AMAZING teacher! Knows his stuff and is very helpful. Always there to help you. This prof is a MUST! You'll enjoy the class and learn a lot!

Great professor. Goes at a good pace and makes sure all the students understand or have any questions. Makes things very clear.

Amazing teacher, easy to understand, explains everything multiple times until they are stuck in your head, and has a great review session before every test. Wish i had him for all my math classes.

very clear, easygoing, easy teacher!!

BEST TEACHER EVER. seriously take him if u have the chance you won't regret it. Got an A in his class and its because he explained everything so clearly and made it easy to understand. TAKE HIM!

Best professor at qc. U wont regret taking his class. Crystal clear lectures and review before exams.

He's a good teacher. Would go over any questions you have, gives homework but doesn't check it.

Very clear, easy, and helpful professor. Need to be in class to learn the math, but does not collect the homework. Tests are exactly like his review the class before and are not hard.

Really cool dude. Makes calculus very easy and straight foward for you. Has good review session the class before. Hw assigned every class but not collected. Exams are similar to the review.

Okay. Seriously I'm REALLY bad at math. But after taking Professor Goldman I just found it SOOOOOO easy. He's so clear and teaches amazingly. Only if all the professors were like him! He gives 3 exams, no homework and he doesn't collect them or grade them. Please take him if you have a hard time in math, he'll make things so much easier!

Great professor! He made me fall in love with math!

Great prof. No question is too stupid and he is very kind/patient. 2 in class tests in total + a final. You will never be surprised on the test. Homeworks aren't graded/turned in. Definitely take him. Lecture can get a bit dull but that's about it. Everything else is great. If you show up to class and pay attention, do your HW, you get an A 100%.

Not just an excellent professor, but excellent teacher. Goes concepts multiple times, review heavy before exams, and answers questions politely and effectively. A very nice person who made calculus very easy. Try and get a seat in one of his classes.

Professor Goldman is one of the best Math Professors Queens College has to offer. He's highly capable to teach higher level math courses. Also he's very caring for his students and will stop and explain the topic over again if you don't understand it. His test are based off the reviews he does in class, also I say it's important to do the hw.

One of the best.

Very good professor!!! Caring, funny, polite, and very chill. He tries his best to make harder concepts be as digestable as possible.

Great math professor. If you don't understand something he will politely explain it in another way. Administers homework every class but is used for practice and not graded. Any questions about homework are gone over in the beginning of class. Three midterms and one cumulative final, which was a little tricky, but overall everything was fair.

Fabulous professor! For comp sci math, some topics are complicated. It's a different type of math but Goldman breaks down every topic into little pieces and makes it easy for students to understand. You can ask him any questions you have on any topic and homework and he will explain in depth. 2 tests and a final. Study ALL notes. Recommend 100%.

One of the best professors at Queens College would love to take him again for a tougher course

Clear, smart, and fast paced. Pay attention, carefully, and there won't be any problems. Tests are in blue books, like 5-10 questions. Always willing to go over anything you need explained... I mean it. No question is too stupid. And there have been many, many stupid questions this semester... but he handles them like a champ!

Professor Goldman is brilliant. I've never had a math professor that was able to explain complex topics so clearly and thoroughly. He is undoubtedly the best option for MATH 120 at Queens College, and I highly recommend taking him.

Let me start by saying that I do NOT understand math. Prof Goldman explained the material so that I was able to grasp it and pass, thankfully. Would definitely take him again, if possible. 3 exams (20%) each, online HW (10%) and cumulative departmental final exam (30%) - which actually had multiple choice questions, making it much easier.

Prof. Goldman clearly and thoroughly explains the concepts taught in class. He makes the sometimes difficult concepts easy to understand. He teaches exactly what is taught in the textbook, but in a much more comprehensible fashion. Tests are very straight forward, if you know the material you will do great. He is a very lenient grader.

Great math teacher. Explains why he's doing what he's doing for each problem, so you really grasp the concepts instead of just memorizing rules. Pay attention in class and do the homework and you'll get an A. Note- he doesn't answer emails even though he tells you to email him with questions, so be sure to ask him in class.

