will go over things many different ways to make sure everyone gets it...it comes very easy to him so he teaches it very well, I would take him again, he's young, super nice and seems to like teaching which is a rare feature in a professor especially in math
No Comments
I failed the first time I took this class, but when I had him I got an A. He really loves to teach and it shows. Plus if you dont miss any classes and you have an A in the class you dont have to take the final. If you have problems in math pick him he is a great teacher.
Great professor. Very knowledgeable. I had him for Calc 2. Outgoing personality. Of all the math professors I've had he is at the top of the list. He takes the time necessary to explain material and will make himself available at his office if you need help. His tests are difficult but if you get an A on them you aren't required to take the final
He is the NICEST teacher! He is also funny! And CUTE!!! He made the class easy for everyone!
If you're a complete idiot when it comes to any type of Math, Professor B. is the one to take! He explains College Algebra in a way that is easy to understand. Very helpful and VERY easy on the eyes:)Homework is expected to be turned in each class period..odds only.. show up for every class and maintain an A.. = NO FINAL!
i recommend prof b, hes fun, helpful, & most importantly he teaches the material well
Prof.B makes learning this particular subject fun. As long as you show up and pay attention to the material you will do fine in this course. He is always willing to help anyone out that is just not getting it. His class is very structured you know exactley what you are going to do each and every day.
super awesome guy!!
Very highly recommended teacher. Fun personality and great knowledge of the material, very easy to understand . Gives review sheet for every test and exam. Explains all difficult problems from the homework.
Excellent instructor. Clear and concise in adhering to scheduling and instruction as defined in the syllabus. Hands down one of the most competent Professor at Edison. Turn in all homework, show up to every class = A and no final.
I enjoyed his class because he makes math really easy to understand through his teaching methods and I learned a lot

Excellent teacher. Makes concepts very easy to understand. Definately best prof to take for mathematics course. Very knowlegable and reflects in his teaching style.
I signed up for Algebra with Prof. B. after other students recommended him to me, describing him as "awesome". He has a very friendly manner and has an organized, very knowledgeable, positive and encouraging approach in teaching. I did the best that I have ever done in math in his class and I highly recommend him.
Really nice and funny. Tests are not easy but hes a great teacher and person!
he is ok! Not that esay! his tests are hard . He's very helpful however not that great! Rating 1-10 i give him a 7. He's ok!I had a lot of difficulties and he didn't help me a lot.
Great Teacher! Have had him and his wife and still havent had to take a final.
Best math teacher. Teaches the hard classes with clarity and enthusiasm and makes them understandable. He's made the hard classes fun. Have taken CALC II, III, & Diffy Q with Professor B. He is very helpful, good at explaining and makes himself available for help if you cant't make office hours.
He is the best prof at edison! Gives you every opportunity to get an A in the class, including extra credit on test for completing test review. Attendance counts towards your grade.
I think he's great!! He's very understandable and he inspired me to change my major to Math and possibly have a career in education!
It is the BEST Math prof. at Edison College. Before I had his class Math didn't make sense but thx to him I'm getting a minor in Math =D Highly recommend it specially if math is one of your weak points. I also found it very helpful to have a smart CUTE prof teaching such a hard subject lol.
Very good teacher would highly recommend him to anyone
professor B. is a great man. he is willing to help you with anything you need. cal 1 was a breeze cause he gives out 2 quizes a day and you have the chance to not have to take the exam. as long as you come to all the classes and have an A in the class you dont have to take it. i would recommend him to anybody. he is aslo a hottie.
He is an excellent teacher, fun, easy going, always seems happy and loves what he does!! If you take college algebra, take it with this guy he is awesome!!! Thanks Mr.B
Wonderful professor! VERY clear! Successfully taught Calc I 3 horus a wekk without being boring. Gives fair credit for partial correct work, small-group quiz every class. Overall, he made it the least work possible to learn Calc I, and after moving on, I realize that it wasn't because he made the content easier--what i mean is, I really LEARNED it!
