Dr. Brin teaching methods are very poor. He seen to favor math major students over non math major students. I recived a D- as a student, and I gave him an F as a teacher.

Brin is a very unfair grader. On exams, he present material that he does not cover during review. He will teach specialize knoledge(MAT) like general knoledge(art and literature). That is a NO! NO!

He does not explain things well. He is an unfair grader. His games are boring. He has no compassion for students. He will not help you improve your grade at all.

HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!It seems ok in the beginning but as the material gets harder, he doesn't explain things well. He does not go over the quizzes well, doesnt give enough time to complete them and isnt very compassionate about situations that could arise.

Worst teacher i have ever had in college. Does not care if students learn or not. Ovoid at all costs!!!

He's a boring teacher and an unfair grader. He makes up his own rules to games and teaches nothing realtive to math. Don't take him if you don't have to. Stick with another professor!!

Horrible teacher. He moves way to fats for anyone to keep up. He thinks that everyone knows everything in the subject...Avoid him!!!

he is the reason people do not like mat. he is bored. for class evaluation I writte removed from SCSU staff. Soon! avoid!

this teacher stinks, he is the worse and the most unfair

um are you serious? they most definately could have found someone more qualified to fulfill this job...

There is nothing nice that can be said about this man. He moves slow, throws curve balls on the test, and ultimately doesn't care if you pass or fail. Honestly the worst teacher I've ever had at this school.

He is extremely confusing. He does not make any sense. When he teaches, it is like he is talking to himself. My advice is to avoid his class at all costs. But as far as intelligence goes, I believe he ranks at the level of genius. But he is difficult to talk with. He constantly refutes you, even if you are right.

This guy is a disgrace on this school...hes not professional..he doesnt have any communication skills...tons of homework..not helpfull. sarcastic and rude at times..please dont ever take him.....i started with 25 students in the class at the end of semester we had 6 out which 2 failed..no kidding ...wat a shame....

The guy acts like he doesnt care about mathematics. He shows little enthusiasm. When you have a question, he always says you are wrong. He is ready to fall asleep on you when you go to his office. He shrugs his shoulders when you have a question, and asks you to figure it out. He is obsessed with Linux, and uses cryptic arcane programs

The worst professor I have ever had. He can be very rude, and his blank expression gives you know clue as to what he is thinking. He answers questions, "how should I know, why are you asking me". He assigns insanely difficult homework without a clue how to finish. He teaches a bunch of uncorrelated techniques. The worst class experience ever!!

He stinks and won't answer questions.

I had Brin for a low-level math course; by all means the course should have been a breeze. The only thing bigger than Brin's head was his attitude. He is unclear, unhelpful, and was disrespectful to many of the students. He is the worst teacher I have ever had, and should not be allowed to deal with the public.

i had him for college algebra, he has to be the worst teacher i ever came across, his test was covered nothing that he taught in class its like he is playing games with your grade. he didnt teach angthing that he place on the test he is ridiculous he takes pleasure in seing people fail. he should definitely not be teaching math.

Worst teacher ive ever had, anything he taugh in class was not on any tests, absolutely ridiculous, dont take him if you dont need too.

I was a math major and took an analysis class with Brin. I still have nightmares thinking about getting my degree because of him. I failed the course the first time. I asked for help...he only made me feel stupid and cry. Dr. Kavanaugh took me on as an independent study so that I could graduate on time. My worst memory/experience at Southern. I wor

Dr. Brin is a sorry excuse of a human being. He is sarcastic, rude, disrepsectful, and could care less about your grade. He gets off on watching students fail. I went to every class, studied for hours and hours on end, and he still failed me. His tests are bull, he lies and says things wont be on the tests when they really will be. DON'T TAKE HIM!!

Took this class & dropped it! He is bad at explaining things and he's boring. Please don't do this to yourself!!

DON'T DO IT !!! This class gave me nightmares and great depression(SERIOUSLY)Teaches very fast, doesn't do too much explaining, never goes over homework, grades off of test and exams in which you don't get much time to complete. Don't torture yourself .

He needs to take a course on how to teach a class. I am a very hard working student and he failed me how does a semester full of B's and C's land me with a final grade of a D-? He doesn't go over homework and doesn't give real notes, all he does is lecture and solves problems in front of you. I would not recommend him to anyone.

nice guy but awful professor. I've never worked so hard for a poor grade in my life & that's the truth. This semester I had 3 A's, a B and a D+ in his class. Worst thing is his practice reviews/tests are nothing like the real exams bc he's lazy. No no no no no no save yourself

Prof. Brin is a nice man but an awful professor. He flies through the material and never takes the time to fully explain what it is he's doing. I have never worked so hard for a failing grade. I am an AB student and this course does not reflect my work ethic. It's disappointing to have a professor who does not the time for his students.

I took him last semester. He's a nice enough guy but can't teach to save his life. There are quizzes every Friday based off of the homework. The homework almost always comes from the textbook, but is more like a work book. It didn't explain how to do anything, so essentially unhelpful. If you didn't understand the homework, you will fail the quiz.

Terrible teacher. Felt stupid asking questions. Office hours didn't help. Nothing made sense to me, there was no flow or order. The class felt messy. I couldn't understand the book/HW. Wouldn't let me withdrawal so I ended up failing. Retook the same class with a different professor 2 semesters later as a grade replacement - passed with a B+.

Don't take

Hard

Only came to finally understand Prof. Brin's Math at the end of the semester and still left perplexed.

I had him for MAT104. Unlike other math courses, there were no tests but projects that your grade heavily relied on. He didn't supply good grading criteria and graded harshly. He tried to come off as a fun, easy-going professor, but was anything but that. It was hard to get into contact with him in or outside of class. I would not recommend him.

discouraging professor, if you have the chance to take a class with him DO NOT.

The workbook does most of the explaining, don't even think about asking him a question you're not getting an answer. not only does the textbook do a better job and “explaining” ,but it also has a better personality.
