Comment:

I was surprised by the reviews, he is a great guy and a great teacher, he does have a thick accent but you get use to it . He really wants all of his students to succeed and he is so flexible and willing to work with everyone to make that happen. He is a passive person and I think alot of students took for granted how easy going he is.

Comment:

Don't. Just don't. I read the reviews on here yet still decided to take him because how bad could he possibly be? Worst decision of my life! He barely speaks English, doesn't know how to use Canvas, and never explains a single thing to us. Also just overall boring to listen to. He's a nice and caring guy, just not a good teacher.

Comment:

From one fellow student to another DO NOT TAKE ANY CLASS WITH CHARLIE. He is a nice guy but a horrible teacher. He reads straight out of the book and expects you understand the material right away. He does one example on the board then goes to a new section. Save yourself the time and stress, either do not take this course or find a better prof.

Comment:

Im sorry to say it, but worst teacher Ive ever experienced in my time. Writes the answers on the board and doesnt explain how he goes from one step to another. Marked my first assignment as an F for his failure to tell us that we need to do certain problems in a packet. If you want to fail and be completely lost and confused, take this class

Listen up kids, if you actually wanna learn something, take the packets to the SAGE center because charlie overcomplicates all his material and you can hardly understand him. He does not answer class questions clearly nor does he present the material clearly. FOR PETES SAKE DONT TAKE HIM! I'm telling you this one student to another

Charlie is absolutely awful! Please dont take this class I was miserable the entire semester cause he does not do a good job at teaching the course. If you take him be ready to live in the sage learning center.

Charlie's really friendly and he tries to be helpful to his students. But he has some trouble communicating what he knows to his students. He is, however, easy to negotiate with. He's flexible with a lot of things such as exam dates and projects.

If I am being completely honest, he is probably the worst instructor that I have ever had. Would not recommend.

HORRIBLE TEACHER. 80% people have dropped or not shown up to class. Even other math professors know he's bad.

Comment:

From the beginning of class to the end, all Charlie does is read the textbook word by word. If you ask a question he is NOT clear and references the textbook for help even though it says the same exact thing. Also, a few of us were in the middle of taking a quiz and he thought that it was enough time and made us turn it in. I dropped soon after.

Comment:

Charlie is not a good teacher. His style of teaching is reading word for word from the textbook which doesn't help at all! Day 1 we had 30 students, and by the end of the semester, we had 9. I taught myself most of the material and went to sage. He offered redos for tests but I'd like to UNDERSTAND and know how to do the material prior the exam.

Comment:

Very hard to understand, although pretty understanding when it comes to missing test he has honestly been one of the worst teachers I have ever had. Doesn't speak very good english, makes himself laugh, and does not engage the class in anyway. I understand he is a college professor but I truly don't believe he is capable of holding a actual convo

Comment:

I've been great at math my entire life, and have taken classes that cover the bulk of this class's content in high school with A's. I've never been so confused and angry at a class in my life. It had been a few years since my high school math, so I was rusty, but I felt myself getting more confused listening to his nonsense lectures. I had to drop.

He is a terrible teacher. Doesn't explain anything. Only way to pretty much pass is to either already know what your doing or be prepared to teach yourself.

Comment:

He is a terrible teacher. He goes through material without even explaining how to do it and thinks that we already know it. He's lectures are literally him just reading the book word for word and tests you on things he didn't even cover. He's a tough grader 9 people dropped the class within the first 2 months.

Terrible teacher. RACES thru material without explaining and gives you problems on the test/quiz that we didn't learn. Very harsh grader, barely gives credit for your work. I relied on Kahn academy, Sage, and ALOT of YouTube videos. I had to drop less than a month in. Does not grade the million homework problems he assigns, 1st test & 1 kid passed.

Comment:

His lectures consist of reading the book word for word and solving "example equations" on the board himself without explaining what he's doing. We had a test and he didn't tell us we only had an hour to complete it. With only 50% of the questions answered, he shouted out "times up!" And long story short I failed

Comment:

Carlie is a great guy but when it comes to teaching, not so much. Hes very knowledgeable & skilled in the subject but his methods of teaching are not helpful at all. Its to the point I have stopped paying attention in class & am relying on YouTube to bring my 60% up. He expects you to know material before he's even taught it. Lecture heavy

Comment:

Charlie does have clear expectations but with his strong background in physics he is better fitted to teach PHYSICS not math. Also, his student hours are never what they tell you and majority of the time he doesn't show up. All I'm saying is that if 27 people were in the class and 11 are left at the end of the semester, that speaks for itself.
