Comment:

This professor is awful. He makes things 10x harder. He tries to do things his own way. He is very rude and will call you out in front of everyone just to point out you are wrong. A girl in my class didnt know the answer and he became very rude and stated he was losing brain cells listening to her try to figure it out.

Comment:

This professor is horrible at teaching. He doesn't go along with the textbook and says he tries to explain things his way so it is easier. IT IS NOT EASIER. ALL HE DOES IT CONFUSE YOU AND MAKE THINGS MORE COMPLICATED! Do not take him unless you are good at math. The only good thing is he let's you use notes on tests. DON'T TAKE HIM!!

Comment:

This Professor does not teach you anything related to the homework or tests given online. His example problems are extremely basic whereas the tests are the most difficult problems you can see. He likes to give philosophy lectures rather than teach math. I would NOT recommend taking any of his classes. RUN AWAY NOW!!!!!

Comment:

This professor is extremely rude and is not afraid to call you out in class, even if you are not doing anything wrong. Loves to push peoples buttons and is a very slow teacher. I took him last semester and we did not even learn all of the material before the final exam. I would NOT recommend taking this professor.

i really liked him in the beginning but as time went on i realized that he was just plain rude. he called me out in front of the whole class that i did terrible on a test and when i stayed after he proceeded to explain to me my incompetence at math and how i must be staring at a wall during his lectures when i showed up and was engaged evry class

Comment:

No offense but the people in this class level hardly show upcare so he goes slower than he has to because he is constantly reviewing. Does rush through the end material because of this. Tests are open book, but tougher than examples in class, not too hard of a grader because he wants you to pass.

Comment:

Is very quirky but helped me learn a lot. However, you must really show him that you want to learn and succeed, otherwise you may find yourself lost. Put forth the effort and you will pass.I am terrible at math and recieved a B. Seems rude at first but has his own ways of helping you learn that really works. He cares about you and your effort.

Comment:

This class was one of the worst classed i have encountered. He rushes through the material and will give you a test after rushing. the second half of the class is the average of your test grades. Mind you he will rush through a material to give you a test. Good luck if you are taking his class

Comment:

One of my fav's too. I even get help from him now for the math I'm taking. He makes you understand and breaks it down even if one person doesn't get it. He has a sarcastic sense of humor but it's funny. The only thing is he keeps you to the last second of class.

Prof. Gallagher is THE MAN. I hated math and still suck at it but he is a great teacher and is finally the one who can teach me math. This is a Big Deal. If he can teach ME math, then he can teach anybody math.He's a Dude.

Comment:

Gallagher is probably one of my favorite professors I've had at Towson. I HATE math but I enjoyed going to his class because he's really funny and can make a boring topic interesting. He really wants his students to pass and will let you retake tests if you fail. I wouldn't take the class again but I enjoyed him as a professor

Comment:

It's a good class if you go to EVERY SINGLE day! You miss one class and then you are basically lost the rest of the unit :( However, if you ask for help and/or go to tutoring, you'll do fine. Also, if you fail a test the first time, he let's you retake it because he really wants you to pass. Overall, it's not too bad; just go to class!

He was SO nice! We had homework due every class but he goes over every problem! The tests are all that count but you have to do all the homework to be able to take the tests. He always has some kind of dumb story but they make you laugh! Very easy class! Recommended!
