    MATH137A . Casteels K L 1 Year, 16 Days Ago

    Very engaging lecturer, great sense of humor. Extremely timely with email repsonses. Grading was homework, 2 midterms, and a final. Holds a lot of office hours. Homework can be tough but he'll help you in OH. Midterms generally easier than homework. Also just a nice guy

    MATH137A . Casteels K L 1 Year, 24 Days Ago

    HW 25%, 2 midterms 15% each, 1 final 45%; He's very funny and genuinely helps so much in office hours. Favorite math class at UCSB thus far and only class I ever went to that I waNTed to go to because the course content is fun (he makes it fun). Homework was light (5ish problems per week) and if they're hard, mathlab helps so much.

    MATH3A . Casteels K L 1 Year, 2 Months Ago

    Very nice professor. Lectures were straightforward, exams were very reasonable difficulty. Very manageable class if you study effectively.
