worst professor ever. he has a thick accent and his notes are chicken scratch. his tests/quizzes were ridiculous. you have 30 minutes to EMAIL a picture of your quiz (2hr ish for tests). the syllabus is wrong so you never know when you have a quiz (like bro i work) and for the final you have to MAIL it or hand deliver to his house. DO NOT TAKE HIM

Comment:

Professor is good at teaching Calculus but has a terrible attitude. Very rude and rolls his eyes when students ask questions. Does not respond to emails and goes off topic often. Lots of quizzes and is a tough grader. Class average on tests was usually below a 60. Very condescending and blamed students for his own technical errors.

Please save yourself and do not take him. He is very difficult to understand, and he doesn't have any enthusiasm so his classes are very boring. His class is supposed to have a quiz at the end of every class, and an exam about once a month, and these are your only grades. He decided to stop doing quizzes halfway through and only did the other exams

This guy is absolutely horrible at his job. He refuses to use any type of online system like MathXL and never leaves and kind of references available online. He is very hard to understand and his zoom calls have poor connection and he gives out quizzes with the worst timeframes possible. May God have mercy on whoever chooses him as professor.

This is the worst math teacher I have ever had. You cannot understand him. You cannot read his handwriting. He told me that to make up a test I missed I had to come to his house to take it... lol no. He is a really bad teacher and sadly didn't learn anything. Avoid!!!

Took him online and to keep it simple he doesn't understand how to use a computer. He is extremely old and has an incredibly thick accent which makes his lectures hard to understand. He did give out notes which when you could read his handwriting which was bad was kind of helpful. He also got angry if you emailed him about what he did wrong.

I signed up to take Calculus for my first year in college and boy how I was disappointed with this teacher. His ratings are average but only because those were from IN PERSON classes. DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS IF YOU ARE DOING IT ONLINE/DISTANCE LEARNING. He's hard to understand and he grades insanely hard! The class test average was well below C.

He knows calculus well, he just doesn't present it in a way that is easier to understand and digest. This is my second time taking calculus, once in high school and now in college. The presentation of material was not as clear and didn't really flow well from one topic to another and the rules were explained but not the meaning of the rules.

EXTREMELY NICE MAN. Does want you to succeed. Jumps around from topic to topic. Doesnt use a lot of real world applications, mostly theoretical. Loves proofs. I think if youre a math major youd love him. If youre an engineering major, youd want a professor whos going to include some applications in their teaching.

TAKE HIM! He is a great professor, he WANTS you to pass. He gives a lot of examples of problems and his tests/quizzes are straight forward to what you've been learning. Study his quizzes and you will do just fine on his tests. His tests and quizzes aren't long either. He does care for his students and even gives advice/stories in class sometimes :)

Do not take this teacher. He can't speak English. He is a jerk and will not answer your questions. In fact, if you go to office hours he will make it so you never want to go back. There is a quiz every class and you study 3 different topics at once. On top of teaching three sections at a time, he goes out of order, thus making it hard to study.

pay attention and take notes...he didn't assign hw, but that could be a bad thing if you don't practice problems on your own...he DOES show cool tricks when it comes to memorizing things...but he doesn't exactly teach the greatest...

This guy wasn't as bad as most ppl. said he was and he wasn't as good as ppl. said he was. He was fair, he explained things reasonably well, and he gave ample amounts of bonus points. He gave us a lot of HW, which did help on the tests. He did give us the old tests as usual but they were very different from the actual ones (NO partial credit).

Please take my advice... he is willing to help so let him! He will give you as much help as needed outside of class and gives ample opportunities for extra credit. Lets you take enough quizzes so 2 or 3 are dropped. Gives you old exams to study from as well. I will stress this again... spend as much time as possible with him outside of class!!

This professor really knows calculus! Some students think that just showing up for class should get them a passing grade. Not if the teacher cares if you learned something or not! Some of you students just need to grow up a little bit! This teacher doesn't put up with any crap in his classroom, which doesn't sit well with many of todays students.

He sucks, he should be fired for the way he teaches you. He tries and trick you on every test and quiz, and likes long word problems to make up 1/4 of his tests. Flat out, he sucks.

He really is a good teacher, you just have to work hard. He doesn't collect homework, so it is up to you whether you want to do it. My advice: DO THE HOMEWORK. He goes over tons of problems at a slow pace so everyone can understand. I recommend this teacher.

his grader is really tough. His tests are very hard!! He is very very willing to help you!! He gives extra credit, like a point or two a week, even though its only one point, DO IT! It adds up. Go to his office hours and do your work outside his office, he will help you. Wants you to learn. Gives partial credit! I will take him again.

Terrible Teacher, do not take him, avoid at all costs. 3/4 of the 40+ students in the class had to drop and of those only about 7 are passing. Does not care about his students at all.

Comment:

Champ really is a good teacher. As long as you come to class, pay attention and make an effort, he will reward you. He offers extra credit- do it. It really helps out your grade. The class itself can be confusing, especially at the beginning of the semester, because of his accent. But if you make the effort, it will not go unnoticed.
