This instructor is not for someone who struggles with math! He relies too heavily on the tutoring center and other class members. This can be very distracting and misleading information. For those who enjoy a hip instructor and lots of socializing, I recommend this class, other wise it would be better if you found another instructor.

Be aware of his teaching style. A lot of the times we had new concepts shown to us in the homework, then the next class we would go over it together. So if you're not understanding the homework, that's okay because 9/10 times we're going over it as a class. Also, if math doesn't come easy to you, you will struggle in this class.

Nice guy and never puts you down for trying even when you're wrong. But when you try to ask a question he responds with "Hm I don't know". Lot's of homework but it is not graded but you are not going to pass unless you do it. I felt like my questions never got answered. I felt lost the majority of the time. I wouldn't recommend him to a friend.

Very helpful and nice teacher, genuinely always very helpful when you need it, and often lets you redo things for half credit if you were close to the right answer, and overall a great teacher. I really don't like math, but I'd 100% have him as a professor again

Okay, instructor. Do your homework weekly, it's not graded however if not completed you won't get credit. Our class consisted of four exams, the final, and homework. He has excellent videos uploads for help. However, I did ask for help one week and was instructed to watch videos instead of receiving help from him.

I would definitely advise doing all the assignments and keeping clear notes on any topics that are difficult for you. The professor doesn't have much communication with you directly unless you reach out, but his teaching method is clear and understandable.

No matter what you do theres just a ton of work in math, HW isnt graded but you NEED to do it if you want to get through this. Remote class but Seth makes himself available and is a great teacher. I wish this class was in person but rewatching his videos and practicing along helps! Do-overs on many missed questions really helped me alot. He is kind

Fully online course. Homework 3x a week with specific due dates, test every friday that is proctored. If you make mistakes, you can fix them after grading to earn partial credit. Check your results because there isnt a way to really show your work on how you arrived to the answer so you're graded only on your answer to the questions.

He takes asynchronous very seriously. He grades homework based on if you did it as opposed to accuracy -so you really have to motivate yourself to do the work. If you are someone that needs your teacher to regulate you, this probably isn't a good class for you. Do the homework. If you slack off, then you will probably get confused later.

This professor is very average. You better be decent at math prior to taking this course, or you'll be lost. He grades you more on if you did the homework work rather than on accuracy. I don't agree with this method of homework grading. I didn't have too much difficulty, but a majority of the other students did.

Very nice guy and wants his students to succeed but not the best at explaining or teaching. He will provide videos on how to do equations but a lot of the time you are feeling like you have to figure out stuff on your own. If math is not your strong suit it's going to be a tough class.

Pretty easy to under, very understanding and gives you the opportunity to redo problems for partial credit. The assignments are graded on how much you try, not how much you get right. So if you just try you will do fine

I would recommend taking math classes from Seth to anyone. He is incredibly understanding and accommodating. This class had set due dates, but as long as you communicate with him he works with you. It was all online, with prerecorded lectures and you can do the class at your own pace.

Love Seth. Seth does a great job of teaching math, he knows his stuff & I'm never confused in his class. If you're stuck, he'll try to help. My advice, just be on top of everything. Seth assigns a lot of HW. If you get behind, it's hard to catch up.

He was a good teacher. If you do every assignment you will get a C- at least. Homework is due 8am Monday, Wednesday, Friday. The only reason I would not take again is because I work full time so it was hard to keep up with that with my work schedule. Otherwise, he is a nice guy. He gives good feedback. He does use lockdown browser for exams.

Decent class. It's easy to fall behind and get overwhelmed by the amount of homework when you miss class. However, there are tons of online videos explaining the lesson and Seth usually does a recap of the lesson and homework in class. He's nitpicky about the small details on an exam, but it's an easy pass if you pay attention in class.

Seth's class was one of the most homework intensive classes I have had since chemistry. The weight of your grade is also really test heavy- so even if you do all of your homework, you can easily flunk the class because of quiz or test scores (no retakes & all tests are taken with an internet blocker & webcam.)

His lectures were great, he would go over the homework first and answer questions. The Quizzes were ok but he would take points off for little tiny things despite getting the correct answer. He allowed one index card to use for the midterms and final.

Keep in mind, he is a tough grader, and doesn't let much work be redone, especially on tests. This is a pretty test heavy class, but the homework does does correspond. HW due M/W/F, and a quiz on Fridays, so expect some HW over the weekend. Other than that, he was available if I needed extra help, responds relatively quick, and explained well.

He is a pretty relaxed, chill teacher. Caring and attentive to the students (he notices students efforts and hard work), very responsive. Independent study - Students have to study the materials on their own mostly. You have to do all your homework (helps grade pull) and prepare well for exams - since he doesn't allow retakes. Quiet a tough grader

Don't let the lower quartile of his rating get to you, math is naturally more thought-intensive and requires constant practice. I'm honestly terrible at math, but Seth was super supportive and is really flexible with homework! Although, grade is FOR SURE dependent on your quizzes/tests. Other than having it at 8am, class was great
