Horrible. Went into every exam thinking I was well prepared, came out of every exam wanting to cry. Exams are impossible and do not relate to homework or lecture. He is very hard to understand and the TAs are useless.Rate My Professors ↗
one of the bad professors. I used to love math, and got an A in 211, but this guy just ruined it for me. Exams were so hard i wanted to cry. Went to office hours, was useless. Textbook used only for hw, not worth buying.Rate My Professors ↗
WORST professor i have ever had. Class was pointless and wrote so much on the board it couldn't be read. this was the lowest grade i have ever received in a class in college. the homework was unrelated to the exams. Exam 1 was impossible the second was not bad and the final was impossible.Rate My Professors ↗
Writes non-stop on the board and never stops for questions in lecture. First exam was impossible, second exam was fair, and final was impossible. You can know how to do everything in the book and still feel like you failed. Poor comminucation between TAs and professor also, frustrating.Rate My Professors ↗
Impossible to keep up or understand. Tests are equally impossibleRate My Professors ↗
lectures are dreadful. he cannot explain a single thing. mumbles under his breathe about what he's doing on the board. he's extremely intelligent but cant teach worth anything.Rate My Professors ↗
