The tests are pretty difficult but the situational problems, assignments, and quizzes are decently easy. Allows memory aids on tests, but only for regular students (not enriched). Be sure to take clear notes and listen in class. For some enriched tests, you will not be permitted to use a calculator for part of it.

The class was easy as long as you paid attention. Good note-taking is especially important to succeed. Good at teaching overall but can sometimes be insensitive to struggling students.

He's a tough grader, but fair, and he will help you to the best of his ability if you ask for it. He is very clear when teaching. My only criticism is that he is often absent during tests (although it is justified since he is very involved with the school board and teacher union). Also his remediation days sometimes clash with his game sessions.
