Comment:
Towell gets 6 stars in my book. I am not great when it comes to math and it takes one hell of a person to teach me. Hoping for a C+ or a B in the class just because I prepared to fail. I do not understand some of the basic concepts that math has and I was ecstatic to find that the videos that were provided helped. If he can teach me, he can teach U

He is very understanding and gives extra credit for showing your work. He genuinely cares about his students and wants you to succeed. I had a rough time with the class simply because I did not have a good basis to go on. I have always hated algebra and this class was no exception, but he tried to make it as painless as possible.

Comment:
By far one of the best and nicest professor I have ever had. However I really wish that I did not take his class online because the tests were 80% of the grade and the homework was only 20% which really hurt my grade. Do NOT take Mr. Towell for an online class! However I would love to take more classes with him.

He was a pretty great teacher. My favorite thing was how excited he gets about the material. Every time he finished a problem and then turned around with a smile and said, "Now, do you believe that?" I smiled.

I took his classes back in 06 and 07, but wow! He's so helpful. He really wants you to learn and will do his best to make sure you're understanding. Would definitely recommend him. I only wish I had teachers like him nowadays...

Great teacher. Repeats himself a ton, but you get the point. Show up for class, do the work, and you'll be fine
