Gandhi is one of the easier Econ 101 professors. However, he is not very good at public speaking and seems to talk in circles around a simple point. Test was easier because questions were taken directly from lecture.Rate My Professors ↗
Gandhi was a nice enough guy and his test wasn't too difficult, but he was nearly impossible to follow during lectures. He seemed incredibly scatterbrained at times and rarely even acknowledges that he has a class. Luckily, he only taught half of the semester.Rate My Professors ↗
Overall a good teacher who knows well the material. Slides were very funny.Rate My Professors ↗
gandhi provided decent review of concepts during class, but did not effectively introduce them. for first timers of econ, you absolutely have to read the book! if you do, you'll understand most of what you need to know, and the rest comes from the previous exams that he posts online. other than that, don't expect to learn much from gandhi!Rate My Professors ↗
Gandhi definitely wasn't the greatest at teaching the material effectively. Compared to Serrano (who taught the other half of the course) he was very confusing. Did a lot of examples and talked a lot without explaining what we're supposed to learn from the lecture. Tests were not similar to examples covered in lecture. Not horrible, but not great.Rate My Professors ↗
Class is hard to follow because it's pretty boring. Test questions don't relate well to the material that is covered in class or the homework. He focuses too much on specifics instead of general ideas and concepts of the course of economics.Rate My Professors ↗
