Comment:

worst math teacher in history of math teachers. He goes against every rule of math ever existed. He states that 1+1 is 11. That does not even make close to sense. He is illeterate. He teaches you about clocks and computer surcuts and makes 0 sense and is horrible at explaining the math criteria. He actually makes MA101 hard.

Comment:

He's a nice man but an awful professor. Quiz every week on the homework and he doesn't care how you do. Started with 35 people in the class by the end 15 were left. Does not treat the class like a 101 for non-math majors.

Comment:

Prof. Loth is a very smart man and I'm not gonna take that away from him. Math is one of my favorites things and I have always done very well in math. He teaches unnecessary things that you don't need to know. He goes way too fast. He uses variables instead of actual numbers which gets confusing . Overall he shouldnt be teaching a course like Calc.

Comment:

Professor Loth is a smart man. Though, that is the only nice thing I have to say. He should ABSOLUTELY not be teaching Calculus. My whole class never understands anything and is constantly complaining about him. 65 average on tests and no curve. 11 quizzes and lowest isn't dropped. There isn't even enough space in here to express how bad he is.

Comment:

If you want to take/ have to take Calc 1 do not take it with this professor. He is a horrible teacher, he might be a nice person but can not teach. He doesn't check homework but every week there is a quiz which includes all the homework problems so best do them or else you will not pass. No extra credit and no curves. Tests are very difficult.

Comment:

Professor Loth is by the worst professor I have had. Quizzes every week. He talks 5 miles a minute and does not stop lecturing. If you need to take calc take it with anyone else. Exams are ridiculous and the problems are nothing like what you do in class. He barely gives partial credit and does not help at office hours. Do not take this class.

Honestly the hardest class I've ever taken(calc 1), goes way to fast and doesn't explain anything nearly as good as you need it to be explained. He tries his best but it's not got enough

Comment:

He was really really nice, but he went almost too fast with the material. It was so hard to follow him due to an accent that was very thick. The weekly quizzes were something many weren't looking forward too, even with understanding the material I still did poor. I had a very hard time with the course. I wouldn't recommend if you struggle in math.

the best this school has to offer! so smart so willing to help and its so easy. HW is never checked collected or graded unless he says the class before there are quizzes every Friday like 3 questions and its a huge grade booster. He hates phones but if you sneak it you can make it! take him you will nit regret it!!!

Comment:

has a harsh accent and not easily able to translate. HE IS A GENIUS though. he drops the lowest quiz score and sometimes he has workshop days which are where you just do math and whatever like talk go on your phone or even just leave the class. he is willing to help i recommend him just beware of the accent

Comment:

Loth is a really nice person, and he is totally willing to help! He lectures very quickly, and is not always clear with what he teaches. Some of the concepts were taught very clearly, others not so much. DO the homework, because the problems on the quizzes are exactly the same, and the test problems are similar. Definitely an interesting class!

He isnt a bad teacher, you just cant understand him sometimes. Do the work, do the extra work and homework and your gonna do well in the course. If you dont understand what he is teaching, look it up in the text book. It will help. You deff need the book!!

Very difficult to understand. Not very helpful. Take a different prof. for this course because you will need someone to explain very clear and talk normal english to do well in this class.

Comment:

He's a nice guy, but he's got a very thick accent and is not an easy grader. I'm not a math person at all, so I found this class a bit difficult. If you're good with numbers you'll be fine. I also thought that the problems that we did in class were a lot more complicated than the problems on the quizzes, tests, and hw.

Comment:

took his art of thinking class. fair grader. TAKE NOTES! if he tells you to do certain problems as homework DO THEM. quizzes are 10 homework/class problems done on board. tests are pretty much the same. you have to not try to pass his class. do well on quiz & you'll pass. very helpful & nice
