He is open to questions and will answer your questions patiently, and won't let you feel bad. Provides you with a categorical point of view, introduces you the modern algebra. I'm afraid I've left too much unsaid, but I am out of space.",

Couldn't wait for the lectures every week because I was learning so much in each of them! \n\nAlso, he engages you as a student by asking questions and inviting participation. I think it's the ideal way to teach a course, though it takes a very capable professor to teach this way.",

Tough exams, but the practice tests are EXTREMELY similar to them, so you know exactly what to expect.  Does lots of examples and will keep explaining things in different ways if you don't understand.",

His tests were not the easiest, but his practice exams were very similar and doing them helps a lot.  Do what I didn't and go to office hours and work with friends.  I absolutely despised this class but I loved Dima as the professor.",
