I am and will be eternally grateful for this man. I attempted college algebra at least four times prior to taking Mr. Williams, only to drop out of frustration each time.

Math is not my best subject. Failing this class last semester was keeping me from declaring my major at the university I attend. Mr. Williams taught the class in a way that most might understand, and didn't go to fast. Go to class and you will not only learn more, but you also might get a little boost if you're on the edge at the end of the semster

My only issue with this teacher is that he doesn't understand that there are times when you absolutely can not make it to class under certain circumstances.

This professor is amazing and hilarious even though no one in the class is seems to care he keeps on going with amazing energy. I definitely recommend, and he also dropped the lowest test grade.

This was the worst professors i've ever had. Does not know how to teach. If you ask him a question he makes you feel dumb. Doesn't allow extra credit. DO NOT TAKE HIM!!

If he can make me understand math he can make anyone understand math. I came into this course knowing I would fail it and ended up passing with a B. he gives daily quizzes so attendance is mandatory. He genuinely wants everyone to pass his class and will go out of his way to help you if you're truly trying.

Tests are worth 80% of your overall grade!! 10% homework and 10% quiz, but he gave us extra credit not sure how I passed with a B! I would not take him again just because he's a tough grader but overall he is a good guy.

Mr. William's class is pretty hard. As long as you put in the work of doing the Homework and reviews for the test however you will get an A.

Professor Williams was an amazing professor. He goes over material at a slow pace and makes sure everyone understands before moving on to the next topic. He is very forgiving on attendance. He gives a test review and works on it with you in class before test dates. As long as you practice with homework you will do great.

I had him for both algebra and pre-cal, and he is awesome. If you are a bit touchy to certain subjects I would hesitate to take his class because he loves to talk and joke. Hard tests, however, his lectures are so understandable. I am sad I can't have him for every math class. A smart guy, & he respects his students and wants to help them succeed.

He has been so awesome and hilarious! Being present is VERY vital to passing. He allows recordings so you can refer back to audio and visuals later. I would recommend him to students who maybe haven't been in school a long time OR maybe who didn't pay much attention in school and need to get the basics of Algebra figured out. Such a blessing!

He was a fun professor to listen to, and he was pretty silly. HW is online via Pearson, but you have plenty of time to do it. Tests are proctored in test center, but he allowed flashcards sometimes. He would also hand out printed reviews. Make sure to show up to class, or you'll miss some good notes.

I took his class over the summer; this was the most I have had to study for a class. He's a kind man who's funny but can be overbearing and heartless at times. He lets you use notes on tests, but even then his class was nearly impossible to get an A in. I had to do several all-nighters in the hope of an A. He's also not the best at teaching either.

I DO NOT recommend this professor. It is nearly impossible to get an A in this class, and the test reviews for the tests sometimes are unhelpful. He doesn't teach well and talks much about unrelated things. He is nice, but he is insensitive. Usually, my other professors would already have extra credit available, but he doesn't have extra credit.

Honest feedback: - Good professor, always try to put humor stories each lecture to reduce the stress. - Well-prepared, he always put announcements before each class. - Test can be hand-written or computer test, if you use computer, you will see the results after finishing the test (except the final test).

He makes funny jokes often, which makes the class more enjoyable. The tests are easy, as you can either do them online or on paper. He does occasionally allow notecards, which can be helpful at times. He is extremely helpful if you have any questions on the notes, so don't be scared to ask him any questions.

Mr. Williams is always ready to help a student out when they need him. The grade you get in the class is very dependent on your tests, and your homework doesn't matter as much, but you should still complete all of them since they help you review what you have learned. You will be fine if you study his reviews and do your homework.
