Comment:

Fairly good teacher. Light hearted guy. wants students to succede. He explains most things alright, just pay attention in class. He grades in a very picky way. Homework can be kind of difficult, and it is 20% of your grade. However, tests are easy if you study hard. He replaces the lowest test score with final. Good teacher, but he's retiring.

Great professor, extremely organized and fair on grading. Tests were challenging but he picked rather easy proofs when he didnt have to. I definitely suggest him for higher-level math classes, he knows his stuff

Comment:

Wouldn't recommend taking him. I got A's in Math throughout high school and got a B in his class. Real nice guy, just has trouble explaining concepts sometimes. Most of the time I would get the concepts he explained, but I could tell the majority of my classmates didn't get his methods. If you're not good at Math, don't take him.

Hes the "cutest" teacher i have ever had, he reminds me of a little boy sometimes. His explainations are complex but if you follow the book it helps a lot.

Comment:

Although he's a nice guy, Kubicek doesn't inspire the love of math in...anybody. His quizzes and homework assignments were not bad at all, but his tests were killers. Do you enjoy tests with 1/5 true/false questions that are nit-picky and not covered in class? Well, you'll find them in grade-crushing tests. If you're good at math, enjoy. If not...

Comment:

if you know anything about stats, you'll be fine. he is super confusing and takes the whole hour to go through 1 problem, but the book is great and helps you teach yourself. dr. k is always willing to help you and answer any questions needed. do you homework WELL or you will be sorry. tests are ok if you study, hard if you don't know what your doin

Tough but fair. Nice guy and will give extra help if needed. You have to work, but it will pay off. He will tell you what you need to know on tests so pay attention.

I have to give this guy a descent rating... He should have failed me like 54% failed me but he is the nicest guy ever and passed me. Honestly he is a tough teacher but if you show up and try he will cut you some slack

He knows he stuff, but he doesn't know how to teach it so you will understand. He grades by his terms and not the books. He is not very helpful in class, and no extra points for being there. Lots of homework!!! Don't take this class!
