Personally, I was in his Algebra II/Trig H class, it was difficult for me in the beginning but if you don't understand, you have to ask questions and make sure you understand the material., You should take the extra time to learn the material because it is heavily used in pre-calculus. The tests have math problems with space at the bottom to solve them, no multiple choice or fill in the blanks. This class moves pretty fast because the fourth quarter is dedicated to trig and all the Algebra II material is covered in three quarters instead of four.

In my experience, this teacher has a very upbeat personality and he makes the class fun. He makes a lot of jokes and he's really fun to talk to. He's good at explaining the material, but sometimes if you ask him too many questions he gets a little frustrated and when he goes around the class sometimes he skips you even when your raising your hand. Otherwise his class is really fun, usually I don't like math classes, but I looked forward to his class because it was so fun, he was really laid back and fun to joke around with. He coaches track so he is not the most available during indoor track/regular track season, but he is usually in his classroom in the morning. Overall he is a really great teacher.
