It had been almost 20 years since I had last taken math. My grades were the top of the class the whole semester. Mr. Jackson made it very easy to understand the advanced algebra he presented.
I took three different Math classes with him and he was really good. He is interested in the subject and wants the student to learn. You need to do the work and you should be able to get a good grade. He is young and somewhat hot.
Not any help at all.

He's ok.
I find Mr. Jackson to be friendly and open to questions. My only complaint would have to be the homework, it's online, and the site seems to have a lot of issues.
He was clear but had a lot of issues with grades and I never knew where I was at in the class. I missed a B by like less than half a point and he did not want to give me any extra credit.
this guy is a joke. i do not understand anythung he says. he looses track of what he was teaching. if your a first time stats student i do not recomend this class.
WAS AN AWFUL TEACHER. DID NOT TAKE HIS TIME WITH THE STUDENTS. HATED HIS CLASS BECAUSE HE WOULD CONTINUE AND NOT HELP YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT HE WAS TEACHING.
I hated him. My advice is run away and never look back.
he was a great teacher....I enjoyed his class very much!! I would recomend it to anyone!! I will b looking for him in future math classes!!
He teaches the way he was taught in college. He doesn't use the same method that's online
WOW! Mr. Jackson is Dreamy. He is an amazing teacher and has a smile that would melt you. He is always around for extra help. He expects you to work hard and learn! But hey, isn't that his job??? I've never met a math teacher who would bust out German $ and explain how Guasse was important for discovering how to add all numbers between 1-100.
Mr. Jackson is very helpful, easy to understand, he has a goofy sence of humor, overall i really enjoy the class and if i need any other math classes i will be checking to see if he is teaching them. I read some of the other comments on here and although everyone has the right to their own opinion some are down right rude, and one should make sure
continue.....their hands are clean before pointing the finger at anyone else.
I have Mr. Jackson for STATS. I am horrible in math, how I got into Stats is beyond me. Mr Jackson is very clear and you can tell he loves math and his students. I read comments on here that made me mad. Students need to step up to the plate and do their part. If you think college is supposed to be easy, u r an idiot. Go mr. J!
Mr Jackson is great. We caught him singing in class and he has a fun personality. Not to mention he is super cute and always smiling. He has perfect teeth and some sweet clothes. I think he is a fun teacher and if you do your work and try, he's actually way nice. He takes college serious and is an excellent professor.
Im sorry but horrible teacher... the Students were teaching him.
Based on some of the reviews here I was expecting a horrible experience but surprisingly, this class was great. Mr Jackson is actually very reasonable and understanding. Granted, I had Math 10A with him, which is far easier than stats, but stats will be hard with anyone. Just know that Mr J is a good teacher, helpful, and really likes what he does.
Took Mr. Jackson for math 101. Great instructor! He had some great short cuts that I'd never learned before! He was very clear and worked out everything step by step. I would recommend him for anyone having difficulty in Math! Uses course compass for homework and exams.
By far the best math teacher I've had in my life.
Mr. Jackson is a Great, fun professor who is nice. His work is pretty easy as it pertains to the chapters and he moves at a good pace. One great plus about him is he let's you use note cards for tests.
Great teacher overall! very easy to understand and takes his time teaching as well. I enjoyed his class and passed it with an A. The work is easy in the beginning but becomes a bit hard as it continues. What helps you is the note card he lets you use for the tests.
easy class
He's your typical math teacher! (that's a good thing) he gets excited over math jokes, he makes statistics easy to learn (as long as you're paying attention of course), and he's always there to help when needed! I'm surprised he didn't have a chili pepper before! An attractive person likes math? He deserves a red chili pepper.
Amazing teacher. He is not the easy A type! If you are willing to work hard you will succeed! He's very helpful. Very dedicated and will do almost anything to help you understand the subject. Great teacher.
I took Jackson for Math 1A and he wasn extremely confusing. He confuses himself a lot and makes alot of mistakes. Most of the time students were correcting him and helping him with his lectures. I often left class early because I was learning a lot better watching online lecture videos on YouTube by KhanAcademy. Plus his test are 65% of our grade.
Horrible teacher, the class taught him, I passes because I taught myself. When taking other math classes I will be sure to avoid him as a teacher.
Chill and laid back but his teaching sucked.Our class was teaching him.He expects us to find out the awnser yet we haven't learned it yet!He was never sure of his awnsers when he was showing us example problems.
He gives study guides identical to the test. and your mid term is easy but the final is difficult! Theirs homework everyday and you have to review your notes because to much info to learn in class. You get to use a notecard to write formulas. Your tested at least once a month if not twice! And your tests are half online and on paper.
