Mr. Grether is a great professor. I was able to get an A in the class, but it wasn't just by going to class. I did my homework (which there is a lot of) and I studied for the tests (which were kind of hard), and most importantly, I went to the math lab a lot. He's great, but be prepared to put forth some effort into the class.

i really liked how he made sure we were learning the concept behind the math rather than just doing problems in class. i'm a math person, so understanding him wasn't much of a problem for me, but i agree, he talks so fast that he trips himself up a lot. if you're not a math person, then i suggest you take from another professor.

Grether is an awful teacher. He talks a hundred miles a minute and told us at the beginning of the class not to bother with telling him to slow down.

If you are looking for a great MATH 1190 professor, he's your guy. His lectures are very clear and precise. He will help you, even in the middle of class. His feedback is excellent and truly wants you to succeed. You will need to purchase a code to access the homework, the textbook is optional and I wouldn't recommend spending on it.

While Grether is obviously very educated and intelligent, he talks extremely fast and blows through topics in minutes. If you're like me and need a little elaboration when it comes to learning new math topics, you'll have to use outside resources and lots of study time. Homework is time consuming. However, he does want to see you succeed.

Professor Grether is the best professor I have ever had. (I took the 8 week course) We had 3-5 lectures, a homework assignment for each, & a test every week. He is super amazing and does an amazing job at explaining the material, & making sure everyone understands; he is also willing to admit when he makes a mistake & help fix it for everyone.

He is very clearly a smart guy and knows A LOT about his topics that he teaches.... HOWEVER, all of his lectures and exam reviews are too fast and he goes through the topic quickly instead of actually explaining them. ALSO doesnt help that HIDES YOUR GRADE THE ENTIRE SEMESTER. He claims its a distraction but its awful that I cant see what I have.

Such an amazing professor. Strongly recommend you take his class. Always answers any questions you have. Content is simple and straight to the point if you put some effort in understanding the concepts. You'll receive around 2-3 assignments per week but it's really not that bad; each assignment will only take around 1- 2hrs at most.

Grether is clearly a very smart man, and clearly knows what he is teaching. But he talks at 200 words a second, making it VERY hard to understand what he is saying and the lectures. Also, he has a sarcastic attitude that comes off as rude and aggressive. He also gets confused about what he's teaching ALOT (weird for a professor). Wouldnt recommend.

The homework platform is the worst part of this class. You have to pay for "knewton" and do all your assignments through it. Was able to get an A because the tests are way easier than the homework. Prof talks SO FAST and tends to mumble so it can be hard to keep up/understand. He is kind and forgiving and knows what he's talking about.

Mr. Grether is a professor who clearly cares about his student's success. I had zero confidence going into business calculus as I withdrew from it last semester. I went to almost every office hours session he held and he was a TREMENDOUS help. I wouldn't recommend taking anyone else.

Prof Grether is the picture definition of "there is a method to the madness." He is brilliant, even if he talks quickly. Keep on your toes and be ready to keep up during lecture, but don't hesitate to ask questions as he can explain the material in different ways for different learning styles. Amazing, if slightly chaotic teacher. Great guy

An amazing professor. I'm terrible at math and I had never taken a stats class but he made it a great experience. His lectures can be quick, but if you ask him to slow down he will, and you can ask as many questions as you want. If you need help on anything and you email him, he responds back pretty fast. I'd recommend him for this class.

He cares for his students and wants you to pass. He also gets bonus points for being funny and laughing at my jokes. Please take Marc Grether!

This class is difficult. Computers are not allowed in class yet most of our math work is online.This being said it is hard for students to comprehend the subject because the teacher will show us a problem on a computer then proceed to tell us to figure out the answer on paper.Our issue is being lectured and not taught the long way to do the math.

He offers test corrections which really, really save you sometimes. He makes all the material which is a bonus. Material is hard sometimes, but just ask for help, he will move mountains for you!

He talks so fast, like extremely fast. Taking good notes is helpful but I rarely went back to them, I found I learned the most during "solve it and we will talk about it" questions and listening to the lecture rather than scrambling to keep up with him. Pearson is heavy with 4 assignments a week so go to the lectures and ask for help; he'll respond

The professor doesn't allow computers in class even though the course frequently uses Excel, claiming "it is distracting to other students." He also assigns up to 6 assignments a week, which I feel is a bit egregious if you are a student taking 16 or more hours or multiple labs.

In the first few weeks, attendance was required, but later on, it wasn't. There is homework for every lesson/topic. During his lectures, he talks very fast and often goes off on random tangents about various topics in every class. If you have the patience to hear him ramble and talk very fast, and someone who has bad handwriting, take his class.
