MATH 222
Quality 4/5Difficulty 4/5
I love his accent; it reminds me of Dr. Zoidberg from Futurama. I also love how passionate he is about Math. It makes learning the material an interesting and worthwhile endeavor. Occasionally, he would teach in a sort of unorganized or circuitous manner, but it was obvious he knew the material very well.

Quality 5/5Difficulty 4/5
Great professor, very clear in lecture. He's brilliant so sometimes he moves quickly. Midterms are very difficult but manageable and the curve is very generous. I would highly recommend him for 222. Awesome guy.

Love love loved him. he made everything clear in lecture and then tested us on what we were taught. no surprises on tests. tests weren't too hard and his curve is super generous. He's really funny too so lectures aren't torture. I went to his office hours too and he was very helpful and welcoming. He makes 222 a lot better than what's expected.

MATH 234
Quality 5/5Difficulty 3/5
He was a very good professor. He spoke very clearly and explained concepts very well. He does a good job of explaining exactly what you need to know for exams and then grades very fairly.

MATH 234
Quality 5/5Difficulty 3/5
Overall a good professor. He explains concepts well and makes some jokes during lectures. Sometimes he goes too much into proofs which becomes boring. I wish he showed more examples and worked them out instead of doing mainly proofs and concepts. Homework can be really long sometimes, but it's doable. Exams are not too bad and are usually curved.

I absolutely loved having this guy. I thought he was hilarious and related his math to things in everyday life to make it more interesting. It was very difficult to do well on tests, however. Although the questions were very fair, the tiny amount of points involved made even a small mistake a large blow to your grade.
