MATH116 . Casteels K L 2 Years Ago

The best math professor ever. Lectures are interesting and he posted recordings for most topics from previous years. Grading on exams are super generous. Super helpful in office hours. Respond to emails very fast. Overall great class and great professor. By the way the TA Arthur is amazing too!

MATH116 . Casteels K L 4 Years Ago

Great lecturer and he is good at explaining things in office hours too. Reasonable tests and homework, class work is fairly straightforward and easy in general, just go to extra hours and talk to him and the TA and the class will be even easier!

MATH132A . Casteels K L 7 Months Ago

he admits himself that he's not an expert on this class and isn't really good at explaining but makes up for it by giving out free homework scores. you only need a 60% on hw to get full credit, but can sometimes be a hassle. exams are pretty computation heavy. dont expect the exams to be a copy past of the practice, theyre not. anythings fair game

MATHCS120 . Casteels K L 1 Year, 3 Months Ago

This prof would constantly forget to post important things on canvas which can be really annoying when you're trying really hard to get a good grade in the class. Homework is really hard and it just doesn't seem like he gaf. Somewhat funny but makes everything more complicated than they need to be
