CollegeTed's homework is a lot of work. But if you put in the time and effort on the homework, you'll do well on the tests. His lectures run the gamut from extremely engaging and useful (anytime he explains broad concepts) to a serious struggle (trying to follow his convoluted algebra), but he mostly teaches well.
Bennett is a great teacher. He knows what he is talking about, and he loves what his teaching. He gives a quality lectures, but are really tedious sometimes. He is really nice guy and if you have a question, he is always willing to answer. But his HWs are ridiculously long and hard. His tests are fair and very similar to the HW questions.
The class is challenging and takes a lot of work. From what I've heard, though, Bennett is much better than the previous teacher--and this is his first quarter teaching it.
The subject material is very Hard. He does his best, and is good at explaining and clarifying things. lectures are well structured. You won't use the book much. Please, for the love of god, go to lectures or you will fail this class. Homework is very tough, exams are very tough. expect to derive things from scratch on the exam. fat curve at the end
Good professor
There was a lot of homework assigned, some which took over 24 cumulative hours to finish. Personally found his lectures to be even more confusing than his handwriting, which is already a challenge to decipher. Midterm average of 72% with mode of ~90%, so clearly he's doing something right. I guess I just didn't match well with his teaching style.
