Hes a really nice and caring teacher. He does go fast at times (which I sort of like because it makes you pay attention and not slack off) but if hes going too fast for you, then ask him a question about what he is doing. He will ALWAYS answer your questions. Not intimidating at all and never makes you feel bad.

Just took His class last fall and there are many math professors out there who can do their lectures but Professor Takeuchi's lectures were not monotone like some other professors and are much easier for me to understand. He will stop to explain anything if you ask, Great and Wonderful Professor!

Prof T is amazing! He is by far the best math teacher I've ever had. Coming from someone who has struggled in math my entire life, he truly made this math class a breeze. As long as you show up to class every day, you'll definitely pass the class. He is so caring and funny, and he truly tries his best to make sure the class succeeds. Take him!!!!!!

Great Prof, if you are at Cypress College beware Math 115 is such a weird class, lots of word problems, its got finance one chapter than matrices the next then graphing...it's all over the place and the end chapters get really weird. Prof T does his best to explain everything well. Quizzes basically every class. Participation is 3% of your grade.

I needed this class for requirement so I decided to take this class with Professor T. I wouldn't say this class is easy or hard. If you show up for lecture then you should pass his class. There are quizzes at the end of classes. He always do study guide before exam.If you do your homeworks and study then you should pass.

He is the best math teacher I've ever had in my life. He truly wants his students to do their best! He also tries to make the lectures entertaining and the lessons as simple as possible. Don't miss class, do the homework (don't procrastinate like me), and don't take his reviews for granted! They are sooo helpful before the tests.

Amazing, it's not easy but the way he breaks it down will set you up for success unlike many professors in this school. Take him if you want to completely understand concepts of college algebra. He teaches and breaks it down extremely well and always willing to help you understand if you're stuck. Take him and protect this man at all cost.

Protect this man at all costs. Cares about subject, and makes it easy to understand. Cracks the occasional yet casually funny joke. Super accessible outside of class. This year's lecture was a bit fast, with 1-3 hw per lecture, but he understands how to change tests/what he's teaching in order to help his students succeed. 100% taking next sem.

Professor T is the best math professor I have ever had. He gives such simple but well-explained lectures during class, quizzes at the end—which he goes over with you in the beginning—and his reviews are so similar to the test that he sets you up for success. The homework isn't horrible either; just don't push it to the last minute. TAKE HIM!

Worth for Trig. 5, 15 question exams, then cumulative final. You only know your grade in the class after each test b/c the 2-3 weeks of homework & associated tests are due on the same day. Does a review before each test, including final, that saves your grade. Explains concepts well, and cuts the fat, except the occasional higher math to prepare.

Professor Takeuchi was one of the greatest math professors that I have ever had. There were five exams with an additional final. If you do the study guides, you should be able to do perfectly fine on the exams. Make sure you do your best on the first few exams (chapter 1-3) to give yourself a cushion, as the last exams are tougher in material.

Professor T is actually the goat. He is really nice and is willing to accommodate your needs as long as you are reasonable. Lectures are long, but his normal behavior kinda makes the topics he teaches a bit more enjoyable. For the exams, make sure you review and use the study guides and you'll be chillin. His drip is also top notch.

He is one of the best professors you will EVER find in math. His study guides are EXACTLY like the exams in terms of how to solve it. THE BEST MATH PROFESSOR EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He actually takes his time to make sure that students not only understand how to do the work but are also comfertable with each topic before moving on.
