Sultan's calculus class has been my favorite so far at ASU. I was never a math person before, but he made the material very easy to grasp and now I have even tutored other students in Calc I. I believe that Sultan didn't just teach me calc, he also taught me how to learn math. Attend class and pay attention at lectures and you will do well.

Took this class over the Summer with Sultan and like the previous rater said really simple to understand with his lecturing style. Although be careful with yourselves because this might invite some arrogance from yourself. I was arrogant and didn't study enough and forgot what the simple derivative of e^x which is just e^x and that hurt alot.

Exams altogether make up 80% of your grade. Webworks, quizzes, practice exams, and written hw are each worth 5%. Workload is a real pain. For a course that is generally easy, this class made it unnecessarily difficult. Deceived by the 5 star reviews. Requires the sketchy Honorlock extension. Do yourself a favor and avoid this prof's online class.

While he seems like a nice guy, this course is completely unfair for the amount of homework and quizzes we get compared to how much help we truly have. Lectures are unhelpful a lot of the times, the quizzes are insanely hard for no reason, with no apparent curves. The 5 out of 5 rating definitely seems to be a scam so far for MAT243.

You have to use ALEKS for both HWs and exams. Exams are proctored and timed.

This professor is the nicest man ever! He taught really well and made sure the class understood. I thought all the topics were fairly easy, but you must do well on the 3 exams to get a good grade. They are worth a lot and cover a lot of content. The exams were easy if you studied all the problems in the notes.

This professor is very strict, only cares about plagiarizing while using Honorlock, than actually helping his students. You will fail the course if you don't pass the exams w/ a C or higher. Exams are heavily weighed. Prof doesn't allow ANY extra credit but believes you can pass the class by communicating his high hopes and well wishes to you.

I enjoyed this class, even though I hate math! My biggest complaint is how heavily the exams are weighted, and that may be out of his control. The professor responds to questions quickly. His expectations are outlined THOROUGHLY in the syllabus. The class moves very fast and it's easy to fall behind if you don't work on it daily.

Makes it nearly impossible to pass this class since the exams are worth 60% of your grade. I don't understand how his other math classes are allowed extra credit and dropped exams but Calc 1 isn't? If you take this class be prepared to self teach.

Professor Al-Suleiman is the sweetest professor I've ever had. He genuinely cares about his students, and he makes sure that we understand everything. The workload is pretty light, and there's usually only 2 assignments per week. He's an amazing professor, and throughly enjoyed his teaching style.

He is great and is always willing to help! I'm quite sure that anyone who has anything bad to say about him put in zero effort. If you come to class and do the assignments, you'll be fine. Great professor!

First time rating a professor, and all I can say is take his class if you want to pass calculus!!! His notes are amazing, homework matches the quizzes, and he takes his time to explain everything clearly. Super helpful and really cares if students understand the material. If you have the option, take his class you won't regret it!

Dr. Suleiman was a great and fun professor. He was very sweet and highly knowledgeable. Attendance isnt taken but notes are rarely posted and you will learn much better in person. He also does pop quizzes and will warn you in advance during class. Overall great professor, definitely recommend!

Amazing Professor, His syllabus and instructions are very clear, he posts daily reminders about HW assignments to ensure his students are on track and send them to your email. He works fairly with all student, and is always there for his students when they need help or clarifications. I would definitely take him again and I highly recommend him!

I have never had an online course as difficult as this one. Calculus is tough but this prof made it harder. with daily assignments and lectures that did not line up with assignments. There are endless equations to be memorized as he does not allow any notes or a calculator on exams which may be my biggest pet peeve.

I LOATHE math of any sort but this was the best math course I've ever taken. Professor provides concise and clear instructions in his lecture videos. Deadlines are strict, but assignments are not immensely time-consuming. He takes the time to look at individual exam results and adjust grades accordingly. 10/10 would recommend.

I feel like this professor may be different in person. However, his online teaching style is rigorous. You will have to watch a bunch of lecture videos, not by him a completely different person. You have to memorize equations/rules etc. There is 5 assignments due per week monday-friday. Tests are weighted 60% there's only 3.

I had such a good time taking this class. Al-Suleiman has a decently heavy accent, but his teaching style is amazing and very clear. He goes through the same type of teaching every class. He presents a new idea, and then goes over examples multiple times, going through each step through detail. He also waits for questions. Amazing professor.

Please, please, please take his class if you want to learn calculus. I failed calc the first time I took it and he genuinely explains things so clearly. He will ask after every example problem if you have a question and will explain it 10 times over again. He is so caring and doesn't give a final exam. Very honest about grading and tests.

Al Suleiman is my GOAT. He has a slight accent during his lectures that's made up for by how thorough he is. You can tell he wants everyone to succeed. If you're taking his class, NEVER miss a lecture and be sure to study very hard because bc its extremely difficult to go back up (only graded by 3 exams). Thank you and happy holidays Prof. Al Sulei

Professor Suleiman was a decent professor. The class was considered mandatory since he had pop quizzes on either class day, so you really never knew unless you went to class. His lectures were just notes, and then homework, which was given after. His notes were sometimes very confusing, and I barely used them. Nice guy, not the best teacher.

He is amazing and teaches so well. He makes Calculus so clear and makes sure we all understand it. There's no attendance but he gives a quiz randomly once a week. It's very easy and sometimes could be just one question from what we learned. He drops the lowest 3 either way. Overall, very kind and was the reason I finally understood math.
