Comment:

He moves really quickly through the material. He also expects us to watch the videos on MyMathLab and do the homework before we attend class, in other words we have to teach ourselves. His tests are tricky. The homework assignments will take hours to complete. Do not take him if Math is your weak subject.

Not a very good lecturer professor. You need to teach yourself. Marks work wrong even though answer is correct If math is not your strong subject stay far away from this professor.

Comment:

He is good enough as an algebra teacher, because we all have algebra backgrounds from high school, however upper level math is not really his thing, if youre taking algebra with him youll be ight. Hes a nice person and really organized as well.

Comment:

If you're not good at math, he's not a very good choice for you. He even told me that I'm better off withdrawing from his class. If you're really good at the subject then he's right for you but if not, don't expect it to be any easier with him.

Comment:

Professor Fisher was the hardest math professor I took at ucc. He gives pop quizzes and tough tests. Calc 3 is a hard subject and he didn't make it any easier. He was hard to understand. However he is a nice person.

Comment:

Here is how he is in a nutshell, he is a bad teacher. But if you're good at math and got a background you will survive. If you're new to the material DON'T take his class. Personality wise he is a nice guy and willing to answer questions.

Comment:

This guy is going to make you work HARD and even if you do, you might still fail. Around 30 homework assignments on mymathlab many of which can take a few hours if your new to the material. Tests have curveballs and are much harder than practice tests. Doesn't understand students' questions. There's other professors that will make the ride easier.

Comment:

Terrible. Very condescending and offers minimal help to students. About my entire class failed and he was very rude when it came to answering the simplest of questions. Rushes through topics expecting students to be already knowledgeable and gives long convoluted lectures that are confusing. Tests hardly reflect lessons in class. DO NOT TAKE

Comment:

If your not great in math DON'T take this prof. Its like pulling teeth to get a clear answer and when you get an answer it's very sarcastic, leaving you wondering if you should've asked in the first place. Prof. F. should switch to English and just lecture because he is unable to teach math. I repeat DO NOT TAKE HIM!

Comment:

I find him funny. If you have question you can ask and he is always willing to help, however if you do not go to class and do not really care about it, that's up to you. As long as you get involve with the class and do your homework it will be easy to pass.

Comment:

Late to class, very rude when students need help or ask questions. Lectures are confusing and not clear cut which is especially difficult if math is not your strong point. Moves extremely fast,if you can't teach yourself with homework don't expect him to help in anyway. Shouldn't still be teaching. Unfortunate because the classes are expensive.
