Huerta gives a ton of homework but the tests and quizzes are significantly more difficult than what he shows over his lectures. He grades very hard when it comes to tests/quizzes.

Professor Huerta is awesome. We had 4 exams + the final and quizzes every week on the material he goes over. I didn't think the quizzes and tests were more difficult than the homework like some said, however he does want you to learn concepts rather than memorize how to solve problems. He was honestly the best math prof I've ever had.

He is a horrible teacher, doesn't even deserve to be called a professor. He gives quizzes every Thursday, and he doesn't even give us our homework or quiz back from before so we can review it before another quiz. His lectures are just him reading off questions and answers, he never explains with his own words. DO NOT take his class. Save yourself.

Quizzes each week. 4 tests and a final. The homework & quizzes prepare you for the tests. Lecture examples are too simple, however the content is great. If you have a class tutor, attend the sessions and you will get an A. He has no sympathy for those who do not put in effort. Make sure your algebra is good, if not you will struggle, same for trig.

Huerta is a good but straight-forward teacher, he covers content of his class very well. Take good legible notes, don't slack off as you follow his lectures and you'll be fine, but I've never put in more time into a class than his calc class. His homework and study guides help 100% and going over the SG with the tutor will help even more.

Professor was good at explaining the material as well as teaching us how to use our graphing calculators. He allows you to bring notecards he provides into the exams which I greatly appreciated.

If you want to spend your entire weekend doing homework you don't understand of studying for tests you're not prepared for, take Huerta. He is not a clear lecturer, his homework hardly relates to what was in the notes, his exams are highly definition heavy. I am great at math and stuggled heavily with this class. Beware!

Definitely not the best professor out there, especially if you struggle in math. Exams are nothing like the online homework or quizzes and he does not provide any review work before exams other than the final cumulative one. He's a super tough grader. Be sure to study a LOT before the exams because any little thing will result in points off.

His exams were nothing like the homework or lectures. He does not curve grades or exams. He gives too much homework that, again, does not relate to the exams. He is rude and condesending during his lectures. I hated this class every day I was there.

I am not good at math, so taking a stats class was pretty difficult for me. Despite this, professor Huerta was a very clear lecturer and was easy to understand. Once I got the hang of things I started doing better in the class, and I could tell that he appreciated participation and engagement in his class.

Professor Huerta was a great professor! If you are someone who is comfortable asking questions when you are having math troubles then he's very comprehensive to your needs! He puts in a lot of effort to get you to understand. I appreciate the way he teaches. Overall a kind, caring professor.

Pretty easy and straightforward if you do the HW. The tests are mostly simple with 1 hard question for exam 2 and 3 but realistically anyone should get at least a B if you do all the HW. Grades tests thoroughly so it helps you learn your mistakes and only takes half a point for minor mistakes.

I will NEVER take this professor again nor recc him. He has handouts every lecture along w/ a video but he doesn't teach he just reads his handout it's horrible. For this online winter ‘25 class you will have no life because he gives A LOT of hw that's SO time consuming. Whole class was drowning in the work. He offered extensions but doesn't help!

Great teacher if you want a good understanding of calc to carry over to calc 2, but it will be a lot of work. Homework is turned in weekly (written out on paper). Weekly quizzes help you study for the exams, and the exams help you with the final. No study guides besides exams and quizzes.He will emphasize notation. good dude too imo

If you have no life, take his class. It makes you think, what is the point of life and drives you to suicide. Every week: 4 assignments, 4 quizzes, 200+ questions, plus related ones hitting 500. Exams every 2 weeks. Absolute overload. Starting any assignment makes me wish I were dead. Avoid this sadist at all costs.
