Dr. John O'connor is a good math prof. His notes are very helpful. You just need review all his notes before take his exam. He always make hard question easier. He is a very patient and kind prof. I would definitely recommend you to take his class.

Comment:
John speaks too fast and tends to mumble a lot. Its nice that he writes a lot of stuff on the board but his way of solving problems could be better. To be fair though, his exams are not super difficult and just like what other have said, his exams are just like his practice exams.

Everything about this course was very organized and well thought out. He explains why we learn each thing and gives us examples on them as well. His notes are also very helpful.

He has a very monotone voice and mumbles quite a bit. The material is easy and I only needed it for Math 114. Going to class is not mandatory if you actually understand the material. Practice exams were exactly like the test! (Overall sorta boring but easy)

Mr O'Connor was a stellar prof. Weekly homework assignments but they are certainly beneficial. He talks fast in class sometimes but will always go back and re-explain if needed. Super smart and caring guy

John is a caring professor. Homework tends to be harder than the midterms, so you get good practice. Use the textbook to practice as well. However, he posts old midterm exams online for you to practice from, and they are very similar to the actual exam. Very fair marker, only takes off a fourth of a mark for forgetting a negative or number.

Super hard class but he's definitely one of the best professors out of the options you have. Definitely go to class because you will be lost if you don't. He does do a little review of what you learned in the last class at the beginning of every class which was nice. Overall really helpful!

John is a very nice person. His exams are pretty much similar to his practice midterms and examples used in class. He is always willing to help you out if you need it, and is great with you asking questions during class time. However he does tend to mumble so try and get a seat up front.

You do need to attend class because the textbook is USELESS, don't expect not to show up and get a good grade, thats not going to happen. He mumbles A LOT so it is super hard to understand him. He's okay, better than most of the math profs in the university. Would recommend you to take Elaine for this course, she's great.

His writing is messy, and he mumbles a lot, and he has a little it of an accent, though those are things you can get used to. He goes through notes really fast, and doesn't post on blackboard, so get you're gonna have to write really quickly. Overall, not a bad prof.

Very helpful math prof when you need him. Covers a lot in a class and does not posts his notes on blackboard so don't skip. Very generous when marking the midterms. Gives examples of the application of the topics in engineering.

I wasn't a fan of his teaching style. He writes notes on the board and he doesn't post anything on blackboard so attendance is essential to passing. He did examples in class but if the examples aren't anything like the homework questions, good luck.

Comment:
He doesn't expand from what he's doing on the board, making it super confusing. I think he should explain more of what he's doing on the board instead of saying things like"The derivative of so and so is blank, because it work." And lastly he talks quietly and mumbles so it's hard to hear important points in the lecture.

I am terrible at math and I got a B in his class. He is one of the most helpful teachers I have ever taken a class with and between his office hours and being in the help center, he was very easy to talk to. If you have to take into stats and you are not that great at math like I am, take this guys class. He is seriously great.

Class consists of him copying his notes from online on to the board. Mumbles a lot. Text book not needed as he posts all the homework questions online. Practice tests similar to exams.

Great Prof! If you attend the lectures, read the notes carefully and do all the assignment, the exams are not too difficult to get through! The practice midterms and finals definitely helped prepare me for the exams. It also helps to meet a study buddy to go over assignments with!

John is a really great guy, but he mumbles and writes on the whiteboard a lot. He's very quite. If you go to his office hours he is willing to help and he answers emails quickly. There is weekly homework assignments. His practice midterms and finals were identical to his exams. Overall, would take again.
