Wow, he is not only smart beyond belief, but he has a way of making it statistics fun and easy
No Comments
He is AWESOME! The best math teacher anyone could possibly have. You get to use notes on tests, including the final. Very good about taking questions in class. He is very helpful.
Great teacher. Easy to understand, great sense of humor, and excellent teaching technique. Only wish I could take him next semester!
He doesn't usually teach calculus, and you could tell. He always seemed like he wasn't very interested in teaching the class.
Great teacher,genius. EXTREEMLY animated,funny, exitable,weird. I'm on the edge of my seat all class just watching him. I just got a 95 on my last test, and I took precalculus twice without evn getting a B. If you work hard, you'll succeed. Highly recommended
I wasn't sure about the guy before taking his class but he turned out to be my favorite math teacher. Very easy going with lots of dry humor that is far beyond your typical paid comic. He is a very down to earth and sincere which makes you want ot learn. High regards and respect from this student.
he is cool, but a little unclear
Fantastic. Very engaging teaching style. Seems to really care that his students are getting the material. Absolutely recommend his classes. The best math class I've ever taken.
He is hillarious, we were always laughing, always having fun. It was a great class (not just a great math class)
He is an easy grader, very laid back, and clear in his teaching. He is soooo funny and helpful. He definetly keeps the class interesting.
This guy is the best math teacher i have ever had. he actually teaches, likes the material and his tests are on exactly what he says they will be. in the two classes i took from him he either lets your homework count as a test grade or you can not do any homework and just have your test grades be your grade... so great for those who hate homework.
if you hate math & have trouble, this teacher is for you! he is so funny and really keeps you interested which definitely helps you learn better.I'm the worst math student and I got a B! He never makes you feel stupid and encourages you when you ask questions.He even relates math problems to his real-life experiences which is weird but it works!
THIS CLASS WASNT EASY BUT THIS TEACHER IS VERY HELPFUL. HE'S VERY LAID BACK AND MOVES AT A NICE PACE. HE'S VERY HELPFUL AND CLEAR. ALLOWS PAGE OF NOTES ON TESTS AND ON FINAL.
Very light with attendance. Willing to answer questions and engage class. Has sense of humor.
Very available for help either through office hours or e-mail. Very laid back, he has this philosophy that "if you need help and need to learn it then be here, if you don't want to be here then don't come. Just do the work". Very relaxed att. req
hes funny! he has a weird way of teaching "i don care!" is what he always says---i reccomend this class
He's very funny but I just feel that the class wasn't THAT interesting math wise.
Not my favorite teacher. He's kind of scatter-brained and he's not at all clear. He made me feel like a mathematical idiot-- but NOT intentionally! I just felt out-of-the-loop in the class! Probably my fault, but his teaching style didn't help one iota.
He is the best math teacher at in the department at both campuses. Very helpful and quite entertaining. the test are very relative to the homework and quizzes so no shananagins with him.
Goob ended up being one of my favorite teachers. He is hilarious! Class is fun. He is very helpful, and the homework and tests are exactly what he tells you prior to when its due.
Very unclear, very hard to follow. Unfortunately, we're not all math majors, and even if we were, plain English is not his specialty. He's also highly unorganized. I just took this class as a psych major prereq, and I'm very glad to be done with it. He's good for a laugh, but he's not much in the way of instruction.
This instructor makes statitistics fun and is interesting to listen too, even though he is a bit of a scatterbrain. He lets students use one page of notes on his tests. Famous reply to a student's somewhat complex question, "The answer is beyond the scope of the class and is covered in a second semester statistics class."
He is a funny guy and all... but very unclear. I do better just reading out of the book to figure out what im doing because when i listen to him i am so lost.
As a math major, I love statistics. Even though I had heard not so good things about this instructor I decided to take the class anyway because it was the only one that would fit in my schedule. Some things I had heard were true, such as scattered and goes of on wild tangents. However he is a great teacher and who else gives you m&m's?
he was a wild one, but loved him. his teaching was all over the place....but he is such a funny guy, you will enjoy this class. i can't believe i am the first one to give this guy a chili pepper! i thought he was adorable!!
