Reviews of professor John Watterlond

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I really enjoyed Professor Watterlond's class. He really went through the content quickly, but he would always stop and answer questions. You're given two exams + the final (and some reading and written homework) so you definitely have to study! Fast-paced so showing up every day is a must. Super understanding and will help w/schedule conflicts!

He is a patient, caring, humorous professor! He will answer every question clearly, reply every email with clear explanation. His math lecture usually contains lots of things, but if you pay attention in the class(especially the ones before the exams),it will make you actually learn from it, and pass the class with an A. I love his class very much!

I failed Calc 3 two times... I didn't understand the material and was frustrated because I needed to pass it for my major. Dr. Watterlond helped me so much I actually got an A in the class and understood the material so well. He is such a great teacher and cares so much. Definitely recommend taking him if you can. Great personality too!!!

Pay attention to the lectures and do the homework, he jus checks for completion not correct answers.  Test make up most of the grade but he gives you a study guide before hand.

The best professor I've ever had hands down! He's a pretty funny guy who really cares about his students. Never had a STEM professor give and allow feedback as he did. Go to office hours, great help! Highly recommend!

I would continue taking Dr. W if I could. Explains things clearly, not afraid to explain again if asked. Thorough notes & tests are what he says they will be, no tricks. Highly recommend if you have the chance. Only negative about his class is the hw through Pearson. P.S. I went through the semester not using the textbook so it's possible.

He has his Dr. degree in math. As a person he seems cool, he does try to help u get a better grade by not grading severely but honestly i dont think teaching is his calling. Didnt want to ask a question in fear he would make me look dumb. class was 2 hours long he didnt give no break or early dismissal EVER! If u know trig already youll pass.

(Calc. II) Prof. Watterlond is a laid-back and chill dude. He's accessible outside of class. Provides good feedback, responds quickly to emails, and has office hours daily. He works out examples step by step, and is willing to go back if you're confused. Homework problems are well selected with the purpose to help students learn the material.

Honestly the best math teacher I have ever had, he really takes his time making sure you understand what he is teaching. He plans out all of his classes and truly cares if you are doing well in the class and will help you pass if you are struggling. Attendance is not mandatory but you will miss a lot of material if you do not go.
