the semester. This class is fast paced because its two classes. All lectures are online. Class time is used for answering clicker questions & going over concepts. Tests aren't bad if you've done the homework. Jon is more than willing to help if you ask. Put in the work & you'll pass
Best Math Teacher Evah!! Seriously, just go to class, do the homework and focus on the practice tests through mymathlab and you'll do great. He cares about his students and is an awesome teacher. I took his combined 1010 1050 class and it was awesome! Oh, if you do all your homework and follow the point system you can get tons of extra credit.
I took Math 1010 from Jon a couple of semesters ago, and he's still the best math teacher I've ever had. I'm attending a different university now and I still use his youtube channel for all of my homework. Math is something that's never come easily to me but Jon was always so willing to work with me and made things better.
I LOVED HIM! he is by far the best math teacher I have ever had!! I am not a math person at all, it does not come easy to me. He is an amazing math teacher and cares so much about each of his students! he gives you so many opportunities for extra credit! GO TO CLASS, watch the videos, and do homework, you will have an easy A. Definitely recommend
Anderson is one of THE BEST Professors at UVU. If you don't understand the math he will take the time to explain it. Watch the videos, do the homework, go to class and ask questions! At one point during the class, I had 103%. It is extremely easy to contact him through canvas and he will always reply. You will not regret taking this class!
Words cannot describe my hatred for math. Professor Anderson has taken great care to create understandable videos and very interesting examples to make it fun? Wow! I don't have enough characters to explain how good of a job he does! If you struggle in math at all, take your classes from this guy! He is very personable and will help you out!
He always responded to emails within minutes and went out of his way to help students immediately. All learning is via online videos, and you work with a group the entire semester. 3 group projects, 4 tests and the final, and a book report. GREAT professor who made math tolerable.
Jon is the BEST math professor at UVU. I took this class twice before and had a super hard time clearly. He made it possible for me to pass. Responds immediately extremely willing to help. Do your work and he really works with you to be able to pass the class. Seriously, any and all math classes, take em from him!
Took this class in the summer so it was a faster pace then usual, but in general it was a hard class and you really have to work for your grade. He's very smart and really helpful if you don't understand. Go to class everyday is something new & attendance counts. Just make sure to do the homework, group projects & assignments & you'll pass.
It is a unique math class, he is not a typical math teacher, and that's a good thing! All lectures are videos you watch before going to class. In class, you work in groups (so make sure you sit in the right seat on the first day.) We used OneNote & Excel for all our exams. He is funny and really wants you to succeed.
One of the best math teacher give ever had
Jon Anderson is an amazing teacher. He teaches REAL LIFE MATH (Math that is actually useful in life) If you would like to take a great GE class and actually learn aplicable math, take his Math 1035 class. Showing up is not mandatory, all lectures are online (But it helps to get personal feedback) You wont regret taking this class.
Really great professor. I hate math but he really helped me understand the concepts and made it interesting. I learned a lot in this class and he taught us how to use Excel and other programs that are actually applicable to real life. 10/10 would take again.
Not for students who need remedial help! Class 1035 online Gives intensive Homework which he says is optional and gives no points for but gets upset if it is not completed. Runs remedial class as 1030. does not understand people who struggle to learn math concepts. Requires you to know MS Excel and Onenote. Videos are him reading powerpoint.
He works directly with students, even online, and responds within 30 minutes if you email him with detailed responses and help. He is by far the best math teacher on campus.
Professor Anderson is awesome and very knowledgeable. He really cares about helping his students. You get to pick groups the first day of class and you will work with them every class period so choose carefully. Some of the subjects are confusing and difficult but he would always respond very quickly when you send him an email.
Professor Anderson is amazing. He is always available for questions and concerns. He is very accommodating and made the class realistic and life applicable, and I am not a "math guy."
Best math teacher I have had. Works well with his students and helps in every way he can. He posts videos of him doing the homework, projects, and for the final, it is very helpful. I have learned a lot and you can tell he loves to teach it. Lots of homework but im missing 20 assignments and Im still at an A. Exams he grades work not just answers.
Super awesome and realistic professor. Gives you tons of second chances. VERY HW heavy. You can easily get behind. I failed math all through school and was able to take this class by 1 point and I'll be ending the class with a B. You MUST participate and make an effort.
