Reviews of professor Philip Bretz

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Overall a very good professor. He was very chill on grading and wouldn't take points off for minor algebraic mistakes. Also, he was very detailed when working through example problems, and he covered pretty much everything that would be on the test. His quizzes were very easy.

Professor Bretz is one of the best math professors I've ever had, he genuinely cares about his students and wants them to succeed. He is very reachable, responds to mail fast, and agrees to help students almost immediately when help is needed. The class relies heavily on test grades, but easy weekly quizzes are grade boosters.

Overall good class, but if you have struggled with math (like me) then pay attention. There is kinda a lot of work and was an ok class and you have to buy an online subscription for the class as well. Teaching wise he was good, but due to covid it was harder to be taught which isn't his fault.

Mr. Bretz is where the math depart. got things right. He teaches out of the textbook, but he takes time to explain everything in detail and work out examples. This is a coordinated course(Learning checks, HW, and tests are standard throughout all MATH1914 classes). Weekly quizzes were easy grade boosters. He is always willing to help out students.
