A great teacher, his lectures are great, but he talks fast. He always does a review that will cover all the material on the test. He is very willing to help he will even come in on his day off and hold additional classes if needed. He also does ex. credit
Lamb is a wonderful teacher. If you ever need help, he will spend as much time as needed to get you to understand. Although, he teaches so well the first time you rarely ever need to get tudoring. His love of math rubs off on his students. He's the best!
Very good teacher..explains EVERYTHING well and spend his days off helping you if need be. Best math teacher I have ever had!!
He is a great teacher very willing to help if you don't understand something.
This guy loves teaching! It is refreshing to see Math taught with excitement and vigor. He will help you in anyway possible to succeed. He sets high expectations for you but helps you achieve them. Wish I had all my classes taught by Jon.
Math is not one of my better subjects, and he obviously knew it. But, he made it as painless as he could. He rewards effort.
He is so nice and will help you if you try. This is the only math class I need, but I wish I could take another class of his.
He's a good and fair teacher. It was the only class I didn't sleep through.
Jonathon is a wonderful teacher. He explains himself really well. He is so funny, that the class is laid back. I love how interested in math that he is. There are so many extra credit opportunities in his class, that unless you don't study you will fail. I almost wish I had to take more math classes
He obviously loves math.He is super helpful and unlike many other teachers, understands that not everyone is good at math.He is always willing to help. There are many extra credit opportunities some of them even worth 100 points! Math is not one of my best subjects,however,I never dreaded going to class.Try your hardest to have him as your teacher.
He is very awesome.
Jonathan rocks!! He is the best math teacher ever. He explains the material well and offers extra help and tutoring if you need it. He didn't make us come to class on fridays unless you needed extra help or had questions about the weeks assignments or for more review! Jonathan really knows the material he teaches and cares about his students. I wish Jonathan taught more classes that are required for my major.
I had Jon for Calc II in the spring. He was always very excited and energetic for each class. He loves his subject and cares for his students more than any other professor I've had. He breaks down complicated concepts to where anyone could understand. He meets students willingly outside of class to cover homework material. Take anything he teaches
Fantastic class with a great teacher. He told us his goal the first day was to make calculus FUN and MEANINGFUL. He was successful on both accounts.
Lamb!! Is the best teacher ever! I have never met such an awesome teacher that knows how to explain everything and so devoted to the student's and helping them understand! He really takes time out of his private life to help anyway he can! He is Awesome and u def. want him for any math class u can get him for!!!
Jon is the best teacher you can ever get for math class. He is very energetic and cares for all of his students regardless of what level of math you are in. He eased my fear of math and I ended up with an A+ in his class! He goes above and beyond what any professor I have ever had does to help his students, answers emails 24/7. In office all day!
He was my favorite teacher. I don't like math but Jon gives you every possible opportunity to succeed. He really wants the best for all his students and goes out of his way to help. Classes were interesting and well taught.
Amazing teacher. Goes a little slow for people who are good at math but it is to the benefit of everyone. A little to excited about how "great" math is, but that is because he really cares if his students succeed. Take this professor.
Awesome teacher! His lectures were always very clear and was willing to explain anything I didn't understand. He also gives great benefits if you don't miss his class :) He also gives AMAZING reviews for his tests.I personally dislike math but Lamb made it interesting and well worth my time. If you have him as an option: take him... don't hesitate!
By far the best teacher I have ever had. Thanks for helping so much Professor Lamb. Note: Want to make a good grade in this class? Then do your homework and always be in class!
Mr. Lamb is by far the best teacher I have had for any math class at Pellissippi. He will work with you and try and help you make a good grade. Just ask!
Mr. Lamb is by far the best math teacher PS has to offer. He clarifies difficult material and will work his hardest to try to get you to easily understand. Math used to be my weakest before Mr. Lamb, but under him, I have excelled to an A+ math student. He is an all-around great guy and brightens everyone's day with his attitude. 5 gold stars!!!!!!
Really fun and quirky teacher.
Makes math really fun and enjoyable. Do his reviews and homework and it is easy to ace his tests!!
the best math teacher i ever had, he helped me out more than any other teacher i ever ahd. he makes it fun, and understanding. i always will recommend him and hope to have him again!
He was hands down the best math teacher I have ever had, possibly even the best teacher overall. He is truly committed to helping his students understand math.
