Comment:

Do not, do not, do not take this professor. If you are in GDC at SF, you might be pushed to take his Fall B Trig class but do not do it. He is an unfair grader, condescending, rude, and sexist teacher. He is very well educated on the material but, when asked a question, will answer very rudely. Many students fail his class.

Mr. Bernard was an excellent professor. He is able to make difficult concepts understandable. He's not easy, but if you put in the effort, you'll come away with a great understanding of the subject and be prepared for higher level courses.

I thought Mr. Bernard was an excellent instructor, and I learned a lot in his class. He's not easy, but he understands the material and conveys his understanding well.

Comment:

Bernard was a very smart professor, but was also very condescending about it. He often answered questions by making you feel stupid about it. He spent less time explaining your question and more time telling you how trivial the answer. I think he knows what he's talking about and expects you to also.

Warren is a great person and an even greater teacher. He has been teaching for decades at SF and he knows exactly what hes doing. He is extremely intelligent and gets his points across perfectly. He will help you until you understand the material. Don't mess around in his class, he will respect you if you give him respect. Take him.

Comment:

I have several close friends who were incredibly excited for me to take Bernard. Maybe I caught him on bad days or my expectations or were too high, but he wasn't the teacher I felt had been described. He is a pretty adequate teacher though not incredibly encouraging. Go to class, don't text, do homework. You'll flourish in the class.

Comment:

He is a good teacher, instructions are very clear and he tells you exactly what you need to do to PASS but that for no reason means that this class is in anyway easy. He actually makes the tests and worksheets pretty difficult. To the point that if you can, you should find someone else to take.

Comment:

Great professor! Very clear and helpful. I was really struggling halfway through the semester and was afraid I wouldn't pass. He gave me advice on what I could do to improve my grade and assured me that I could still pass. He gave me the confidence I needed to work harder and I ended up passing the course. Hard material, but great prof!

I enjoyed the class and learned a lot. Bernard is one of the best profs at Santa Fe. If you come to class and do the work you can get a good grade. He is good at explaining difficult topics.

Comment:

This teacher is by far the best math teacher I have ever had. He wants you to learn the concepts not put them to memory. He really does teach and takes an interest in how you are learning. If you come to class and pay attention you should be fine. Amazing teacher. Everyone should take take his class, if you want to learn math.

Comment:

After taking his class, I wanted ALL the other Santa Fe students to use his teaching method: he writes down the highlights from the last chapter on the board prior to class, then goes over homework, starts a new chapter, then applies the concepts just learned with two or three examples. Simple, yet very effective. TAKE HIM!

Comment:

Best teacher ever at Santa Fe!!! His teaching method is well structured, brilliant, and highly effective. I am not saying his class is easy, no it's not, but just follow his guidelines and you'll succeed in math. Those in my class who complained about him were the ones who were too lazy to do the homework as he recommended. duh?!
