He was a god teacher and made us understand the importance of understanding. i enjoyed his class and he was funny as well i belive he is one of the best math teacher i have had

Explains thoroughly and clearly and has a great attitude. He emphasizes the importance of the reasoning behind formulas and rules.

great teacher! doesnt care if you get the wrong answer as long as the work is pretty much correct he will give you credit. takes time to explain things throughly

He is the best Math Teacher I ever had. I never saw math in a good way until I took his class. He actually took out some of his time to help understand problems that I had difficulties in...and I rate him the best teacher I ever had. :)

Best math teacher ever. I dropped math 45 twice before this class. tons of opportunities to increase your grade. grades on effort and not the right or wrong answer. perfect for someone who is horrible at math.

Great teacher, probably the best math teacher that i have had in years. Can go slow sometimes but he explains things exremly well! Currently still taking it, give an average or 10 quizes but useas only top 8 of them. I highly recommend him.

Professor Quan's class was pretty easy, it's true his accent and style of teaching (sorta Socratic-like) can be confusing for students that want everything to be done for them. However, he was very direct and helped me develop an intuition for mathematics that has served me well.

personally, i thought he was a good teacher and he really tried to help, but he talked WAYYYYYY to much . i thought it was easy, but then again, i discovered after that i didnt even need to take the class, it was to low a level .

I took his class durig the summer e goes faster than the rest of the teachers.He's helpful and attendance is a must.He is very repetitive and talks way too much which I hated.Tests are very different and harder from the practice tests, in the tests he includes stuff that he didnt cover in class.

got a B in the class. hardly studied, it's best if you remember everything from back in high school. Its like a review. Easy. Had an A, but ended up with a B because I lagged on the final.

great teacher...gives many quizes and only grades your best five... class work is worth like 50% of the grade easy points...gives a lot of homework but its real easy

For Math45 and 60, he uses an online textbook and homework is done through MathXL, an internet learning tool, making an easy and accessible class. If you bother showing up to class and complete all the classwork and homework, you will do well. He is an extremely good teacher and knows much about Math and how to teach it effectively. I recommend him

Great techer for teachers!! I enjoy going to class and learning from someone who has actually been there!

He taught Math 112 in spring of 2011, wonderful teacher who is passionate about teaching & how he interacts with children. He has a harsh Asian accent. He gives you these handouts & you have to buy this video book ($25), you'll use it a lot. But it's helpful. He doesnt like taking attendance, but he has to. Participation is required.

he's a great teacher!:)

Mr. Quan is one of the best math teachers I've ever had. He actually makes you think about the concept rather than just showing you how each problem is done. He is extremely helpful, patient, and encouraging. He also gives you credit for trying even if you got the answer wrong.

Professor Quan is one of the best math teachers. He not only teaches you the math, but he also teaches you why things are done certain ways. He believes in the quality of work and not quantity. So he'll take more time to explain questions that the class doesn't understand. He's pretty funny and you can tell that he loves math. Which is important.

This was my first math class in ten years, so I was very nervous. Professor Quan does have lengthy explanations on math problems but I found them helpful. He doesn't use a book only Math XL. There is a lot of homework in his class but stay on top of it and you'll pass. He also drops your lowest test score.

Professor Quan is a great instructor. The material is more difficult than it may seem, but he expertly explains concepts from a variety of perspectives. Pay close attention and you should have no trouble getting an A. As this class is for teachers, he also gives valuable insight regarding what to expect in the education profession. Take him!!

I I took Math 60 with him my first year. He really was a great instructor and he always had a positive attitude which is a plus because he wants everyone to understand the material. Ignore the low scores or negative comments about him because he does care and he does take the time to help you.

One of the few best math teachers. His style of teaching allows students to understand the material thoroughly rather than memorization, which is very important in math. I'm an engineering major, so math comes natural. However, I know when a professor can teach. And Mr. Quan is outstanding. I highly recommend him. I just wish he taught calculus.

He truly cares about the students and wants you to learn the material. I don't just want answers, I want to know how to get the answer and he takes the time to explain the lesson. He offers tutoring before class. He's a great professor. Math can be challenging and this shouldn't be confused when rating the professor. Study and take notes!

I was a student of Professor Quan's in math 110 and 111. My opinion he is the best teacher I've had including my time at SDSU. He is more than fair and really the epitome of what a college professor should be in my opinion. His examples are second to none, I constantly find myself reminded of his advice on how to solve and approach problems.

Quan is an amazing professor. He is passionate about teaching students the right way to do math, and the correct way to teach it. This class is designed to prepare elementary school teachers, so he's very analytical and specific but he goes in depth so nothing is a surprise. He has a lot of homework and if you're a minute late, he marks you tardy.

