Comment:

Doctor Fleron is by far one of the best Professors I have ever had. He was intimidating at first but he's passionate about what he teaches and he wants you to pass, he has a ton of office hours. A few problems are assigned for homework online each week and only a few tests throughout the semester. Show up and put the effort in and you'll pass.

So in regarding math explorations I wouldn't recommend. Really smart guy but expects a lot for what is really supposed to be an easy get out of the way math class. Overall withdrew from class and took another professor and was easiest class ever like 15 min of homework vs an hour with this guy. Got an a with little effort so why take this guy

I loved Math Explorations with Professor Fleron. The whole semester we worked in groups and our quizzes (as long as you knew the material) were very easy. I would definitely take another class with him as a professor.

I came in to Professor Fleron's Math Explorations class not knowing what to expect. I ended up having the best experience with Math throughout this class. It was very tough, but he makes you truly learn the material, and also want to learn it. Work hard, participate, ask for help and you'll get an A

One of the best professors I've ever had and I'm not even a math major. I had him for Math Explorations. This guy is so passionate about his job. He always writes motivational quotes on the board! Be ready to put effort into the class. He has an entirely revolutionized way of teach math. He will definitely change the way you see the subject.

Professor Fleron was scary to me at first. He comes off as intimidating, but he is so concerned about your well-being. He loves when you grasp a concept that he has taught you. You do have a lot of homework, but it's mostly just tedious things. Very funny, nice, and understanding professor. 10/10 would recommend.

Smart Guy. Basis his entire course off of explaining why math is fundamental in our everyday lives, yet all we have talked about is connect the dot polygons. I would not recommend this class to anyone

Comment:

He's a nice guy, but in class always seems to be tense. Tests are okay if you study for them and if you spend extra time with the material you'll be fine. Does not follow teaching style of other teachers, hops right into the subject, be sure to know your pre calc!!

great guy but he gives WAY too much work for the course level... multiple 5-8 page papers on packets you do "in-Class", poster project and an essay on that essays essays essays... dont ever skip class or you might as well drop it and "guess what" (as he would say) you probably shouldnt take this class if youre looking for something easy

Great guy. He really loves math and taught me a lot, but his demanding work sucked the fun out of the class for me. I loved him as a professor but he required way too much work and he is the hardest grader i have ever had. I would type up 10 page math papers and only receive about a 60 on them.

He is one of the nicest professors and goes out his way to help his students. His assignments are often difficult to understand but if you go to office hours it helps a lot!! Don't skip this class if you show you care you will do just fine

Very hard grader, really makes you think. Hardly a math class, more psychology and deep thinking, but i did really like the class. I would suggest you be good at writing in detail if you take this course.

Fleron is a very nice guy and can be funny at times but this course is extremely hard if you have him as a teacher. He is the toughest grader I have ever met, there are no tests but he gives you write ups that you have to do about the work you have done in class. He grades those like a Harvard English teacher! Our class average was about a 60! And on the open notebook quiz our class average was a 55! Only one project you have to do towards the end of the semester but that's fairly easy!

Great guy, class is full of moments that will blow your mind but asks a TON from students. Also gives an assignment and just says do something with no direction. Having said that you will never find a teacher who cares more about his students than this one.

Comment:

Honestly he scared me a little at first. Prof Fleron knows so much about math and shows us how little everyone else knows. He is more than helpful in showing us how to actually enjoy math. If you take the class seriously then he doesn't give out exams just open book quizzes and write ups based on work done in class. Definetly a class worth taking.

Math explorations. Really pushes you, but with good reason. Super passionate and goes above and beyond to give extra help if you need it. Makes learning fun. No tests or quizzes, just completed packets. Challenging class, but if you show that you work hard you will get the A. Excellent teacher, I highly recommend him
