Reviews of professor Brett Herren

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Professor Herren was a very easy and helpful professor, however, he would go on long explanations for the simple questions. He reminds students that they can always ask for help. Attendance is mandatory and part of your grade, as for absences, I'm not sure if you can make them up and during my semester with him, he never offered extra credit.

This was a very challenging class, be prepare to dedicate at least 10-12 hours a week just on homework. There are 4 exams and a comprehensive final. The final due a week after the 4th exam, crazy! Also, be prepared to use respondus lockdown browser with a webcam! so unnecessary. Overall, if you struggle with math you will not get a B o A.

Professor Herren is the sweetest person you will ever meet. Unlike other teachers, he respects his students and wants to help them learn in the best possible way. He gives out lecture homework and then weekend homework, but as long as you stay on top of it you'll pass. Also, the homework he gives out is super easy (and I'm not even good at math!).

He truly cares about you understanding and passing the class. By far the best math teacher I have ever had.

Since I had Professor Herren during Tue and Thurs, there were lecture and homework assignments everyday. The workload is heavy for me since the homework consisted of 5-10 ques (lvl of difficulty is different for everyone), but for me, it was difficult. I went to his office hours and he was super helpful, so definitely recommend! Retake on exams!!

I would take Prof. Herren again. If u dont like math youll love his class bc he makes everything so easy to understand. Theres weekly hw, 3 exams, & 5 problems of the week seems like a lot but it really isnt. YouTube videos to help if u miss class but I recommend attending class as he takes attendance. Extremely helpful. Available outside class

I took Prof. Herren over the summer thinking I would have a hard time learning the material virtually. This wasn't the case however as he was very helpful with the examples he provided on the homework and practice exams he would provide as review, his exams consisted of questions that had already been seen on the HW/practice exams; 3 exams, 1 Final

Really good teacher. He wants students to pass but he knows the reality that math is difficult. He has his homework set up to where you can do homework/quizzes/practice exam unlimited times to completely master the material plus lecture r on YouTube. An A is possible if you put in the time. Cons: inconsistent roll call & none of the above on tests

If you don't like math and have trouble Professor Herren would be perfect. He has homework online and in person but is always helpful with any question you have and office hours are great too. Best professor I've had yet!
