Comment:
Make sure you go to his office hours. He gives the same amount of take-home tests (75 points) as in-class exams (100 points). He will usually give you the answers to questions you have on the take-home and explain it thoroughly. His in-class exam topics are given beforehand, but he focuses on some more than others. Super funny guy. Would takeagain

Comment:
I took him at 8:30 am my first semester freshman year. The first day is a nightmare. I think he teaches hard stuff you wont see later just to scare people off. After that the class is easy. Just go and take notes and do the homework and you'll be fine. He makes you feel like an idiot a lot of times but he tells you what's on the tests. It's not bad

He is awesome! Tests can be tricky, but he tells you what to study before hand, so it's not bad. Funny guy and he's always there to help.

He is a good teacher, very helpful, just very fast. You must do alot of studying by yourself, other than that class always entertains me even if it is at 8:30 am! Other than that its math, you got to pay attention or you fall back, but the guy is great and always willing to help.

Comment:
I just started this class with the professor and can see already that he doesn't wait for anyone. He moves extremely fast. If you have not had any pre-calc training like I have, it will be helpful to review the chapters of the book on your own to get an understanding. Then everything he explains will begin to make sense.

Class is pretty easy if u've had Calculus b4 like i have...its all the same. only 4 tests worth 10% each...final worth 35% and hand-ins that can be done on the cpu in 10 mins worth %25 which can really boost any1's grades. But besides that, he moves really fast & is very rude. but w/e...i got a B so who cares

he was the rudest teacher i ever had.. i noticed that he singled people out in class to criticize (and no, not me). book isn't necessary and there was a lot of useless information during class.

He's a cool guy, but does not know how to grade papers. He'll give you a C but not mark anything off the entire thing. It's frustrating sometimes, but I'd still reccomend him. He's really funny and nice.

Two words: Tough love. You really learn things in this guy's class, and you get through all the material. His test format was: Outline, test. When most of the things on the outline are on the test. The test required about 60% memorization and 40% knowledge of material.

LOVE HIM!!! His class is really hard, but if you go to him for extra help, he will help you. Especially on homework, he'll give you all the answers. He also lets you do corrections on tests you don't do well on. The Saccomans are the best math teachers you can get at SHU!

Ugghhhh, I am taking this class now and it sucks. He does explain thoroughly but his tests really suck. When he explain the question, it is not clear. His grading on absences and lates suck. Don't take him or you will hate math.
