This class is formatted how all of the other basic NEU math classes are, a quiz usually once a week and then going to the next topic. I found that he got right into teaching and just doing stuff without really explaining, but he seemed like a chill dude. If u took calc in high school & just need to quickly/easily get through it, you should be fine.MATH1341 2026-04-10 18:53:02 +0000 UTC
He amazing, I recommend to take him again!!!!!MATH1151 2025-09-29 21:09:41 +0000 UTC
Professor takes this class as a an opportunity to make kids rue the day they chose this elective. Incredibly hard homework assignments and tests. Lectures are interesting; however, there is so much work. By far my hardest class and my classmates can say the same.PHYS1111 2019-03-25 17:58:38 +0000 UTC
Wonderful teacher who is truly invested in making all of his students interested in the material. He goes above and beyond to excite students about the material and makes class consistently interesting. Also has a fascinating background in astrophysics.AS1111 2017-12-06 17:03:50 +0000 UTC
Get ready to be disrespected every time you step into that class. He treats his students like high schoolers and no support system is there. Teaching wise, he follows the textbook and explains the problems in a way that makes it so hard to follow along. Sometimes cold calls too. So many W's…MATH1341 2026-04-07 17:24:13 +0000 UTC
Deserves a 0/5, horrible professor.MATH1151 2025-06-06 08:52:14 +0000 UTC
This guy has a phd in math just to copy the deans notes up on the board. Do not take this guy he is the worst professor.MATH1341 2026-03-31 02:33:00 +0000 UTC
I genuinely don't understand how or why this man is a teacher. He is unfriendly, does not prepare for lectures, rude, and disrespectful to students when they ask questions, and won't teach anything. I actually unlearned everything I had previously known about calc 1 since taking his class. If you get him, LEAVE.MATH1151 2024-11-25 01:43:48 +0000 UTC
This guy will dunk on your GPA. He makes Calc 1 WAY harder than it has to be. Do not take.MATH1341 2026-03-31 02:27:23 +0000 UTC
Professor Hudon went out of his way to teach the material in a way that was understandable and made a real effort to make sure students were understanding the course. He also jokes around with the class from time and his passion for teaching is apparent in what is otherwise a somewhat bland lecture. Overall great guy and teacherMATH1151 2017-12-15 00:38:32 +0000 UTC
Never in my life failed a class until I took this one. Worst professor.MATH1341 2026-03-30 12:59:15 +0000 UTC
The worst professor you will ever haveMATH1341 2026-01-11 05:31:15 +0000 UTC
RUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN NOWWWWW GOOOOOO SAVE YOURSELVESMATH1341 2025-12-07 23:38:37 +0000 UTC
WORST prof I've ever had. Copies the dean's pre-written notes on the board. Explains simple concepts like rocket science. Rude when you question his grading. Does not put in grades because “it's too tedious.” The one pro is that textbook problems match the weekly quizzes. I was only fine because I took calc in hs. I watched others who didn't fail.MATH1341 2025-12-04 00:37:39 +0000 UTC
Honestly, if he is your teacher, swap classes. Only did practice problems in class and expected you to know everything magically. He was just rude as well, didn't try and help or act like he wanted to be there.MATH1341 2025-12-01 17:25:58 +0000 UTC