Mr. Jacksons a good guy he will work with you if you can't make it to class to take a test. He is also always in his office hours to help you. But HEs A HORRIBLE TEACHER He goes to fast everybody's lost but he offers study guides that are identical to the tests except with different numbers. Their long annoying homework and tests! Take Evans online
This class is tough at the beginning but if you ask questions about the stuff you don't understand he will take the time to explain it so you do. I had a great time in this class, something I have NEVER said of a math class.!
Math was always my worst subject in high school so I was definitely nervous to take stats, but when I took it with Jackson I excelled. He is a phenomenal teacher! Not an easy A class, but if you pay full attention in class, take advantage of the practice tests and the index cards you can use for the tests, you will do just fine!
Mr. Jackson made this class easier to take. Math is my worse subject and I originally went to West Hills Coalinga but the teachers were horrible. So I decided to go to Lemoore. Teachers are way better! Jackson did a good job at explaining everything well. Made everything do-able. You did have to pay attention in class.
Do all the homework and be sure to use the text book, the lectures will confuse you so the book is a necessity.
When I asked for help I wasn't given much help. I asked for tutoring help outside of class and they thought the work was difficult. He went to the very last minute of lecture, PURE LECTURE, all night. Everyone around me was struggling as well and had the same problems as I did. I have to re-take and wait another semester to be able to transfer
I took calculus with another teacher and it was horrible. So I was a bit nervous about Jackson but to my surprise I enjoyed the class. He is approachable and is always willing to help. Lecture can be a bit confusing sometimes so use your book and go to his office hours. The class is passable as long as you study and use the study guides he gives.
If you have to take calc take Jackson. The class is doable just study hard and go to his office hours. He is willing to help and answer any questions you have. The tests are 10-14 questions long and he gives a study guide for each test. There are roughly 4-6 tests & 1-4 quizzes This class is going to require a lot of time but he is a good teacher.
The only class in my entire life I have almost failed and i consider myself to be good at math. Terrible class setup. Doesn't look at your tests, just checks if your online submission was correct. If it is not 100% correct or you miss one character it is wrong. Worst class experience I have ever had. You can tell by how many people drop his class.
He is a good professor. He says what he wants and gives a normal amount of homework for a math course. He goes over how to do a problem 1-2 times and thats it. He seems like a super stressed person and makes the class feel stressed as well. However I would retake his class again if I had the chance to.
took me 3 tries to get out of stats with Mr. Jackson but he hung in there with me. tests are in clusters of 3 chapters no extra credit and literal grades by the book what you earn is what you get. he's not hard stats is hard! come to class and take notes and ask him if you need clarification.
He is SO nice and willing to help with any questions you may have. If you don't understand something he is willing to sit with you and go over it until you understand. He is really funny and makes class enjoyable. Take his class if you have the chance.
I don't know how I feel about Mr. Jackson. He can make this class very hectic at times, he tends to assign much more work then he can grade which causes him to become stressed. He takes about an hour to go over one problem and he grades homework and tests very slow. But he is a very helpful and sweet teacher and is willing to help you if needed.
Mr. Jackson is a really nice guy that is willing to help students. He is also lenient. Stats is such a challenging subject within itself, he does his best to teach it in a way that is understandable for students. If you're taking this class definitely put in the work and time and you'll be fine. Visit his office hours!
I took this class a few semesters ago so my review will be incomplete, but I do remember that the criteria was very clear on what I needed to get an A. He did offer tutoring sessions during his admin hours and I definitely needed them; I found some of the material hard, practice hw/practice problems/guides and utilize tutoring to get an A.
Funny guy, he is lecture heavy and is willing to help out if asked. Study well and you will pass this class.
I've had a few math instructors at West Hills, Mr. Jackson is by far the best. He knows his stuff and promotes correcting him, asking questions, and just genuinely learning the subject. No MyMathLab BS, saves a ton of money. Posts all his in-class notes. Not that hard of a course and I suck at math, just study a little and remember specific rules.
NEVER. AGAIN. Jackson is very, very disorganized and forgets what he is teaching. He would always forget how to do something and spend more than half of the class time looking through the textbook to try and teach himself how to do a math problem so he could "teach" us. I do not recommend. Cool guy, but not cut out for pre-calc/calc.
Sure, there were issues with disorganization, lecture pacing, and appearing stretched too thin at times.... However, Jackson is a considerate and charming professor who provides many resources(handcrafted notes/homework, Office hours, SI sessions) for student success. Show you care about your education and he will try his best to help you 3000.
Mr. Jackson is an amazing person and yes he does get off-topic a lot but that's not the problem. He gives a whole lot of homework. The tests are also hard and worth so much. After not doing too well on the first test, my grade dropped. I thought I could raise it up but I couldn't and I ended up dropping the class. I think he's just good at stats.
