I don't see why everyone has such a problem with him. I like his teaching style and you learn quite a bit from it. Take the class from him if you actually want to learn and not fall behind for the next Calc class. He's helpful and accomodating after class also..

Farm wasn't that bad...VERY easy to talk to...yes test were hard, but speak up! if you say something he will try and fix it...he fixed 2 tests we had because we expressed concern...he really does want to work with you...

Best math teacher I've ever had. He's really helpful and accomodating. Hes also really easy to talk to, dont hesitate to go talk to him about problems on a test. If you go to class regularly, take notes and DO the homework, there is absolutly no reason you shouldnt get an A.

Best math teacher I've ever had! Definitely taking one of his classes again.

He is very helpful if you don't understand the topic. Sometimes the tests can be tricky but if you go in for his office hours he is more than happy to explain the concepts for you.

I thought Mr. Farm was an excellent PreCalculus instructor. One of the best math teachers I've had. He does a great job at explaining the concepts and providing examples on the blackboard. Also, I thought he was mildly entertaining and has a friendly demeanor, which never hurts.

Dorky at times but a good teacher

This guy lectures well but he is so soft spoken that it is imperative to sit right in front to hear him properly. The online homework took me a long time since I was new to Calculus, but it is the best way to learn the material. At one point he provided evidence to support Noah's flood and Earth's age which was a misuse of his position.

He is a very nice guy. Alot of people do not like him because of his grading but if you go in for help he will help you! Also the online homework is very easy and will help. He is a very nice man!

Very Helpful and Easy to get help from. Tests are kind of hard but he gives you review sheets. Overall good teacher

Mr farm is a really nice guy but he is a very hard teacher. He takes the majority of class time showing you how to get a FORMULA. then there is only a short time to learn how to use the actual formula. I got A's on all my maths tests in highschool, out of four this year i got one B and the rest are lower then that. good luckk.

Extremely difficult class, but a requirement. That being said, even with all the bad reviews Farm knows what he's doing. His classes are difficult to follow and I wouldnt have passed with just attendance. He was available whenever I needed to ask him questions, and once responded to an email of mine at 4:30am. Dont know if I would pass without him

He might not be the clearest lecturer in the world but he is the absolute BEST one-on-one teacher I had in my four years at UND. He's so encouraging and genuinely wants his students to do well. If you're not willing to spend time on the homework & go to his office hours then you probably won't get a good grade, but that's your own fault.

The class is difficult, so you will not pass by just attending class and expecting to absorb the information. If you don't put in effort outside of class then you are preparing to fail. Stuart is sometimes hard to follow, but he offers many opportunities to seek help, and he cares about his students. Even though he is goofy, he's a really good guy.

This guy is genuinely there for his students and is willing to help. I ended the class with 101% in the class, so getting an A isn't an impossible feat.. I suggest doing the all assignments, the study guides, and getting Calc. for dummies, which was a HUGE help for me. DON'T GET THE TEXTBOOK, I NEVER USED IT. PRACTICALLY WORTHLESS.

Mr. Farm was always willing to help, he just requires you put in the work. I was never a fan of math until I took his class. You can ask him fifty questions and he will do his best to answer you. Depending on the class he does lots of assignments or little quizes. I would highly recommend him. Attendance is not required but helps a lot!

He tries his best to make sure everyone gets the help they need. He tries to make lecture fun. He gives a lot of homework but will extend deadline to the amount of time you need to get done. He is a good guy.

Mr. Farm knows math and he wants you to learn. Don't expect him to just give you the answers. He will answer any and every question and clarify anything you need. Attend class, do the assignments and you'll do fine. Gives 2 tests (10 questions each) and final (15 questions). Super nice, nerdy guy who's motto is "Math on!"

Mr. Farm is a good teacher, but is not quite clear on the types of questions we need to go over. The homework and in-class assignments are a lot tougher than the actual exams.

Kind of weird, makes corny jokes all the time but one of the better math professors I've had. He's passionate about the subject and it shows. He spends extra time making sure that his students understand the reasons behind why you do certain steps and, for me, it was helpful in my understanding. Recommended.

