Easily the best Math professor at CSUSB. His lectures are clear and he's always willing to help if you have any problems. No homework or mandatory attendance, however, if you want to learn the material, you should show up. The only hard part of the class was his final, although he did add 15 extra credit points. Would take again!

He is a great professor. He does not go fast like some instructors do. He waits to see if the class understands and then moves on. I wish He could also teach 213, but I am thankful that I was able to be in his class. IF you do the homework and review the notes you should be fine.

Great and enjoyable professor with an ability to make the class interesting and educational all together. He really cares about the students and is willing to help you out with the material. Relaxed and lenient grader when it comes to grading quizzes and tests. Does give out homework, but it's not collected for points. Would take again soon.

Comment:
He's extremely well-prepared during his lectures, I never dreaded going to class as he was a pretty funny guy. He's very clear, he outlines what you need to know for the test. There's usually one surprise/confusing question on the exam that makes you use one or more concepts/theorems studied in class. Overall, a great professor.

Pros: Extremely well prepared lectures, Lenient grader, Reasonable pace, sense of humor. Cons: Homework 20% of grade, Less computation and more conceptual examinations, won't give too much detail for homework problems. Overall: Would Recommend, but don't take if you have two other math classes.

Prof Trapp is an amazing Prof. He's clear, keeps things to the point and easy. I liked his class because it was slow and smooth. He is an extremely lenient grader. He jokes around in class a lot of the times and does that so people can be interested in the lecture. Accessibility can be an issue at times.

He was alright. I thought he taught too slow. I believe in leaving the kid behind. However was not a very difficult class.

Dr. Trapp is a great professor. He really takes his time to make sure that all students understand the concepts and provides hands-on classwork. IHe collects homework which helps to pad your grade and is willing to help during his office hours. I truly enjoyed him as a professor and will take him again. loves the subject and knows how to teach it!

Refer to this teacher as Tricky Trapp. I got an A in the course but I had to really keep on my toes. His grade is made up of four parts, quizzes, homework, one midterm and a final. His quizzes were tricky! So try hard on the quizzes, and alaways do your homework, and don't wait till last moment to do it! He likes application problems alot!!!

Homework is assigned, but not collected. Attendance is optional. Come to class, do the homework and you should do fine on quizzes/exams in this class.

Very personable, very helpful, but he gave the hardest tests of any math teacher I've had. However, he was also the easiest grader, go figure! I'm a math major, I have avoided taking him again.