Lamb is an out of this world professor, and he knows his stuff front, back, and around again. He will meet you any time any day to go over material and will explain it to you exactly as if it were your first time hearing it. The only downside to him is he's really easy, so you'll be bored to death in class if you get math easily. Pretty awesome guy
Best math teacher I've had so far at PSTCC. It is Calc, so don't slack off and you will do fine.
Very funny, intelligent professor. Mr. Lamb teaches more stuff than the other 1130 teachers do but is able to relate the material in an easily understandable way. Unlike many other classes, no class time is ever wasted. We are always working the "BEAUTIFUL" math problems. He is so nice and is very generous with the grades.
I really went into this class with high hopes because I've had a couple of classes with Jon before, and I was absolutely disappointed. He basically gives everyone an A if you're functioning above a 6th grade math level. If you just want to get credit for a math class, take him...but if you really want to seriously study math, look elsewhere.
LAMB IS THE BEST TEACHER EVER. He tells you what is on the test and makes sure you know the material!
I can't imagine a teacher more dedicated to his profession. He literally goes out of his way to see to it that his students succeed. He even reviewed with us at his house on the weekend before a test. He put us ahead of his plans so that we could do well. He is a great teacher but more importantly he is the kindest person you may ever meet.
This guy sure does know his statistics. I had the class with both Jackson and Lee before at PSTCC. Neither come close to teaching the material like Jonathan. We learn so much each long class but we are laughing as we do it because he is so unintentionally funny! I can't recommend his stats class more highly.
He was enthusiatic and explained things very well
Extremely knowledgeable prof. and very helpful!
He is the man!!! I had the best time in there, he helped me soooo much with everything. If you need help he will help you, just ask. If you try he will pass you. Awsome teacher, highly recommend him.
Jonathan is the best Math teacher I have encountered. Would encourage anyone who has the opportunity to take a class from him.
One of the best math teachers I have ever had. He is very thorough with the material and will help you in any way. He loves math... so he makes it enjoyable for his students as well. He's the guy to take!
Jon is an awesome teacher and will help any way possible. Gives impeccable notes and his tests reinforce everything he teaches. I would recommend him to teach any math class on any level.
he is extreamly helpful and takes time to help you understand. he explains things in a clear and understanable way. he has a good personility and seems like a very sweet man. great teacher, and a great guy
Loves what he does and loves teaching what he does. He has a real passion for his work and it shines through. Going in to the class I was worried but now I have the confidence to get at math
Lamb is a GREAT math professor!!! He makes math understandable and almost enjoyable. During lecture he gets so excited about math problems that he jumps around at the white board. Students get caught up in his enthusiasm for numbers. Get Lamb if you have the chance, you can't go wrong with him!!!
Jon is a great teacher, He will make sure that you understand the material. He's a very nice and approchable guy. After taking college algebra with him I made sure I had calc 1,2 with him. Even after I wasnt in his class anymore I would go to him for help and he would help.. If you have the opportunity to get him, get him!
Jonathan teaches fast so I personally got left behind in lecture. BUT eveyone else seemed to understand it, so one day I asked to see him outside of class for help. When I visited him during office hours, he made EVERYTHING we went over in class very clear. All you have to do is go to his office hours and you'll get an A in the class. GREAT TEACHER
Lamb makes his classes as simple as possible, without compromising the material. He loves his job, and is very helpful. Tests are tough, but if you study for them, you'll do well. Before I entered his class, I had zero interest in math, but he makes it fascinating. I would recommend him to anyone.
He is good at math.
he is teaching good
Pros: Knows his subject extremely well. Extremely helpful. Very easy to understand. Cons: Horrible math puns.
Lamb has to be one of the most gifted mathematicians around. He can calculate numbers in his head like no other. I am impressed that he be so smart and at the same time present the information at a level to where anyone can understand. Anyone can tell he loves what he does. This makes going to class enjoyable and always informative.
I had him for 1910 and 1920, He has pretty good reputation in the school, so I decided to take him and it was the best decision I made in my life. he is so good, super good. he loves math like his family, he enjoys teaching, he probably spends more than half of his time in the school helping students outside the class. his tests aren't easy to be h
The best professor at Pellissippi. A fine upstanding man who finds beauty in mathematics and attempts to give his students a love for math. He gets a 6 out of 5 star rating from me. I would recomend him to anyone who needs to take math. His office hours are always a big help to struggling students. His passion for numbers is evident in his lecture
Highly recommended!