I have never been a huge fan of math and I was super nervous for this class but it has been awesome! We have a lot of homework but it's not too bad and Prof Anderson always has a video that walks you through every problem. We have group assignments every class so don't skip class! Overall a really good professor and an easy to pass class
Jon really cares! He is so patient and willing to work with you. He responds quickly to messages, explains his class clearly and you know exactly what to expect. He doesn't make the work-load light, but he makes it possible. I hate math and he was so good to work with that I still got a good grade.
Jon has by far been the best math teacher I've ever had. This was a 6 credit class so there was a lot of homework, but Jon gave clear and helpful tutorials for every assignment. He's also incredible nice and really wants you to succeed. He's quick to respond to questions and takes the time to help you figure things out. Really an outstanding guy.
Professor Anderson has been THE BEST math teacher I have ever had. Hands down. Really cares about his students, gives you every opportunity to earn extra points or redo your work. This class was quite a bit of work since it was a 6 credit online math class, but it was definitely doable even with a full course load.
I struggle with Math, and emailed Professor Anderson about my concern before the semester began. He was as kind and helpful then as he was through the rest of the semester. He cares about his students success deeply, responds to emails quickly and teaches in a phenomenal manner. I would take him again any-day for any class.
Jon is an awesome professor. He works with student to help them succeed. He values hard work, and encourages interactions with those in your groups. I definitely would consider taking another math class from him. He was awesome. Attendance isn't counted for a grade, but you must show up to class to learn the material. It will make your life easier.
My class was a pilot class, but Prof. Anderson was awesome! Math is not my subject by any means. More than 80% of his students who do the homework and practice quizzes, pass the class. He's upfront about what you are looking at & he's also very observant of the group projects in case someone isn't working on their stuff.
Jon was the best teacher I had this semester! He is willing to work with you and gives great feedback. He allows you to rework everything and gives lots of opportunities for extra credit. If he critiques your assignment, do what he says and you can get full credit. If you dont understand something, he will work with you one on one over Teams.
As a guy who has struggled with math for the majority of my academic career, Jon is a gem of a professor. This class was all I needed for my major so it was awesome to have a group project oriented and very easy class. He is extremely respondent (even on weekends) and is oriented on the student. You know he cares on learning and a stress-free class
Jon is a gem of a professor. He is kind, caring and so incredibly helpful. He responds to all messages very quickly and gives AMAZING feedback. The class was difficult because it was 6 credit hours but that was expected. I have struggled with math my whole life until this semester and it was all thanks to Jon for helping me grasp the concepts!
Jon is hands down the best professor ever. I am terrible at math but this class made me feel like I knew what I was doing. I learned so much and actually grew to like it! The class doesn't have a TA but instead a Math Mentor and he's seriously the best. There are weekly group projects, discussions, and other assignments but it is all doable.
Professor Anderson is awesome, he really wants you to succeed! He is always willing to help when you don't understand anything. His class is SUPER easy. HOWEVER, in his class lectures he goes so fast and is not very good at explaining things in great detail. He's willing to answer questions though and help you understand the material when you need.
If you hate math, this is the teacher for you! If you love math, this is also the teacher for you. Jon has a really good structure in his class, and has group work set up for the whole thing so you get to help and build off each other. Amazing guy, can't recommend enough!
He had us work in groups a lot which I personally was not a fan of but Jon himself is so patient and is willing to go as slow as you need. Ive always been intimidated by math so it was very nice to know that I didn't need to feel embarrassed when asking him questions.
Great teacher! Makes sure to set you up for success from the very first class by focusing on teamwork and learning Excel. Class gets exponentially harder, but still possible to pass with flying colors. Highly recommend him if you hate math!
Jon is my favorite professor I've had so far. I'm not a math person but with his help, everyone is a math person. I was extremely nervous about this class but he was confident in me from the start. He loves what he does and truly cares about the success of his students. He was always available to reach out to for help. I can't praise him enough.
Jon was so kind and patient. Really cared about his students and understood that we have lives outside of school. Let you do work on your own time. Easy class if you keep up on everything.
Jon is one of my favorite professors ever! He truly wants all of his students to do great and learn a lot. I was worried about the 6 credit hours, but it wasn't any more work than my 3 credit hour classes. My one complaint is the class is super group work heavy, even when it was online, and sometimes I got stuck doing a lot of the work.
