This was my second time taking Statistics, so I decided to do the support class. What a difference! We spent as much time working together, as he did lecturing, and the work together really helped me learn. His lectures are clear and has lots of great stories. We were like a family, and he sat down with me to go over my tests. Great humor too.

I took Professor Burke for the 6 credit corequisite class. I really enjoyed his mix of the lecture and groupwork we did - we were never bored. Also, the use of technology in class and for testing made the class way easier. He has great stories too - you feel he really understands the students and cares about your success. learned A LOT!

Burke has to be one of the best professors at Norco. His lectures are never boring, and he makes class fun & enjoyable! He gives note packets out which really helps students focus on the lecture. He does care about his students, but he is a no nonsense type of guy! Do the work, and you'll be fine! Burke is for the students!

To be honest the first day of class I felt like dropping it, as I felt completely out of touch with the subject. Professor Burke is a straight forward guy who won't sugar coat things. He teaches a bit different than most but if you're consistent with your study time and pay attention during lectures you'll be fine. All in all he's a great professor

This is a hard class, but with his teaching methods make this class easier to understand. If you want to understand and pass Mat 12 class your should this his class. You have a higher probability to pass the class if you take his class. Also he is very funny.

I believe Professor Burke to be a great teacher. He gives you every opportunity to get a good grade in his class by giving you his power points before the lectures, giving you printed out notes to follow along with and allowing you the write down the many formulas on a piece of paper to use for the test. 3 exams and a final. Along with homework.

Professor Burke is an amazing math 12 (statistics) teacher. He gives you step by step on almost everything you are going to be tested on and he grades quickly so you are never lost with what your grade is. As long as you put effort into this class you WILL pass!! I would definitely recommend taking him!!

Thank god for Mr. Burke! He let me borrow a graphing calculator for the class and encouraged me to stay in class after failing my first exam. His copied notes and class acts made learning so much easier. We took our final last night, and already got our grades. I EARNED my C after three attempts - thank you thank you thank you!

Burke is a pretty cool Professor. He genuinely cares, is always around when we have questions, and has lots of fun trivia and comments relative to statistics. It's a four unit class. Of course, it will take more work. He is accessible and tough. And he just wants to help students succeed.... for those that want to succeed for themselves.

So let me start off by saying that professor Burke is all about his students and their success! Buy far one of the best instructors and his method of teaching goes along way! As in-depth and confusing that statistics is as a subject, professor Burke broke it down in such a way that even the individual with the basics know how could understand it.

Professor Burke is great. He genuinely cares about you doing good in class. He has somewhat of a strict cellphone policy, but if youre there to learn you should be focusing on learning, not texting. He helps relate stats to real life while throwing in some sarcasm and jokes in that make the lecture more enjoyable. I would definitely take him again

This class wasn't easy but professor Burke is amazing. He is super strict but very clear about what he expects up front. It's easy to fall in line if you're respectful and listen. I wish that he was available for my next math class but I think he's transitioning with his schedule. Love him. Put your phone away.

You need to buy the access code online (physical book not required, everything included with code) As long as you maintain an average of 90% on hw, quizzes, and in class work and 85-90% on exams you have a solid chance of an A. Go to every class, HE PROVIDES NOTES!! STUDY THE STUDY GUIDES!! Lectures are full of examples, practice &humor! HES A GEM!

Takes missing class very seriously and isnt afraid to call people out on it. He says to get the textbook but you really dont need it. The class is an easy A if you do the cheat sheets for the midterms and final. He grades class work on effort and his quizzes are take home. He has a bit of a temper when people leave class early

STATS is a hard subject but he is made it easier. There are several important tests including the final. For every test you take, he lets you do a cheat sheet, front&back - EXTREMELY helpful if you write the right info down. Allows group work. GRAPHING CALCULATOR MANDATORY! Seems hard at first but you catch on & isnt so bad. Thank you Prof Burke!

Somewhat of a strict teacher on work and attendance, but has really good lectures that are never boring and gives you realistic accounts of stats in the real world. Highly recommend to get a graphing calculator ASAP in his class. All in all, I really enjoyed his class because it wasnt really easy but not hard as well if you put work in it.

The student below should take Statistics from another Professor like I did to know how hard it is to find a good one like Mr. Burke. Really made the subject understandable, and taught it well, compared to the first two times taking the course. He even taught us after his grandmother died, and let us do the test take home when he was off.

He started out super nice, and then after we reviewed him for the school he became super irritating. He even tried to make changes to the syllabus three weeks before class ended. It was an easy class, you just have to be able to put up with him.

Comment:

I recomend Professor Burke for Statistics because he explains the problems well (dumbs it down for me) wants to help you pass and will get back to you right away in e-mails. The only thing is he hates people talking (in which you shouldn't) therefore don't talk in class or use your cell phone. Pay attention, study and you'll pass.
