Comment:

Professor Alemansour cares about his students and wants to see them succeed. He'll know your name/who you are by the second class. Business calculus (calc. in general) is a tough course. Show up to EVERY class, take notes, and do all the homework. Show him that you're trying and you'll pass with a B. Funny guy. *Must have the textbook*

Comment:

his teaching is not perfect but it's good, he likes to help his student, but sometimes he got lost when he starts the lecture and this thing is annoying. he does give extra credit. his grading is great and his exams are simple but he always put that question which most of the students couldn't solve it but after that he usually give us extra point

I had him for 150A and 150B. Best math teacher I ever had. He knows his stuff and explains it in simple to understand ways. He is demanding and calls on you in person so be prepared. I highly recommend.

Comment:

I took my pre calculus long time ago so I was very afraid of taking this class. Prof A was a life saver. Honestly, I don't think I could have done it without him. His lectures were helpful and he answered all the questions that students had. He knows the material and gives a lot of examples. His tests were hard but fair. Be sure to participate.

Comment:

I had the luxury of having Professor Alemansour for both 150B and 250A (Calculus II & III). Two years later and I still appreciate his teaching methods. His lectures are clear, his tests are fair, and most importantly he helps you learn the material. A dedicated and motivational instructor, I recommend taking his course if you can.

Comment:

So i had to work my asymptote to pass this calculus course. I didnt take calculus in highschool so i pretty much had to learn on my own since no study guides are given. Beware of popquizzes, lectures are fastpaced but his tests are not hard. Make sure you watch youtube videos (organic chemistry) and youll pass. Participate as much as you can.

He makes a lot of mistakes and will grade you low for participation and will not explain his reasoning. Makes it very difficult to receive a high grade.

One word to describe him: Amazing! He is the best Professor in Cal State Fullerton. He is very helpful and kind. The quizzes and homework are easy. Also it maybe in the Irvine Campus, it so worth drive. The exams are very easy. Myself not being good at Math I was still able to pass this class with an high grade. Take him you can you wont regret :)

Comment:

Professor Alemansour teaches the class out of the textbook, so expect to do practice problems the whole time. Homework is done through WebAssign. There are 4 exams total, with the final being accumulative. He assigns a written project towards the end of the course and it is worth as much as the final. Overall, he's an okay professor.

Professor Alemansour is one of my favorite professors. He explains math very clear. I am average for math, but his class makes math that much easier to understand. I took him for summer, so hw was expected to be due every two days. Do your hw if you want to do well on the test. Also, don't skip lecture. His lectures are pretty enjoyable anyways.

Alemansour was one of my favorite professors. He cares about the students understanding the material. Homework gives you a lot of practice for the tests. Project at the end gives you cushion points. I thought it was a fun class. Makes cheesy but fantastic jokes. Take him!

Easiest class I have taken in college. If you like math you'lldo great. I would have gotten an A if I would have tried harder. Simple syllabus, you just do the online homework, a couple quizzez, and one easy project. Class is boring but doable.

Comment:

Terrible at math so I busted my hump. 3 exams, one paper which was fairly easy. He gives good lectures and makes the lessons very clear, so its up to you to take careful notes. HW on MyMathLab every week. Material on exams are familiar if you studied carefully enough - no tricks. Great professor, would take again

He is really a good professor. He clearly states what he expected from students. Funny. He is also good at explaining and tries to make them easier. He also gives reviews before every exam. Although it may be hard, but if you study hard, you will get through it. I will take him again if I get the chance.

The best math teacher I've ever had! He cares and it shows. He gives very thorough lectures and makes sure everyone understands. It's a tough class but if you work hard and attend class you should be able to pass the class. Easily one of the best teachers available for math classes. 10 out of 10 would take again.

Steve is hands down the best math teacher I've ever had. He was very helpful with everything I asked him. The first test I got a 67%, then got an 88% then a 98% and I got a 94% on the final so talk about progress baby! There were three tests and a final, all tough. You use my MathLab for all the homework, don't get the book. Come to class prepared

Steve Alemansour is an excellent math professor, but be prepared to work in his class. Do NOT skip class! It will take you quite a while to get back on track. He does a very good job of explaining the material and his examples are extremely helpful. Also make sure you're occasionally asking/answering questions, as participation does matter!

Comment:

Professor Alemansour is amazing! He is very clear and everything on the exam has been gone over in class at least once. He is a great teacher and will not give up on a question that he is struggling with. Ask him loads of questions, otherwise he will assume that there are no issues with a section. Don't be afraid to approach him!
