Dr. P is an amazing professor. He truly wants ever one of his students to succeed. He clearly explains the topics, and doesn't try to "trick you" on the exams. Do the homework, ASK QUESTIONS, and show up and you'll get a good grade.

Dr. P is one of my favorite professors here at Winona. Grades very fairly and wants his students to pass. Makes class super fun and made Calc 2 very easy to understand. I recommend taking this professor if you can.

Not only does he give you the opportunity to retake tests at the end of the semester instead of taking a final, he also gives you a project that is sure to boost your grade. Show up and take notes, you will get an A. He is awesome if you go ask him questions. TAKE HIM BEFORE YOU LEAVE WINONA.

He is a very nice guy he wants his students to learn. He lectures and then sends home practice problems that have the answers so you can check your work. You have three tests and 2 group projects. The final is you can retake any test you did bad on. You will also have a few quizzes. Overall great teacher and hard working!

Dr. P is a great professor. He teaches really well but show up because attendance does matter. He will be willing to help up your grade in the end if you were there the whole semester. Overall great professor.

Dr. P is the best prof at WSU. He explains calculus in an easy and understandable way for students. HW is not graded but you should atleast keep caught up so you can do well on the weekly quizes, the project boosts your grade. He is also pretty funny and made an 8am class not boring at all. Would 100% recommend to anyone

Comment:

Dr. P is an amazing professor, but the class is challenging. Doesn't use D2L, he has his own website. Everything you learn is during lecture if you skip you won't pass. Only grades exams, quizzes and project. The project boosts your grade, and you can retake all the exams at the end of the semester. Take all the notes from the lectures too.

Pre Calc with Modeling and he was amazing. My favorite so far, he is so friendly! There are group projects that take up class time but are easy A's, he answers questions to help you get 100%. The final is the option to retake any test.T here are "pop quizzes" you write your name down on a paper to get extra credit when a lot of people are gone.

Comment:

I have had class with Professor Peratt twice and he is so much fun! He gives a quiz almost every Friday, and only has 2 tests throughout the semester. For his final, he lets your retake one of the two tests, so in other words, it is optional. At the end of the semester, you get two projects that you can work on with others in the class. Take him!!!

I took Dr. Peratt for Pre Calculus with Modeling. He was amazing! Homework isn't graded (but needed to learn), attendance isn't taken (only for projects-you have two but you can work in groups and he gives you weeks to do it IN CLASS!!) The final is just if you want to retake a chapter test to boost your grade up.
