Super hard teacher. Take him as a last resort. He is so boring too...

he is not helpfull. and more than half the class is failing!!

Why Mt. San Antonio College hasn't fired this guy already is beyond me. He acts as if teaching is beneath him. Tests are full of trick questions, and the information is presented at 100 miles per hour. too fast too much!!

hmmm. is this guy for real? he must be the worst teacher on the face of the planet. he expects all his students to be math geniouses. he teachs his class at a extremely fast pace. he has an all trick question test. he gets mad if you ask questions!!!

Horrible teacher. When we asked him questions he said we were paying attention or it was a simple concept and why didn't we understand it. Out of 33 students, 2 passed. Fire this guy.

i felt i couldn't ask quesions in his class. he favors students who get what he's saying, which is like 2 people in the class. i realized there were better teachers who wouldn't insult the class so i dropped, but i wasted that whole semester with him

It wasnt me IT WAS HIM. I got a really good grade in 50 and I couldnt understand why the hell I wasnt getting anything but D's in his. He's biast, he obviously prefers male students. He's willing to help those who he deems are worthy of his help. Take Williams. I'm retaking 51 and now I get everything!! T you suck!

This guy seriously needs to find a new job. Everyone fails his class. Most of the time there are only about 10 people at the end of the semester and they have d's and f's. What does that say about the class...

he gives out alot of extra credit b/c he knows all of his students are failing. just bs on your hw. try to stay awake during class, lecture and hw will be on exam. have fun! math is easy but depend on the prof.

People like this dont have any buisness being in the education field.

statistical jerk!!! if you don't want to learn, he is the one to take. if you ask a question he asks you to answer it and you end up more confused than before! the probability of passing his class is slim to none. if you want to develop math anxiety, take his class. boooooooooo!!!!!!

dont take him, you will be so lost and not understand. he doesnt seem to really care that much about getting students to understand and he showed up about half of the time our class was scheduled to meet!!!! dont take him!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do not take this professor. He chews people out in class. I took him for the summer... very, very little patience... Apparently those who did well in this class decided to make good comments. Again for Business Calc... take someone else... and especially DO NOT take in the summer!!! started with 50 and ended with 10 students... some passed this class... they didn't have to work and had "sponsors." Shoot I want to have a sponsor!!!

I really don't know why he is a teacher if he presumes we already know it all. The worst teacher ever encountered!!!!AAAAAGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!

The worst teacher i ever had !!!!!!!!!!!

He is not patient and he expects you to know everything. I hated his class!

Horrible Teacher!! Difficult to understand *accent* and he likes to degrade and embarrass people who ask questions. I was sure never to ask any questions. I dropped him half way in. Horrible teacher!!

He doesn't explain clearly, cannot teach if he really wanted to, doesn't explain the subject clearly, and is EXTREMELY picky on his tests. Tests are hard and difficult, expects you to know the subject immediately. OVERALL DO NOT HAVE HIM FOR ANY MATH COURSE IN MT. SAC!!!!!

He is very bad teacher, very SxxKs.. I havent seen a Math teacher like him b4, so bad. Don't take his class

Hard test, lots of homework, can't explain clearly, mean.... Fired this professor!!!!

We were doing factoring problems and he told us "just don't think about it, and the answer will come to you" no it won't... factoring problems do not do themselves. He also said, "think smartly, and you will understand" really? because i was trying to think stupidly. Plus he gives a ton of h/w, and he grades his test really hard.HORRIBLE,all around

Mt.sac must fire this guy for sure! he cant teach at all.. his accent also really hard to understand.. :( Seriously, Mtsac should find another professor to teach Math 140!!!!

This guy is a ****! Never take this guy if you wish to learn something. The only place a learned was at the MARC. The tutors there teach more than this guy. Stay sway from this dude's class...

He was a pretty mean teacher. i asked for a handout that i didn't get and he gave me a cartload of attitude. Not very clear in his teaching but i suppose if you read and study more than i did you will pass. i would not recommend him though.

do not take this guy. he's mean. yells at students. doesnt really explain things. i attend class every day. do all the work sheets, understand the problems. yet cannot pass the test.he will put up tricky problems on the test to fail students. only been 3 weeks and half of the class already dropped. most people are currently failing. If you want to

The WORST teacher I?ve ever had!!! I have never liked math but this teacher made me hate it. I still can?t understand how someone with his character and dislike towards all students chose teaching as a profession. If you want to fail a class then chose to take this professor.

