Oliver is by far one of the best professors I've ever had. He truly cares about you learning the material rather than getting a grade. He is super helpful and will go out of his way to help you if he knows you need help. COVID-19 made everything online and he spends at least double the time preparing lectures and making sure we understand. Amazing!Rate My Professors ↗
