This professor is extremely straight-forward. The homework for his 104B class wasn't so bad either, especially if you work with your peers. His exams are awesome. He has a review lecture and goes over ALL possible questions he could ask you in the exam and goes over how to do them in detail. It seems pretty counter-intuitive, but I learned a lot.

He is a nice guy who is good at explaning concepts and giving examples. He writes his notes on the board and does not post anything on gauchospace. He requires us to register ourselves on wileyplus which costs me $120 for homework.

Professor Yang has been my only math professor at UCSB that I have consistently been able to follow, every lecture. He has a bit of an accent but, overall, his lectures are extremely clear and helpful. They apply directly to the homework and tests, and it is easy to succeed if you show up to every class.

Pretty hard to understand during lectures and re-writes book examples for lectures. Midterm was OK; however, the final was very difficult. Try to avoid him as he is a hard grader with no curves.

Midterm was easy, straight from the homework but the final was very hard. Section isn't mandatory but TA Peter is very nice and quizzes are easy so make sure to go for an easy full 10%. Weekly homework due on Wiley ($97) just go to Math Lab and ask for help or google the question. Btw, no curve.

Homework assignments are on wileyplus. Exams are tough. He said he would make the final easier than the midterm, but I'm unsure what his definition of easy is.

Midterm was trivial but heed this guy's warning about the final because it was downright insane. First final I've had where EVERYONE stayed the full 3 hrs. Horrific accent, no lie. And writes small so try to nab a seat in the front. Lectures are also very dry, but hes a nice dude.

Professor Yang was very clear in his explanations. Hes also very cute like 9/10 (^_^;) and he has neat handwriting. I believe that I could learn a lot of differential equations from him.

Thick accent, easy midterm, take CLAS instead of going to class. CLAS guy (Tyler) is super helpful.

His class is really easy, but he offers little to no help with homework and preparation for tests. Utilize CLAS, section, and Math Lab as much as possible, and it's an easy A.

Yang is really an easy going professor. The first midterm was super easy, he says the final is going to be harder but I am not too worried. We moved pretty slow and he even didn't have time to finish some topics. The homework is on wiley and it sucks. The textbook also sucks. Yang also has a thick accent that is hard to understand.
