Sean Gruber MATH115 Expecting an A Anonymous 12/17/2023	He is such an amazing guy. He drops your lowest quiz grade, and the final is only worth 15% of your final grade. Also, he is super understanding and is willing to do anything to make his students' lives easier. One con is that he could sometimes spend an entire class on one or 2 problems. His tests are very similar to his practice tests. The only issue was the final- since it was standardized across all of the math115 classes it was much harder than anything he had ever taught us in class. But he took that into account and made sure the final didn't hurt everyone's grades. I would take this professor if you get the chance. He's such a great guy and really deeply cares about his students.
Sean Gruber MATH141H Expecting a C+ Anonymous 12/15/2023	Dr. G is probably the best educator I have ever had in my life. He truly cares for his students and always is asking the class if they have any questions. Since I was in an honors class, the class size was very small which made it much easier to ask questions and work with people. He does multiple group quizzes which help boost your grade. He is a very understanding guy., so if there are any personal conflicts with assignments, he is very accommodating and open to figure something out. Regarding the classwork itself though, it is a HARD class. Calc 2 here is a very hard class in general since you're introduced into the topics very quickly and with advanced examples. If I didn't have Dr. G as a Professor I would definitely be failing the class. As long as you dedicate A LOT of time to studying, you should score decently on the exams and quizzes. Many other people in this class had high A's and some B's, but I struggle with math so the quizzes and exams were harder in my opinion. If you aren't the strongest math person, I would recommend a regular 141 class just because Dr. G doesn't curve tests. Overall, if Dr. G is an option for any of your classes, TAKE HIM 100%. Genuinely such a great person and would definetly take one of his classes again.

Sean Gruber MATH241H Anonymous 12/11/2023	Dr. G will be the most chill math teacher you'll ever have. I slept in and was 20 minutes late to a quiz and he let me take it with extra time. He explains content really well and is always willing to answer questions. His homework's were not bad and really helped with learning the content. One thing he could do better is help prepare for the tests more. I found his tests pretty easy but others didn't. Highly recommend Dr. G!
Sean Gruber MATH141H Expecting an A+ Anonymous 12/10/2023	Dr. G is one of the best math teachers I have ever had! He genuinely cares that his students do well in class and is willing to spend time in and out of class to ensure this. His teaching style is very active and involves a lot of discussion with other students to understand the intuition behind concepts, a strategy that significantly improves a student's understanding of a topic. He is also incredible at explaining things and will gladly spend time diving deep into a topic. I absolutely recommend taking Dr. G's class!
Sean Gruber Expecting a B+ Anonymous 12/07/2023	Mr. Gruber is a very nice and understanding teacher, he is a fairly good lecturer and he answers students questions when they have any. As an honors course, we had a small class size and class room so it made it a lot more intimate and easier to talk to him. There were a couple times in the class where he made mistakes or explained a concept strangely, but 97% of the time it was good. It is fairly hard to pay attention to him I will admit, and calc 2 isn't super-exciting to begin with.

He takes his time with thorough explanations to the material and tries his best to make sure everyone understands the material. The amount of work is adequate and his exams match the lecture and homework. Take his class!
Sean Gruber MATH213 Expecting an A+ Anonymous 04/17/2019	Mr. G is very helpful! I dread and hate geometry, but his style of teaching made it bearable. Everything is pretty routine in his class, you know what you have to do for the day and you'll get a good grade if you do it. He's also an excellent teacher and great at explaining things in a different way if you didn't understand it. As an added bonus, he has an extremely soothing voice and presence. All around great guy and great teacher, take Mr. G!!
