Comment:
Jefferson can be a little mopey.ha. but he's just laid back. I strongly disagree with him not caring. what he deals with in 210 make him the most patient person EVER!! that class is chaotic. Weak point: I was so damn bored from him stopping to see if everyone understood. I wish he would have challenged me more.

Comment:
Mr shirley really isn't as nice as he is made out to be. he sees teaching as a chore that he wishes he was done with already. he doesn't like students but is "forced" to deal with him since that is his profession. jefferson hates life and you can see that in the way he acts and teaches one on one. he is a negative nelly and you'll see that soon.

He is the most amazing math teacher ever. I know I sound very 16ish but I am serious. Math was the only subject that was holding me back and he makes it so easy. He answers every question and is really laid back. If you fail this class its because your too busy talking and don't listen. So its your own fault. Good luck!

Mr. Shirley was one of the best instructors i've ever had! He collects homework but attendance wasn't mandatory although he DID mind if you were gone. His lectures were very clear, and you RARELY needed the book since he teaches you everything. I wish he taught math 114 this qtr :(

He's a great teacher; very easy if you do all your work. There are 3 exams, 3 assignments, 1 project, and 6 homework sets. He drops the lowest exam score, and the lowest homework set. He allows 1 page of notes (front/back) on an exam, and some of his quizzes are take home. Final exam is open notes/ open book! EASY CLASS TAKE HIM!

Comment:
Dont be fooled his class isnt THAT easy. Just easier than most teachers but you still need to do your work. That said I love his class, teaching style and sense of humor. Getting notes on the test is so helpful because I hate memorizing every formula. He tests to see if you can use a formula not if you have it memorized.