I think he is a great professor! Learned more from him than another math teacher in my life (I'm not young). He follows the rules. Has high expectations, but willing to help. The class is not "easy". If you are having a hard time and reach out he will help you.

If you really want to learn the material and become successful for future calculus classes, Professor Quan is recommended. Meet him halfway & he will do the same, you will be on his good side if you show that you are determined to learn.

Honestly I had to enroll in this class because it was the only time slot available in my schedule and on the first day I read his reviews so I wanted to transfer into someone elses class but I couldnt so I stuck it out. He actually teaches good. Willing to help whenever and tests are worksheet based. Lookover worksheets and practice before tests.

Math 110 was the best and most challenging math class I have ever taken and that's including all the math classes I have taken in my undergrad. Professor Quan is a very good teacher, it's the subject matter that is hard to wrap your head around. If you want to be a good teacher, take this class. The knowledge you will learn here is invaluable!!!!

I was scared to take his class because of all the horrible feedback on this site but hes a great professor. Looks out for his students, always. He's not cocky, hes excited to show you how stats connects to the real world. Attendance does matter, must be on time that's his thing. Just take his class and get to know his style, you'll be okay. 10/10

I'm not sure why Professor Quan has received bad reviews because he is an amazing teacher! He really cares about you and does everything possible for you to understand the material. I honestly hate math but Professor Quan made me appreciate it and would guide me through the questions I had. 100% would recommend

It breaks my heart to see bad reviews about him. He is honestly one of the best teachers I've had. He takes the time to explain everything. He's funny and caring. Statistics class was not easy but he made sure to explain everything and make himself accessible if anyone was struggling. 10/10

Hes a wonderful teacher. Zero complaints. I took math 119 with him and hes great! Not sure why he has bad reviews but 10/10 recommend. Wonderful guy and class.

I took him this semester for MATH-115 this fall semester. Professor Quan is genuinely a great professor and he cares. Do not hesitate to ask questions because hes more than willing to go into depth. Hes also very understanding with turning in assignments! He provides the lectures online if you cant attend as well. I highly recommend.

dont skip class, you will get lost. its a hard class but he explains very well. he cares a lot!

Professor Quan is an approachable professor who really cares about your education. Even though there was a lot of lectures from him, he allows you to ask questions without feeling scared to ask them. There is a time in class where he only takes questions which is very helpful since he will guide you through step by step on how to find an answer.

When i first read reviews about this professor, I was beyond worried since I suck at math and I just wanted to try and get through without failing. But after I took 2 courses with him, I question whether or not I was being instructed by the same mean and lazy professor I read in reviews. He was very patient with me, despite me sucking at math.

Amazing professor, be ready to put 100% of your attention in class or else you will get loose, answered all questions, he did leave homework but with plenty of previous time to do it, tutoring was offered, he gave many extra credit activities, the exams were easy and they were similar to the worksheets so answer them completely

I got a D because I did not put in the work. He is really knowledgeable; he knows what he is talking about. Leaves weekly quiz and homework assignments on MyOpenMath. Extra credit assignments and extra credit questions on exams, how much extra credit you get depends on how detailed you are. Easy A for sure if you work and do all the quizzes and hw.

Professor Quan is excellent; take his class!

Personally I believe professor Quan did a great job teaching this course, he really breaks down the work in lectures. As well as provides a digital textbook. I will say it is easy to fall behind if you do not put in the effort. He also gives opportunities for extra credit various times. If I could take him for all my math classes I would.

Amazing Professor. He knows how to explain things very well and makes sure you understand. I would take him again if I could.

He is a good teacher and cares about his students learning. His tests are difficult but if you know what you are doing and put in the effort then it's manageable. I got a C because I was working 12 hours a day and I am a head of household. There are many extra credits that I think is enough to boost a whole grade level.

Nongraded worksheets every class that closely resemble exam material. Appreciates effort above all, lots of extra credit opportunities are available. Graded hw through myopenmath. Regular attendance is crucial due to the fast pace of the class & the teacher encourages participation and questions. Dislikes lateness. Amazing and funny teacher.

Probably one of the best math teachers I've had so far. His explanations make the chapters simple. As long as you stay consistent with the homework and quizzes given through Canvas, as well as attentively listening and going to his class, you will pass. Although he isn't accessible outside of class, there are videos of lesson reviews on Canvas.

took his online class during the summer. various opportunities for extra credit. A LOT of homework, quizzes every week and tests every other week. always willing to help, and is very sweet. class was stressful tbh. he provides videos where he works on math problems using the calculator which are really useful

One of my favorite professors I've ever had! He made me genuinely interested in statistics.

Math is no easy topic, yes it will be long and heavy, but he's very passionate. He will help you and there's a class tutor available IN class. Comes off as strict but is honestly a sweetheart. Skip class and it'll be hard to keep up, don't be afraid to get extra tutor help out of class. Ana really helps :)
