I took his online class and I was able to pass with an A. He gives time to do the homework assignments which is great, and there are a few tests including a final and a midterm which is proctored. It's hard if you don't study but since it's fully online you have to learn for yourself. If you need help in math then take an in-person or remote class

I was on the edge of my seat every time the grade populated. I am not good at math so I guess that didn't help. The plus I see with taking this class with this professor is you can go at your own pace. No EC!

Hands down the best professor I've taken. Apparently I had ended the class with a bad grade and I never noticed, and it turned out that there was no record of the final exam I've taken. He did everything he could to help me out, even went out of the way to give me a make-up exam even after classes ended. Not every professor do this!

If you are not good at math, this teacher is perfect for you! He will stop what he is doing to make sure you understand everything. All homework is due at a later date (on Pearson) and all his reviews are EXACTLY the same as the exam. Exams are not proctored either. Make sure to participate, he loves it.
