I've taken 060, 070, and 140 with him. He is a really great math teacher and he's super nice. He gives you all the equations that you're going to need so that you have them with you for the exam, and never need to memorize them. You only need to know how to use them which is great for people like me who struggle at math. He really is the best!

He's pretty young for a professor and it shows in his class. His lectures are unorganized and kind of all over the place.

The material for the class is not hard, but if you are confused, he will become frustrated and rude if you ask more than one question. The tests have 25% math and 75% useless history info questions. He has an attitude with people that are lost and thats not a good teacher. Try anther teacher that will care about and motivate you to get a good grade

He was not helpful or a good teacher AT ALL! He was so rude and condescending when you would ask for his help.
