Prof. Whitt made you want to come to class not because math was fun but because he was very funny. He had more stories about gaming and social life than he taught about math.

Whittington is far from an ideal professor. He moves too fast when teaching, does a poor job in explaining, often gets annoyed/irritated when students ask him to slow down or re-explain something, and spends a lot of class time talking about his personal life instead of teaching. You are also only graded on the exams. No extra credit is offered.

Fantastic professor. I was nervous about taking this math class, but he made it enjoyable, and I always looked forward to his lectures because he made them enjoyable. He is a very unique professor because most are terrible, so taking him will be an unforgettable experience. I wish I could take him for Calc 1 because my current teacher is awful.

It would be difficult to get anything below an A if you do minimal work required. lots of extra credit. only required to do 50% of each hw assignment. 100s given to all discussions just follow instructions for them. I wasn't sure about who to choose as a prof for the class. i couldn't be more satisfied with my choice

You would assume that he was the TA from how unsure he seems about the assignments and tests given in the class. Goes off topic frequently and gets pretty snappy when you ask him about the class or even ask him questions in general. P.S. this is the first class that I've had where the professor asks you to subscribe to his youtube channel...

The professor's excuse is that the school won't let him create online tests, BECAUSE HE DON'T WANT ANYONE TO CHEAT ABOUT HIS CLASS! THE TEST IS IN CLASS AND DOES NOT OPEN THE TEXTBOOK, YOU HAVE TO RMB THE FORMULAS. AWFUL! A paper sheet of exam with 15 questions from ez to hard asf, 4 test n drop 1 lowest. 1 hw section w 100qs u only do 50/100

A lie that he wants everyone to take the test online but in reality he just doesn't want anyone to cheat on his test. 15 questions range from ez to difficult and u must present your work on. He said just do 50% of the hw and he will grade 100, 4 tests n drop 1 lowest. Lots of hw, take him if you have a good memory to remember the whole formula.

He says he's the ez but actually he's the hardest, take him if you want to take the test in class with no textbook or open notebook. Proof to him how u get that answer. Boring class, the way he teaches is just way to long in a class. Does not give us the review before the test, dedicated but not easy, enticed me to subscribe to his youtube channel

rlly likes to attract attention. He buys time for everything DURING CLASS and solves problems in his own way(confusing). The test is very HEAVY he always says that the formula will be written on board (not clear), a lot of HW BUT need to do 50/100. 4 tests and DROP 1 LOW. Get him if you want to try at self-study and TEST IN-CLASS. boring,confusing.

Mr. Whitt is an AWSOME PROFESSOR!!!!. He states everything pertaining to the syllabus in the 1st or 2nd class CLEARLY. Drops the lowest test score. Only requires you to do 50 percent of the HW. Do the discussions and participate in class by asking questions. What more do you want? He is always willing to help, but you have to do your part as well.

Mr. Whitt was by far my best professor from HCC, he made the math understandable and was willing to take time in order for us to understand the things we had trouble with. Very engaging I will definitely take him again as an instructor.

Professor Whittington is the best math prof I've had. He doesn't mind to explain a topic multiple times, and he will review hw problems from previous lectures. He does occasionally go off topic but he will compensate with reviews and his own YouTube channel. Lots of homework but do half and you get a 100. Few questions on exams. Good overall.

Professor Whittington is not a good teacher, I don't know why he has a 5 star rating. I am a 4.0 GPA student and this was the most awful experience I've had with any professor. Class lasts like 1hr 30 but spends 1hr talking about him, so you must review everything on your own and that's it. There's barely any time for questions. I would stay away

I took him on summer 2024 Pre cal and he is the best teacher so far. Alot of extra credits, great inspiring lectures, dropped the lowest test score, just have to finish 50% of the homework and he gives a full grade for it at the end of the semester. I really wish he teaches Cal 1 so I can take it again 🙏. 10/10 highly recommending yal to take him

He buys time for everything DURING CLASS and solves problems in his own way. The tests are difficult, he always says that the formulas will be written on the board. Expect a lot of hw if you taking 2 courses with him only have to complete one course hw. 4 tests per class and drops lowest grade. Get him if you want to self-study and still get a 50.

Took this class based off the good comments of this professor. Just let me tell you if you are good with teaching yourself take this class if you have questions or need help find another professor who will care to give you the time. THIS PROFESSOR TALKS ALOT......and does not explain the steps well to understand. Glad I left before it was too late.

He is funny and chill, and his class is very easy. It is hard to fail, and he gives a lot of extra credit. However, I would not recommend him for engineering students or those planning to take Calc 2, since he only covers the basics and requires a lot of self-study.