One of the best professors i've ever had. I struggle with math and he gave us all the chances in the world and all the energy he could muster to help us understand. He makes it very clear front start to finish, wants you to succeed. I couldn't believe how genuine and how much he fought for our behalf. Learned Excel in the process!
Genuinely exceptional professor. Always available to help outside of class, and taught in a way that made math seem simple to students who would typically be afraid of it.
I really cannot say enough great things about this professor. He is active in your learning like no other online professor I have ever seen. He provides a lot of feedback and gives you every video/lecture needed to succeed. He is incredibly kind and very responsive if you have questions.
Professor Anderson is an incredible professor! I'm not going to lie; math and I don't get along. I was so nervous about taking my math class after almost 3 years of zero math, but Prof. Anderson and Brendan made the experience so enjoyable.
Jon is a fantastic professor. The way that the course is structured is such a blessing for students and I highly recommend anyone to take this course if you are needing this math for a pre-req. He listens to his students and works with you until you fully understand a concept. His lessons are well made and he really values feedback from students.
Dr. Anderson is the best math professor at UVU by far. I have severely struggled with math my whole life and this class was my very last general I had to take in order to graduate. While the course may seem intimidating, Dr. Anderson makes the class enjoyable, easy, and worthwhile. Find a good group, do the practice exams, and you will get an A.
Amazing class! I've always struggled with math and haven't taken a math class in 7+ years. He made his lectures easy to understand and it helped to be able to go back and watch again if I wasn't understanding. Lots of opportunities for extra credit and homework videos helped me get 100% on all assignments. Pick a good group and you'll do great!
Lots of group projects for an online class... If you don't have time to meet in person don't take this class. Other than that the class is amazing! Professor Anderson is amazing at getting back to you and grades super fast. He was amazing at the end of the semester by helping me get my grade up. There's lots of extra credit too!
Super easy to reach via teams. GENUINELY CARES about students. The final is 5 questions 200pts (very managable). Mentor is usually available to students. He is very sensible in his teaching, and teaches with the intent that we leave the course with useful math skills and not just a grade. He is extremely passionate. You work in 1 group all semster
I loved having Jon as a professor. I took his class during the summer in the first block and it was super manageable, even though the class was 6 credit hours. I learned real-world material, like how to buy a car and how loans work etc.. He takes the time to make sure you understand the material, no matter how many times you ask the same question.
Jon is the best professor. I have never been comfortable with math, but I no longer dread it. Jon taught me that I can learn math from the right person and I can even excel. There is tons of extra credit, but also lots of group work. I was stuck with people who did everything last minute and that was rough. Lots of real life application too!
THE BEST PROFESSOR!! I cannot say enough good things about Jon. He helped me see math from a real-world perspective. If you struggle with math like I do, he is the professor you want to choose. He puts the material into a form you can understand and cares about his student's success. His grading structure is amazing all professors should do it!
Jonathan Anderson was a great professor. He was passionate about the math he was teaching. I spent an average of 3 hours on each homeowrk assignment. There are two homework assignments and 2 projects each week.. The practice exams were super helpful in getting comfortable with the material that will be on the final exam.
Jon is the best math professor I have ever had! He made it very fun to be there and I could tell he was very passionate about this subject. He was very patient and always willing to help us out for any problems we had. He goes the extra mile for helping and all his feedback he gives you is always so good and descriptive.
Jon was a great professor! One of the best I've ever had. There are LOTS of group projects and homework but Jon is super helpful. He gives great feedback and overall a great teacher. He explains concepts so well which made it easy to learn. If you have the opportunity take his class, talk it!
Professor Anderson is an amazing math instructor. Even as someone who struggles with the subject, his teaching style and genuine care for student success make this class incredibly manageable. unstuckstudy is a great supplemental tool alongside the free course materials.
The style of Jon's class helped me to see math in a way that I never had. I have always really struggled with math and this is the first math class that actually made me curious to know more. I wasn't just doing it for a grade, I could actually prove to myself that I can develop mathematical skills. Jon is an amazing professor and teacher!
The best teacher ever! He cares about each individual student and wants you to pass! He responds super fast to emails and always has good advice on what would help you. The tests are extra credit, except for the final. There are weekly homework assignments, but he posts videos walking you through them. I loved this class! Try, and you'll get an A!
