there is nothing to complain about this guy. he is just a really really nice and sweet guy who wants his students to feel comfortable and learn math. he doesn't assign his students a lot of homework, and his grading distribution is fair. will definitely take his class again.

Goat! The absolute best prof I've encountered so far. He really cares about your learning and gives super engaging lectures. He also spends a massive chunk of lecture time individually helping people with practice problems, walking around, getting to know people. That said, his class is so easy you may not learn quite as much as other sections.

Not only did he make a historically difficult class very understandable, but he did so in a very hands-on and fun way thay kept the entire class engaged with what he was saying. Fantastic teacher.

I think ill never have a better teacher again no joke. Completely accesible from outside of class, made it easy to learn and understand a hard topic.
