Comment:

Anybody who claims that his class is an easy A by simply going to class and doing homework is a fool and should not be allowed in the real world. Typical thinking of the academician types! He was the worst instructor, brilliant mathematician, but cannot teach.

Very nice man. Not very good at explaining things. I believe he is leaving SWOSU to become a full time Santa Claus at the North Pole or at a mall somewhere. Seriously, he is brilliant just not very clear or consistent in explaining mathematical processes.

Needs better communication skills. Maybe a membership with Toastmasters may open up the Shakespearian actor within. I wonder if he still combs his hair with buttered toast. All in all Bill is the man!

Comment:

He is really hard to understand. He doesn't explain things very well. The only plus is every once in a while he'll say something funny. But i don't think that is even on purpose.

Comment:

This class is crap. I study continuously, but my notes are no help. I had to buy the solutions manual, study with other students. Makes you feel retarded. Overall just a horrible experience and i have to make a C on my final (impossible) or re-take it to continue with my major!

If you do your homework, even if he doesn't take it up or grade it, you should be able to pass this class. If you don't understand something, ask him, he will help

Comment:

When it comes to math, I think this guy knows what he is talking about. This class has been a little difficult for me, but anytime I need help he is more than willing to take time to break it down better. He will answer any homework questions before going on to the new lesson.

Comment:

He's definitely...odd. If you're not a math wizard, this guy is not for you. He's nice and has good intentions, but is VERY confusing. Also, he is really good at making you feel like a loser for asking questions. Take Dr. East instead!!

Comment:

Horrible experience. He choose a rainbow textbook from the 70s which was no help. His unhelpful lectures could put a person on speed in a coma. Needless to say, I learned very little and was unable to teach myself with the crappy text. He probably knows what he's talking about, but not a good teacher. Avoid if possible.

Comment:

Mr. Stick is hands down the worst teacher I have ever had. He does not explain things very well and when you do not understand something he looks at you like you are stupid becasue you do not get it. I do not advise takin him for a class EVER. I did not learn a thing in his class and he plays favorites.

I did not like his class. he is very hard to follow and doesn't know how to explain things if you have a question. He seems to know his stuff, but just can't teach it.

Comment:

I'm not good at math. And math concepts was really hard for me to follow. And I also studied very hard, but I could only make D/F's. All he would do was write on the board and not explain it very well. I don't think anyone should take him inless if they love math.
