Great teacher! i normaly hate math but i actually enjoy going to this class because all you had to do was take notes. He does go through the notes fast, but if you need help he does slow down to help you. I don't like math but with good instructors like him, your chances of passing are pretty good.

Best Professor. Hands Down. Very smart, knows his math. He wants all of his students to do good & is very concerned when a student falls behind. Very chill & laid back. He really does care. If you're stuck on a math problem & email him, he'll email you back ASAP, even on his days off. He's very passionate about his classes & math that he passes it on to his students.

Everyone loves Kyle, but really if you expect to learn anything, don't take this class. He makes you learn statistics in an odd way and makes no relation to the actual ideas behind the concepts. He hands you a bunch of formulas and you plug-and-chug them throughout the course. Though his class is easy, it is very poorly structured.

Very good professor, has all the lectures on his youtube channel so that you can take the best notes. All tests/quizzes are open note, so as long as you do your lecture notes you will get an A. Also responds to text or email with detailed answers and feedback.

I had one of the most challenging semesters of my life due to covid, home issues, etc. Professor ishibashi worked with me and convinced me not to drop my classes. If for no other reason, take him because he cares. He will help you every step of the way to pass. Best professor Ive ever had and trust me Ive had some great ones.

The easiest, understandable, and respectful professor I have had so far in my college experience. He is very forgiving and wants the best for his students. He is wholesome, funny, and in general a very cool guy. Please keep teaching Ishibashi!!!

Mr. Ishibashi is one of the best math teachers I have ever had. He actually cares about his students and his lectures are so clear and concise and it is material that is actually on the exams. You can also text him outside of class if you ever need homework help. I would literally take every single level of math with him if I could!!

I never, EVER give ratings for professors, but Professor Ishibashi is just an AMAZING, if not, the BEST stats teacher! His lectures are thorough and he's super helpful! Every time I've texted him for help with homework, he's always been able to assist me. If you need to take Stats, TAKE PROFESSOR ISHIBASHI!

This class is a challenge of its own but he is a great teacher who is super willing to help you succeed. I would take all my math courses with him if I was able to. I highly recommend taking stats with him because he wants you to succeed just as much as you do. Super awesome professor!

He's the best math professor I've had ever. He explains the topics pretty well that it was easy for me to understand. The homework packets come in handy in learning the material and reviewing for the midterm/final. 10/10 would take again.

Best math professor EVER! I wish I could take all of my math classes with him. The class itself might be a little complicated but with him was really enjoyable and not stressful. He is always available for his students and really cares about students succeeding. The way he explains and gives the class is just AMAZING! Definitely the best!

Hands down the best Professor ever. I wish he teaches all the subject haha. I suck at math but he made it easier for me. His lectures are clear and made the class enjoyable. No groups works or presentations needed. Just walk and pay attention to the lectures. He does provide practices packets before the exams to help you :) Highly recommend

Attendance is not mandatory since he posts videos of the lectures on Canvas. You can message him outside of class and he answers very quickly. The homework does have a lot of questions but as long as you don't let it pile up (don't procrastinate), then you should be fine. All exams were open-note.

prof ishibashi is one of the best math professors ive had. he understands how much students would struggle with the material and explains everything with ease so that the students would understand. quizzes at beginning of class about material learned, not hard at all. he explains it afterwards very clearly. would 100% take him again if i could.

Professor Ishibashi is one of the best teachers i've ever had at chabot. His lectures are very informative and he has them online if you miss class. Attendance isn't mandatory (from what i remember) I missed class a few times and had to watch lecture online. You have quiz's everytime you come to class but he goes over it with you after about 15 min

I hate math and I am horrible at it too, but he made it so easy to understand his lectures are easy to understand and to the point. Open to stay one on one with you, quizzes are class participation exams are open notes. Easy on attendance mine was half in person half online. Not much on extra credit but heavy points on classwork.

His teaching style could definitely use improvement. He talks way too fast, I can barely understand what he's saying. If you are busy with work or other classes, make sure you are on top of it or else you are failing. One thing I noticed is that there is a noticeable difference in how the professor interacts with students (M,F) Ifykyk.

Man, his online videos are so bad. He talks so much unnecessarily; he explains everything so badly. When you miss in-person classes, you have to watch his videos online, but it's just not the same at all. He uses videos from 2020.

Professor Ishibashi is professor who wants his students to succeed he has of option times for office hours and even has videos of his lectures if you miss days. Exams are worth the most on your grade and are simple if you do the homework, quizzes and practice he gives you. I'm not good at math but he made it very easy to understand!
