CollegeHorrible at teaching, the tests did not reflect what he taught in class.
zero structure in lecture or section. almost no communication with students or TAs. 20+ questions of hw each week that are nothing like the exam. no information on dates/how many midterms until 1 week before. no study materials. luckily, TAs are very nice and give a lot of partial credit, which is the only reason this class was passable.
He knows a lot about math but just really is impossible to learn from. He has the sloppiest handwriting I have ever seen from a teacher or professor. I learned everything from CLAS. With that said the tests were grade rather generously so it isn't too difficult to do well if you spend time outside of lecture learning.
Rick Ye makes sure you have no idea what's going on in this class. I could not understand him or read his handwriting, not that it would've helped since his lectures are all over the place. No practice tests were provided for midterm/final. HIGHLY recommend to wait a quarter and take it with another professor. TAs very unhelpful and final is 53%...
run. keep running.
The professor may be good at research, but his teaching is VERY POOR. Lectures are hard to follow, and the notes are unclear. It feels like there's little coordination with the TAs. Overall, it's very difficult to learn in this class due to the way the material is presented.
