Exam is tough and bad teaching style. If you want to earn an A dont take him

Be prepared for random attendance checks! I kid you not the exams did not resemble anything he gave us in class. I have never left a review for a professor before but I would like to spread awareness in hopes that students will save their GPA and pick another professor or just do Pierce College online. So many in his winter course dropped or failed

Exams are exactly like the notes with minor differences, the only issue is that you have to study the entire notes because he gives no study guide, so really make sure you know what you are doing. He responds pretty fast to emails and has one-on-one office hours. Will work out questions with you in office hours.

Best math professor. He gives out extra credit quizzes. If you don't understand something he is more than willing to help you. This class is difficult but he really provides a lot of resources in order to pass his class. Homework's may be time consuming but if he sees that the topic was not covered enough in lecture he will push back the due date.

Excellent professor. Provides a large amount of his own notes for you to follow along and fill in. Uses desmos to help visualize problems. Follows his study guides for his exams and is VERY clear on what will be on the exams. He will also warn the class on bad habits that will reduce points on the exam so follow directions and don't miss class.

Exam doesn't reflect HW and lectures. Give lots of HW. However, HW is only worth 10% of the grade. Class average is about 40. Most of the students fail. Won't answer your email.

pretty easy course. he's a nice guy, doesn't take attendance. there's only 3 0r 4 quizzes and somewhat weekly homework assignments. and also a final. He explains well and is a nice professor.

Took math150A during the summer and he was great! Caring, respectable, and highly approachable. Do the homework, put in the effort, and no doubt you are capable of getting an A in his class. Definitely recommend

Quality professor! He genuinely wants you to do well. He uses .pdf files for his lectures which are very useful to follow along with. He is a generous grader on exams, meaning partial credit is given. Very accessible outside of class.

Calc 2 is hard by itself but this professor make it x1000 harder. Math department at SMC is awful but hes more worst than that. Hes successful in ruining many students gpa and academic progress.
