This guy is great! He's good at doing clear examples, which make the material much easier to understand. He's also very helpful during office hours!

MATH 222
Quality 1/5Difficulty 5/5
No idea what even came out of the mouth of this strange little dude. Showed up to class in the same sweat suit every day and managed to make a few squeaks and proceed to draw illegible characters on the chalk board. When asked a question, he responds "ummm I don't," and then stares blankly at you for two minutes. DO NOT GET HIM AS A TEACHER.