I took him for summer school. Had him at 7:30 in the morning! I thought this class was going to be hard to get through but it wasn't bad. He is a fun guy and really nice! Take him if you can!
this guy simply goes a little too fast. It's not that he wont meet with you and explain what you dont understand, but during class he is going around a mile a minute. He is everywhere. For me it was hard to keep up. just a fare warning to those who struggle with a fast paced teacher.
Took this guy for a 5 unit 27 so i ahd him everyday, at first i just saw him as a case of perhaps ADD; but once u take his whole class it comes out nicely. He really wants everyone to have a good grade and will compinsate to achieve this, a little random but a crack up to have, enjoyed having some fun everyday.
Great teacher! Had him for math 155 and I loved the class. He's such a funny teacher! His test are not bad at all. He does give out lots of hand outs that are great for studing. He's always willing to answer any questions you have about homework and your grade. Bug him about using notes on the test and he will let you use them!!!!
Stat is a very easy course. This guy is hilarious and cracks everyone up every class. He makes a two hour class go by really fast. Good class to take.
Eurgubian is FUNNY....you will laugh in class (but mostly at him)! I liked him alot, but he basically has no rules except no gum popping. You can show up to his class only for the tests and still pass. He is very relaxed & allows second chances to make up incorrect test problems. He is very approachable and good explaining problems one on one.

I took Stat and 155 at the same time from him over the summer. 5 hours every day with him, and they flew by! Very entertaining teacher, fun, smart person. all around good guy!
Great sense of humor, makes going to class fun and engaging. clearly explains material, is available outside of class, and is always willing to help. will make learning math a lot more fun.
Very good teacher for statistics. Gives you every chance to pass the class. Extra credit, drops your lowest test score, notes, etc... Take this guy, don't really even have to do the homework.
A true teacher. Statistics is difficult and boring as it is...he made it interesting. Test are challenging but fair. Very funny...keeps a boring topic interesting with humor. A pleasure! If you think that you will have difficulty with the subject then he is the instructor for you. Work hard and you will be rewarded. Quizzes are key!
THis instructor is unorganized and difficult to follow.He is NOT willing to help you out as others say.He thinks he is funny but it's more that he is weird than humorous.If you struggle with Math don't expect to learn from this instructor,your better off taking Clark and enjoy Math without the unnecessary bs that Mike forces on you.Don't waste your
I've had Eurgubian as a teacher and I really enjoyed him. He made the class intresting and fun. He's always willing to help his students! He gives out extra credit and if he makes any mistakes in class or on his work sheets he will give you extra credit. He's a funny teacher and you just have to learn to enjoy his sense of humor.
He tends to be a bit disorganized, but he is a very good teacher. I would recommend everybody take Michael's class whenever you can... on second thought... don't take his class... save me a seat. :)
Was a difficult class, but he makes it easy for the student. Even if you are struggling he will help you. Also he is an interesting person. He always has interesting stories and has funny dry humor.
Great teacher, willing to make appts around your schedule when you need help. Always makes grades available so you know where you stand. Fair grading policy, all around a great teacher with excellent class structure. I would strongly recommend him to anyone.
You will definitely laugh in his class for he's just so...funny in a very unique way. He tries hard to give you chances to bring up your grade. He is a generous instructor, overall. His class wasn't challeging though. Go see him often and you will be fine. If math is your major, you should consider taking another instructor; if not..ENJOY!!
He's hilarious! The funniest teacher ever! He's also very helpful, but I found him to be a bit disorganized with his lectures. Some things were hard to comprehend. If you ask for help he's more than willing to help
He is the worst teacher I've ever had.He is disorganized and unclear and changes due dates/exam dates constantly, so the syllabus is useless and you'll never knew what is expected.He's only funny if you don't take your grade seriously.Don't leave the classroom during break since he makes his most important announcements during that time!
This guy was my 7th grade math teacher and his teaching made me love math! He was great back in the 70's.
He can be hard to follow at times, especially if math is not your thing, but he cares about his work and students and will help you if you need. His tests are straight forward and he allows notes. What more can you ask for?
I did not like how much time he spent talking about nonsense(his personal life,politics,etc) when he could have focused more time on stats. This class is very hard, i fell a little behind on homework after the 1st test and I couldnt get caught up. Use the tutoring center and his office hours
ballin
He is an awesome teacher, very helpful and cares deeply about the students passing his class. He made math fun for me and I learned a lot from his class, I highly recommend him!!!!
