He is the biggest dumbass I know. This is the beginning of the year and we've only had one assignment (our first test is this next week) and I got a 17/25 because I didn't "draw a model" with the proof for the law of cosines or explain what I did, when there is a gigantic triangle that is labeled at the top of the damn paper and the question right before that asked to explain each step of the proof in detail. What he did was he gave us the proof for cos(b) and then asked for the explanation for each step, then had us do the proof for cos(a) and cos(c). Apparently he wanted the exact same explanation for each of the three things. Also, I learned all of this he's teaching in seventh grade pre-algebra, so this class is a complete waste of three hours of each week I have to sit through his lectures. He tells people they are making stuff up and won't answer questions in class in order to keep students from "getting confused." He basically tells us the history of math with the occasional pythagorean theorem reference. DO NOT take him.
