Review #1 / Course: MATH 1550 / Instructor: LITHERLAND R
Dr. Litherland grades pretty fairly and easily but does not give extra points and doesn't drop tests. If you can teach yourself, take him. If not, you'd be better off with someone else.

Professor Litherland was one of the best calculus teachers I've ever had. He explains everything clearly and his tests was straightforward. As long as you come to class and spend some time studying for the test, then you should do fine.

He gives practice tests, and the actual tests are extremely similar to them. His tests were really easy.

Review #6 / Course: MATH 1552 / Instructor: LITHERLAND R
No other grades besides quizes (which are kinda unfair in point value), and tests which are graciously straightforward. He's a nice guy, but can put you to sleep.

Litherland is a nice guy. Sit towards the back. He did some hw problems in class. No online hw, quizzes every week. Not many points in class so do well on tests.
