MATH118A . Putinar M 2 Years Ago

Professor Putinar is an amazing lecturer. His exams were fair and as someone who really enjoys mathematics, I found his course to be motivating and inspirational. I can't wait to learn more analysis & I appreciate him!! Also head to office hours if you are able to, they help!

MATH6A . Putinar M 2 Years Ago

Couldn't focus during his lectures. He's not very amusing. Had to purchase HW, but I liked the website a lot because it walked you through everything step by step. Test was easier since it was online and open note.

MATH4A . Putinar M 2 Years Ago

Mr. Putinar is an uninspiring orator, whose lectures inspire little true understanding of the subject matter. Homework, assigned online through pearson was easily completed, and did not deviate far from the assigned course material. Exams were also given online, through pearson, and were the same difficulty of the homework.

He is very caring and nice. Highly recommended to go to his office hour. The grading is lenient.

MATH4A . Putinar M 3 Years Ago

Lectures were dull and I did not attend mostly. Uses an online interactive textbook which is actually really useful if you don't mind self studying, but it's expensive. Light homework and straightforward tests

MATH4A . Putinar M 3 Years Ago

Lectures were very poor and slides were never helpful. Basically worse copies from the textbook. I read the textbook and watched youtube videos to get through this course. On the bright side, the homework was easy and the tests were short and online. Basically exact problems from the homework software.