He's honestly one of the best professors I've had a pleasure of having so far in Queens College. Sometimes I wonder what he is doing here even. The way he taught Math 120 cemented my foundation on the things I needed to know. He is a patient, concise and funny professor. I wish he taught more upper-level Computer Science courses.

Professor Goldman is the gold standard. The way he teaches is so clear thus transitioning from in person to online during covid was no issue. Genuine guy answers all questions no attitude simply put just a great professor. Need more like him in QC

Enjoyed his class. He's clear and concise with what we're supposed to know for the exams. He tends to cover a lot of material per lecture so make sure to show up to class. He also was one of the few professors that made a smooth transition to online classes during the whole COVID19 crisis. I highly recommend taking him.

Amazing lecturer and guy. But I felt that he procrastinated hard when grading things. Didnt get second exam grade after the final exam. overall, hes fair on exams and I wish he taught higher level math courses.

I had him for Math 120 and he's a great professor. He does take a very long time to grade exams though. He also takes long to reply to students emails. Other than that he's the best professor you can take for 120.

Spring 2020 - Was in person then transferred to online learning due to COVID. Good professor for discrete math. Tests are manageable if you take the time to study and constantly practice to understand the material. Easy 100 on the essay assignment.

He is a gem in disguise. He was added last minute, but e is so good at lecturing. He knows what to do, and how to help students. Study the textbook, because it will help you get a hang when youre test taking. His reviews are good but make sure to practice. He breaks everything down 20% each on his syllabi. Truly worth taking.

An amazing professor at the math department at QC. Discrete math is a hard field of mathematics but he explains it well and his tests are straightforward though challenging at times. There is a writing assignment which tremendously boosts your grade. He does take a long time to grade and post test results but overall a great choice for MATH120.

Professor Goldman is hands-down the best math professor I've ever had, his grading criteria is clear, he explains topics in a very clear and concise manner, and he is extremely kind. If you have the chance to take Professor Goldman, please take it!

He is really a respected professor in QC. His lecture is clear, explains everything clearly. I took his summer classes. His tests are really easy (you can find everything in his lecture). 3 tests and 1 written assignment (2 pages). Written assignment is 20% of this course. But he took lots of time to grade tests. Final isn't cumulative.

This guy is an absolute gem! Discrete Math is hard depending on how you approach it but Prof. Goldman made it clear as day with his explanations. Lectures are clear and recorded so they are accessible anytime. Grade consists of 4 things: 3 straightforward exams and class participation. Do yourself a favor and take Goldman, itll be worth.

One of the best teachers I've had period. Very kind and caring guy that will answer any questions you have. He gives lots of homework problems but his tests are based heavily off of them so try to do most of them. The class isn't super easy but it's not hard either. GO TO HIS REVIEWS BEFORE HIS EXAMS.

Best professor for 120! Very understanding and does a great job explaining course content. Brings up Cyberchase sometimes and he makes class enjoyable.

By far one of the best professors I've had, His lectures are easy to understand since he explains theses concepts in great detail and would stop to explain what students did not understand. I would 100 percent take this professor again.

My favorite professor. Super nice and reasonable, he just wants you to do well. Makes sure everybody understands before moving onto the next topic. Explains each topic well and thorough with definitions and repetition. Homework is optional, only assigns it for your own review. Tests are reasonable, not extremely difficult.

Super clear, takes a lot of time explaining examples, tests are straight forward and he is a very light grader. As long as he sees that you know what you're talking about, he gives almost full credit even if the answer is wrong. Straight up the goat!