He's so boring and explains everything too much. He obsessively runs his hands through his hair and thinks that he is the hottest man on Earth. He only talks to the hot girls that sit in the front row and ignores everyone else. Don't take him. But his wife is awesome, completely opposite!
Having to do our homework online really helped me out a lot. Also, he explains everything very well, is willing to help, and gives print outs of your grades after every test.
I was always good in math until I came to his class. He teaches way to many sections for one test. No multiple choice..he takes off points for baby mistakes.Whatever you learn Monday will on the test that Wednesday. HW does help..he is cool but I dont like the fact he gives us so much all at once. Take him if you can grasp a lot of math at once.
He is great! He explains everything clearly and moves at an even pace. He speaks to everyone, not just the "hot girls" in class. While it sucks to have constant quizzes, it was nearly impossible to fall behind in his class. If he sees you a semester or two later in the halls he stops and says hello, I cant say that for anyone else at Edison.
Great teacher, worth taking. Makes learning easy
Smart Guy! Thanks Prof. B!
I loved this math class. Prof. B was a GREAT teacher. If you pay attention, do your homework you will do good!
He is cool...kinda tough on test but he is a great teacher. If he was a little more lenient on test, he would be the best
Hard teacher, but i passed with a B+.He is very helpfull. Wish he was easier when he grades but i was so proud of myself after i finished becasue it was a challange. He was not bad to look at, and has very nice hair!!!:)
Professor B is awesome!!! If you are not sure who to take...take him. He explains things in a way you will understand. ALWAYS willing to help. Attendance and H.W is mandatory, but to do well in Trig. you need to do it anyways. Tests are 80%, 10% H.W 10% attendance... TAKE HIM!!!
Very clear in his teachings. Always available for extra help per office hours. Gives extra credit opportunities to boost your test scores..as long as you don't forget to turn them in..whoops. Oh yeah..and did I mention he was cute :)
Very easy class. Can get boring. Mandatory attendance if you wanna be exempt from the exam.
I can't believe I got an A! I could kiss him! But he's married...and I'm engaged..what the hell, I'd still kiss him..CUZ I GOT AN A!!!
He is hard but you learn oh, and if you dont like math this is not a summer class!!!
This guy can't explain at all you will learn nothing from this guy
Great Professor, totally fair and helpful. Worked with the kids that didn't catch on as quick...became a little redundant but I could see that being helpful in higher level math classes. He makes me want to continue in math for sure!
This was the best math class i have ever taken. I took 1033 3 times and barely passed. College algebra i took in a summer course and did extremely well. He made me want to take another math class with him and I HATE MATH! He is def. a great professor to take.
His class is easy. He explains everything clearly. But there is a lot of homework.
All objectives clearly defined. Excellent Prof!
The best math teacher i have had. his class is super easy if you go to all of his classes. he explains everything very well. i would highly recommend students to take him! .. i got an A in his class and i hate math! ...
I had Prof B for trig and he made learning the material super easy. Granted, trig is pretty easy anyway, but Prof B's explanations and examples made it crystal clear. Such a good teacher, I am taking him for calc 3.
He is a good teacher. He explains things good, I got a D because it was one of my first classes and I really didnt do a lot of studying. He offers a lot of help if you need it and if you study you are sure to get an A.
Great Teacger. Extremely Helpful. He does give a alot homeworK But makes math easy to understand .I advice taking his class .
Amazing teacher! He does his best to simplifiy the material and to make sure you learn it. He goes at a good pace and makes it easy. Take him!
Great!!! i def. advice anyone to take this class!!! He will make sure you understand all the material...a big homework giver but it only counts as 10%. His main thing is his tests but if you understand the homework you'll do fine on the test! :)
Great Teacher
Great teacher, I would recommened him for any math course. He's hot,which helps make math less boring!
He's the best professor I'll probably ever have. He was always helpful and always nice. Everyone should take him for calculus, I took him for calculus II and he's the kind of professor that KNOWS what he is doing. If you take him, you're sure to get a full understanding of the subject.
