Honestly, worst teacher I've ever had. If you like having the textbook as a reference or learning Calc 3 the normal way, avoid him!!!! Proofs ALL class.

This guy can give some people a hard time but the truth is that if you study and attend class he will not only like you but he will take your attendance into consideration. He is not the best professor at FSU and it can be hard to understand, but it depends on you and how hard you are willing to work.

Comment:
Great teacher, but hard. If you want an easy class, this isn't it. I hate Calc 3 as a class, but he teaches it well, and if you pass the class you'll understand the material. You almost must attend class, even though he posts lectures online. Funny guy, great accent.

He is a fair grader and tries to make the material clear. This class is just hard. I enjoyed every minute that he was my teacher because he is a very funny man and makes class interesting.

I am usually good at math, I got an A in Calc II, but this guy teaches really weird, and doesn't follow the book. Take someone else.

Mr. M-g is a great guy, but I cannot stand the way he teaches. He makes his own lectures that in no way coincide with the book . He is a very nice man but my B will be hard earned.

Dr. M-G is one of the greatest professors I've ever had. He teaches in a manner in which classes should be taught, i.e. in a facilitating way. It may be hard, but that's how you really learn the material and truly understand it.

This class was very difficult. He refuses to help you if you go to his office hours. Not a very nice man at all. I would HIGHLY reccomend taking another teacher.

Comment:
Math isn't so good for me, but Dr. M-G was the best teacher I've ever had. E explains everything that you need to know, that way you aren't just memorizing formulas, but you know where they're from, and what they represent, which is the point of Calc I in the fisrt place. You gotta do the HW, but it's always practically the same as tests.

Man, Dr. M-G was the best math teacher I ever had. I ended up getting an A, but you must be eager to learn the subject at hand. He gives mock test that are somewhat close to the actual thing, so it forces you to learn the material. Absolutely a great teacher, and has a great sense of humor.

Dr. M-G is one of the most intelligent teachers I've ever had. He has great ways to look at life and he teachers math in a way to where you really understand why something happens. Great teacher!

does not teach concepts- just jumps into problems. if you learning from your book, his class might be right for you. otherwise, i advise against.

An excellent professor. Friendly, with a good sense of humor, he presents the material in a way that is accessible to anyone making any attempt to learn. And he has a British accent, so he is even fun to listen to.

one of the worst teachers i've had at FSU. tests were extremly difficult. put lots of trick questions on the test. although the averages for the tests were like %60, no curve whatsoever. lectures are dreadful. wears the same clothes everyday.