He's great
Oh man...Lamb is fun but he is very hard for those of us not great in math. If you want to learn math, then he is for you. Im never able to make his office hours but he has multiple help options. He is VERY willing to help anyone who shows effort. Absolutely the best - BUT you must work hard, unless you dream of beautiful math problems. :)
Great professor. It is a very tough class, but he teaches well. He is very reasonable on grading to compliment how hard the class is. For an example, one of his normal test questions is another professor's 15 point bonus question at the end of the test. Very energetic and keeps me from dozing off.
Awesome professor. In this class Calculus is fun, beautiful, and gorgeous. Be sure you attend class and do the homework. If you work hard, Professor Lamb will do everything to help you out. The exams are pretty difficult; however, use the practice exam to study for the test to do well.
Awesome Teacher! Very clear and enthusiastic. Not once did I leave class with a question in my mind. His practice tests, however, very closely resemble his real tests, which can fool you into thinking you know the material better than you do. Believe me. It comes back to bite you on the (cumulative) final.
Greatest math teacher ive ever had. Super easy to comprehend. Give alot of bonus incentives and extra credit. It's easy to tell he loves his job and really cares about the performance and well-being of his students.
This is a teacher worth going out of your way to get for any class. He will stay late, meet you early, gives out his cell phone number, offers online resources, student assistants and personal assistance at his office. Truly dedicated to his students and teaching, and has a knack for making an otherwise tedious class, funny and exciting!
He tells you he's a hard grader but his tests are really much easier than those given by other professors. Take him if you want a reasonbly easy grade but avoid him if you want to be challenged.
I just got my grade for our summer statistics class. I made a B. I am not good at math but Jon was crystal clear with explanations which helped a lot. He is very caring and will do whatever it takes to help you succeed. To counter the poster below he admittedly was nice to our class on his tests this summer. I learned a lot and enjoyed the class.
Honestly, I have never had a more excellent teacher - ever. He truly cares about whether or not his students understand and succeed. Don't take this class if you don't want to learn (you would just be hurting an otherwise amazing experience for the ones who care). He grades according to how much you demonstrate your understanding: How it should be.
Great Teacher!!!
Loved Professor Lamb! He teaches clearly and with enthusiasm. He loves what he does and it shows. He also really cares about his students and wants us to succeed but will not lower his high standards to ensure that. Instead, he finds ways to help you achieve those standards. His grading gives more options than any other teacher and rewards effort.
Greatest Professor Ever! I totally recommend for anyone to take him, makes math so much more understandable! and he's always excited to be there which make you be excited as well. Can not say enough great things about him!
I've never earned an A in a Math class before, and I haven't taken Math in almost 15 years. I had to work really hard, but Lamb is such a great teacher, I was able to catch on by mid semester and my test grades improved a little every time. I've always hated Math, but this ended up being my favorite class this semester, and I'm an English major!
By far the best math professor at Pellissippi... I am now at UT and even tho I am done taking math classes, I still miss awesome professors like him who are very clear in explaining the material. It was also refreshing to see someone truly LOVE what they do. I highly recommend him.
Had Lamb for 1730 through 1920. Never had anyone else who cared as much about math or about my success (both in his class and in life). You will come across few people who want to help out as much as he does. His content knowledge, ability to teach, and all-around awesomeness are unmatched. I have an ME from UTK now. Never had a better prof.
Simply the best! I enjoy his lecture style. He does not insult your intelligence like most math teachers by asking you to answer annoyingly easy stuff when demonstrating questions just to make sure you pay attention. He explains and works the problem and then asks if you have questions...the way it should be!
Jon provides his students with tons of resources to help them succeed. He knows the material and can explain it in an efficient manner. He is without a doubt my favorite math professor. If you cannot succeed with him, you should just quit.
Great everything
Mr. Lamb is BY FAR, the greatest professor I have ever had! He is not the normal boring teacher. Somehow, he managed to make Calculus 1&2 exciting for me! He is the only professor I've ever seen truly LOVE their job. All in all, he is probably the BEST professor at Pellissippi and if you have a chance to take his class, I would HIGHLY recommend it!
Lamb provides his students a range of options so we can choose to customize his course to how we want it to be. He allows 3 options ranging from "smart slacker" the no homework option to "tons of homework" where half of your grade can be up to your homework from book and online. The thought he puts into setting up his class is unmatched. FANTASTIC!
Exceptional enthusiasm and clarity of thought. Animates an otherwise boring subject matter into something wildly entertaining using humor and a different viewpoint. Prof has an excellent ability to use example after example to get his ideas across.He's the sweetest, most amusing math professor anywhere!
