AHHH!!! Lectures = gibberish. Writing on board = chicken scratch. He knows the material very well though, midterms & final wasn't too bad. if you have to take this class, sit IN THE FRONT and go to CLAS.

Take CLAS and don't even waste your time going to his lectures (unless you are skilled in understanding mumbling russian english.) His exams are very easy and he allows calculators and a notepage.

Easy tests, interesting TAs, occasional puts people asleep but I certainly appreciate his effort of speaking Russian Engrish. Umm, sometimes he made mistake, but at least he listens to you and apologizes after you pointed it out. Nice guy!

As long as you don't sit in the back row, you can understand him well although he does have a thick accent. Good teacher with clear examples. His tests are similar to his practice exams and are very easy. No curve and an 80 percent average on tests.

I have never taken any calc and i started with Labutin. He has easy tests but good luck understanding him durnig lectures. CLAS is a must. I dont even go to the lectures anymore.

I finished with him a whole year (I needed badly 201) and gave him excellent evoluation but still have no idea about his level. He certaintly has some administrative bravity and agility: chose good textbooks and TA, supported website, maneuvered in departamental wars.

You can tell he resents teaching lower-level math. He also mumbles and has a thick accent. And as for the things I already knew, I felt pain for those who didn't b/c he was doing such an awful job of teaching it.
