Reviews of professor Mercer Bridges

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
Probably the best math professor in all of UIC! It's clear that by the way he looks that you're obviously going to have a fun time. He tells hilarious jokes and explains the math in an easy way.

Overall a good professour for calc 2, he really makes sure you've mastered the concept by making you work on problems throughout the lecture on worksheets that he makes. His exams are easier than the assigned hw and problems given in class (which are somewhat challenging), so ultimately those are the best resources for doing well.

He literally just goes over the topic to the class. Sometimes, he dismisses class early. Calculus isn't really easy but if you ask him for help, he starts to use analogies and explains in a funny way. Sometimes, it makes sense. Pretty good professor

Classes started off rough but he was willing to help out. He's really funny and that really helps uplift a class before an exam. He even makes sure to give students 1 on 1 time during office hours for help. Don't sleep on him.

You get more of a friend vibe than a professor vibe from this man. He made me feel extremely comfortable learning calc, whether it was in class or in office hours. His smile lights up the room and he really engages his students. It's the best experience I've ever had in a math class!!

He does not teach at all. He gives us lecture worksheets and then expects us to do it without going over the materials first. The only reason I have an A in this class is because I've taken calculus before. I learned more from my TA then I did from him. If you ever have the option, do no take him.