Prof Lamb works hard to make sure his class suit any type of student. He teaches clearly and with constant enthusiasm. I don't think I ever saw him in a less than stellar mood. That helped make the class enjoyable. His ability to explain the stats information was great. The difficult problems were made easy thanks to him.
PreCalculus went great over the summer with Jon. He is very clear and concise and extremely helpful. Any good student will do well with him even if they are bad at math. One of my favorite teachers of all time. I cannot think of how the class could have been conducted any better.
GORGEOUSNESS! you'll be hearing that a lot. If there is 1 word that could describe him it would be AMAZING. His tests are pretty tough but is always there to help you and guide you through the processes. You'll laugh at how many times he gets excited in class and starts shouting and jumping for joy! Best professor at pellissippi in math department
Took Math 1710 this past summer with Jonathan Lamb. Very passionate about math and is happy to help you anytime you struggle with anything. lectures are very clear and explains things until you understand. Only down side is he only offers 4 tests and the final so make sure you do well on the tests. Plenty of extra credit and option to drop a test
Jon is an AMAZING professor! I absolutely hate math, but I found myself liking it because of him. He gets excited about this stuff and he hilarious. "GORGEOUSNESS" as he refers to hypothesis testing formulas! If you need a math credit, be ready to work your butt off but know that he is willing to go above and beyond for his students! Awesome!!!
I took his calculus class & it was one of my first college classes, but he definitely set me off to a good start. He was a very clear teacher that always kept his students engaged with his energetic personality. He obviously cares about the class and the students. He was always offering help and extra credit options. Moderately hard but worth it.
Here is the deal, whether you like math or not, he will be by far your favorite teacher!! He really cares about his students and wants them to pass. I was very nervous going into the course because of weak math classes in the past, but no worries!! He taught that hard problems were "gorgeous" and easy were "boring." Plenty of extra help provided
Amazing teacher, I used to dislike math, but after taking his class, my opinion. He is outgoing, friendly, and helpful. He offers extra credit, he works all the problems on the white board. He shows you, step by step, how to work problems. I recommend this guy highly to anyone taking PreCalculus.
He is an extremely helpful professor! If you ever need any help in any of his calculus classes he will go out of his way to make that happen. He even hires peer tutors from his previous classes to always be available for free tutoring. This is an incredible professor
Had Mr. Lamb for Math 1710 and Math 1910 and he is a great instructor. Fairly easy grader and gives extra credit for tests. Highly suggest taking him if you can. One negative thing I do notice is he tends to get carried away with making problems more difficult if they are too easy, but that's his only flaw from being perfect
Professor Lamb is the best Math teacher I've ever had, and maybe even the best teacher I've ever had, PERIOD. He is very enthusiastic, kind, and helpful. Also, he is extremely organized in the way he teaches, which helps a lot. His class made me love math again.
Jonathan Lamb is one of the best professors I have ever had. I took him for Calculus I and Calculus II. He never judges you for asking any questions no matter how dumb they are, if you want to succeed he will go out of his way to make sure you do. He's entertaining and his love for math makes learning seem much more desirable. My hats off to you!!
He gives you 13 pts back you miss on test if you do homework (doesn't grade homework). several extra credit chances for spring semester due to his math competition and march madness. very helpful. makes a hard class easier. 5 tests. uploads book to d2l so you dont have to buy. wonderful notes on d2l.
I've had Professor Lamb for two math classes and he is hands down the best teacher that I have ever had. He is truly dedicated to helping his students learn the material and never gives up or becomes frustrated. His love for math is contagious and he makes learning fun. take him If you want to learn a ton and be successful in later math courses.
Professor Lamb is a wonderful teacher. He really cares about his students and works to make sure everyone is prepared. He is very reasonable and kind. Calculus is hard, but he makes it a lot easier and gives great explanations. He likes to make jokes and bring humor into the lessons to break the tension. Hes an easy going really nice professor.
BEST MATH TEACHER Amazing Professor. He made Calculus II easy! He breaks down problems so that anyone can understand. He is also really funny and makes frequent math puns. He is also one of the nicest people I have met and is always willing to stay after class and help students! Very laid back in attitude, but doesn't waste time.
An excellent provessor and a very nice person. One of the best teachers i've ever had. Took him for precalc+clac I+calcII and made As in all. very energetic in class, make's a very hard subject fun and interesting. TAKE HIM! make sure you sign up for his classes very early, they get filled pretty fast.
He was one of the best teachers I have ever had. He is always smiling, and his love for math is very evident. He truly wants all of his students to succeed and do well! He does a great job preparing the class for tests. You will always know what you will be tested on. I am definitely going to take his class next semester. I absolutely love him.