I came in with the expectation that this is a 5 unit 'intensive' prep course for calculus. Yeah, people dropped early on and even long after the census date, but Jackson did fine as a college instructor. He was always willing to help me during his Monday office hours too Like he said at the beginning: success requires 3 things "work, work, & work"
I'm not a good math student and going into this class I thought I was going to fail or drop early. But nah, Jackson can be a little fast paced but he kind of dumbs it down and explains things step by step. Stats is a lot of steps so you just have to not skip steps to a problem. He is really helpful and makes it possible for you to past the test!
I recommend taking Jackson for Stats. Class relies on lecture so be there. He puts all class notes online (no mymath or textbook). Although homework can be hectic, he goes over a few ?s & usually extends due dates. Does study guides and allows a notecard for test. At the end, drops 1 test & 2 homeworks & last week of homework is extra credit. ����
He made Stats easy , really engaged with his students , notes were helpful and he has youtube videos that helped me pass my exams. Especially nowadays everything is virtual. Overall , great professor !
Watch the videos and write down lecture problems! This helps when doing homework and exams. Do all your assignments because at the end of the course he gives extra credit for each assignment completed. Responds quickly to emails and offers tutoring. Not a fan of math, but got an A by doing all the above. He makes Statistics so easy to understand.
Coming from someone who is not good at math, this class was HARD. Plus, having it online probably made it even harder. He never set up official class hours to teach so you were supposed to email/get on zoom when you had a question. But I had questions about literally everything. I ended up withdrawing and will not be taking him again
Professor Jackson made understanding the material easier. He takes the time to explain every step. He also makes sure students have all the support available to them to be successful. Very good instructor that cares about his students. If you have difficulty with math I recommend professor Jackson.
He really makes stats seem not so daunting. He has youtube videos for every homework problem and gives you enough time to complete your homework. Has many outlets to reach him and gives your numerous tutor tools and support for questions. Watch every video and write down your homework problems! This will help you the most. No mandator zoom meetings
As a full time mom and a wife taking this class made me anxious, but after taking his class he made me feel 100% confident with passing. He is by far the most amazing teacher i have. He is passionate about his job and he makes learning easy. He answered all my questions and his videos on YouTube make it easier! Hes the dad of a friend group type
As someone who hates and sucks at math, this class was fairly easy. The lecture videos were amazing and completely relevant. Multiple attempts on quizzes, and 2 attempts on the midterm and final. Also, the practice test is very helpful just print those out and take the test, and you are golden!
If you struggle in math like me. Mr Jackson makes learning statistics so easy & effortlessly. He is an amazing instructor whom is always willing to clarify any misunderstandings or confusing problems. He offers YouTube videos that explain the math problems, he answers emails on a timely manner, also give out extra credit points.Take notes as well
Took him online for the summer and was one of the easiest math classes I have ever taken. For it to be online it was easy & simple. He explains his work very well, provided videos & will not hesitate to help. Passed his class with an easy A, & would take him again if needed. Definitely recommend taking him.
If you have to take stats, I would 1000% percent recommend Professor Jackson. If you struggle with math or think the class with be hard, take it in person not online. I passed with flying colors, I have my boyfriend taking him right now for the same class. He also thinks that he's helpful and make sure everyone understands.
The best part about taking this class was the amount of support he gave! I've been out of college for 10 years and managed an A. There's plenty assignments so you don't need to be perfect to do well. Just try hard and log on to the tutoring zooms.
The best math teacher I've had in may entire life! He actually made me enjoy math class! He is so helpful, will sit and teach as much as possible until you understand. He's caring and seems like he loves his job, we all love those teachers. He tries really hard to help everyone, and is super understandable. Take his class if you want to pass!
AMAZING, AMAZING, AMAZING. Extremely helpful, clear lectures, very helpful and funny. I would 1000% recommend taking any stats class with Mr. Jackson to anyone specially those who weren't any good at math. I hate math but Mr. Jackson's class was sooo easy. Obviously you would need to pay attention but it's not difficult to do so. EASYYYYYYYY A :D
Amazing Teacher!!!!! Mr. Jackson always has a youtube playlist for each section of the homework, he replies to emails quickly, offers extra credit, and always offers extra help. If you are terrible at math please take him because he is amazing at explaining what is going on. I passed with an A which was surprising but he made stats extremely easy.
He is a great professor and is very clear on what he expects. The video lectures that he has on the homework are very straightforward and easy to understand. I would highly recommend Shawn Jackson to anyone taking statistics.
