Greatest teacher ever. Easy too pass. He clearly loves music and he's great at it! True musician! Would absolutely recommend it.

MUS22 . Osqueezadeh B 9 Years Ago

The worst professor I've ever had. No syllabus, no office hours, the lectures are very hard to follow. He told us almost nothing about the midterm and final, then asked us absurd trick questions on them. Didn't even tell us how we did on the midterm; he told us to email him if we wanted to know (he didn't respond to any of my emails all quarter).