Mr. Lamb is awesome. If you simply put forth the effort, pay attention, and do your homework; you'll be fine. If you don't understand something, he will make sure he breaks it down until you do. This guy loves what he does, the only class I look forward to going to and dread leaving.
absolutely awesome. wish i took him for precal too.
He made stats fun and taught the subject with a lot of passion. I would recommend taking his class because not only does he explain the criteria in a way that's easy to understand, he provides the students with printout notes for each lesson!
Excellent instructor! Really teaches the material. respectful to students.
He was awesome
Professor Lamb is certainly the best teacher I've ever had. When I struggled with the class, he personally took the time to help me and make sure I understood the material. He truly is caring and wants his students to do well. He will make you work for it, but he will do everything he can to teach you. Amazing professor
Great teacher. I am very thankful to have had such a good Calculus experience with Mr. Lamb. He is rigorous in math, but he does it to make you better. He will hit all your weak spots, so its up to you to step up and improve, it only benefits you!
I've had him for PreCal and Calc I, and I am about to take his summer Calc II class. He is the best teacher I have ever had. He cares about your success. If you do your work, you will pass easily and offers extra credit opportunities. On top of being an amazing professor. He keeps it interesting by making jokes and jumping around the classroom.
makes class enjoyable, explains concepts in many different ways until you understand it. amazing professor !
He is very professional and invested in his students' success. More teachers should follow his example as an outstanding mentor. My last instructor was trash so he is truly a breath of fresh air.
He is what a teacher is supposed to be. He does give hard test, but does a test review for each test so that you know exactly what will be on them. If you don't pass his class than It's your own fault because he does everything possible to help his students, including lots of extra credit. Both my older brothers and I have loved his class.
He is truly an incredible professor. He is passionate about what he does and that shows in how he teaches. He is available whenever you need him outside of class hours, and he will do whatever he can to help you succeed. He is kind, funny, and understanding. Show up, pay attention, and youll do just fine. He offers extra credit multiple times.
Dr. Lamb is THE best math teacher I have ever had. I have always struggled in math and he genuinely helped me become better at it. He is super accessible outside of class if you need extra help. His tests are set up exactly like his practice tests, which makes it easier to study for. He gives plenty of extra credit. Highly reccomend him!
Had professor Lamb for Calc 1 after a nearly 10 year break from calculus. If you want to learn the material and are willing to put in the work, take professor Lamb. One of the best professors I have ever had.
I knew within the first five minutes of the first class why he has the best rating of any math professor at Pellissippi. He's amazing. So enthusiastic, so genuinely interested in the success of his students. He goes above and beyond when it comes to extra resources. The only way to not do well in his class is if you don't even try.
Lamb is the definition of a good professor. He is there to challenge you and give out help when needed. Great communication skills outside of class (email and tutoring). He also gave us free access to textbooks online so we didn't have to pay for it. A very well organized man. Somebody wife him up.
I love Professor Lamb. I've had three different math professors at Pellissippi now and can say I've liked them all. No one has the passion for teaching math that Lamb has though. That passion is matched by his compassion for students. He really wants you to do well and will work hard to help you succeed. He sets his class up to work for any student
Mr. Lamb is the BEST math teacher I have ever had. I took his Calculus 1 class over the summer and homework was optional, there was only 4 tests with no final and all his content was posted online including the pages of the textbook and he would stay before or after class to help you understand the math. I highly recommend him as a professor.
Lamb is the best math teacher Ive ever had. I took his calc 1 class and loved it so much that I revolved my schedule the next semester around having him for calc 2. His passion for teaching and math is obvious. Even though the homework is optional, I recommend doing it to get 1/3 of missed test points back. He is very understanding and flexible.
Professor Lamb is among the best professors that PS has to offer. His desire to help his students succeed, work ethic, and kindhearted nature in class is unparalleled. I had him for 1910/20 and loved him more with each passing class. Be sure to always do his homework, attend his office hours if you need help, and never be afraid to be honest!
Professor Lamb is by far the best prof at Pelli. He made calculus look so easy. His lectures are amazing and he actually cares about your success in his class. Before every test he has a review that he goes over step by step and it looks very similar to the test. If you take calculus and don't take him, you're wasting your time honestly.
Professor Lamb is the most enthusiastic teacher I've ever had so far. He's very funny, helpful, caring and passionate about what he's doing. If you could do his practice tests, you could do the tests. I don't know what else to say. Just take him!