Great Professor! Easy to talk to and easy to listen to. He goes over anything that seems confusing to anybody. He breaks down complex ideas and make them simpler. I'm taking for as long as possible.
I don't know. He's kind of unforgiving if you don't make it to the Calc.3 exam. Even if you're not enrolled in the class...Just kidding. He's cool as hell and one of the very best teachers period! The new doo looks weird though.
Great teacher, the best math guy I have ever had! Made math so much more simpler and really takes the time to help you out. This is my only professor for math, won't take a class with out him!
He is a really great teacher. He makes the class a piece of cake.
Prof. B is a fun outgoing teacher who loves what he teaches. He does make you attend class but your reward is if you have perfect attendance and have a A in the class you get to skip the final. He's always available during office hours, and is very quick to reply to emails.You use the course compass website to do homework
Awesome teacher!! the best!! get him!!!
He did not want to explain the problems on the board! He said ask your fellow classmates and he is not getting paid to explain! UMMM HELLO!!! Yes you are! Uggh..yea whatever he is cute but he just throws the math to you as if you are an expert. He did not explain anything to us. Regret taking him..never again. I rather wait until the next semester.
I know this is a fun professor, but people confuse that with being a GOOD professor. He has a large ego which gets in the way of him being an EFFECTIVE teacher. I took him for calc 1 and dropped it, I felt like I never learned anything. I am now taking Ransford. Ransford gives GREAT test reviews, no ego, and really knows the subject.
I agree EGO!!!!!!!!! He doesnt take his time to explain everything. He does NOT go over step by step..his test..difficult. I dropped his..and I NEVER dropped a class before..I took Cheryl Black (devil in science) and I stuck with her...so that should tell u. If you are a pretty blonde take him..he smiles at you and might let u sliiidddee.
professor Berthiaume is a good professor, it took me a while to get used him because he's very tough on you but makes you learn! He's good at explaining things and goes at a somewhat steady pace. Be prepared to focus and study you're butt off!!!
BEST TEACHER EVER!! VERY helpful!! I hate math and he made everything very easy to understand and actually made it fun! Participate in class and do the homework online and you will get an A in his class
Suchhhhhhhh a good teacher! The way he teaches is completely comprehensable!
Hands down best math teacher at Edison. Personally, he was the best teacher I have ever had. Makes everything simple and easy to understand. Extremely helpful, interacts with class. I hadn't had a math class in over 6 years, I took Prof. B for MAC 1105 and MAC 2311 and got an A in both classes. 10/10. Take this guy's classes, it is worth it.
Best professor for calc at edison college !!!! very nice professor !!
Great teacher, but not easy. His test are tough but fair. He is more than willing to help out his students. Go to class and do the homework and you should be okay.
He was a great teacher. Taught at a good pace s0 students could understand. Test were ok. But he does give alot of homework which is due every other day which makes it hard to keep up..take 20% if late. And his reviews are very long like 50 questions or more with things that is not on test so makes it hard to concentrate on whats important.
He is soooo hott! omq most attractive teacher everr! makes everything so easy because he explains things step by step so well. I love him and reccommend him to everyone!
BEST teacher I've EVER had in any subject. Explains the subject matter in a way that makes it extremely easy to understand. Moves though the lessons at a really good pace. BONUS: Very hot!! Double bonus: If you have perfect attendance and an A on every test, you are exempt from taking the final.
Great Professor! Class is FUN! Summer class moves VERY Fast so stay on top of your work if you plan on taking his class. Lots of Homework, and reviews, but he pretty much gives you your A at the beginning of the semester, you just have to keep it. PLUS If you keep a A average and come to every class, you don't have to take the FINAL!!
Great Professor: He explains everything really well, and he will take the time if you need more explaining. If you maintain an A and do not miss any classes you can be exempt from final, which is a great bonus. I would highly recommend him.
