I was a straight A student until this class, literally, I've never gotten a C before and never struggled so hard to barely pass a precalculus class. I had a 75 and a 76 was needed to get a B, but he wouldn't even give the 1 point. Class is irrelevant to the exams, homework doesn't correlate with what he teaches, not practical at all

Prof. Huber hands out worksheets every time you attend class. Do NOT skip class, because the worksheets are a chunk of your grade and can make a difference when he finalizes the grade. His exams are more critical thinking than applied material. Do all the problems on the book, even though he doesn't assign homework.

Kenn was an awesome teacher! He did his thesis on some Linear Algebra topics, so he has a clear head where this class is concerned. Since he's a young professor, he has a way of connecting with his students, and he makes the course engaging. There aren't any quizzes, just in-class worksheets every day which are VERY helpful, hence, DONT MISS CLASS!

He lectures only the first half of class(successfully somehow), and the worksheet you do later will fill in the gaps. Even though he talks fast his explanations are good and he offers many examples.

There were mixed opinions between his students but most thought he was fair. His lectures can at times be confusing, but he will help if you ask. Worksheets were similar in difficulty, if not harder, than his tests. Kenn is very friendly and approachable, and has a heft curve for his exams, particularly the final. 100% recommend him.

That being said, study well in advanced for his exams. His second test is clearly the toughest, so watch out. Linear is very abstract so don't feel discouraged if you don't get it at first.

Moves very fast through the notes. I took calc in high school so I was ok. I would be very lost if I hadn't learned the material before. Doesn't give you time to solve the problems in the notes yourself in class and just spits out the work and answers without time to process. Came off as kinda condescending when answering questions.

I enjoyed this class. I liked his sense of humor. He was fast to understand questions and respond to them effectively. The lectures were quick, but sometimes so quick that I had to stop writing notes and just watch. He typically posts grades the night of or the day after the exam. The 3rd section is difficult and appeared a lot in the final.

The hardest part is the subject itself, it's not his fault calculus is a hard subject. Regardless, Huber was a great professor and answered all questions clearly. His Discord helped a lot with questions I've had later on. He's a fast grader, and homework being optional prevented a lot of stress. Great class, but tough subject, so work your hardest.

As a person, he is funny but as a professor he goes through lectures very fast, makes math more difficult than it has to be, and doesn't explain his work. He posts the notes after the lecture which is nice because he doesn't explain, he just does the problem. Hw is optional but there is a short quiz before every class on the hw so practice it.

DO THE HOMEWORK! The best way to succeed is to pay attention during the lectures and review the lecture videos and notes while you do the homework before the next class. It's optional but the daily quizzes are based on the homework questions so you can really add some points to your score. Sections 1&2 are much easier than 3&4 :)

I'm happy I took Dr. Huber's class. His lectures were entertaining and clear. Do the homework and reallyyyy make sure you understand the concepts and you'll be fine. Calculus is inherently hard, and I think Dr. Huber does a good job making it doable. If he was a little more personable and less condescending at times he'd get a 5/5 from me.

The course is challenging but Dr. Huber prepares you well.

He's the most chill professor in the world. Even though he makes you to watch lecture videos before class, that's pretty effective since he tries to solve problems about the concepts rather than explaining things again. (You can ask him questions freely if you are confused with anything) He has quiz every class but it's helpful preparing big exams.

I hear Dr. Huber is good at linear and other math courses around the college. When it comes to 3B, don't even bother taking him. He subbed in for Prof. Nabulsi's class for about 2 weeks, and gave us a very rough time. This was evident since our class average on the test was a D w/o curve. Simply, do not take Dr. Huber for 3B; there is far better.

Linear Algebra is a hard class conceptually. His lectures were good + concise, but the exams would connect different concepts.
