Very helpful, very approachable, made math more tanigble for me. First time I ever got a B in an advanced math class!
I have to agree with all of the previous positive comments. My last math class was 10 years prior, and I was hoping to just get a C. I ended with an A because this teacher is dedicated to helping you achieve. Do the work!
Best Math Teacher I've ever had! Made things so clear and understandable. Would highly recommend taking one of his classes!
Great teacher
He is a great Teacher! Strange. Easy to understand.
FINALLY someone who knows how to TEACH math! Take every class he teaches!!! He is intelligent enough to bother to figure out how best to present complex concepts (he can teach!!).and he is a hoot! I have been scared SILLY of math for years and I got an "A" AND I REALLY, REALLY LIKE it now! If only there were more like him teaching in lower grades.
believe everything you read abou this guy... he is awesome. He makes a difficult, boring, and overall terrible subject crystal clear and enjoyable.... yes, i just said it, math being enjoyable. Take this guy for everything he teaches and you cant fail. He is that good.
Great teacher. Cares about his students. Creative teaching makes students want to learn even if you don't like math. Complete all the assignments and be prepared to answer his questions. Gives a large assignment in the beginning of the course, but gives you plenty of time to complete. Also avialable for help.
Math can be a very boring subject (statistics, probability, calculus). Mr. Teats has the rare gift to teach to the level of his students, without talking down to them. The class was challenging (lot of work to do), but his grading was fair. Too bad it's my last class (I'm graduating in May), I'd take him again in a second.
Spectacular! He's a wonderful teacher. I hated math before I took his class and now I really like it. He breaks things down into little pieces so that complex problems become a piece of cake. If you are afraid of Math, take this man's class and you will not be let down.
I was also really scared of math when I first undertook this class. The professor is funny and relates the material to real life (which I think just helps bring the information home). If you pay attention, participate, and most importantly do your assignments you will be in great shape. Don?t hesitate to ask questions. Just don?t get lost in t

GREAT CLASS! Mr. Teats is the reason students succeed in math! He REALLY knows how to teach and cares that his students "get-it". Uses real life examples and doesn't rely solely on dry textbook approaches. Lots of assignments but necessary to understand concepts. This is one professor who deserves a gold star for his teaching skill and dedication!
I was terrified of failing at first. Math was not my strong point in high school as far as grades went. Teats drags you in with warmth from the first lesson, and even if you're half asleep, you stay awake just for those corny jokes he makes. Also, he's great help for after class questions and rewards honest efforts with decent fair slack if needed.
I was SO scared to take a math class at Wilmington. Mr. Teats helped me understand problems and took the time to work with me on any issues I had involving my homework. He really is interested in helping students learn and have fun while doing it. Always puts a smile on your face!! GREAT TEACHER!!!!
Mr. Teats is a great Math professor. He keeps class interesting with little jokes and funny comments. He hardly uses the book, which isn't too bad. Each week there is a handout to follow with examples, which help with the homework and test (which are take home). Easy to get an A, but some work is obviously required to do so.
Professor Teats is the guy you want to take if you need Math at WU. The guy has the rare ability to actually TEACH mathematics, and does so in a manner that you really are able to grasp the concepts. He does give a fair amount of work, but such is necessary in a math course. He is always willing to help before/after class and is extremely helpful.
Impressive teacher, didn't think I could enjoy Math like that. Alot of work, but it drives the points home and helps on the major tests.
Mr. Teats has great passion for teaching and its shows. He humor is great. I appreciate how he teaches because it helps me to understand the material.
Excellent teacher!! Relates to all ages and abilities. He will explain a concept in more than one way if a student has difficulty with the material. He's respectful of each student's abilities and offers outside as well as in-class help. We need more like him! Rosemary
Excellent Professor! Very capable and understands subject matter thoroughly. Clear instruction and comparisons to real world applications. Good class atmosphere and is very helpful, also available out of class on certain days of the week. Would definitely select this professor again.
specific and efficient teaching method. clarity and always focus on subject. capacity to explain the problem and it procedure to solution. encourage students to participate in finding solution. overall he is very helpful and he likes to have fun in class.
Excellent professor, clear instructions and always helpful to students. He keeps class interesting with little jokes sometimes. If you got difficulty with the material he will explain a concept in different ways. His teaching style is superbb.. Never had interesting math class like this before... I will Give him A++++++
Great professor, easy to talk too and ask questions of. If you have a question-ask-he will keep working with you till you understand. You get about an hour of homework a week, all quizzes are take home and the final is open book, open note and you basically review the "type and style" questions the week before the final as a review.
A very good professor. Would definately reccomend him for class. Kept Class very enjoyable, cracks some jokes. Also a very good tutor. He will work with you and make sure you have a complete understanding of the concepts he is going over. Great guy. Hopefully i can take him again.
