Reviews of professor M J Musselman

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I failed math 31 when I first took it and when I took it with professor Musselman I passed with an A. His lectures are set for anyone to understand and he goes through the steps carefully. He has many easy ways to solve the hardest math problems.

Professor Musselman is one of the best teachers I've had so far. He explains all the chapters thoroughly and I'm able to understand everything. He also has a great method when it comes to using the white board. As makes sure all students have time to write everything before erasing it.

You will teach yourself! Friendly professor but slow grader. You will have to do math everyday to get an A. Exam reviews are great and match with whats on the exam. I came into this class not being able to factor and left it with a solid understanding of precalc. The course outline is solid and will help you get a great foundation of math.

I am horrible at math and have failed math classes on multiple accounts. Not only did I excel but I actually enjoyed this class and the material. There is a fair amount of homework, but only is overwhelming if you procrastinate it. He gives plenty of time before due dates and is generous with extensions. The tests are very straight forward.

Finally, I reached the final boss! (Math 21C) The first of SMC's new hybrid online/on ground classes. Math has always been my Achilles' Heel. (failed Math 31 TWICE) He genuinely wants you to succeed in math and goes out of his way to help you improve. Provides his own math videos & notes. He holds a Masters in Math from UCLA. I highly recommend!

His lectures are clear and simple for anyone to understand. Grading is based on home work and exams. I would take him again if he taught higher math.

You Must Show Up To Class, Do The Homework (Textbook + Access Code Required), and Study! Before Each Test If You Wish To Pass His Class. Professor Musselman Is On Time, Caring (Funny/ Real At Times), And Passionate About Math In His Lectures. Ask Questions & Take Notes. His Teaching Is Easy To Follow Through And Clear. Take Him 100% One Of The Best

I love professor Musselman, he gives so many opportunities, we had exam retakes and we had the whole semester to complete the late homework. he was a tough grader but the exam were easy, my tip is to always  do the exam reviews because they are so much like the actual exams.

Professor Musselman is a really good and caring teacher. His lectures was a bit heavy but if you read the text book pages that he posts and do the home works, you can understand the material better. The questions on his exam was straight from the practice exams. My best tip for you is to do ALL of the practice exams!
