This professor refused to answer my questions saying claiming that there isn't enough time then proceeded on the same day to let us early by 7 minutes. Went to his oh, same thing. He teaches for succeeding in the final, not necessarily Calc 2 as when I asked a past paper question about things we should know, he claimed it will not be on the finalRate My Professors ↗
I liked him but he often was not clear on what we had to know for exams. It also felt like we were always behind and catching up on the last lecture.Rate My Professors ↗
Scintillating lecturer but tended to meander. Focused more on theory than how to actually do the problems (which created confusion among my peers and I), but he was open to feedback and very friendly. Class felt unstructured, but it was one of his first classes taught (?), so I'll give him the benefit of the doubtRate My Professors ↗
I felt like he was very accessible but this class is difficult and exam heavy. Any deductions on exams wether that be for content mistakes or submission mistakes count for a pretty huge portion of the total grade. As far as lectures, he communicates clearly but it wasn't often clear where we were going in lecture (in that it felt a bit meander-y).Rate My Professors ↗
