You can tell Professor Brown truly cares that his students understand the material. Lectures can be boring, but are very easy to follow. The final was tricky but the other exams were easy, and you don't even need to study for the quizzes. Overall, take Math234 Prof. Brown and you will understand calc 3Rate My Professors ↗
So far the best professor I had. There is no need to read the textbook. Just show up to the lecture and discussion and you should get a high grade. His lectures are amazing and you get enough time to write down everything he writes on the board. His exams were easy except for the final, which had one question that was very difficult.Rate My Professors ↗
Prof Brown has been the best math professor I have had here at UW. He is young and relates very well to college students. Not a lot of work or HW. 11 quizzes (lowest is dropped), 3 exams. He is very clear and only teaches what you need to know. I would definitely recommend prof Brown. You won't regret it! Lectures where great. I never dreaded goingRate My Professors ↗
He very clearly explains concepts in lecture, is very good at helping students visualize concepts, and is more than willing to answer questions at the end. What he teaches is what's on the tests and quizzes, very straightforward. Also just seems like an all around nice guy.Rate My Professors ↗

Professor Brown is a brilliant math teacher, who can visualize hard concepts to make them easier for students to understand. He is always willing to answer students questions. And his exams are really really similar with the practice exams. If you attend lectures and do homework, you will got a nice grade.Rate My Professors ↗
