Comment:

I took Mr. Richarson's class long ago but remember him well. He's kind of quirky but will go out of his way to help you succeed. His classes aren't that hard but you still learn a bunch. He once spent 20 minutes teaching me how to figure square roots - just to be helpful. He's very, very smart and knows alot about many things.

I took Richardson for College Algebra online. There was a lot of homework, but it is well layed out. My only complaint is he doesn't put in grades often. He put in chapter 1 and the rest didn't get put in till the final.

Comment:

Richardson lays each lesson out. He is very clear on how to do problems, and gives students a detailed packet of problems that he has worked out step by step. That packet is VERY helpful! Never works out of the book, he only uses it as guidelines. Great teacher, easy tests, should take!!!

Are you serious? People who are saying he isn't a good teacher are obviously not listening or willing to pick up a book. He is a great teacher and is willing to help in any situation rearguards of what it is. TAKE HIM.

Comment:

I took his class online over the summer and found it to be easier than I expected. He allows you take assignments multiple times and keeps your highest score. He also allows you to take tests multiple times and averages all of your attempts together. I'm not a fan of algebra and I managed to get a decent grade in the class.

Comment:

He does his best to explain the math to his students, though not always entirely succeeding. A large part of my perpetual distraction was his laugh: a low, rumbling chuckle that he repeats with a highly irritating regularity.

Comment:

I had Professor Richardson for online algebra and he was extremely easy to work with. When I had questions he responded promptly and I could easily understand the logic to his math. He is very understanding of issues with the computer and there was very little homework. I would recommend him to anyone.

Comment:

Nicest guy in the world. Worst teacher EVER!!!!! He really sucks at teaching. He tries way too hard to relate to the real world and gets you lost in everything but the math. I could NOT learn from him. However, he gives you packets in the beginning of the semester that help tremendously. I taught myself algebra in that class using his material!

Comment:

The class is real easy. Mr. Richardson really understands math. He is good at connecting math to real life events. However it is really hard to pay attention because he is all over the place and just annoying to listen to. He does not connect with the class.Also be prepared to hear the word "what" a million times and to hear his painful laugh.

Great professor, always willing to help. He will help you if you ask for help. Anyone saying he isn't clear never asks questions. Has lots of office hours as well.

This professor is great. He says "what" about 150 times per class but his teaching is spot on and his jokes are funny at times. Highly recommended!

Richardson is a great teacher. He is very clear. He makes a lot of connections between math and real life. He teaches you math and tells you what you can do with it... like, people that are going on to physics remember this... or you will use this a lot in chemistry. He is THE BEST math teacher I have ever had. Take him!

Very easy class. Just make sure you remember to do the online homework, it is part of the test grade. And he automatically gives a 10 point curve and you can retake every test. For the final you get to pick a test to retake... if you fail you should go back to highschool.

He definitely needs to learn to come down to the students level. His personality and humor are dry and boring. He will answer questions, but sometimes even that won't help.

Worst teacher I've ever had. I had to force myself to go to class. He wrote in every color of marker but black so no one could see the board. Answers his own questions.. OK?
