Reviews of professor Denis Johnson

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
His lectures are very clear, he answers questions clearly, offers extra credit and responds to emails quickly. The class is graded 90% on tests and 10% on homework. The homework is online and easy to get 100% on if you just complete it. Plenty of review material before tests. Ignore the negative feedback, if you study and seek help you will pass.

Everything was pre-recorded and optional "lecture" times are held 2x/week for anyone who has Qs. Content is easy and everything is done through Knewton Alta. Software is finicky and sometimes marks technically correct answers wrong. Free to work ahead as much as you want.

Teaches using the easiest possible examples, then gives you homework and tests with farrr more difficult situations. Some things on the exams were just flat out never taught in class, you're just expected to know it. Doesn't really teach or explain things, just shows you how he does it and moves on. Total brainiac, but no teaching ability. Big nope

Took his class online during the summer and he was very fair about caring towards his students. Even though his notes and examples weren't as close to the level of difficulty as his HW and exams were, he was easily accessible for help and gave the students a big curve at the end of the semester.

This guy goes over the bare minimum for notes and then gives you homework and tests that are nothing like his notes. This guy does not teach at all I regret not dropping this class when I had the chance.

Math is not my best subject, but Professor Johnson explained everything clearly. He always asks if everyone understands the work so you won't fall behind. As long as you study and ask questions in class you will love it.

He's so hands-off to the point where I wouldn't even call it teaching. His exams were all multiple choice so either you got the points or you didn't. Homework didn't even count. The tests were done all on the scantron and he wouldn't even take the time to make all the possible corrections. You weren't even allowed to write on the exam packets.

I have never struggled in a course like this. The professor has no experience in teaching and he makes alot of mistakes! Tests are unbelievably hard and short which means lots of points are deducted for very few mistakes and 90% of the class is exams and final and only 10% for homework. He makes it almost impossible to pass.

Prof Johnson clearly explains all material and is willing to help his students. I haven't been in an algebra class since high school and he made everything simple and easy. If you show up, take notes, pay attention, and do the homework you'll be fine.
