Comment:

He is fine. Take this course with him if you just want to pass, but not to learn to love math. Lot's of sitting in class and watching him struggle with technology BUT he is trying to get everyone to pass. All midterms are take home. You will get an A if you show up and try a little.

WARNING: DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. Dr. Wilson's class is too all over this place. His instructions are so unclear, he makes basic algebra seem like rocket science. he is very rude to his students at times. he doesn't care if you are on your phone. if you have to take him just show up, sit in the back and bring headphones.

Comment:

Although it was a super easy class, he made me hate the subject. He rambles on too much and his notes are all over the place. He does have a good heart and tries to get his students involved in learning, but he yells a bunch. Attendance isn't mandatory, but there is in class quizzes almost every class.

Looking back at it, I loved this class! But he does get off topic and is a little confusing and eccentric. All his tests are take home and you can always go to the tutoring center for them but he has links online that will help you pass easily. He is an easy grader and really loves his students. If you get on his good side then you will love it!!

Dr. Wilson is a great teacher who really cares about his students. Yes, he does have a very unique and unorthodox teaching style. He doesn't take attendance, all tests are take-home (yeah, take-home), and you can re-take tests as many times as you'd like. His tests are so confusing, but go to his office hours and he'll help you understand them.

easy class and stuff can be made up, but he has to be the hardest to understand teacher i've ever had in my life. He never answers any questions clearly and constantly mumbles. NEVER USED THE BOOK

Super easy class. mid terms can be made up, hw can be late, can earn extra credit for practice problems. He is resourceful and nice. He is kind of old and stutters at times he even takes naps in between breaks and can put you on the spot if you talk but not in a mean way.

I <3 p.wilson. Extremely passionate about math and the sweetest professor I know. Easy class, can re take midterms, turn in late hw, and has tons of office hours. Take him! He's awesome! ..Too many kids goof off in class as if they were in high school still.. please be respectful and don't take advantage of him (=

Comment:

The first moment I saw him I laughed. He looks somewhat homeless. However he is a great teacher. Clear, easy and the midterms and final are pretty much a breeze. Can turn in homework late and still get credit. Attendence not always necessary. Studders a lot and goes off on tangets, but it's good for zone out time. Easy GE class- I recommend him.

Comment:

Steve is a great teacher! Very quirky, and he makes math (for those of us who don't LOVE it) a little more bearable. I work on campus and when he sees me he still says hi and remembers my name, even though it's been a few semesters. Take him if you have the chance!

really easy and friendly teacher. students take advantage of him all the time, but there is no way you will NOT pass the class. He doesnt require you to be better but he will know who you are and your name by the second class.

he mumbles over every word that comes out of his mouth. teaches with his eyes closed and goes on random talks. all midterms are take home and you can retake them. goes over any homework question you ask him to in class. can turn in late hw. no one ever comes to class and there is no need to. he is a guy who means well and gets to know you. EASY!!!!

Easiest math class you could possibly take. He gives you the test questions and then lets you retake the tests if you dont like your score. He is really nice.
