Comment:

Hard class but wants you to know AND learn Math concepts. Must really put in effort and show him that you are interested. Also offers to help and will take the time to teach you. I was lost most of the time but he helped a lot. Great teacher. Again, must really show you are putting in an honest effort.

Comment:

I don't know why other students are giving him a bad rating, but this guy is a great prof. He explains how to do the homeworks on the problems that he knows you will have a hard time working on. He gives lots of extra credits. It is not exactly exciting class, but you do learn math.

Comment:

I took the Winter course & it was intense. In the beginning, I wanted to drop the class cuz I did bad on the first quiz, but for the rest of tests I got A's and B's. He gives a lot extra credits, and he grade very fairly. He gives partial credits on tests and quiz if you partially answer a question or you forgot to add something to the answer.

Comment:

what the hell is the class?What the hell is this professor? I can even teach better than this guy. Absolutely don't know how to teach. I wonder how he was hired. Just use his terrible USC and UCLA jokes everyday. Every body feels boring except himself! Trust me, if you really want to learn, even only a litter, don't take him. Or u'll pay for it!

Comment:

He teaches nothing. His grading is pretty easy, but you will learn nothing from him. Never cover the text book. You really have to read the book yourself. Taking him s like wasting time if u really wanna learn smthing. Dont leave pities in your life. Believe me!!

Comment:

i took him in high school. dont plan on taking him for calculus at pcc. discouraging when he's in a bad mood. encouraging if he's in a good mood. very tough class. he DEFINITELY has favorites, esp. the smart ones. he had the nerve to check my grades in my other classes and comment about them in front of the entire class. hes an ass.

Comment:

ITS TRUE HE MIGHT SOUND TOUGH AT THE BEGINING, BUT HES REALLY A GOOD GUY AND TRIES AS HARD AS HE CAN TO HELP U UNDERSTAND. WILL SPEND EXTRA TIME WITH U IF NEEDED. GOES OVER REQUESTED HW PROBLEMS IF U HAVE TROUBLE. MOST OF THE TIME DOES THE WORK SHEETS ALONG WITH U. TESTS ARE COMPREHENSIVE AND VERY SIMILAR.

Comment:

his class is NOT boring...u might not like him at the beginning...but u'll find him helpful later...even tho he doesn't go over everything in the book...what he teaches in the class is important and helps u understand the rest...the best thing is...u can get an A with 72 out of more than 100 pts on each of his tests...

I think the people below are a little tough on him. He's not bad. His class is not hard. He's easy on grading. He's a nice teacher. He loves math and try to make it interesting for students.