Best Math teacher!!! He gives lots of examples to make sure you understand what your doing in class, hes makes class time fun,the work load is average as far as homework and test, and he has office hours if you need more help.I am not good in math at all in yet, I got an B in the class,he knows what hes doing and he loves math lol
GREAT PROFFESOR!! Has a real passion for math and a great attitude in class! I recommend him even if maths not your best subject, because he explains everything clearly and give tons of examples. 4 Exams and my math lab hw. If you get an A average with few absences you are exempt from final :)
best math teacher at Edison. Personally, he was the best math teacher I have ever had. Makes everything simple and easy to understand. Extremely helpful, interacts with class. I hadn't had a math class in over 9 years. It was like learning everything new but he made it easy.
Such a great teacher! He is the first math teacher Ive had that has actually explained math in a way I can understand. Math is a very difficult subject for me but professor b really helped me excell in the subject!
THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Super awesome and helpful! Homework can be tough, and so can the tests, but he's more than willing to help. He has a tendency to tease, but he means no harm by it. Best of all, he makes everything super easy to understand!
Amazing, simply amazing. The patience the Professor has is limitless...and trust me, our class certainly took a toll on him.Study hard,do the homework, get help, attend the study sessions...it's all worth it, regardless what professor you have! Prof. B. will be sorely missed, as he and his wife are moving to Brazil to teach after the next semester.
Prof B is an excellent instructor. He gives you all the tools to help you succeed. I am sorry he is going to Brazil!! Edison is losing a GREAT Professor
I had this professor my freshman year for trig in 2007.i went to every class, did all the homework, maintained an A in his class and was exempt from his final, moved away to SD and came back to take his calculus class. to my divestation i lost my job and could not attend his class and i was disappointed because him and his wife are the best!
THE best math prof. i have ever had! his way of teaching is legit. perfect attendance, and an A in the class exempts you from the final. Tests are difficult if you dont study but he makes sure you understand. Trig can be hard for some but he made this class super easy..sadly hes going to Brazil. He will be missed
Prof. B. is THE BEST teacher I've ever had. Ever! If I could have taken him for every math course, I would have. He's passionate and thorough and genuinely makes you love what he teaches. Even though I didn't have him through my higher level math classes, I went back to him and he was more than helpful when I needed. BEST TEACHER EVER.
I am going to miss Professor B. I had him for 3 different classes and he is everything a teacher should be.
Professor B is one of the BEST Math teachers EVER! He and his wife will be greatly missed at Edison. I took a few math classes with him and also his wife, and let me tell you, They are SO Passionate about math! They want everyone to feel good and confident about math. He helped me a TON during Trig. I wish him and his wife the best! We'll miss you!
BEST TEACHER EVER!!! I hate math but he made math fun and easy to understand. Because of him I love math! <3
BEST math teacher EVER. I absolutely HATE math and have a terrible time with it. He was so helpful and patient and really took an interest in his students success. Best teacher ever. If you get a chance to take his class, do not hesitate!
HE IS MY FAVORITE PROFESSOR. Hands down! & that is extremely hard to say about a math professor! He is laid back, cute, funny, and an all around very precise math teacher ! He wont stop for anything,if theres something you don't understand,e breaks down every step. I will be taking him again for pre-calc & trig at PBSC !! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
This is what a college professor who loves what he does should be! Very clear, very patient, moves quickly with lessons but has clearly figured out the best ways to get you to learn. Keep up with homework and test reviews. It's a lot of work but he is awesome and wants you to do well.
Best math teacher I've ever had,very helpful and an amazing teacher. I will be taking trig and precalc next semester with him. Very easy to learn math with him as your teacher!
Prof. B is an amazing math teacher, clearly explains the material, uses clear, easy to remember examples and is very professional. He knows his material and definitely seems passionate about the subject. Very patient and helpful to those who does not get the material right away. Will definitely take him again should the opportunity presents itself.
if you want to understand math take him . i took him for more than two classes. amazing prof. highly recommend him
If you want to learn about calculus, take him. He is really helpful and explains topics well. Be prepared to work hard. I took him for 3 separate math classes.
