He is a great professor and was really very helpful and accommodating to those who made an effort. I found him to be very encouraging and gave many chances for extra credit. He allows retests for those who need it. I really enjoyed his class and would highly recommend. I LOVE math after this class and can't wait to do more! This was a hybrid class.

Professor Hassebo is a great teacher . He teaches step by step and wants you to pass the class . Also he gives you opportunities to retake an exam if you fail and gives extra credit. Most teachers don't go over what's going to be on a final and only wish you good luck with him it's different he goes over till the last day of class because he wants to prepare for that cuny exam so you won't fail . I took math 96 before and failed but with this professor I passed because he went over what will be on the final take him you won't regret it . Just pay attention and try to do your best if you need help ask him and go to tutoring it will help you pass .

I took Prof. Hassebo in the 6-week session. He is one of the best prof, I dealt with so far. He goes through every topic in details and tries not to move forward until the rest of the class got the material. You have to practice. He gives a lot of chance and random extra credit work. If you pay attention and do the work you will be fine.

Also he teaches step by step and asks the class if they understand or not so just ask for help if you don't understand come to class do your work and study you will be fine .
