Took 11 Pre-AP Math with him. His class makes you get your habits in shape.

Do your homework and ask questions

Do the homework and practice every night. On tests and quizzes he tends to take homework questions from the textbook and change up the numbers. A lot of memorization is required, and he's not the best at helping or providing accommodations.

Pay attention

If you're taking Academic/University level math, you should be fine if you do the work that you don't understand and skim over the homework that you do. If you are in Pre-AP though, the lessons are still high-quality but you will find yourself worked to the limit, tortured with work (if you love math, it's fine). Make sure to do as many practice sets (for Pre-AP) as possible, since it can help boost your mark at the end of the year. For both Academic/University and Pre-AP courses, email the teacher any and all questions from the homework you don't understand (he'll take up all of them, and it's very useful)
