I attended every lecture. He is very knowledgeable and knows how to teach. He is humorous and friendly. 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.

Quality 5/5Difficulty 5/5
A phenomenal professor! Very clear and provides plenty of motivation! Couldn't wait for the lectures every week because I was learning so much in each of them! Also, 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.

Dima is one of the nicest profs in the math dept. Hes passionate about algebra, and hes fun and engaging, both in office hours and lecture. His exams can be tough, but he gives big hints and useful practice problems. Overall would recommend.

Quality 5/5Difficulty 3/5
Very friendly and helpful. I struggled with the class but that was of my own fault, as Dima gives you everything you need to succeed in the class. 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.

Awesome prof. One of my favorite professors. Go to office hours. He is very patient when it comes to answering questions. Recommend to anyone who needs to take 222.

Quality 4/5Difficulty 4/5
This man is absolutely brilliant. Any struggles I had in this class had little to nothing to do with him. 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.
