Extremely articulate, and a pretty cool guy. Knows the difference between explaining something and just standing around and talking. Two thumbs up.

great teacher. hard class. he actually explained stuff though. he didnt just give us some problems and told us to figure them out. he is available between classes if you need extra help.

I took him for 3 classes (Bus. Calc, Col Algebra, and Intermediate Algebra). Obviously I enjoyed his classes or else I wouldn't have taken him over and over. I like how he didn't just throw you out in an ocean and expect you to learn to swim on your own. He was always so willing to help. I would take him again if I were still at ACC.

Awesome instructor! knows his stuff and cares if you learn. will take him again for other classes.

This professor is very clear on during his lectures, however his tests are rather difficult. There were no A's in my class and he does not curve so "what you get is what you get." Quizzes are easy if you do your homework. I enjoyed his class, but do not expect it to be easy.

He teaches real good but makes the test extemely hard. Calculus is meant to be hard but i had friends that were in UT this semester and their class was way easier than this man's. No complaints but just be ready for hard test. He likes to throw in 2 or 3 extremely hard word problems that can kill your A on the test real quick!!

cool guy. He's funny and he knows what he is teaching. If you go to class and do the assigned homework (that he doesnt collect) you will make an A. You get what you put into it. Math is easy for me so i dont put much into it but i still mad an A

Great teacher,knows what he is talking about. Assigns homework but will never grade it. It's up to you to look over your homework he assigns from the book to know your material.Test are a bit hard but not if you do your homework. He will ask if anyone has questions from the homework the next class period so if you don't get something ask him.

This was a hard class. For me it required a lot of time studying and reviewing notes. Although he is a bit stuck up, he does care for his students and is willing to lend a hand. I ended up with a D but what he taught me made life a whole lot easier the second time around.Since he doesn't curve or grade homework falling behind is easy, but dagerous

You get what you get. There are no curves. IF you attend and do the homework you will pass with an A or B. Hes a good prof

The guy knows what he's talking about. If you're confused, he mostly like can see why and will get you on track quickly. Do all of his recommended homework assignments and follow his study guide, you're golden. His tests can be tricky but if you study like you should, again, you're golden. I hate math and he makes it a walk in the park.

Easy to understand

Counts off on your quizzes and tests for stupid stuff that isn't relevant, tries to trick you occasionally .

He's occasionally kinda mean, but he really pushes students to be the best. If you really want to learn math, take his class(es) and PAY ATTENTION. If you study and do the not-required homework, you will learn SO much. I took his Int. Algebra class and then decided to take his other classes(as did a few other students in my class). Take him!

He does not try to trick you, and is not mean, y'all are just mad lol. He is crystal clear in his lectures and sets you up for good notes. He really cares about his job and it shows. I definitely learned a lot and feel prepared to move on. He is a very good teacher

Professor Karl is a great teacher! I came into the class completely confused by math, and now I get it. He's great about explaining concepts, going into the details, and sticking with things until everyone understands it. My favorite math professor yet!

I took him for Business Calc I. YOU HAVE TO DO THE HOMEWORK!!! He is a great professor; really passionate about math. Go to class and spend 8-10 hrs per week studying and doing homework and you'll have no problems. YOU HAVE TO DO THE HOMEWORK!!!

Prof Karl is tough but I loved him. If you struggle with math take someone else. Otherwise, just do the homework and you'll be golden.

The good part is he knows what he is talking about. You will learn a lot. The downfalls however outweigh the good. He is an extreamly tough grader and puts overly complicated questions on the exam. Over half of the class failed every exam. The third ranked person in the class had a 71. I would never take him again. Good luck if you do!

Professor Karl is awesome. He really pushes you to work harder. His lectures are clear. His tests are not hard if you put in the work. He is not there to hold your hand. There is no curve in the real world. If you are transferring to a 4 year college, this is what every class is like. Put in the work and you will be fine and learn something.

Mr. Karl's math class is not easy. He is helpful and answers students' questions in class or in his office. The homework is not graded but a must-do if you want to keep up with the lessons. Quiz and Exams are fairly challenging, sometimes there were surprises which I did not like. Must do well on the quizzes and exams to earn a good grade.

Challenging. There is little extra credit & no homework grade to pad your scores or force you to study. Prof. Karl doesn't hold your hand, but doesn't hesitate to ask for & answer even simple questions. Great lectures, take good notes & STUDY THE EXAMPLES he gives, they'll be on the test. He's also generous with partial credit, show your work!

Hard but definitely helpful. This is the kind of class exceptional students want to take. Many people do not like this class because he doesn't hold your hand throughout the course. Those are the people that drop out and are unsuccessful. If you want to learn calculus take this class. You WILL learn it if you follow his rules. Excellent class

This is a moderately difficult class. Do not expect to pass if you do not do homework, take good notes and study outside of class. Weekly quizzes, Four tests. He does not grade homework, but he does go over questions the class has. Study hard, use your resources, and you will be able to fight for your A.

The class itself is time constrained, and there is no extra credit or curve cushion. The lectures are easy to understand, the homework is fine (he doesn't grade it, but it is easy to get), and the quizzes are fine if you do the homework. The tests, however, are completely different and difficult no matter how much you study. See other comments.

Excellent professor! He makes math enjoyable and understandable! Definitely recommend!

Professor Karl is an excellent math teacher! His lectures are very clear and he explains the material so that it really makes sense -- very precise and articulate for this difficult subject. He takes class very serious, but has a great sense of humor. He does not require you to turn in the homework, but doing it will help tremendously on the tests!

