Comment:

Joe was a great teacher for Stats. He did an awsome job at teaching the concepts. He was more concerned that you got the concepts on what you were doing than the actual answer. I was sorry to hear he wasn't teaching at DU anymore. I wanted him as a professor again for my next class. :(

I loved his handout, "Statistics for the terrified". Joe had a genuine love for teaching, and wanted to see every one of his students succeed. I heard that DU let him go along with many other profs... Terrible mistake on DU's part.

Comment:

Fabulous Prof Made it not only interesting but fun with his wacky sense of humor. Class was extremely easy for me but other students in the class who had not had math for a while had some issues b/c he goes through his examples rather fast. But all in all I would love to take another class from him!

Comment:

Too easy of a teacher. He told ud on the first week that no one in the class would be below a B. You don't have to do hardly anything to earn an A. Learned virtually nothing at all and still got an A.

Brilliant man. I don't personally know anyone more intelligent than Joe. He's fair and just; uses relatable scenarios to make complex concepts comprehendable; If you are interested in doing well, he'll be an excellent professor for you if you try.

Joe is very easy to talk to and to get needed information from. Just ask a question and if you don't get it, he will approach the issue from another direction for you. I can't wait to take Stats next year! I am a mathMoron and Joe was most helpful.

Course was an ease with Prof. Kearney. I appreciated his willingness to repeat things and to provide enough detail so all could understand. He is very nice and very informed/knowledgeable about Math/Quan. Overall one of DU's bests.

I didn't care for his style of teaching. Was hard to follow. Needs to tone down the *hugs and kisses type attitude* and just teach the subject. Found him very annoying. Knows his stuff, but couldn't teach it.