Math is really not a fun subject unless you really like the teacher. In this case, you would hate the subject & the teacher. It seems like he hates his job & doesn't want to be working with students. If you like asking questions, be prepared to feel stupid. In his class, he's the genius & you're a low-class mediocrity. DO NOT take him.

I put in a LOT of work. I was in has office at work hours and used the tutoring center. However, very discouraging teacher. Belittles you if you didn't comprehend a previous listen or ask to go over what he thinks is simple logic. His office hours are useless considering he made me feel too stupid to ask the questions I needed to ask to pass class.

Went to every class, did the 100+ q's of hw A DAY (fast track) he assigned, had plenty of mental breakdowns for a damn intro to algebra class & still got a D. I know for a fact i wasn't that dumb. Took Prof. Troxell for Math 51/71, & Stats, passed w/ an A. Didn't even need to show up for final in MTH 71 bc grade was so high. AVOID THIS CLASS

I would not reccomend taking him for 6 weeks because it is a lot of work. Pop quizzes and big exams every week and 100+ questions assigned a day. His exams are very difficult and you have to learn how to pace yourself because i started to find myself not having enough time to finish. Also, he is kind of sassy which i didnt really enjoy.

Probably the worst math class I have ever taken. His quizzes and tests are nothing like the homework and he goes out of his way to trick you with the questions. Seriously regret taking this class so much. He also always seemed so annoyed when people asked him questions.

Awful

Ok so where to start. Before hand I just want you to know that i've passed every Math class all the way up to 290 here at Mt. Sac with an A, and i just want to warn any new students about this prof. This guy give 100+ ?'s for homework everyday, he reads of the book for his lectures, he expects you to fail, and and uses trick questions on tests.

He cares about his students but goes off topic for riddles and other tangential stuff alot. I disliked the ambiguity of what conventions he prefers for things such as graphing. Also little things such as the decimal out to 6 places only to learn later exact form is preferred. Overall, as a math major nearing xfer i would not recommend him. good guy

He is a very bad teacher and has no sympathy for his students. Now the COVID-19 is serious. Everyone stays at home, but he asks me to buy a printer. Where do I buy it? All stores are closed except the food store. He suggested that I drop out of school. This teacher is too bad!

During Cov-19 he didnt work with students that were parents. Made it difficult to stay with the class.

During the COVID-19 Global Pandemic, I could not have chosen a worse professor. The class started with around 20 students and by finals week we were down to 4. I really wish I had one thing good to say but I can't find anything. Tests were very hard, no study guide. Tests and Quizzes are not given back to you graded. Hard to get ahold of him.

Had him a few years ago for this course. While working on some in class problems he completely demolished my desire to participate in the class by embarrassing me to the laughter of some of my classmates rather than simply telling me 'no sorry your answer is wrong'. Took the course again next quarter with a different prof and got a B. Go figure.

He is the worst Professor I have ever had. I re-took stats with Professor DeWilde and she was miles better. His lectures are long and don't go into much depth and if they end up complicating the subject even more. The exams are very difficult and introduce concepts that weren't on the homework.

Dont waste your time taking him please! I only took him because there were absolutely no other teachers available and I regret it so much. This class actually makes me hate school and his attitude and harshness makes me want to quit all together. Please do yourself a favor and listen when I say you do not want to be in this class.

Appears he is bothered by having to teach online, when other professors made the transition. Exams are worth the main points. Tests don't follow with homework. Textbook he wanted didn't match what was on the syllabus, correct edition wasn't available. Very condescending, doesn't respond at times, his classes are always open for a reason. Skip it!

If you're not stellar at math like me, you're not going to enjoy his lectures. I legitimately tried hard to do well, but it didn't work out. The homework he gives is very long, and can be tedious. The only reason I didn't dropped was because of my stubbornness.

He runs through everything really fast, puts trick questions on the exams, doesn't want to teach he made us learn from each other. The problem was that no one knew what they were doing. I had multiple papers that he graded wrong and I had to make him fix. On one exam he gave me five wrong answers when they were right and he would only fix two.

