Comment:

Its not that Burch was a bad teacher, I just think that trigonometry is a hard subject to learn. The class was difficult, but he tries to answer your questions in a way to help you understand. If you are not good at math at all, then I wouldnt recommend this class.

I started falling behind after the mid-term. Personal matters took over and I ended up failing the class, but that was my fault. Burch is a great instructor and always responds to emails along with being available in his office most of the days. For being an online class, I would say to take all interactive readings and practice practice practice.

Comment:

I took the online class so I don't know much about Professor Burch. For all I know he's a great teacher. BUT DO NOT TAKE THE ONLINE CLASS unless you are a math genius or willing to get tutored a lot. Its hard and confusing and near impossible without a teachers guidance. whatever you do, stick to the real classes.

Pretty easy stats class. Students basically do most of the things on the computer. He shows you what you NEED to know and the basics and that's it. Most of the homework and tests are online.

Comment:

Math 21 online was definitely a hard course. Burch was quick in responding to emails but getting help in person would have been better. I never got to see my graded tests so I don't know how he grades. As long as you get 100% on the assignments and quizzes online and do okay on test you will pass the class.

Comment:

Professor Burch is great! He's hilarious. I honestly was worried about this class because it seemed so difficult, but if you attend class and take notes, you should do fine on the homework and tests. Definitely try to get 100% on the homework and quizzes online. Study the exam reviews and you'll do fine!

Comment:

Pathetic excuse of a professor. Took his "hybrid" class which means that attending the class can be an option. He never had class sessions. All the online work had nothing to do with his tests. Do not take him. Worst professor ive had in my 3 years of college.

Comment:

All he did was write the theorems on the board, the full definition and did not describe them at all, then do 4 examples and let you out after 35 min of class. The notes did not match the test and about half the class either dropped of failed. He was always talking about how he was a statistician too?

Probably the best Math teacher I've ever had. He always took his time with every question asked in class, and he was able to communicate with students very well. His lectures were actually enjoyable and I would recommend him to anyone.

Very confident in what he knows. Brings real life situations to the classroom so you can relate stats to your life day to day. Also very funny and easy to talk to. If he sees that you're really trying to do well in his class, he will do what he can to help you succeed.

Great class! Grades harshly on tests, but those themselves are not too hard as long as you study. Almost everything is online. There will be a group project near the end of the semester, not too hard either. Clear teaching and a bit humorous too haha. Overall, seems to be an enjoyable class. I was lucky to pick his class by chance! Good luck ! :^)

You must pay attention in class! Stats was way easier for me compared to algebra. I was very nervous before starting stats because I thought I was going to have a hard time and would need to study everyday, but it was the opposite. Mr. Burch doesn't always cover how to do each hw problem, so you'll need to be okay with asking questions.

Mr. Burch is an amazing instructor! He is so kind and helpful, it made statistics a lot more enjoyable. Funny little jokes here and there, it can be kinda cute! The class itself is quite challenging, but it's not impossible to get an A. It definitely takes hard work and studying, to understand and get through the course. Lots of work on statcrunch.

Math has always been my week point and with this professor i felt so comfortable and intrigued. So clear and explains many different ways until you understand it. I hope to get him for all of my other math classes. All homework is on Math Lab and hes is very positive.

I took this class in the summer after failing it three times. Mr. Burch is great at explaining thing and teaches you the fastest most helpful ways to solve the problems. Like I said I had already failed this class 3 times but after having him I think I can do this with my eyes closed.

1st, not a math person, Second, I am a nursing student so I've had my share of teachers. This teacher is clear, helpful and is the only on campus to hold a masters in Stats. He is knowledgeable, simplifies lectures to give you only what you need to know. Homework/quizes are online, very easy. Flexible teacher in grading. Got a high A, in summer.
