Professor Negron knows what he is doing for sure. As long as you participate in class, do the work, and ASK QUESTIONS if you do not understand, you'll pass for sure. There is a bit of homework, but nothing a college student can not handle as long as they DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE WEEKEND BEFORE to finish all three chapters of homework in one night!

He is a great professor. He gives a lot of homework which is necessary for a calculus student. He would try to help you pass by giving extra credit activities. He says by the end of the semester students would know how to take limits and understand what is a derivative, so expect that in every single tests.

I loved his class. Calculus is hard and there is a lot work to do, but it's worth it. I learned a lot with Professor Negron. If you decide to work hard and learn calculus, I recommend him

You are assigned a lot of homework, but he does it because he wants you to succeed and have a lot of practice. He makes a large effort to help his students succeed if the student shows a desire to learn and do well. Get to class on time, do your homework, and talk to him when you need help. And youll do okay!

Professor Negron has a ridiculously awful teaching style. He spends hours explaining the easy concepts but then flies through the difficult ones. He refers to himself in 3rd person all the time which confuses everyone. He tries to make jokes and be humorous which says that hes only doing that to get his class approval and not actually teach.

Definitely would not take again, which is a shame because the concept of test corrections is great. VERY loud, constantly trying to assert his authority for no reason by calling people out (don't even TRY to take notes on a laptop, he will yell at you in front of the class), and people are failing the class anyway so it's not like it works out.

Worst professor I have ever taken. This is coming from a usually straight A student with a GPA of 3.8. For the first time in my life, I was actually afraid of failing a class. Rude, doesn't know how to explain the concept, offers test corrections but barely raises your grades. He yells at you for coming into class 1 minute late. DO NOT TAKE.

Listen. I'm terrible at math, and this semester was especially tough for me with covid. I might even have to retake. However, Negron is the best math professor I have ever had. His explanations, willingness to help, funny persona, and helpful grading scale makes it easier. For me, I was lazy this fall, that's my own fault. Take him, he's the best.

very clear on how he grades his exams. However, the tests will be difficult because of how he shapes the problems. Do the reviews and learn to see how he grades exams and stuff will make sense. Also very dynamic and funny teacher.

Mr. Negron was a great professor. Although, it depends on who you talk to. To me, the pace of the class felt just fine. Some other peers described it as fast. However, it depends on how you learn best. Although he did teach fast in some instances, if you were to ask him for more clarification on a topic you missed he would gladly go back over it.

Professor Negron has a unique teaching style, but if you engage with it and use resources like unstuck ai, you can succeed. Expect challenging exams, but the material is manageable with diligence.

Negron will explain and go over a lot of stuff, so there's hardly, if ever, going to be something on the test he didn't cover in class. His lectures are long, but he does take a break somewhere in the middle of class. He likes a challenge, so if you like math, take him. If you just need the credit (Medicine majors and others), don't.