He is no nonsense type of teacher. He starts off the first class giving statistics about how many people will pass his class and the answer is not many will pass. He does not curve grades or offer extra credit. He does assign homework that he will not grade but if you want to pass his quizzes and test you have to do. I did enjoy his class.

Do your homework! Not graded, but it is the only way to understand everything. There is NO EXTRA CREDIT, NO CURVE & No Formula charts! Gives copies of all your quizs & tests so you can use them to study more, + he spends the first 10 - 15 min going over any questions. He is a GREAT teacher, you have to work for it! Helps students during office hrs.

It's a college course, and you're expected to act like it's one. You're responsible for doing your homework, and he will help you if you have questions. He does give partial credit if your work right but your answer is wrong. Petty chill, pretty laid back, but you gotta work for your grade. Great professor though. I no longer hate math.

He is a strict professor for sure, but he explains everything thoroughly and gives ample warning what will be on tests and quizzes. He tells you the dates of all the quizzes and tests as well. The only reason to not pass the class is if you didn't do all the homework. If you do the homework and you knew it all you should be fine.

Overall excellent professor, he provides clear criteria and expectations. However he is strict and you will have to work hard for an "A".

As long as you do the homework, he does review some questions, given each day, you can pass his class. A fairly large amount of warning before the tests and quizzes and what they cover.

Professor Karl will make you work hard for your grade. He is clear with the lectures and gives good feedback. If you skip his class you will miss good information and probably won't pass. He drops the two lowest quiz grade but does not gives credit for homework He does cares for his students when he sees they are putting the work. Great Professor!

I took two different courses with this professor. He goes through each and every step in a problem. If you are not paying attention, skipping class, and not doing your homework then you will fail. The ones that dropped the class were mainly high school students that didn't take his class seriously. He prepares you for the next course you will have.

Prof. Karl is great. He's an awesome teacher, but he expects you to actually study outside of class. If you don't put in your own time, you will not pass his class. He drops the lowest test grade and replaces it with your final, if it's higher, of course; my final brought my grade up from a B to an A. Study your old tests and quizzes!

If you truly want to learn the material he is the professor to take. He can come off harsh sometimes but he does not lack in his teaching. I left his class actually knowing and understanding the material. If you are serious about your education this is the kind of professor you want to take. I wish I could take him for all my math classes.

Math for Bus, Bus Calc. Organizes material to understand the math rather than memorize processes, good teacher. Homework is not graded but he reviews it in class, so have questions ready. If you miss more than one class you'll probably fail. NOTES. Test are difficult. Quizzes on wed/thurs. Keep track of your own grade. Can be blunt, just ignore it.

Prof Karl is passionate about the subject he teaches, he is also very serious about respect in the classroom and very clear on the amount of WORK that will go into being successful in the class. His rules are strict but just. His teaching is kind of old school BUT effective. If you do not put in the TIME to study/practice material, you will fail.

Professor Karl is an excellent professor. He responds well to questions in class, and will not hesitate to redo any homework/test/quiz problems after the fact. This is a math course so, don't skip class. As with any college course, the grade you get is a direct reflection of how much time you put into it. Stay focused, I believe in you.

Ive taken this professor multiple times and I will continue to do so for future math courses. He explains the material well and breaks it down into the easiest way possible for students. It can be a difficult course because it is math. If you pay attention, do the homework, and go to class, your grade will reflect! Highly recommend him.

Professor Karl pulls no punches, and his Business Calculus class was the hardest course iv'e ever taken. In a class of 32, only 8 students remained at the final exam. However, this was due to the difficulty of the material and limited class time. If you are willing to put in the necessary work, professor Karl is an excellent person to learn from.

Mr. Karl is an excellent Math teacher at ACC! I think he gets a bad rep bc he doesn't allow students to use graphing calculators, but tbh you don't really need it in his class. He teaches in a way that makes it really easy. I took him for intermediate algebra after being out of HS for 4 years and made an A. I also took him for college algebra!

Mr. Karl is a tough professor, but if the path to your degree is rife with mathematics, the work you will have to put in for a passing grade will pay off massively in later classes. You won't pass without a concerted effort and a thorough understanding of foundational mathematics.

Professor Karl is a tough but really good teacher. He expects you to keep up and remember the information from your prerequisite course but he is super smart and very good at explaining things. He has been teaching for a long time and knows the easiest, most effective ways of working all the problems. He is WAY better at explaining than the book

He's not the nicest person in the world but he truly does understand the material and teach it in a way that is easy to learn. By far the best math teacher I've ever had. If you can't commit to the work, it'll be hard, and Professor warns people of that. Learning calculus sucks, but Professor Karl reallyyyy knows what he's doing!

Any math-1325 you are going to take is going to be very difficult. He doesnt just give hw assignments bc he wants us to have more of a work load. He gives them because they will help us learn the material. I attended almost every single one of his office hours and I was failing the entire semester - he helped me passed.

Professor Karl is a good teacher. The problem is the people is the class were LAZY. They don't want to do math. Karl has expectations but a negative when it comes to people who are lazy. I liked him and received a good grade and LEARNED.

Karl started class off by saying 50% of us will most likely fail, which was true. It wasn't because he was a bad teacher. It was because most of the kids wouldn't take his class seriously. You'll have homework after every class from the textbook. If you pay attention and ask questions the class should be pretty straight forward. Would take again.
