Comment:

The positive reviews on here were written by complete trolls. He was absolutely horrible at lecturing and grading. He never gives students enough time during tests and would deduct points for the smallest things i.e. underlining your answer instead of circling, forgetting to put the equal sign as obvious as the answer was, not labeling EVERYTHING.

Comment:

Dr. Peters is very dedicated to helping students. If you attend all of his lectures and take really good notes, you'll do great! As long as you are respectful and reasonable, he will treat you with the same respect. Be prepared to not use a calculator... but he is fair about it. He is also fair on grading. He also hints what will be on the tests!!

Comment:

He's an awesome professor! If you pay attention and copy all his class notes, you can easily get an A in his class. We had a quiz every Friday (about 3-5 questions) and 4 tests in total. He does assign homework, but it's just so you can get extra practice and he doesn't even grade it. I will definitely take him again!

Comment:

The worst class I have ever taken. Attend tutoring twice a week in addition to seeking outside help. Very condescending. After asking to go over a homework question during the allotted time he responded by saying "I can't believe you asked to go over that". Overall rude and not helpful at all.

Comment:

His exams are way harder than his quizzes and the homework he assigns. I got A's and B's on all his quizzes. I went to tutoring 3x a week and to peer study sessions once a week. I went to him for help and was told that he doesn't expect much from his students and he doesn't understand why I'm struggling. I attended every lecture.

Comment:

i took CC102 with Mr. Peters. Honestly, the only reason why I passed is because the class is basically common sense. He is knowledgeable and excited about the subject, but he talks more than teaches. His notes don't always align with the book. His logic & grading is confusing . He talks fast and lacks enough patience to teach a class. Avoid him.

Comment:

I thought I would be taking PreCalclus but apparently I am taking middle school math. I am not in any way prepared to move onto Calculus I next semester. We spent more than half of this semester completing basic review and he even commented in class that we have spent three times the amount of time on review than the book recommended.

Comment:

Extremely picky grader. He takes points off for lack of punctuation on math problems. He is easily agitated and has no problem talking down to people and making nasty or passive-aggressive remarks. The worst part is that the material he teaches leaves you completely unprepared for the courses you need to take after. Avoid him.

Comment:

doctor peters is a fabulous math teacher, although he is a ridiculously picky grader!! as long as you follow his format on the board and make sure to copy it directly in your notes so that you can mimick it for tests/quizzes, you should be okay!! he's funny, too.

Comment:

Intelligent, organized, has a contageous enthusiasm. Somehow makes difficult or boring concepts approachable & interesting. Will review concepts right before quizzes when students are confused. Straightforward testing, but a bit of a stickler on writing/proofs. Student-friendly grading points system.

Comment:

Mr. Peters is a good guy. He is really enthusiastic about Quanitative Reasoning and gives really good (and as many as you need) examples. I was never good at any math and i dreaded taking this course(esp at 8am). But I'm telling you... take Mr. Peters if you aren't a math person, it will make your semester easier.