Excellent Professor! Enjoys his work and it shows! Helps students understand the work and makes the complex problems seem simple.I would highly recommend this professor to other students!
Very excellent professor. Clearly explains each problem, keeps the class lively, simplifies the class work. I highly recommend him. Would take him again if i could.
I was a D student in math in high school. If not for his dedication & willingness to help you understand, I would've gotten a D here too. Is very succinct about what's expected, but show up to class or you'll miss a lot.
Very good teacher. I would definitely recommend him for math.
Very good teacher.Algebra has always been a difficult subject for me,but Mr.Teats explained it clearly.Loved the helpful worksheets given, and the clear explanations.I liked that he tutored on Saturdays, very patient,really wants students to understand the material.I wish I had taken Mr. Teats for Mat 101!
Mr. Teats is an excellent teacher. He makes the subject matter easy to absorb and provides plenty of opportunities for assistance. He makes math enjoyable and the way he teaches actually kept me awake during math. Take this teacher!
I wish Professor Teats taught more math courses. He is an amazing instructor, has the unique ability to really TEACH math. If you don't understand, he will break the problems down and walk you through with small steps to help you identify exactly what you're having trouble. I would recommend anyone and everyone to take his classes.
the class is easy and fun. this class was soo awsome and it is realy helpful. the teacher is great and he kno how to help you if u are struggling in class. this class is great and i wish i had a class like this again.
Whether you like math or you don't, Professor Teats' class is the one that you should take. He makes sure that you learn the material, and he will break it down until you fully understand the problems. Plus, he makes it fun and interesting!!!
I hate math, but Mr. Teats is a great math teacher. He understands the concepts and is awesome at explaining them. I learned a lot in his class. He made it seem not so bad. I would definatley take him again.
Mr. Teats is an awesome guy, one of the best math teachers I've had thus far. Attendance really helps your grade in the course, but he makes everything extremely easy to understand. If I had to take another math course- it would absolutely be with him.
Awesome teacher. Very patient and takes the time to explain things. I would definitely recommend this class.
execellent teacher very passionate towards teaching and he is funny
Good teacher, Decent Guy, Knows his stuff and can be very strict. Try to make class interesting but he is so not funny. Attendence is very much require unless you are a genius. TakeHome test! Mostly.
Great teacher! Would definitely take another class by him if it was available. He explains things well and likes to occasionally tell jokes in class. He is easy to approach and gives props when a job is well done.
Professor Teats is the among the best there is. His teaching methods are crystal clear. He takes time to review each and every step of a problem is you are confused. There aren't many people like him out there with the rare ability to actually TEACH math. Take this man's class if you struggle with math like I do. You won't regret it!
Excellent, energetic, teacher who really knows his stuff!
One of the Best and smart professor i have came across. Back Row Monday Night !!!
Absolutely one of the best Professors I ever had. He made a very difficult and complex course easy to learn and apply in daily life activities.
Greatest College Math teacher I've ever had. If you have the opportunity to take a class with Prof. Teats....DO IT!
Great Teacher. Knows how to work and accommodate the different levels in a given class. Very clear, and upfront. If you attend the class and put forth the effort, you'll do fine.
Awesome teacher.Mr. Teats is compassionate about Math & his students success.He explains math to you until you get it by using real life examples & stories.His lessons are better than any explanation in the book. If you show up, he will show up for you. Worth taking any class he teaches.I walk away from his class having learned a lot more than math
I am not great at math. Mr. Teats was an awesome teacher and presented the material in a way that was easy to understand and took the time to answer questions and give us a stet-by-step explanation on problems we didn't understand right away. I would highly recommend Mr. Teats.
Super nice professor, makes funny little jokes, makes everything super easy to understand and will answer all your questions. One of the best professors/teachers i've ever had
professor teats is the man.def take his class at all possible. also is in the success center great tutor if you need him. great guy
Professor Teats is the best math teacher I've ever had in my entire life. He is extremely helpful, and has no problem with staying after class (on his own time) if one does not understand something. This man should be given awards. He is strict with assignments being turned in on time, but this is college. 5 out of 5!
He is not very understanding when it comes to missing classes. Even if you have to attend a funeral. Explains everything, shows examples. Tests are take home although final is in class. He is somewhat a jerk.
Fairly easy math class. Take home tests, open note final, and assignments due every week or 2. Funny guy, cracks jokes sometimes. I'd take him again.
Great teacher. Definetly recommend him and would take him again!He was very helpful I don't think anyone can fail this class.