Took him online for the summer and it was a fairly easy class. Lecture videos are very detailed and easy to follow along with. Not a ton of hw, We didn't have quizzes, just the final which was not cumulative, you'll know what chapters to review. Practice exam was extremely helpful. Gives extra credit. Very straight forward, highly recommend him!
My fav professor ever!! He is extremely helpful, has clear lectures, very helpful and funny. I would highly recommend taking any stats class with Mr. Jackson to anyone specially those who weren't any good at math.
Great class! Great professor! Took this class online and was very nervous to as I am in person learner but the class and professor himself were awesome. Would take again if I had had to take a math course. Very helpful instructions and videos that go along with the homework. Would recommend this professor to others.
Took this class in the summer, it was my first online class. The course was well planned out, there were videos for every question for the homework and a relative easy final. Really easy class for being online, as long you do your homework on time you should have no issues with the material. The professor is always willing to help when you need it.
If you struggle with math at all, I do not recommend this class. While being charismatic, he often goes on tangents not related to class which leads to confusion and less lecture time. If you want to pass you will have to teach yourself, otherwise you will know next to nothing. He relies on zoom meetings instead of class time to answer questions.
Jackson is a great instructor who helped us understand and explains every math problem. There is also an SI in the classroom for students who need extra help. He gives students the option to attend his class through Zoom. Hilarious and entertaining and you won't have a boring day in class. Take his class if you struggle with math.
Great teacher. He provides his own calculator that will literally help you succeed in his class. Do all the assignments and get at least 80% or higher on them including the midterm and final and you won't have to worry about anything. Attendance is either via zoom or in person.
He gave me zeros on assignments that were fully complete, he was inaccessible most of the time. I enjoyed the course materials, was not happy with gradings
Cool experience! There is various materials to learn from, awesome depending on your learning style. His lectures demonstrates how to derive to your answers by hand, but also provides statistical calculators that making your life super easy. Bonus extremely approachable and down to earth as well provides resources for tutoring online/in person.
Professor Jackson offered zoom meetings every Monday and Thursday to help with homework. He actually takes time to
Professor Jackson is an incredible teacher! He's very helpful and genuinely cares. His online lectures especially the ones on YouTube are clear and engaging. He made difficult topics understandable. Even though the work was challenging at times he gives plenty of opportunities to grasp the assignments and succeed. Highly recommend.
I took Jackson over the summer. The class could have been boring but Jackson made it fun. Lots of examples and easy to understand with his videos. Plus he's super helpful and gets back right away unlike some professors
I really like Professor Jackson! His videos every assignments was very helpful and you'll definitely learn a lot from this course! Highly recommend it!
Professor Jackson was amazing! I have never liked math, but Professor Jackson makes all his lectures fun and interesting. He is super understanding and will work with you if you need extra help. I will highly recommend this professor. Colleges need more professors like him.
Mr. Jackson is truly for students success and stands by what he teaches. I never thought I would pass stats because I am horrible at math. He made it so easy to understand. Everyone needs to take his class. It is impossible to fail. He shows up for his students 1000% and will go above and beyond to make sure you have all the tools to pass!
Great professor who's online lecture was always straight to the point and would show step by step on how to complete your homework. He would also set aside zoom meetings where you can ask for extra help if needed.
If you need a stats class take his! I hate math and he made taking it online simple. The homework is easier compared to other stats classes.
Perfect professor for those who don't really like math or struggle with it. His detailed lectures are both engaging and informative. As long as you take the time to watch them, you should be able to pass with flying colors. He also holds live Zoom sessions for questions and tutoring, which is a great bonus. He's pretty funny as well!
i hate math, i was never good at it. i thought i wouldn't understand anything of stats when i took mr jackson class, he made stats fun! his lectures have helped me alot and he would host online sessions for questions which was really helpful. he is such a kind professor who cares about his students. i would definitely take his class again.
I enjoyed this class. I am personally not the best student when it comes to math but his lectures and assignments were clear and easy to follow. He has his own calculator that makes it easier for students to use the proper materials when it comes to specific sections that we are learning. I would definitely recommend this class.
Amazing lectures, he's very helpful and helps you if you don't understand the problem. Overall i highly recommend taking his class.
Great teacher, has a lot of resources for you to use and wants to make sure everyone passes. Homework is not hard and has very little questions. Final was only 5 questions and you could attempt 2 times, really just wants the best for his students.
He give a ton of homework but if you pay attention and you take notes you will be fine he is very clear with what to do and shows you the exact steps on how to do what he is looking for.
Professor Jackson was an excellent instructor. His online video lectures were clear, well-organized, and easy to understand. He truly cares about his students' success, and it shows in the way he teaches. I highly recommend his class.
This professor was amazing! I fell behind a little bit when things were getting to be to hard and he helped me with some extra credit to pick me back up!
