This is for MATH 1342 Statistics. Really good professor and is always willing to help if you just ask or go to his tutor sessions. There are a bunch of online assignments for this course, but as long as you stay on track and be consistent with your work you'll be fine. Overall, a good course and I highly recommend taking.

This review is for MATH-1342-Statistics. Professor Borroto's strengths come from his ability to work with his students and help them understand the lessons. There are a lot of homework assignments but they aren't to difficult. Only problem is it can be hard to understand him sometimes, and he over explains simple things. (Recommend his tutoring)

He gives lots of opportunities for extra credit and isn't strict with homework due dates, he assigns the homework and it's up to you to be responsible and turn it in before the final exam.

Professor Borroto is probably the best math teacher I've had at Lonestar. He genuinely wants his students to succeed, and will stop to help anyone that is struggling during class. The material was never difficult to understand, he posts extra learning content on D2L and offers tutorials outside of class. There's plenty of extra credit, great proff.