Please make yourself a favor, DON'T TAKE HIS CLASS. or you'll torture yourself / waste your time. The first thing he said "I'm going to quit my job soon and retire because I don't like way schools these days teach students". Even when finals were coming up, he said that many students are going to fail this class and have to retake. Its like waaaat?

Never choose!!! You will be really, really unlucky if you pick.

If you're not good at math, you should never pick him!!!! He lectures very quickly and many times a new chapter, he only covers two problems in class and ends the chapter with that. Don't even know what he's talking about. He has a lot of homework, so much that you can't even finish it.

He's very condescending and he basically doesn't answer emails when he's not at school. He basically doesn't reply until a couple hours before class, and it's all very short one or two sentences. Never uses honorifics.

Whenever he went to ask him anything in private he always had a very condescending and dismissive attitude. He grades really, really strictly. For example, he asked us to keep 6 decimal places and deducted points for any missing digit. But 6 decimal places really make calculations very difficult.

His exams were very difficult! The questions were very numerous! More than half of the class is failing near the end of the semester, but he seems to want everyone to fail and it doesn't affect him in any way anyway. I really, really regret taking his class now. Don't ever take his class!!! You will literally die if you take his class.

He is not flexible or willing work with you

Barely teaches in class, his grading scale is test heavy, he grades super picky on tests and knocks of 2-3 points for every mistake which tanks your grade. He looks for small details and you need to show work a certain way. He emphasizes that you need to always be asking questions in his class to learn and he will make you think hard in his class.

This was the worst class I've had so far. You can tell he has favorites. Gave us a quiz second week of school and expected us to know everything but we only went through it once. Test are hard, if you get one thing wrong a bunch of points are taken off. If you don't put something in the right place, points taken off. Worst class ever, do NOT take.

He is rude, doesn't care about anyone,& lacks respect. He doesn't care to teach. He reviews a topic once & wants you to learn it from the tutor. He says to ask questions, but when you do, he belittles you in front of the whole class & doesn't answer the question. He was always saying we wouldn't pass his class. By Oct, there were only 7 of us left.

By day one, I already hated this professor. I took him with the bridge course, therefore my class with him was 3 hours. Every few minutes, he reminds us that we will fail his class. Especially if you are fresh out of high school or taking math for the first time in a while. Demeaning, and doesn't teach well.

Never take a class with him, PLEASE. He's extremely rude and unable to answer simple questions regarding material. Especially for math, the ability to elaborate on concepts is so important, which he fails to do. He brags about students failing his class (wonder why!) I believe he has the knowledge but lacks the people skills necessary to teach.

This is the WORST professor ever. He is unprofessional and not worthy to teach students. He is NOT caring at all. He has the biggest ego ever. He gets mad easily, especially when we don't answer him quickly. He never really teaches in his class, instead he wants us to know something we haven't even been taught yet about it.

This professor was the only stats class left open & now I know why. He lectures & shows you the minimum of what you need to know. He doesn't go over the worksheets after grading them, we don't know how to improve on our mistakes & the test has questions that we barely even touched on in class. You will only pass his class if you know stats already

so much homework for no reason ,tuffest grader on the planet.

DO NOT TAKE HIM. During my fall sem, most, almost all of the class dropped. Cannot teach for the life of him he is teaching his own version of stats at this point.

He was a harsh grader, super condescending, and didn't seem like he wanted to teach. Only 3 students remained in his class, everyone had to drop the class. I think that says a lot about his teaching skills.

DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS!!! One of the worst professors in ALL of Mtsac. He did not like teaching, he even told us one day that he hates his job. He does not care about the students. He is VERY unhelpful and absolutely not kind to any students. He brags a lot about how many people drop his class. He shouldn't have his job.

Berating, mean, not good at teaching in general, uncompassionate, gets a kick out of making students feel incompetent when they ask questions. I got more viable lecturing from 10 minute youtube videos.

The worst professor I've ever had. I felt confident at the beginning of the semester until he continued to bring up the fact that only 5 students end up n his classes toward the end of the semester. He was right. I got no help from him at all except for harshly graded work and exams. Try taking another professor if you can!!!

He is extremely rude to students, made it perfectly clear in the beginning that he does not like his job, is a tough grader and doesn't know what he's teaching, by the end of the semester there was 5 students which he seemed proud of. I do NOT recommend him at all, you can't even ask a question without him laughing about it...
