Dr. Nyman only went over homework in class then assigned more without explanation. Had to use YouTube and Kahn Academy to get a good grade. Possible to get a good grade, but would not recommend.

Jokes are bad, but he's a lot of fun. Very understanding of college life and attendance. doesn't teach out of the book much, but is fairly easy to follow regardless. Must understand the course to do well.

You can tell he likes to teach and likes the students, but it is just so hard to understand him and keep on track. He can't teach the materials properly. He is a nice enough guy, but I personally think he needs to retire.

Comment:
My favorite class last term, but probably because all my other ones sucked. Worst jokes ever but he's a nice guy. Teaching style is a little scattered and sometimes hard to follow but if you go in for help he will teach it to you until you understand. I wouldn't worry to much except for the third test. It sucks.

HATE math, LOVED this class. He actually taught it in a way that I was successful in. I think I got my highest grade ever for a math class by taking his stats class. Plus, he's a great guy.

Tells random anecdotes. Pay attention to his actual lecture, read the book and do the homework and plus some. Ask for help if you need it, he will help you better one-on-one. Tests are fairly easy.

He does a good job of explaining things and will definitely help you out if you need it. You'll eventually get used to the lame jokes and realize how awesome he is.
