Reviews of professor James Herring

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Clear, concise thinking during notes. He's one of those that doesn't just read from the book, but makes his own notes and writes them with you and talks through it. Accessible, caring, fair grader. Honestly? One of the best high-level Math professors at UH. Teaches for UNDERSTANDING. He'll set you up for future success if you plan to major in NSM.

Dr. Herring is hands down the worst math professor ever. All he talks about in his lectures are theorems and proofs. His exams are hard and unclear. I doubt he has taught a class before because he makes math boring and a snoozefest. Wouldn't ever take him again!

The worst professor. His lectures are boring and repitetive and his matlab assignments lack proper instruction

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
There are book work and a Matlab assignment every week but it's the best way to learn material for the midterms. Also practice exams. He is easily accessible outside of class and usually responds to emails quickly and is willing to work with you if you have questions or concerns about your grade.

- Good professor overall - Puts notes on BB (really helpful) - 30%HW, 20% midterms (2) and 30 % Final - If you are having trouble with content watch 3B1B or KA (for visualizing concepts) - Pro-tip for HW: Slader - Spend ample amount of time looking at notes/examples before tests
