Decent teacher and is willing to work with his students. Just follow his lectures and understand that the homework you do with the book is harder than his tests. His tests follow his lectures.

He makes you work for your grade. He is a very nice person and you can tell he cares for students but he expects their very best and nothing less. Tests and lecture can be heavy.

Prof. Romines teaches very scatteredly and with a lot of unorganization. With tests counting so majorly and the tests being VASTLY harder than ANY content he was giving us its EXTREMELY difficult to do well in his class without very extensive outside of class

No book used and no help either. He is scattered and disorganized. Impossible to learn from since he doesn't teach and there's no book to do it yourself.

Comment:

Mr. Romines evidently hadn't taught Calculus in quite a while. I am very good at math but this class wasted my time and money. He spent his lectures trying to figure out his notes from long ago. No book/homework meant no help. Impossible to teach yourself without having something to use to do so. Old cryptic notes + teacher to match AVOID!!!

Comment:

Don't even consider Mr. Romines. His lack of a textbook and homework assignments make studying very difficult. Lectures are long and he often strays way off-topic and writes sloppy notes everywhere which makes everything very confusing. Though some say that he is quite hilarious, I found much of his humor to be crude and inappropriate. Just no.

Comment:

Nice guy but is a difficult teacher. He won't teach from a textbook and uses methods he makes up. Jokes around a lot and helps when you need it. Skips around from topic to topic in class and is hard to keep up with if you aren't good at math. Notes he writes on the board are very unorganized and difficult to understand.

He's pretty funny. He uses his jokes almost as a way to help people understand. Like someone else said, you'll either love him or hate him.

WORST TEACHER EVER! Took after lunch and he was all over the place. Random numbers were given for examples so it was hard to follow. Test were extremly hard! Given the test back and there were no corrections you had to find them out yourself.

Comment:

I have had Mr Romines for two of my math classes, and i have learned that it depends on the time of day before i take him again. Early classes he is okay but late classes stay away because he does not stay on topic, and he is hard to focus on.

I attempted to contact him during office hours about an absences due to sickness, and he was a little rude and did not have time to help, told me to get with classmates for explanation. He has is hard to follow when he is teaching, and bounces between subject a lot, including random story time. I would not take a class with him again!

Comment:

While I seek assistance regularly and ensure I thouraly understand homework assignments I have been unsuccessful in making over a 80 on an exam. The class average is a 60 and making a 90 seems to be reserved for math majors. He is a great guy and easy to get along with but exams are all but impossible.

I liked him as a person, but a teacher?? NO WAY. Our homework was nothing like what he went over in class. I am really good in math, but the whole class from day one I had to teach myself how to do the homework.

Comment:

Mr.Romines was a very good teacher when I had him for 0800 math. However I have heard otherwise from those who have him for prob and stats. They say he just flies through it. I liked him for the 0800 class. Too bad he didn't teach 0850.

Comment:

I'm not usually a good of a math student, so my making an A should show that Mr. Romines is a great teacher. He gives homework, goes over it, and counts it as a grade (easy 10%). Very helpful and will go over topics to make sure the entire class gets it. Good grading system, gives fair partial credit. Would recommend!
