CollegeHe's great — very kind and approachable. I'd recommend taking his class; don't let the ratings mislead you! He genuinely puts effort into his teaching.
He seems very nice BUT for the midterm please review everything bc unfortunately he does put random things on it. Lowkey self teach some stuff too
Why are so many people unhappy with him? He's the only professor in the math department who actually teaches for real. I like professors who teach like I have no clue. It'd be way nicer if the sections didn't have quizzes. He's pretty solid.
Not sure why he's rated this low...Prof Schley was an okay and chill professor. His handouts, practice exams, and quizzes were pretty helpful for preparing for the exams.
He's a nice person but don't take his class. Very disorganized lectures. I may not matter that if there's no section quizzes about random contents. You may be tested on the materials you learned yesterday or from two weeks ago…And the quizzes worth 10%of the whole grades! The materials are not that hard but Dr. Schley made everything confusing.
Cannot lecture. Often talks about how he spent a large amount of time debugging or trying to set something up on the practice problem website. There is almost 0 need to create a website for it when you can create a PDF document containing the same questions and answers... I'm also sure Cursor could have one-shotted the website on its own.
