The fact that he teaches on a university level which is too difficult for, and completely wasted on, the lazy idiots out there is not his fault. The only way to learn math is by doing it.

Best teacher you'll ever have! He's very thorough & he will try to help you understand as best as he could. He could be strict at times (especially with cellphones in class so TURN IT OFF!) He will try to show you how to solve problems the Marroquin way because it's really easy if you learn it. He could be funny too! Be ready for LOTS of HOMEWORK!

He loves to see his students in class, taking notes. Lots of homework & assigns the odd problems of the section learned. Homework is extra credit, but strongly recommended to pass each test. No calculators allowed, but he does grade on a curve. Going to tutoring in math lab is essential. Nice man with character, integrity and a good sense of humor.

There were way too many people in his class, and I could not make out his english. He went too fast and did not explain well.

there is a lot of homework in this class! i would stay p every night until 4am doing it! i wouldn't recommend this class if you have other hard classes in your schedule and if you work full time! he rushed the last chapters and made it very hard in the final.

he is a great professor. will not move on until ALL questions have been answered. he does give hw almost everyday and it's a lot of work, but if you have questions he will answer them thoroughly. i really hope to be able to get into his class the upcoming semester

He made it easy for me to understand math. I can fairly say he is the best math professor I had. He loves what he does and he loves to help his students. Because of him (his teaching style/strategy) I am not intimidated with numbers anymore.

Horrible teacher. He probably paid for any positive reviews. His explanations are unclear and it is obvious he doesn't care about student comprehension. He gave one "A" in the entire class and a large number of students dropped because of his apathy. I enjoy math but hated his class. Take any other teacher.

He makes learning math a pain. You're more worried about him embarrassing you or complaining that you don't know than your grade. TONS of HW, every odd every day. Jumps around in the book a lot. If you aren't writing every second, he will yell at you. If you don't bring your book, he will yell then too. Take somebody else!!

He is an awesome professor. If you are accustomed to being spoon fed, rather than taught, you may not want to take him. Lots of HW, which pays off (if u do it). We are all adults, so he treats his students like it. He's a bit aggressive, but clearly knows what he's doing. I recommend him, if you're willing to EARN a good grade!

Here's a simple mathematical equation: Don't skip class + do your homework + study + ask questions = A. Works for me every time. I happen to think he's a great teacher but I get A's whether I like profs or not.

Ha!Should have listened to the warnings about A LOT of homework. If I hadn't had some of this stuff back in the day in high school I would possibly have cried myself to sleep. But he is hilarious in his own way, treating us like he believes we can do better than we think, possibly knowing we don't get it yet. It's a recommend with homework warning!

he is a nice proffesor but he gives a lot of homework if you dont like to do hw dont enroll in his class , he is also very strict with attendance but if you have an emergency just talk to him and he will understand. Very good teacher if u do all the hw and ask questions and go to the lab

I will Never forget when He told two top students who asked him for help and not to rush through chapters that he had a "quota to fulfill" Which was more important to him than his students learning and understanding. A horrific experience. Any teacher that is more concerned with rushing through chapters than a student reaching out is NOT a TEACHER

MY comment is kinda late considering that he's retired now, but to me, this teacher was one of my favorite math teachers. Some folks say he's a little hard to understand, or gives too much hw (which he does), but for some reason I understood the material he gave out and wanted to learn more. He just believes that you can do better!
