He's not that bad. His grading isn't fair but if you have a question he'll keep going through it until you understand it. He cares if you pass or not.

Comment:
DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. He is a HORRIBLE professor. You DO NOT learn anything! This class is a waste of time and he continuously talks about unrelated topics like skiing. He encourages you to teach yourself and the person sitting next to you. His grading is unfair and it's not even worth studying for.

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS... you don't use the book, it's a waste of time, and you'll drive yourself crazy because he comes up with his theories on how to solve these problems.. he says they "come from outerspace" or he thought of it one night in his sleep, he makes things that are simple extremely confusing, i would avoid this class

Comment:
Two tests, one final. Same exact test all three times with different #'s. Only counts final, though. You can leave class right after attendance, he doesn't care. Don't bother buying the book, you will not use it. He teaches from his own theories. Complicates things when they're not. Just simplify stuff for yourself and you'll be fine.

Comment:
talks about skiing and swimming, he actually attempted to teach a student how to swim in the first class. Every class he talks about the exact same thing as the 1st class, and he repeats his stories. Claims that aliens put certain math solutions and equations in his head while hes sleeping. Really nice guy, not worth taking, practically deaf.

Comment:
Isn't worth the tutition we pay for at Pace. He talks about his passion for skiing and how he met his wife; and how he taught his granddaughter to ski.He looks like he is about to fall apart thats how old he is. Don't even purchase a textbook b/c he doesnt assign homework. Just gives u handouts that are probably from the 1970's. Avoid at all costs!

Comment:
He discusses skining and thinks that math deals with skining discusses how he taught his granddaughter how to ski because of clarity by understanding her. Old and should retire he isnt worth the tuition money that we pay for at Pace University. Don't talk him because you won't learn and probably won't do so great. He bases ur grade on the final.

Greenfest is pretty cool. I liked his stories and how he related it to math. I would take him again.

Comment:
The class was supposed to be remedial. He did well enough teaching the basics, but he began getting incomprehensible towards the middle of the semester. Claims you can add any number to a problem to get answers. Boasts about his own genius. Talks to aliens. I'm serious. This all took place in class. Wouldn't recommend him if you need help with math

GREAT person, HORRIBLE professor. all that counts is your final grade. as long as you know the material by the end of the semester, you'll be fine. however, he does not know how to teach. he taught from his own notes that werent all that clear (nobody purchased the book). thinks skiing is related to math. lol i'd say it's an easy B

He makes you think youll get a good grade, but you wont. Also dont even bother going to all his classes, because its not like hes going to give you more consideration on your grade. Dont be fooled like I was, just because hes a nice old man.

Very Helpful, he is a great little old man that cares about his students and wants to see them succeed...I am way less than perfect in math, and he helped me immensely...Some times a bit unclear, but he has no problems with making it clear. He's little old man funny...and teaches math in the simplest way...He great...take him..definitely

He is okay..You really do need to do the review sheets he gives in class if you want to pass his class. He is unclear about certain things..sometimes he tries to give examples but they only confuse you more. But if u talk to him he will tell u what u need to do to get an A.

He is unclear and unhelpful. Apart from his mean, sarcastic comments, he does not know how to explain his subject. Run far away from him if you are anything less than perfect in math.
