He is difficult to understand and very vague on what he teaches. I do not recommend taking him, especially if you already struggle at math.

Mr linnen definitely smoked a lot of reefer in his time. Cool dude but his little helper girls are on payroll and do most the work. Overall I love starting my day to linnens smooth talking.

He made my first semester in college so much easier! Jokes are not that funny but he keeps the atmosphere light with them.Quizzes every day, but they are very straight forward, as are tests. I would definitely recommend him for any Math 115 students.

I've always struggled with math but Mr. Linnen's class was very helpful and probably one of the best math classes I've ever taken. He gives clear step-step lectures and then gives you daily quizzes right from the homework. Then the exams come right from the homework and quizzes. The SLA is also very helpful

Comment:
Very good teacher. Quizzes everyday but they come straight from the homework and he puts them directly on the chapter tests. He explains things over just to make sure you understand since he doesn't like people asking questions during lecture. All in all, it was a great class, and I enjoyed going.

Comment:
This class was so easy. He didn't collect homework, you just had like a 5 question quiz everyday. Which those were questions on his tests and questions on his test were on the final. He didn't add any new questions. He does over explain but makes sure you know it all. And you get out of class 5 minutes early :)He is a very good teacher.

This class has 5 exams and a bunch of quizzes. The quizzes are right out of the homework assignments. If you do the homework, his class is very easy to get an A.

Pretty easy class. Daily quizzes based on the homework assigned in the textbook. He doesn't grade the homework though. The quizzes are 6-8 points each day of class. The tests are a little harder so you should study to be prepared. The lectures are sorta boring. But the notes he gives are helpful for the homework. The exam was kinda difficult too.

A very helpful teacher who is truly interested in your success in the class. Uses various examples of problems during class so there aren't any surprises on the tests. Daily quizzes to boost your grade and reinforce the material. An overall great teacher.

I found him very hard to listen to in leacture and he often was hard to follow. The work was pretty easy for the most part but the tests are what hurt. The entire class is based on test and the quizzes you take evryday. If you dont like having a quiz everyday dont take this class.

The best teacher for calculus! He is so helpful! You have quizzes once or twice a week, but they are really easy (right from the homework problems). The tests are really easy too! Also, the best part is that the final exam has the exact same questions as the previous tests (which he lets you keep!) Strongly recommend him!!!!!

Comment:
I'm not sure if all of his classes are SLA, but mine was. Daily quizes are a bad idea: if you don't understand the homework, you need to waste another hour in SLA just to ask one or two questions. Linnen teaches at a slower rate, which some people like, but his quizes and exams are so much more difficult than other math teachers, don't take his cla
