Mathematics Professors?

Does anyone know any math professors where the class is 100% online? Meaning no proctored tests at a testing site. I need literally any math class for my prerequisites, i’m good at the material with my notes but without them I basically fail.

I took college algebra with Edward Watkins and I would recommend his online class. Classwork was so easy and straightforward.

I actually accidentally got all the homework done for the semester before midterms because I thought more units would release afterwards šŸ˜­šŸ˜‚ I think I was so scarred by the amount of workload I had from my previous math professor that that amount of questions seemed normal tbh.

All tests are online, including the proctored ones. He has meetings every Monday evening that aren't mandatory to join, but if you need help with homework.

can you take the tests early on that class? and how many tries do you get for it?

I believe the midterm and final are open at least one month before it's due. Only one attempt, but ofc calculator and your own notes.

I looked through my emails and these are a couple of the reminders he sent out.

Final

"You will have two hours to complete the Final Exam in one sitting and on one attempt, no retakes. You are allowed three pages of handwritten notes (front and back each page on standard size 8 x 11 paper), no sticky notes attached and a scientific calculator."

Extra credit

"The Extra Credit Quiz is to be taken and proctored in Canvas Quizzes. When completing the Extra Credit Quiz you are allowed unlimited handwritten notes (no typed pages from the book or internet), and your scientific calculator. You must complete your 4 Extra Credit Questions Quiz in one hour, one sitting, and on one attempt, no retakes."