Fun... for a math class. He has a weird sense of humor, and it's not always clear what is due when, but he'll take late work without marking you down. Great math teacher though, very clear, and helpful. He tells you exactly what will be on the test, not that much homework, offers extra credit, if the grades are low he'll do something to get them up
Michael is a great teacher. Though his lectures are packed with lots of information, he keeps it light by throwing in jokes. He truly wants students to succeed and he gives you every opportunity to get extra credit and maybe even re-take an exam question you bombed. I highly recommend him if you struggle with Math.
very fun guy. makes things pretty easy and his grading system works out so you don't have to do the homework. not too many surprises in terms of problems on tests or anything like that. great teacher, helpful in office hours, and pretty funny to boot. would definitely recommend michael to anyone
You have to find ways to understand the material if you don't get it in class (lectures from book), but he will give you so many opportunities to raise your grade. Do the homework and quizzes, and you should be able to get through. No surprises on the tests, plus notes. Not really clear, but he will help you with anything during OH.
Forgot to add...very unique sense of humor that will keep you from falling asleep at 7:30 in the morning.
I heard that statistics was pretty hard, but when I took it from this guy, it was easy! You have to pay attention in class and do the homwework and quizzes, if you do these you'll be set. If you can do all of the quizzes easily, the final will be a piece of cake. I definately recommend this guy if you're taking statistics, he keeps you laughing and makes the class fun. Oh, and no snapping gum in his class, he'll kick you out haha
Wow! ADHD is all I could think of. Very nice man, but so unorganized and spacey, which is totally understandable if you know his schedule. The material is also difficult. Study hard and often if you take this class!!
He's a funny guy and really nice, but kind of a spaz. Lectures are pretty unorganized and sometimes hard to follow; I learned most of the material from the book. Six tests and homework, lowest grade gets dropped (which means you can just skip homework and only do the tests if you want).
He is a great teacher!! had him for stats was very helpful and has a great sense of humor. made the class fun :)
He loves to tell stories, and he will make it so it's pssible to pass the class. But assignment #'s due dates, ect ect none of it is organized. Lots of the time I did homework early or late because he never told us when it was due. He takes late homework. His lectures in the morning are not that great. Poor guy need more sleep, not really his fault
Best teacher ever! I will ONLY take Goob for my math classes! He is funny and I love his teaching style. Easy test and final. Helps you prepare for them with the quizzes. Allows you to use them on the tests. Awesome teacher! I highly recommend!!
Not only does he love statistics, but he loves making this class as easy as possible for those who don't. He makes cheat sheets for you for exams, and accepts late homework for full credit if you do extra problems. He can be a little scatterbrained, but his sense of humor makes up for it. Will do everything he can to help you learn!
Funny, easy-going
Take Goob for stats, you will be happy!
Take Eurgubian and you won't regret it! Best math teacher I've ever had. He knows what he's talking about, he has a passion for it and he is hilarious! You will not only learn a lot but you will have fun while doing it!
Mr. Eurgubian is DROP DEAD HILARIOUS. It was so hard to not fall out of my chair from laughing so hard! If he ever gets tired of being a teacher he should be a comedian. Seriously, he's got some jokes. I would love to just hang out with him and have a conversation sometime. Teaching-wise, his class is very difficult and he usually goes of track.
Eurgubian is very funny and smart. His teaching style isn't always easy to follow especially early in the morning but he gives quizzes that aren't actually graded, you do them together in class, and they are very close to the test. Nightly homework can replace a bad test score.
Great professor! For years math has been my weakness, but I actually enjoyed stats with Eurgubian. He explains things very well, and goes over lots of examples. He is funny too, which makes class fun and enjoyable. Posts in-class practice problem solutions online. If you pay attention in class and study, you'll get a good grade! Take him!
Excellent instructor, Highly! recommended, and funny. He makes the subject enjoyable. Clear explanations, reviews examples (quizzes), helpful tip, alternate formulas (easier), in-class practice problems have solutions posted online. He's very fair in grading. Homework can replace lowest test score. Notes and tip sheets allowed on exams.
