Comment:
You learn absolutely nothing useful in this class. Not to mention, he is rude to students. He takes attendance very seriously, once a few people left in the middle of class and he crumpled up the attendance sheet and passed around a new one.

Easy A if you go to class and print out the entire 900 page manuscript he suggests; otherwise he is impossible to understand. Learned nothing from the class - just used it as a GPA booster.

Absolutely horrible and incomprehensible. Asked him what problems he assigned yesterday, and he said he could not remember. DO NOT TAKE.

Comment:
Nice and very smart man but obviously would prefer his research. Not well prepared. Forgets what he taught before and either reteaches or does not teach a necessary prior topic. Understood 10% to 60% of each lecture. Only 1 assignment given. No way to practice. No final. Got an A -- don't see why. Learned very little.

Quite literally the worst professor I've ever had at UNCC. You will have no idea what your grade is until it's posted online. Did not learn anything. Take only if you want an easy A/B.

Comment:
He had no lesson plan, and jumped from topic to topic without telling you. I failed this class becasue i had no idea what he was talking about, i am taking the same class this semester with a different professor and am doing well in it. The only people that passed were the ones that went to his office everyday and asked questions for hours a day

Comment:
I could careless that he is a cross dressor, and its obvious that he know the material well. However he cannot teach and since the college stopped letting him give take home tests the class is harder, but if you print off his manuscript and put it in your notebook you can use it on his test. You will learn almost nothing, but passing is pretty easy

You will have no idea what grade you get until the day you get your final grade. Basically no one in class understood what was going on. The only reason anyone passed the class was because they printed off the "Manuscript" and used it for test and every single homework. It was almost impossible to understand anything this professor taught in class.

Scourge of the earth. As of Spring 2010, tests are in class, but people use notes and stuff and he doesn't A) notice or B) care. You will not learn a thing. He should not be teaching. Seriously, why does he still have his job? If you do take him for this class - don't even bother getting the book. You will NEVER use it.

Very interesting teacher. I have had him for three classes now and have learned to understand what he is saying. If you just watch what he is doing on the board and you have some knowledge of math, then you will follow along fine.

I don't know why people are complaining--- he is intersting in his own right but an extremely smart person who just sees things so much dif. than the rest of us- so it is hard for him to explain. BUT- go and put in some effort and you will get a good grade.

Comment:
Very lazy. Told us on day 1 that he didn't care about the class 'cause he was working on some book. Never gave us a syllabus, didn't get ANY grades back until the class was 80% done, and doesn't make lesson plans. Random topics. Fortunately, since he's such a bad teacher all exams are take home. Whole class is group work. Easy A, Bad teacher.

Comment:
Rothe is a very strange man. He does know Geometry well but doesn't know how to begin teaching it. Extremely disorganized. Just covers random topics whether students are prepared for them or not. Several times he came to class and announced that he didn't know what to teach us that day. Fortunately all exams, even the final, are take home.

Rothe is an easy grader. If you just want a B in a class take him. You won't learn a thing in any of his classes but you will pass easily. I've taken him for 3 classes and got B's in all of them and I didn't put in any effort. Take him if you want to pass a math class. Just a side note you will be shocked at what he looks like...lol.

Comment:
While they aren't offering this class in the math department anymore I felt some words were necessary for this "man". Dr. Rothe is the embodiment of what is wrong with the math department at UNCC. Unhelpful, arrogant, limited knowledge of subject, and totally incomprehensible. In short, don't take Rothe for ANYTHING!