He'll answer questions if you have any, but bc of the flipped learning you watch vids at home and then come to class with questions (in theory), so he doesn't teach but when he answers questions they just make sense. HW and quizzes tend to be a lot at some point, but content overall is not too bad. two tests, final, hw, class preps, and quizzes

Honestly the course MATERIAL is pretty difficult and tricky but if you put in the effort you'll realize his quizzes and midterms are way easier than the webwork and other professors who teach the subject. Make sure you ace everything because the final will be more difficult than everything else you've seen. Otherwise, amazing guy 5/5.

the best math teacher I've had in my entire life. my last calculus teacher made it seem like rocket science but this guy made it seem as easy as 2+2. plus he made his exams similar to the stuff we do in class which makes his class even easier

Professor Goldman is an amazing guy and a very good teacher. He will never belittle you or make you feel bad for not understanding a concept, no matter how simple. Classes like 120 are inherently tricky, I also had Goldman for 141, where I also was able to understand much better. Just take notes and study for exams.

The ratings don't lie, vulture for enrolling into his class if you can, trust me, it's worth it

He's one of the best professors at Queen's college, the ratings don't lie. Math 120 was much easier because he taught it. The curriculum may have changed, but he still takes his time and thoroughly goes over everything. Always is there to help and answer your question, take him! The goat for a reason. Participate in class, do your work, and study.

This guy is super solid and is a great lecturer. He will make it easy for you to understand the material. If you don't understand, he can go over it with you before or after class or during office hours. He is also very lenient test grader. Only real issue is he seems to grade late and he doesn't always respond to emails.

AMAZING PROFESSOR! If you ever get a chance to take this prof. don't miss it! He is really good at teaching the material and always makes sure the students are following and understand the concept. The quizzes are a easy pass if you're following the content taught in class and he gives a review sheet before the midterms which is very helpful.

He gives very straight-forward and easy to follow lectures, and then he tests you on the material that he taught (which seems to be a novel concept in this math department). He genuinely wants the students to learn. I took 141 and 143 with him and I'm so glad I did!

THIS GUY IS THE BEST TO EVER DO IT. HE MIGHT NOT RESPOND TO YOUR EMAILS THO. THE VIDEOS TALK NONSENSE BUT HE SPEAKS THE TRUTH!

His lectures are the best. When it comes to math I get distracted alot and cant focus but his lectures are literally sooo easy to understand. He explains the most complicated topics in such a simple way. Take him!!

I had Professor Goldman for Math 132 and I took Math 131 a couple of years before this class so I thought I might be pretty lost but I was wrong. His lecture were very helpful and the test were very doable. He gives a generous amount of partial credits and has a review session before every test which I found to be very useful.

He is very good at teaching Math.

Excellent math instructor! His teaching is concise and straightforward. Attending his lectures and completing homework will prepare you for his exams. His grading system is very fair. The topics in the class are not overly complex, but practice is needed as with learning anything. Highly recommend the class with this professor.

Professor Goldman is very easygoing and gives great lectures. There are three exams for the class, and homework isn't mandatory. He reviews challenging problems during class, and provides review sessions to answer questions to prepare for exams.

This class is flipped learning so you watch videos at home. He explains the hw if you don't understand and he grades exams generously. I'd take him again

Exceptional teacher and one of the best math professors at QC. They're very good at explaining abstract topics, and making things understandable to all. The required videos for the class can be a bit confusing but he will precisely explain everything to a tee, and will never make students feel bad for asking questions during class.

The GOAT. Unmatched teaching style. Simple, yet effective.

he's Him. 3 exams, drops the lowest. Gives review sheets prior to the exam, basically the exam. Go to lectures and do the HW's and you'll be cooking. If only he was allowed to teach linear . . . :(

he's really good. take math 120 with this professor and you won't regret it

he's the best professor for math120 at qc. shares notes and practices problems in class to help you understand videos

The course was really easy. Just attend his review class because the exam questions are exactly the same as those covered in class. His lectures were very helpful, and he makes an effort to explain all the concepts. However, he doesn't curve, so you'll get exactly what you put in.

This guy's great!!! Highly recommend taking his class if you need to take 120!

This guys awesome! Take his class!

Good Professor

Im really confused as to why this professor has such low ratings. He is such an amazing math professor and I he wants to always help. He takes time and makes sure we understand everything. His review sheets are the same as the exam just mixes the questions a little. I would take this professor over and over again because ik I would pass his classs!
