Comment:
Dr. Sasmor jumps all over the place and only does stuff straight from the book. He doesn't give you good notes to study from so you're always lost. Its hard to pay attention and keep up. He expects you to know what your doing before you show up to class.

Comment:
Do not take an upper level math if you are an incoming freshman, he expects you to know prior material that you might not have gotten to in high school. He expects that you can finish new problems of new material on your own. Slader and Khan Academy will be your best friend.

Comment:
Dr. Sasmor was seriously the best math professor ever. He has tons of office hours and is always willing to help. He is interested in what you want to do with your life and always guides you in the right direction. He is funny in a nerdy way and his classes are never boring. Lots of homework, but that is expected in math classes.

Dr. Sasmor is one of the most brilliant people I have ever met. His classes are the most difficult I've taken, but I have learned more in his classes than any other. He is also really funny and entertaining, making his classes enjoyable to go to. He is also an awesome adviser. Best teacher at SHU.

First math professor I've ever had who a) explained complex material in ways that made sense, and b) spent time after class and during office hours explaining things as needed.

Professor Sasmor is annoying and unprofessional. He expects you teach all the material to yourself before class and then spends class time rambling about his love for vodka and cussing without reason.

Funny guy, but rough class overall. I'm not a math person to begin with, but he flies through material. Although tests are straight forward for the most part as long as you know the material, it can be hard to follow along in class. Seems to expect prior knowledge, I had trouble keeping up.

He is an excellent professor and adviser. He keeps you interested in the field and uses many practical examples. Reviews are straight forward and parallel test content. He is extremely organized so you always know what to expect. Material isn't the easiest, but he's always willing to help.

Terrible Teacher. All he does is read straight from the book. I can skip class and learn more from just skimming over a section in the book.

I didn't have the best experience with Sasmor. I sometimes felt that he automatically expected us to know what he was talking about, and wasn't very clear.
