Can be boring but uses interesting examples to keep you paying attention. Very easy to understand as he makes things seem easy and teaches very clearly. Answers all questions knowledgeably, as you can tell he really knows what he's talking about. I would take a class with him again anytime.

It is somewhat hard, at least for me it was. Despite what I got in the class, it's my fault, not the professors. He taught everything properly, cared for his students and explained everything thoroughly. Put in work!

Comment:

Can be a little boring but I think that's the material not the prof. Really strives to make everything easy to understand and follow. We had a temp prof for a day and spent 75 minutes explaining a concept that made no sense to us, but Professor Wright was able to explain it in 10 minutes in a way that made sense.

Prof. Wright is an engaging instructor who does his best to communicate the course content effectively. His effort is evident in his lectures and teaching approach as a whole. His use of anecdotes, props and practical applications made the course content much easier to understand and contributed to a positive learning environment.

The lectures were quite heavy, with very specific examples. But Prof. Wright always answer questions clearly if you have any. The final exam was multiple choice and very tricky even with cheatsheet. He's always welcome questions out of class and willing to give additional explanations.

Recommended to change grading structure to be more flexible, not only presentation and exam. It will be good if it's splitted into 4 section including assignment and attendance

It was a great experience taking his course. He is very knowledgeable and makes the material easy to understand. He's available outside of class, prepares you well for the exams, is a reasonable grader and will make small adjustments to your grade if you show your work and understand the content. I highly recommend him as a stats professor.

I liked the topics covered and learned a wide variety of subjects. Professor Wright style of teaching is very respectful and smooth. I recommend taking courses with him. Also, a cheat sheet (One 2-side paper) was allowed for the exam.

Comment:

Nice prof, I liked him. Lectures are TOUGH to sit through if you're anything like me, but you will catch the really important things if you follow the examples he does in class - they really help. Be prepared to read, and find some good people to study with. No lies, it's a hard class, but he is a good prof. A good cheat sheet will be vital!

Best prof for Stats 1. The material is really hard but Professor Wright makes it easy. Gives short assignments that are extremely helpful and happen to be worth 20% of your final mark so definitely do them and try to learn from them. Very warm and supportive to students. I only wish he taught Stats 2 as well (pls).

He's an alright professor at most. He's not the best lecturer as his explanations are sometimes unclear or he moves too fast for students. Class is difficult and slightly unorganized.

He was a very knowledgeable professor who did a good job of delivering the content. The course has a moderately difficult course load that requires a considerable time commitment. Would recommend him above all other professors (avoid phansalker)
