I loved Mr. Yarbrough. He's very cute but besides that he is great because he's really passionate about Math. Seriously he is so into math so you'll actually learn from him. He was good at explaining and making you learn it. He grades you fairly and gave you homework but he would always make the class interesting with his little math stories. He's very passionate about math so you will totally get him. He's a great teacher.

Mr Y. uses the book, but will teach you MUCH easier methods in lectures. Patient, clear, and available for office hours if you need help. Math is my worst subject - he made it almost painless. Class notes made sense outside of class. Reasonable on attendance, but you'll miss out on shortcuts if you miss class. Great teacher one of the best at CRC!

Also forgot to mention, homework is collected once a week during summer which is good and BAD. If you are a slacker and procrasinate way too much, do not take this class, especially over the summer! Essentially, homework will determine your grade because it is the only way to "study." Either way, you can't go wrong with Mr. Yarbrough!

Professor Yarborough made math seem so simple and easy for me. I have a hard time understanding math, but he just makes it so easy to understand. The materials are easy to follow along and his lectures are hilarious. Pro. Yarborough is very understanding and helps you with the math prompts. Easy A, would recommend to those struggling in math

Professor Yarborough is an excellent math instructor! He really knows his stuff and really wants to see you succeed in the class. Math is something I really struggle with, so the class wasn't easy but the professor gave great practice tests before each exam and even provided an extra credit opportunity! I highly recommend taking Yarborough!

Yarborough is very kind, encouraging & patient. Having a leaving disability, I was used to math teachers being very unkind but soon after I started his class, I realized he had a different approach that made me feel comfortable. Definitely recommend!

I wish I could give more stars! If this tells you anything I flunked out of math the semester before I took Yarborough and ended his class with an A!!! He is clear on what he tests on and as long as you do homework and the practice tests there's no reason you can't get an A also!! This is coming from someone who has struggled all my life in math!!

By far the best professor at CRC! Took him previously for 120 and when I saw that he was going to teach business calculus I knew I had to take him. Would not recommend to skip class bc the problems in lectures are similar to the tests. He is approachable if you have any doubts and also had excellent tutors that assisted us if we needed extra help.

I had to drop this class, I need to work on my beginning algebra skills before I take this class again. His homework is not a lot and while online you only need to attend on the first day and test days. He is available outside his office hours as well. He responds back quickly and is very helpful. I would recommend this teacher for Math!!! Sondra L

I took this class last semester in person and he was such a chill professor, really understanding, helpful, and clear. He only assigns like 5 exams for the whole semester and gives a bit of homework but it's graded by completion not points.

Professor Yarborough is an awesome professor, nice and approachable. It's not an easy A but he walks you through everything so everyone can pass the class. Assignments and dates for exams are given first day. He gives you lecture material (no books). Practice exam prior exam day! Literally the exam. Do hw, go to class, study hall with him =lab.

Professor Yarborough is great at explaining concepts clearly. Doing the homework and practice tests is key to success. Also, Unstuck ai was super helpful for study prep. Overall, a manageable math course if you put in the work.

I took Professor Yarborough for STATS 300 and he was amazing. His class was very organized, as long as you do your homework and keep up with the material you will be able to pass the class. He offers practice tests before that actual tests, which help prepare you for the real test. He also offers a front and back page of a cheat sheet on the tests.

Yarborough makes math as fun and easy as it could possibly be. Never leaves anyone behind, any questions unanswered, and if he notices someone falling behind he makes it his mission to help them up. He loves nothing more than helping you succeed and talking about math. Insanely passionate about what he teaches, and funny too. One of the best profs!

I can sum up my experience with Professor Yarborough in one sentence: I hated math until I took his class. He is so funny and wants to ensure you understand the concepts and formulas for every problem you encounter. He has lectures that make the homework easy, and he gives a practice test before the actual test. I would gladly take another class.
