One of the worst teachers i've ever had. It was his first year as a college professor. The guy is young and has no clue how to create tests or teach a class sucessfully. On our last test only 1 person recieved a passing grade, then he refused to curve the grades. Strongly recommend avoiding him until his teaching habits develop.

Professor Chiacchiero has a nice personality, however he can be unorganized,lacks experience,and can sometimes be confusing when teaching.(He will write a problem on the board, realize it is incorrect, and erase it to try again)But, he does try, & is willing to help with questions during his office hours.Requires hw from book & coursecompass.

He really isn't a good teacher at all. He tries to rush the class so he can get any many lessons done as he possibly can when no one is even ready to move on. We were supposed to have a review in class the other day to get ready for the test, but instead he just moved on to a new chapter and taught us something else. I really would try to stay away

It's calculus, you can't expect to easily teach it to yourself. If you take notes in class, you should have no problem scoring an A. All tests are 20-25 questions. He drops your lowest test score and replaces it with the final's score. If you got an 80 on the final, then you'd get an 80 on that lowest test. He's very helpful and wants you to pass!!

I had him for College Algebra and his class was alright. The lectures tended to drag on and were somewhat boring, but he did a good job at explaining the information we needed to know in order to pass the class. He was also lenient with homework assignments that students missed due to Hurricane Irma, which was nice of him. Overall, good professor.

Be prepared to take LOTS of notes. (I take notes at a fast pace and event he pace he was moving at was too fast) He isn't very helpful with understanding the topics, if you struggle in math do NOT take this prof. I had to teach myself the material and got extra help and still struggled in this class. Nice guy but awful at teaching.

He is an easy grader, and he does care about how you do as he will always help you out if you have a question. But remember, this is calculus, and calculus is a tough subject if you do not study or put in the work. He removes the lowest quiz score from the final grade.

The whole class this professor just has you take notes. Theres only four tests in the semester. Unless you are naturally good at math, this is not a good class to take. The person sitting beside me taught me more than the professor himself. He does not teach well.

Hes an amazing professor, I dont know why he has such a bad review. He makes sure you understand everything, he lets you take notes, gives easy tests based on the study guides and quizzes. Do your homework and you will pass!

Dont take this Prof if you do not understand math that well. He goes super fast, and barely gives you time to write down. Its all copying notes, mylabsplus, and taking test....... very boring class. Im pretty sure half the class failed.

I'm still in his class and I've had near perfect attendance, his teaching style is very specific and yes it is an option to ask him for clarification outside class, I've learned more from the "busy-work" style homework than class time and you probably will take him as he is one of the only options if you want to take business calculus. TL:DRnotgood

He does not explain things well at all. If you're looking for an easy math class do NOT take him. Very hard to cheat as well.

Professor C is awesome. I had him recently for MAC2233. What I can honestly say is yes, there is a lot of homework and if you procrastinate, you WILL NOT HAVE TIME TO FINISH LAST MINUTE. However, his tests are based off of the review he hands out. Study the review and you will pass. I passed most of his tests and the class in general. Good prof.

Lecture are not the best, he goes very fast that you will only learn during the homework. I paid a tutor and I still was unable to pass this class because test are worth 50% of the grade and I got a 70% on all and final test was just horrible. He makes the test question so difficult so don't even take this class.

Chiacchiero was such a mid teacher. Good at math, bad at teaching. There is nothing positive to say about this man. Lacks empathy and compassion which is crazy because he is a teacher. Does curve or raise grade, what you get is what you get. Does not respond to emails. He is just mid
