I loved the class! It was absolutely difficult, but grading was very nice and there was plenty of help available. I would definitely recommend the class if you want to see if math is something you want to pursue further.

I absolutely loved the Honors Math sequence! Kerr is an amazing professor and just a nice person. He's really understanding about our workload and is always happy to give an extension or explain the material again. His lectures are goated. They can go fast, but once you get used to it, you realize how cool they are. It's hard, but very rewarding

Kerr is absolutely awesome. The start of the semester is a tough adjustment as he lectures really fast, but you get used to it. He's just a great guy, explains everything really well, is happy to answer questions about and beyond the material, and is understanding about the workload. Homework is very fun. If you like math, you will like his class.

Very fast but rewarding. He always showed us his cat after the zoom meeting.

It truly pains me to see people in classes like 132 and 309 complain about Matt, he wants to teach math, not teach you how to use math so you can get your prereqs out of the way. If you merely want to get math prereqs out of the way, take someone else. If you want someone to open the door to advanced mathematics and teach math, take his class.

Professor Kerr is amazing! He really cares about his students and really wants them to succeed. It was a difficult class but he did everything he could to give me the opportunity to get an A- or higher, even though I struggled a bit. He has a very fast teaching style, which is definitely difficult at first but not something you cannot get used to!

It is a great injustice that Matt Kerr is not rated a 5. When he lectures, it is clear how passionate he is about the subject material . If you take a course with Matt Kerr, if you put in as much effort into the class as he does teaching it, you'll be sure to learn many useful things, don't be afraid to ask questions.

Lectures are fast-paced, but Prof Kerr's energy made them incredibly interesting. While it takes effort to keep up with lectures and homework can be extremely difficult, he is always willing to help outside of class. He is one of the easiest people to talk to and he truly wants every student to do well. My favorite professor!

He gives good lectures and well-organized notes. The exams are way easier than what he taught in his lectures. Also very nice person and definitely accessible after class.

You can clearly tell the dude is very smart and knows exactly what he's talking about, but does not realize at all most people are students learning this stuff for the first time. His lectures are too difficult because he skips steps, goes way too fast, and uses huge terminology/jargon. Reading the textbook is a must if you want to understand.

It's much easier to complain about how hard Kerr is than appreciate how great of a learning experience his class is. If you want to learn math and are willing to put in the time to learn it, the class is an incredible learning experience. His lectures are outstanding. Don't be afraid; many get irritated by the fact that his lectures are difficult.
