In the class that I took with him you would teach yourself and he was there to help. The reason I had a problem with this was because its a high level math class and personally I dont think teaching myself calculus is easy.

Comment:
The second calculus in itself is rather difficult, but Mr. Ogle made the class somewhat more enjoyable. He has a great sense of humor and makes the class feel laid-back. I'd take it him again, but luckily this was my last calculus :) Ever.

I think hes a great teacher. He makes jokes and cracks everyone up in class. He has a good time in class and does a good job teaching the material even though its boring.

Comment:
My biggest issue with this class was he grades homework, like selects randomly questions he is going to correct for each homework assignment out of the book, usually consisting of 20+ problems, felt like he didnt understand how to explain the material in the best possible way, my high school teacher was a better teacher

Comment:
He told the class that we could work together on homework and then did not accept homework from a few people in class because they were "cheating" off each other. He didn't really grade homework, but he was picky on his test. Very boring instructor. Doesn't really care if you do well or not.

Horrible teacher. I failed all 3 tests, even with a tutor. Went to office hours all the time and he never helped. Ended up with a B+ solely because I spent a total of 27 hours in the library teaching myself for the final. Other 113 classes with different professors are EASY. but do NOT take him

Without a doubt, one of the most useless teachers I have ever had in my entire life. He can't explain the material at all. If you aren't just crazy about math and solving problems, do NOT take this class. PLEASE.

Not a lot of people liked him, but he was one of my favorites. He broke everything down step by step which made it easy to understand.

With out a doubt the hardest and most useless teacher I have ever had!!!! Covers material way to fast, doesn't care about his students can not explain anything better than a 5 year old could to a group of kids. I know have to retake this class because he is a horrible teacher that needs to quit. AVOID at all cost if you dont want to retake theclass

Great teacher. He does go over material way too fast, making it hard to comprehend at times. But, he is a caring professor who will help you in any way that he can. The homework assignments where easy to complete on web assign via blackboard. also, the material at the first of the semester is easy, but becomes increasingly harder.

This class seems easy at first but after the first but then gets very hard. Attendance isn't mandatory but you do have a quiz everyday. I think just about everybody in my class disliked him and I am pretty sure he had to bump grades at the end of the semester because so many people were failing. He is by far the worst math teacher I've ever had

Ogle was really hard. You have a quiz every class no matter what. He moves very quickly and really does not care if you understand the material or not. I am currently taking Math 119 over with a new teacher and can really see now what a horrible teacher he is.

This class seemed to be easy at first but after studying for hours and taking the test, never could do well. His teaching methods were easy to understand but it seems like his test were always a lot more difficult than what was taught. Doing the homework helps but if you are good in algebra than it would be an ok class but if you are bad than AVOID

I really liked his class. He made things really clear most of the time. The only homework is some worksheets at the beginning of the semester and online homework for each chapter. His tests aren't hard if you do the online quizes and he gives partial credit if you show your work.

Comment:
This guy is smart, but is NOT a teacher. When I went to his office hours, he seemed annoyed that I had interrupted his dart game. The only reason I got a B in this class is because EVERYONE, including me, was failing, so he boosted grades at the last minute to make himself look better. Do not take him!
