He did't have a "weird" sense of humor, he just actually HAD one, which is odd for a math teacher. Entertaining man. As far as teaching goes: He took every concept back to the basics to make them perfectly clear, was very easy to understand, EXPLAINED everything, and he clearly knew the subject very well. Very helpful, great teacher.

I have to admit that he is a good teacher. He explained the materials clearly, and always available to help students in & out of the classroom. However, the grading is very stingy.

One thing that makes the final exam harder than homework and quizzes is that the problems are mixed up and you arent told the chapter or topic for each problem. To ensure that all students passing Math 107 can demonstrate minimum competency, if you do not score at least 50% on the final exam, your maximum course grade will be 1.4 (D+).

Don't take his class, at least for your calculus. He really requires you to work hard; homework has application-based problems, quizzes require not just your understanding on one particular concept but your overall math skills as well. Midterm exams are easier than quizzes, though. Lectures ok, but sometimes it can be boring and out-of-topic.

Steve is a great teacher and a fun person. He usually assigns a larger amount of homework, but with Calculus there never too many examples and situations to cover. If you take his classes, you will be working a lot but you will learn a lot and will prepare you better for the following classes. Ask him about what he thinks of the moon landing ;)

Really good at teaching and wants to help his students. Definitely a hard class, but he knows he's a hard grader so he lowers his grading scale to make it easier to get a better grade.

Took his class last year but I could not hold it. One day I brought him a problem (because he did not explain it clearly in class) and he ended up telling me to read and figure out the entire chapter MYSELF!! I don't see the logic as he was supposed to be THE teacher. Bad as a teacher and worse as a person. I am sure every other professor is better

Don't do it. Miss a single class and you lose too many points. Extremely hard grader. Belittle's you in office hours. He knows his subject but has no idea how to actually teach it. If you look at every positive review here, each one has 19+ thumbs down. Take someone else you wont regret it.

I loved this class. If you're self-motivated and willing to put in the effort, you'll do well. So much reading/videos/practice! Well-paced and he actually participates in discussions. Fast grader, always responded to emails/posts promptly. Makes you learn/figure it out for yourself. Encourages deeper understanding. So sad I cannot take him again!

He shows up as a caring person at first. Dont be blind after that, you need to be careful with this one. Took his online class, got accused for cheating while doing the Quiz that answer only type & in Written HW which he never teach us how to do it so its normal to find some help in order to do it. End up having a 0.0 score. Worse teacher ever.

I was hesitant to take his class due to his score here, but I'm so glad I did. I get really bad math anxiety, and this was the first time I had ever been able to feel confident and succeed at math. You can tell he truly wants every student to succeed, and as long you communicate with him, he will try his best to help you make it through his class.

One thing I want to let you know, if you are taking online, is that there is no video lecture created by the instructor except the welcome msg. He shares lots of youtube links tho. Lots of reading, videos, but there is no constructive instructions that tie things together. And it was confusing and hard to catch up. This class will not motivate you.

This course has a heavy course load that's not engaging outside of the routine discussions, which have an extensive amount of work given to the student. He has a habit of assigning additional work to students in discussion posts depending on his mood it seems like. This class wasn't as difficult as I thought, but it was tedious and annoying.

No lecture for Steve's online class, the only way to study is by reading the textbook and watch some videos provided. Textbook is free. Easy 4.0 if you do the weekly discussion, homework, and quiz. No exam for finals, you only need to do a project.

Took Bogart for Math 107 and so far the class has been super easy. Bogart assigns quizzes once a week, discussions and WAMAP but they are all pretty simple. If you struggle in the WAMAP homework then just watch the video it provides you, for discussions he will give you amazing feedback and gives you a day to fix it. Amazing professor!

Steve Bogart is a sweet and caring teacher, I took the course online and he gave me good feedback, he also dropped some of our lowest grades because he knew that the students were stressed before the exams started. There is a moderate amount of homework but as long you get it done, you are good. He also helps you whenever you need it. 9/10 teacher

He was caring and understanding. He made lecture videos and it make it easy to follow. He adjusted grading scale based on class performance or changed the amount of assignments. It allows you to do well if you do all homework which is all you need to practice and learn. The exam is 2 and very similar to homework. Do well on homework, discussion.

Prof. Steve was a fantastic teacher. His communication was excellent throughout the class. I was scared of taking a math class for the first time in a while, but he does an amazing job of making students feel comfortable with the math. ALWAYS reach out if you need help, he explains concepts easily and has great communication timing.
