There's definitely a lot of homework, but he's very flexible with it and quite accommodating. Lectures are superb and he explains the content very clearly. Andrews is also just an incredibly kind person in general. I absolutely recommend his course.Rate My Professors ↗

Great lectures, but the organization of the course was quite chaotic. I would recommend him for graduate level courses, but maybe not for content that you're seeing for the first time.Rate My Professors ↗
10 mathematical proofs each with 3 sub questions per week, ARE YOU JOKING?Rate My Professors ↗
Avoid him at all costsRate My Professors ↗
Super relaxed atmosphere. Good, clear presentation of material. Very accessible for questions both during lecture and office hours. Nothing was mandatory; everyone received an "A" to my knowledge. It was clear they enjoyed teaching Model TheoryRate My Professors ↗
[Summer 2023] A lot of unforgiving homework (18 problems a week) which are only graded (and given feedback) on a few random questions. Prof wasn't that accessible over the term. Otherwise the lectures are informative.Rate My Professors ↗