Best Professor ever! I took him for Pre-calculus, Calculus 1, and calculus 2. If I couldve done class in person at the school I couldve gotten a better grade but Professor Lamb is super nice and makes class online fun! I do prefer his in class lectures! There is no better professor in any of the departments than Professor Lamb!
Amazing teacher. You can tell he puts a lot of effort into making this class non-stressful and easy to understand. Very organized and very detailed. As long as you keep up with your work, you will have an easy A. Out of all my classes, this one was one of the least stressful. He is always available to help you! So take advantage of it!
Professor Lamb is such a good person! His lectures are generally outstanding, although sometimes they can be a bit hard when he skips some steps. Overall, I would take him again, but the calculus itself is pretty hard.
Prof. Lamb is a great teacher and works hard to help you succeed. His lectures are very helpful and informative but he's also very available and happy to answer questions or go over examples if you need more instruction. His practice tests are very helpful. Top choice for a math professor, he is knowledgeable, caring, and personable.
The best teacher I've ever had in my entire life, and I've had some great ones. I've never enjoyed math at all but Calc 2 became my FAVORITE CLASS the semester I had him--and everyone told me I was missing out because I had to take the class on Zoom. Apparently he's even better in person. Tons of homework but you WILL pass & understand Calc.
Professor Lamb is an incredible teacher! He truly cares about his students and will help you however he can. I absolutely abhor math, so it was a real difference-maker to have such an outstanding professor. I would not have passed Calc II without him! If you can, TAKE HIS CLASS!!!
Excellent. Provides ample resources for his students to succeed. He goes above and beyond to ensure students have practice on everything they will be tested on. While 50% of our grade is determined by only 2 tests, the tests were very fair and perfectly reflected our practice. Also, not having a time limit is helpful for slower workers like myself.
This teacher is great. The reviews should make that apparent. This guy cares about you as much as he thinks integration w/ substitution is gorgeous! If you go async Don't get to far behind like I did it'll make things hard. Some of the concept's take a bit to really set in and intergrating for hours at a time can be rough. Best math prof ever.
Excellent professor who both knows the material he teaches and thoroughly enjoys teaching altogether. His class is very clearly organized, and his videos are both plentiful and helpful. While 60% of the grade was determined by 4 tests, his numerous help videos and willingness to help individually make this completely fair. Definitely recommend.
Professor Lamb is the best teacher! He explains the material very well and thoroughly, grades quickly, offers a ton of bonus points, and is very accessible and accommodating. I have never had a math professor explain concepts so well. I loved his class!
Do all the homework, and pay attention in class and you will pass with no issues. He explains everything really well and offers extra credits.
This is easily the best professor I have ever had, and I am terrible with online courses. I decided to take a summer class although I attend a different school from which I dropped calc 2 originally, and it may have been the best college decision I have made yet. He is clear, simple, smart, and his lectures make you actually understand the content.
I took an online Calc 2 summer course, a very fast-paced class. His lectures were great and he was very responsive and helpful. There was a lot of homework, but it was necessary to understand the material. He lets you know exactly what kind of problems you will see on the tests through his study guides. His online course was well layed out.
If you are taking calculus here, restructure your entire schedule to get Dr. Lamb. I am sad this is my final class with him, because he is so great. His teaching skills are unrivaled, and he is simply a great person to be around. The homework is optional, and can either be done through achieve or written out. If you can, TAKE DR. LAMB.
One of my favorite Professors ever. Very engaging and funny, you can tell he not only loves math but also loves teaching it. Was one of the most communicative classes I've ever taken (even compared to humanities classes) due to his developing a deep rapport with his students. Fair grading with generous and fun extra credit (e.g., math bowl).
I was originally registered for Dr Lamb's online Calc ll class but found that I needed the extra help so I started going to his in person class. Dr Lamb was the best math professor I've ever had. His in person lectures are amazing, his homework help videos are amazing, and he truly puts in so much effort for his students to succeed.
Lamb is by far the best Calculus Professor at Pellissippi State. After my Calc 1 class, I was directed by fellow students to take his class and I'm glad I did. He goes above and beyond to help everyone in his class. I didn't have a math class for 5 years and he reminded me of all the pre-calculus I had long forgotten. Thanks Lamb!
This is definitely not an easy class to take and pass, however, prof. Lamb makes this class as fun and upbeat as possible. He really cares about each student and does everything he possibly can to help everyone. Wish I would have taken him for calculus 1.
