He is a nice person. He cant hear. He explains the reasoning behind math formulas and theory but he doesn't give examples. He often makes mistakes when correcting papers. Half of the class doesnt show up becuase he is so boring. DONT TAKE HIM.

Comment:
Funny, tells corny old-guy jokes, but as people said, HE CAN'T HEAR. You literally have to yell to ask questions. Weekly quizzes, 5 q's each, sometimes a freebie question. I felt they were pretty hard. No tests, optional final (which you should do). He curves at the end though, I had an A- or B+ and ended up with a solid A.

Comment:
Lectures are light & easy to follow. He often skips steps during calculations so its often difficult to follow along but if you ask him, he will help you. He is VERY hard of hearing so you have to yell to ask a question. Overall, good class. Keep up with the work and you will do well. He allows exam redos which are very redeeming & helpful!

Comment:
Professor Dweyer is obviously an intelligent man who knows what he's talking about. The only thing is-- he can't hear when students are asking a question, and teaches the derivatives to problems, not how to do them. Tests could be redone for half credit, and there were only two hw assignments. He curved at the end, I went from an a- to a solid A.

Comment:
He's a nice/funny guy and is truly passionate about math. The only downfall..HE CANT HEAR! It becomes very frustrating trying to ask a question. There are only 4 exams and we also had 2 hw assignments. He added a big curve at the end which was nice.

Comment:
Not good at teaching, never available and constanly loose test. misses alot of days also. only good thing abt class is that you can redo all test except final exam. only take this class is you have extra money to make copies of everything and love boring classes were you don't know what in the world he's talking about.

Comment:
The aforementioned response regarding his errors in copying from the book to the board is true. However, Dwyer is more than willing to work with students. To the advantage of the class, he graded extremely liberally. I'd recommend him!

Wrote formula's wrong when teaching. Is pretty much deaf, went off on tangents. Try to find another teacher.

Hard to say what i think about him. Quizzes are pretty tough but he grades fairly easy. Maple assignments are automatic 100%. Easiest math teacher i had so far, but by no means a cake walk. Take him though if need a math class.
