Dr. Hoover comes off as mean at the beginning but he is mainly just being loud to scare off the bums. After you get into the flow of the class he is a great teacher with entertaining lectures and I would recommend Dr. Hoover to anyone who actually wants to learn!

Loved him! Great class, very easy if you take the time to study the powerpoints and work the problems out (which he does in class). Gives out study guides that are very similar to the exams. Extremely helpful teacher, makes the class interesting, and he's pretty funny! Wish he was teaching 111!

I had to take Econ110 a second time, and I chose a different teacher and I am so glad I did. Great class. He tries to make the class interesting, he gives you powerpoints, and he works problems out in class. If you read the material and take good notes you can make an A.

Dull material and class, however he does what he can to liven the class up. He is a good teacher of a dull subject. His tests are not hard if you study and GO TO CLASS. Good teacher. Easy to talk to.

Good class. Gives old exams and homework questions that end up on the exam also. Makes answer keys of student answers. If you don't remember your math or economics, you will suffer in this class. He's a smart ass but knows what he's doing. Doesn't like people late or using cell phones.

Horrible teacher. Makes the class more difficult that it is. Does NOT do any problems is class "AT ALL", his entire exam is nothing but Problems. Unfair grading. Uses a book that does not provide a single example on problems. Very Lazy expects the highest standards but does not stick to them himself. Mocks and Insults you if you ask for extra help.

Gary makes EC 110 the easiest and most interesting class that it possibly can be by explaining each subject clearly, offering TONS of extra help outside of class, and telling a couple of jokes during each lecture to keep you interested. I am so glad I had him as my Econ professor, I wouldn't have passed otherwise.

He is SO easy! Go to class, take notes, study the notes and homework, and you'll ace all the tests. Possible grade of 110/100 on each test. Reads students' emails before class. Put simply...he's hilarious and a fantastic professor. Take him! P.s. test questions are often the same as homework questions, homework is 10% of grade, tests are 90%.

Get teacher easy to understand and makes it easy to learn. Would recommend for any class you can get him for!

If you can get into his class, you should do it. He's no-nonsense but if you are respectful to him he will be respectful to you. He makes a dificult subject as simple and interesting as possible and gives very helpful and energetic lectures. A great teacher! UA is lucky to have him.
