He is so boring. Yeah it's an easy class but when teaching he is so confusing. He will put you to sleep. Always sick or something. He always has to double check if he did something wrong and 45% of the time he did. If you have a friend in the class that can sign you in when you're not there then you won't be marked absent so I guess that's good.

Just finished Algebra with him. Gotta B. Good guy. Tells jokes during lecture. Some of them are funny. Always asks class if they need assistance or have any questions before going on to next topic. He doesn't collect HW but goes over some HW questions in class if you ask. Not a hard class if you do the HW. Wish I had Prof Frimerman in HS.

So I should say in advance that I am not the greatest math student. However, this professor was so out of touch with and unable to communicate effectively to my class. He was so inept that the stress of his class caused me to give up on algebra and drop. Unless math is a breeze for you, DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR!

This man is one of the worst professor, not only in the math department but in the whole college. He doesn't teach anything at all. I don't think he knows how to teach. If you need pre calculus, trust you are going to suffer at it. All the things you need to know for next level, you won't learn it with him.

Good guy. Moderate pace. Not a hard grader, but not easy either. Gives partial credit on tests for partially correct work. Reviews homework in class if you ask. Would take again if I need another math class (but I hope not).

Great stats class/prof for anyone who's afraid of math. Most of the stuff is in the calculator so it's not hard. 4 tests & the final isn't accumulative and he allows 1 Cheatsheet per test. If you do a thourough Cheatsheet you'll get an easy A. He values participation. The Calc Handbook is optional but BUY IT because he lets you use it during tests.

Les was a good professor because he was very understanding, straight-Forward, everything you need in a math teacher. The HW wasnt graded, but it is by far the most important thing to do to fully understand the topic, which you will once you do the hw once. 4 test, no final, one page cheat sheet is allowed. Lastly you MUST get his handbook !!!!

A solid math professor. Take the notes and do the homework and you'll pass by a mile. Allows a one page "cheat sheet" to be used in each test. Also, the tests weren't cumulative, which was a big help. My only complaints would be he's hard of hearing and goes a little slow in his lectures, but otherwise he's great.

Goes a bit slow for my taste but otherwise follows a standard "teach then do examples w/ class" style of teaching and allows cheat sheets on the tests. Has a hearing impairment where he has trouble hearing high frequency sounds (like women's voices) so if you're a girl that asks a lot of questions save yourself the headache and look elsewhere.

A really nice guy, and a good teacher. He explains everything really clearly, and helps all his students. He loves participation, and will make sure you benefit if you do. His tests are all open notes, which helps, but its important to do the homework. Theyre short and quick, and theyll really pay off.

If you get bored easily or are lazy, don't take it. It's not a hard class, but if you put no effort you won't pass. Though I literally cheesed my way for the literal minimum for an A, I learned from this experience to actually put effort in my classes and became a better student from it. Overall, his teaching method is fair if a bit dry.

The best decision I ever made in college was take his classes. He is very clear, answers any questions you may have, makes math seem a little easier to understand. His HW assignments are the same as exam questions so if you do the homework and take good notes youll do great! HW isnt checked, do it because you want to pass. TB only for HW in 109.

Professor Frimerman is a very kind person who clearly wants his students to succeed.

Do the work and listen to his instructions because he generously provides exactly what you need for a good grade, and you should be fine.

good professor but to an extent .. he's boring, i when he teaches he teaches himself doesnt do the work full out so it dont help. if he would explain everything throughly i think this would be a better class.. good part is he allows cheat sheets and exams are simliar to hw but i rather learn and understand than to have a cheat sheet.

He's a really nice guy and is very patient with his work. If you need help he will go over it until you understand. I was terrible at math and his teaching methods helped me understand a lot of things. He only gives 4 tests so make sure you do well on every single one. Gives homework that he doesn't grade but if you dont do it you wont pass tests

while hes a nice guy, hes not that good as a professor. hes extremely boring, doesnt teach you much (most of what you learn is coming from homework) and a lot of times isnt very clear/precise in the material. almost 1/3 of my class had to drop him because he barely taught any material on a test and almost all of us failed.

He's a horrible professor, he doesn't explain any of the material he gives you, he only goes through it once. He belittles students for not understanding what he teaches. The only time you learn something is by doing the homework. The only good thing about him is giving you a cheat sheet and his textbook. DONT NOT TAKE HIS CLASS !!!!!!!!!

Professor Frimerman is a great Stat professor. His lectures are clear. best part of his classes is that there is very little math. Almost the entire course is taught using the calculator. Buy his calculator handbook. It's like a real big help in using the calculator. He is really cool on zoom. Tells funny stories during the lectures.