I took Stats w him over Summer. He is pretty hilarious in a dark east coast sarcastic way. He is a real college teacher, doesn't baby you like you are in high school, ask for your hallpass or grade you down for absences. Memorize the Model problems & you will pass the tests, for they are exactly what the test are made with. I got a B and hate math
Goob is really funny. He's sarcastic and eccentric, and still manages to be great at teaching math.
Eurgubian is not a good teacher. I had him for a morning math class in which he constantly made mistakes during lectures. This made it very difficult to learn the material in class. If you have knowledge of statistics prior to this class you will do great. If not, spend time in the tutorial center to ensure you get a good grade.
Gubian is a great teacher! Loves ducks! He is really funny! Always says OH NO! He never messed up in my class. I recommend taking his class. 4 test and a Final. Test are extremely easy. Use his office hours. Homework is optional but recommended. He will be teaching Spring 2015 :)
Eurgubian is one of the best professors I've had, and is hilarious yet straight to the point during lessons. He always offers help, is available in the tutorial center before class, and has "quizzes" that aren't graded which work as study guides for his tests. His grading method works really well, and doesn't leave me stressed. Overall thumbs up!
Even though his class was entertaining, I had an extremely hard time following his way of taking notes (not really notes, just examples with no steps or explanations). I also had a hard time following when things were due because he would constantly change the due date, sometimes it would be due that day and then say it was due a week from now.
Eurgubian is not only a good teacher, but hilarious as well. You'll never be bored taking a class with him, and the homework assignments aren't awful (and they're also optional). Really thankful I got Eurgubian for math because he really does want you to pass, and makes sure there's extra credit so you can raise your grade. HIGHLY recommend.
I loved Eurgubian!! He is really funny so it makes class entertaining. He wants his students to succeed. The tests and homework are really clear cut and straight forward. If you put in the work, you will do fine in his class. Awesome teacher! ! I highly recommend! !
Best teacher I have ever had. If you show up and put effort in there is no way you wont pass and getting an A is easy as long as you do the homework and study. Best teacher. I dropped stats in High school and in this class Got an A. If you dont take this class your missing out
Goob is a really nice guy, and he makes himself constantly available outside of class. His lectures consist of describing just how much he likes coffee and filling out 'sample quizzes' which he then posts online with his solutions. A page of notes is allowed during tests. Homework is optional. He tells you exactly what will be on every test.
Stats was enjoyable with goob. Hes unorganized, but hes also quirky and witty. I didnt do any homework and passed easily. Make good notes for the test! The first two tests are difficult but dont give up, the second two are way easier. He really cares about his students so if youre struggling see him for help.
Michael's class was fairly easy if one could keep to the equally easy homework and do average study for his tests as he allowed notes while taking them. He is very funny while lecturing. On the flip side, he is ver unorganized and made me come back to check on assignments winch he graded and already handed back because he forgot to put them in.
Michael is nice and caring guy. Every class he mostly lectures. All of the Sample Quizzes which are more like worksheets (done in class) are just like the problems on the tests. He tells you what problems will be on it and homework is optional. I had to get a lot of outside help to understand some of the concepts. But he always offers office hours.
The Goob was a fantastic stats teacher. As someone who was nervous about having to take a math class after putting it off for so long, I felt comfortable and encouraged in the classroom. Practice the sample quizzes, do the homework to cover yourself in case your test average is low, and you should be fine. Reach out to him and he will happily help.
Great statistics professor! Although it was tough to achieve an A in this class, if you pay attention to lectures and study, it is doable. He incorporates humor into all lectures and he is more than happy to help and answer any questions during class or during office hours. Homework is optional and there are 4 exams total. Loved this class!
Michael is probably my favorite math teacher I have ever had. He is really funny and explains material in a very clear, concise way. There are tests on each chapter covered and a final, so no midterm exam. He gives homework but grades for completion more than correctness. Overall a really great, caring teacher, I had a lot of fun taking his class.
He's funny and caring. He offers extra help outside of class, so I highly recommend taking use of his office hours if needed. He gives extra credit and willing to help you improve your grade. He provides sample quizzes, which are really helpful in preparing for exams. You just need to pay attention & complete your quizzes to do well in his class.
