Oakton Community College / B / Paul Boisvert

Presentation of material was boring and unimaginative. Speaks in a monotone most of the time. In 16 weeks, only one real-world example of calculus was given (even though there are many). Presented concepts and solved problems using white chalk only; should have used colored chalk to emphasize important ideas. Book was poor (on many occasions, he complained about the way the topics were presented in the book). Lots of homework including problems that you will not be able to do because they are for calc II students! Gave students partial credit on exams. Always willing to help students (but poor presentation of the material outweighs his willingness to help students outside of class). Take this course with someone else, preferably someone who is engaging and interesting.