Kinda quirky but he's a good guy that cares. Show up everyday for free points. Quizzes almost every week (turned into group quizzes by the end of the semester). Test very similar to quizzes. Homework almost every day and it is much harder than what you will see on the quizzes/test though if you ask for extensions you'll get it every time. Math On!

Mr. Farm is the nicest man you will ever meet. His concepts are easy to figure out. As long as you pay attention and show up, you will be fine.

Farm has homework almost nightly, but it nothing that wasn't able to be done quickly for the most part. His final test accounted for the most percentage of the points in the class so studying is mandatory if you want to pass this class.

Took this class for interest, also was the first math course in College. It was very hard to start with, extensive and new HW every class(Webassign), Prepare to do them, with solid understanding. attendence are vital. Test are very based on in class assignments and lecture examples.

He will answer all the questions you have. And he is willing to give his students a second chance to take passed due hw. Random in class quizzes is easy!

Mr. Farm is the best math teacher I have ever had. He is super funny and very passionate about what he does. There is a quiz almost every day in class, but it is not the end of the world if you miss one.

Mr. Farm is one of the nicest people you will meet. WebAssign assignments get handed out every day after class to practice problems and a quiz usually appears every day at class. Do a lot of practice questions for the 3 midterm tests. For the final he makes you understand the concepts instead of memorizing problems. Put the work in, get an A.

The course is difficult, but doable. Mr. Farm will help you, but the key to this course is to use math learning center. He is a professor that wants to see you pass so he tries to help as much as possible.

He's not bad. He lectures, and then gives quizzes. If you don't know how to do the quizzes you can ask him so you shouldn't not ace every one you take.

Honestly I think Stu gets a bad rap. Yeah, he has some hardcore dad-joking abilities but other than that, if you do the homework and actually put the time in, this class is gonna be fine. He explains everything clearly and makes it easy to meet his expectations. I was a little intimidated by calculus but I got a 99 with Stu's help.

I took this class during the summer, where he was understanding enough to let me get an extension on every single assignment, as long as I asked for one. He is very understanding and also willing to help you with math problems you're struggling with. He is a bit weird, but he is passionate about what he is doing.

He is really good about helping you outside of class and his review session before the final was helpful. However, his tests can be hard, unless most of the class does poorly, which he then makes a new, easier one for everyone to take. The class can be a lot of work, but if you try, he will help you.

seriously best dude I know. His class isn't that hard if you put in the effort. but honestly when you get to know him, he's the most down to earth dude you'll every meet. he actually cares more about you than the class and is always willing to help. also has the best t-shirt that says "keep calm and math on". HIGHLY recommend.

Show up to class, be prepared for dad jokes, and don't be afraid to go in for help during his office hours. Stuart takes some getting used to, but he's a great guy if you're willing to put in a little effort. Homework is time-consuming but easy to figure out. Tests are worth 90 points but graded out of 80, and they're fairly easy. Love this guy.

Stuart is an awesome guy. I've never had a professor that cares more about the students. Some material can be difficult, but he is more than happy to help with anything. Overall I was very pleased, he made this class actually enjoyable to go to.

I love Stu because he is a really chill guy. He wants you to succeed and is fun in class. The only downside for me is that he tends to over explain answers which would confuse me. He is super lenient on giving out extensions and always answers his email. Pretty good at making a math class enjoyable and entertaining.

Stuart gets a bad rap, but he is so beyond willing to help if you ask for it. There's a fair amount of homework, and you're graded on in-class work, but there's no better way to learn math. There are 90 possible points on the tests, but they're only worth 80, so an A is feasible. Needing to show up to earn points doesn't make this a hard class.

Despite the reviews I read about Mr. Farm I believe he truly loves math and although not everyone in the room loves his humor. He genuinely wants you to succeed in his class. He always says his availability and will stick around after class to be available to his students.

It is super important to go to his lectures because he talks through things well and there is tons of in class work. I struggled a lot in this class and should have failed but he told me because I went into his office hours so much to get help that he could see I was trying and bumped me to a C. He's so chill and the nicest guy ever

I took his Algebra class last semester and I am now taking his Applied Calculus. Algebra was only one hour a week and I didn't get much from him because it was mostly a self taught class. Calculus I now have 3 hours a week and his lectures just confuse me. I find myself finding outside resources for help because the class itself if hard regardless.
