Super smart guy and passionate teacher. He'll work with you if you put in the work and are serious about learning and doing well in the class.

James was the bomb! The class can be difficult but it's an appropriate amount of work for a five credit hour class, you'll get out of it what you put in. James is committed to helping his students who reach out to him and is very available for questions and help. He's also very quirky and fun!

This class is difficult, and you really need to go to as many office hours as you can to get a good grade. As a TA, James was great!! He expected a lot out of us, but was encouraging for the most part. He took a bit of time to grade our weekly homeworks, but he was always very busy. Overall, a great guy and very helpful.

Excellent teacher and not your average math professor. I am by no means a math person and was scared about this class. He keeps lectures lively, and his office hours are great as well to go work with other students in the class. 10/10 would take again!

James was a great TA! He was always willing to help us with our homework (we needed a lot of help lol). Sometimes he didnt know the answers to stuff, but he always tried his best. He is a tough grader when he grades the homework, so make sure that you are extremely detailed in your responses.

He is a truly wonderful and caring professor who is passionate about teaching. He said that 1148 is his favorite class to teach because of the different math backgrounds student come from, and you can tell. He color codes the math problems and breaks them down into super simple steps. I really loved his class and cannot recommend him enough!

Great professor! College Algebra is not easy but he made it a class that I looked forward to. The course moves fast and the quizzes can get tricky. Make sure you attend office hours and any review sessions for super useful feedback and tips.

The class was easy and this professor was very helpful! All of the notes taken in lecture were posted on Carmen which made it super easy to follow along. He stops and answers questions when needed. Overall recommend!

I felt he went very fast during the lecture. It was too rushed in my opinion. I also didn't understand his notes. He wrote all his notes by hand and sometimes didn't understand what he was writing. He was an okay professor.
