Professor Gerakios is a great professor for this subject. He makes the class fun to go to because of his jokes. He really does a great job explaining the material and also includes stories to help you remember formulas as well. I recommend anyone to choose Professor Gerakios as their instructor.

So, math, who likes it? Not many, I stopped going to SPC Clearwater campus a few years ago, cause the professors sucked, and the campus as a whole needs some serious improvements, now cause of professor EMANUEL GERAKIOS, I am proud to say I firmly have a grip on math, and will not take math with any other teacher, cause the way he teaches is great

After every class he uploads the notes we took in class for his students to look back to which I found helpfully. He always has stories to tell which made the class more interesting and fun. I would definitely take another class with him.

Taking math online can be challenging, and I don't think Professor Gerakios does anything to make it either more or less difficult. You definitely have to take responsibility for reading through the textbook and practicing before homework assignments and quizzes/tests as it's not assigned. The exams are short so it's important to know everything.

Taking his class made me feel like i understood math for the first time in my life and that i can pursue a major in science without the fear of mathematics. If math was more often taught with its meaning and consideration for the students like its taught by professor Gerakios no students would be anxious. I couldn't' recommend his class more.

I took him for an online/no-zoom class. There was a lot of work to do but he explains his expectations clearly and the ALEKS program was extremely easy to navigate, which made the work easier. Honorlocked mid-term and final, but have ample time to complete work. I would recommend taking him. I wish I took his class in person.

Take his class! He is absolutely caring and WANTS you to pass! This would have been my third time failing this course, and I passed with a C after only doing bare minimum (Juggled a lot of classes, and lots of family stuff, on top of being a mom) I will forever be thankful for him. Uses Aleks, which at first I thought I hated but was so helpful!

I have never been a very good math student but Professor Gerakios pointed out great tools to use such as tutors. He truly cares about your success and making sure you pass if you put in the time and effort. Most math courses are going to be the same because of aleks blame the program if it leaves a sour taste not the professor.

I highly recommend Professor Gerakios. He baby steps writing out every problem, with everything being color coded, making it hard to get lost. This was the best Math teacher I've ever had. In the past I've struggled with this subject, but he made everything so clear. I've never left a Math class being so confident in my abilities until now.

Professor Manuel Gerakios was my first math professor I am by far grateful. I had the opportunity to be in his class; he cares very deeply for his students, and you can tell he loves what he does. He's also a very good mentor as well and a very down-to-earth man, very respectable to say the least. I think many professors should learn from him!

Prof. Gerakios is very kind and respectful, but his ways of teaching were not for me. For anyone who needs more hands-on learning and fast paced lectures might not enjoy this class. While not a criticism, he would sometimes spend an entire class period on two problems which did not help me learn. He is also VERY strict on paying attention.

He is a good professor but I didn't enjoy the class and his way of assigning work. 100% of the work I did was online which really doesn't feel like an in-person class, while his lectures were great I didn't feel the need to listen as I feel I could just do the online work in class during lecture. The final exam even being online just feels... wrong
