Comment:
Dr. Hartfield is easily one of the best teachers I have ever had. Others will say he is hard, but that's only because he expects you to put in the effort. Do not take this class if you aren't willing to work for it, but if you are then I don't think there's anyone better. His office hours are very helpful, and he really cares about his students.

Comment:
His methods of teaching are beyond outdated and old. Hes really better off being a comedian since he does know how to crack a joke here and there. He needs to chill and be WAYYY easier on his students. He is terrible at teaching and grading. He should not be teaching here. Hes ruining students lives. I wouldnt for a second recommend his class!!!

He fails to teach effectively and makes math much harder than it needs to be. He also assigns way too many problems that dont even show up on the exam. The exams are near impossible to do well and problems that show up are highly unpredictable. Do not take him!!

Where do I start? One of the best professors I've had at mercer. Also the toughest. Made me be stronger in the long run. I have taken him for Calc 2 and Abstract mathematics (yes, I did). Very intense coursework but the lectures are amazing. No one can teach math like this man can. His class does require a lot of E-F-F-O-R-T.

Dr. Hartfield is an amazing professor. Calc 2 is difficult. His grading is fair, he drops lowest test grade, and will change weight of grade depending on your performance. However difficult the class is, his personality makes it worth it. I took him for a 9 am and he kept me awake the entire time. If you want to learn the material take him.

Dr. Hartifield is an excellent teacher. He will go out of his way to help explain things more clearly especially during his office hours. The man is hilarious during class. The guy has his own poster of his famous sayings on his office door. My biggest complaint is that his test are EXTREMELY long and hard. He also has a short time limit for tests.

Dr. Hartfield is a great math teacher. He explains the material extremely well. His tests, however, are VERY difficult. Be careful taking his class unless you already have a lot of experience taking college classes: he isn't good for you if you are a freshman. He is always willing to help you, but you have to work very hard to pass.

Dr. Hartfield gets bad feedback, but honestly his class was not that hard. The course concepts were hard, but Dr. Hartfield always holds office hours and will definitely help you. The tests were long, if you are not willing to put in the effort and don't want to study, do not take this professor. Overall, he is a great man and taught me a lot.

Huge tests but he puts answer keys after the test in the library, so you can always check what exactly you did wrong on the test. He has lots of office hours and teaches the material well! Make sure you read the book and make study groups to practice the material.

Taken for summer credit. He's not employed to hold your hand through college and give you a passing grade. He's upfront with how hard he's going to be, and he follows through with his word. Yet, he loves mathematics and will teach you all he can if you want to learn. I'm trying to shuffle my schedule now for Spring to take him for MAT 192.

Buckle up. This man is a legend for his sayings alone. Might compile them into a book and sell it. With no grades aside from the exams, start studying for them yesterday. They will drain you mentally and physically quicker than the Macon heat. I averaged a 70 all semester but pulled out a B due to his weighting system. He's a lovable challenge.

Great professor. My only complaint is he is not willing to work with you even if you have a medical reason. I was out of class for a month due to a concussion. I was only given one day to prepare for an exam on information I had never seen. He was not willing to work with me at all.

KENDRICK. What a man. He's a hilarious guy with a dry sense of humor and a ridiculous set of expectations. Dr. Hartfield will tear you down in the classroom and in the grade book, but if you want to learn Calculus and aren't afraid of a challenge go for it. He's a professor I'll never forget and I'm thankful to have taken his class.

Tricky Tricky Dr. Hartfield! This man will make you work for every point you get on every test you take, but if you want to learn Calc 2 the right way and never struggle again, I would recommend him.

Easily and absolutely both one of the best and most difficult professors at Mercer University. Great man, he will help you if you go to office hours. Exams are longs, you will do well IF you know the material like its the only thing you do.

Awful professor. He'd come out better being a comedian because that seems to be the only thing he's good at.

Hartfield is an awesome teacher! Attendance affects your grade! He really takes his time in explaining the material. He loves to crack jokes which keeps the lectures interesting. Hes a hard grader only because he wants you to fully understand topics. He puts answer keys for old tests in the library which makes for a great study guide for the final.

If you pay attention, do the homework, and study properly for the tests you will pass his class. He's always willing to offer help during his office hours, so be proactive with homework, and then go get help if you need it. He wants his students to understand the material, not just memorize it. He lessons are mainly examples, including web assign.

Comment:
Class is structures in a way that 80% of the lesson is auditory. being an auditory learner is key to his teaching style. Grading is very strict and tests are usually more than double the work of most other classes, but he lets you know what he expects. He jokes around a lot in class which is fun but makes his lectures harder to follow sometimes.
