CollegeHands down one of the best teachers I have ever had. Top 3 in my book. The professor is extremely rigorous, the homework assignments are very difficult and Dr. Ludwig is always ready to help and even stays very late after his office hours to work with you
Ludwig, when it comes to lecture style, worked perfectly for me. He clearly outlined derivations and interesting content throughout the course. Homework was among the hardest I've ever had, but informative if you got the right answer. Exams were decent, the problems being much easier than homework sets although at times a little unclear.
When I grow up I want to be like Andreas Ludwig.
He is very nice. Love the Dutch accent. Lecture can get too theoretical and boring, but the class itself isn't bad. Tests are pretty difficult, but this guy is easier than some of the other professors.
He spends too much time on conceptual things and not enough time on examples. The class was still fairly easy though. I really like his Dutch accent...
Nice guy but is not good for an introduction to physics. Takes too much time showing how equations are derived and how, rather than showing examples of how they can be used or how they apply to our homework.
