Best professor Ive had so far. He is caring, funny, and knows how to run a smooth, enjoyable class. This class took a lot of studying and work on general, but that is to be expected for the course itself. If you have a scheduling conflict for his course, change it to take him. I couldnt have even imagined a better experience for this class.

I'll warn you now, his tests are hard and you really need to study. You might think "oh, this is a math class, I'm not going to need to study," but no. You will need to study. Still though, he's a super engaging professor and really cares for his students. His lessons are fantastic, he really makes complex stuff super simple. Just don't miss class.

Dr. Warne really cares. His lectures are funny and engaging. He will make time for you outside of class to offer extra help if need be. He's such a good prof that intro calculus became one of my favorite classes. Definitely one of JMU's best professors. 100/10

Take this for calc 1 to 3 if you must!! Best Calc professor I have ever had at JMU. Cares about the students and makes calc very easy to understand. Very understanding and makes every student feel included. Even with covid, he tried learning our names. I was quiet in his class but he still learned by name and always told me have a great day.

Dr. Warne is the best professor I have ever had. He is so engaging and really helps you understand the material. He care so much about his students and really wants you to succeed. As far as the class goes, if you take and review your notes, the quests are easy and we only have 8 hw problems per week.

Dr. Warne was one of the best professors I've ever had. You need to go to class in order to do well and understand the material but he gives an extremely generous amount of allowed absences. His personality makes learning Calc fun and his class enjoyable. He really understands that students struggle with Calc and will go above and beyond to help!

HILARIOUS guy. It would be extremely hard to get bored in his class, as he is very energetic and tells the best stories. When he senses boredom, he makes sure to get rid of it. The class itself is challenging because of the proofs, but it's worth it. I'm actually glad I failed the AP exam just so I got to take this class with Dr. Warne. Take him!!!

A fantastic professor. He really cares about each and every one of his students and genuinely wants them to succeed. He will try anything in his power (literally anything--so funny) to keep your attention in class because he's so passionate about the material and cares about your performance. Beware: his tests are extremely difficult and he knows.

I had Dr. Warne for calc 205 Spring 2019 and he is by far one of the best professors I've ever had. His lectures are amazing and he breaks down the course material in a way that's really easy to understand. I went to office hours at least once a week and he was super nice and helpful. He's very passionate about teaching and deserves a raise.

Dr. Warne really breaks down material and gets you to fully think it through. A lot of proof, but that's important. He's an awesome teacher and person and is always accessible outside of class and willing to help you with anything. Take him if you can!

I gave difficulty 1 because the class is not hard at all if you really concentrate in class and do all your works on time. Dr. Warne is by far the best professor I have came across. He is super knowledgeable and really really helpful. He will make sure that you do well in the class but you have to study and give enough time for this class.

Calculus 3 with Dr. Warne was the best class that I have taken so far at JMU. This class has been able to push me out of my comfort zone with math but not so much where I don't know what I am doing. He is also a really caring and inspirational person so if you have any problems feel free to stop by his office hours and chat!

The only class I actually looked forward to going to thanks to Warne. Super funny and hard to zone out during lectures. However, tons of proofs to memorize and I imagine this class was harder than other profs classes. Though, he always curves and gives partial credit. The class is easier if you took calc in high school.

If you dont like proving math, then I suggest you not take this class (proving 0<1, basic algebraic proofs,log and limit proofs, and fundamental calculus proofs). He admits that more proof is required in his class compared to the other Calc classes. I took BC Calc in high school and still thought this class was VERY difficult. Hes funny though...