Mr Teats is probably the best professor that I have had thus far, being the most clarifying and understanding. There is no such thing as smart or stupid if anyone just pays attention then there is no way you wont understand and pass the class with this guy. Hes awesome
Mr. Teats is an excellent teacher. Really takes time to ensure students truly comprehend the material.
Good teacher. Good class. Decently easy.
4 semesters of college and Mr. Teats is easily the best one I've ever had. Doesn't beat things into the ground but makes sure EVERYONE in the class is clear on the material. likes to throw jokes in there to keep it light, many of them being pretty clever. Definitely extracts 110% effort from each of his students.
Great Teacher! I don't like math but I loved his class. He is awesome!! I really learned a lot!
It was a pleasure being in Mr. Teats' class this year. In class he is open to all questions and he is very clear when teaching the material. He makes sure that each student understands and is engaged. He even jokes around every once in a while to keep the mood light. Most importantly he is very fair! Overall, an outstanding teacher!
If you hate math, this is the guy to take. I absolutely despise math and was not looking forward to taking this class whatsoever. But Mr. Teats explained everything thoroughly and made sure all the material was understood. He is a great teacher and cracked jokes, making class enjoyable. I look forward to taking other classes with him.
Mr. Teats was a great teacher! I enjoyed his class very much. If you don't understand something he makes sure you get it. He wants every one to do well in his class. He cracks jokes every once in a while and that makes the class more enjoyable.I definitely recommend students to register for Mr. Teat's class!!
Great teacher. Is very helpful. You have a lot of grades which is nice
Mr. Teats was a great instructor. He took his time during class and made math fun.
Mr. Teats helped me a lot with my study. He took his time to explain the problem and always encourage student to do better.He is amazing teacher!!!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED: Teats is an excellent teacher. He is able to present course material in a clear and effective manner; pauses to make sure that the students understand the material, and will take time to answer any questions. Teats also understands humor/sarcasm (very important), and allows students to take breaks when they feel it's necessary.
Teats is a great teacher! He goes over the information during class, gives you a packet of questions similar to the class work for homework, and the test is exactly like the homework. As long as you pay attention, go to class, and do your work you can easily get an A!
Professor is very patient and won't move on with class unless you feel comfortable with the material. Great tutor as well!!
Tries very hard to make class interesting and seeks the success of every student.
Mr. Teats teaching style made learning inferential statistics less intimidating.
William Teats aka Bill was the most interesting teacher I have ever had. His humor and overwhelming involvement removes the typical expectations from a math class. This may be one of the toughest Math classes at Wilmington University but his delivery, fair grading style with partial credit, and willingness to break it down when you need him to...
Great Teacher. Always to Class on time. All quiz's and tests are take home.Final is open book open notes. Explains problems well. Is available for help if needed. However, his class is not easy. But if u come to class and do the handouts with him you will get a good grade.
Amazing teacher!! I am not a fan of math, but the way he presents it and teaches you; makes you want to be there!! He is very humorous and can be very clear when he needs to be. All of my past math classes used to put me to sleep, not this one!
Prof. Teats was an outstanding professor he goes the extra mile to give every student the chance to do well and actually helps you understand the real world application of this course. I can honestly say I had fun in his class. I would highly recommend Mr. Teats if you have to take MAT 308
Was helpful and i will recommend him to anyone wanting to take a math class. He is clear and precise.
Never in my educational career have I enjoyed, nor understood mathmatics. However,after completing Professor Teat's course, I feel confident and able to take on challenging math problems. I can now say I think mathmatically, which is the main idea I received from the course. Its all about how you set up the tools that the problems gives you.
One of the best teachers I have ever had.
Bill was a great teacher and very helpful. I wouldn't say I am the best math student, but he made the material understandable. Also, he was always willing to help.
he is great teacher.he will help you step by step , if you want to learn math you need to have w. teats
I dislike MATH but if you put forth any effort in Teat's class, there is no way that you can fail. He is a very smart man and can move fast but will explain anything you ask until you understand it. HIGHLY RECOMMEND for those with Math anxiety.
He is very funny, and makes the class interesting!
best math professor i have ever had
He is the best math teacher I've ever had. He takes his time to make up packets that have all the notes in them. As long as you pay attention and go to class, it will go very smoothly, especially if math isn't your subject. All the tests are take home except the final which is open notes in class. If you have the chance take him!
Best math teacher I have ever had! He made learning fun and so easy. If you pay attention in class and do the homework assignments you will have no problem. He is also a tutor at the SUCCESS center so if you aren't understanding concepts he will work his hardest to make sure you do. Take his class!
Bill is one of the best professors I've ever had. He pushed me to do better and each session I progressively got better. I would highly recommend him for his tutoring sessions since he is not teaching math currently. If you want to improve your grades and are ready to put in the work Prof. Bill Teats is your guy.
