He's actually a good professor if you listen. He has a pretty strong accent but you get used to it. He assumed we all knew about series which I didn't learn until math 5c, but overall he's straightforward. The practice midterms and finals were good, too.

he is a good teacher, if you do the homework you pass the class, the midterm had problems taken out of recommended problems, and he curves at the end, sometimes he would get confused by his own examples but hi is a good guy.

he is horrible. barely understands the english language and so his tests make no freaking sense. i actually understand the homework and the class but completely failed the tests because his questions made no sense. DO NOT take this class with him if you need to learn.

One of the worst professors I've ever had. He's from France, and his english is difficult to understand. Plus, it's hard to read what he writes on the board. He doesn't really know how to teach, and he often posts wrong due dates on assignments, or does not post the reading for the assignments he gives. Don't take him if at all possible.

What a sad professor. His class is a joke. If you just want to take his class to pass then I would take it with him becuase he curves. But if you actually want to learn do not take clases with this guy.

Who are you to "throw points on the line??!!"

Did he solve any stochastic process ever? Does not know enough math to teach stochastic process. Bad english!

This professor says everything is easy. Just hand waives, proves nothing in the class. If mathematics was so easy, why could not he publish a single paper in life, click his reserach in his website, always dead. Everybody was bored in the class. Gave just one homework in whole course. How could he teach a graduate course with no research? Avoid him

Quite to the contrary of what others have written here, Dr. Bonnet is a dedicated and knowledgeable instructor as well as a nice guy.

If you want to learn something useful, then stay away from this man, because you are absolutely wasting your precious time if you take ANY class with him. There are many other wonderful, qualified, helpful, and modest professors at UCSB to learn from... Once you see through appearances, you find out he is NOT what he portrays himself to be.

i have no idea why the other reviewers didn't like this guy. he's very straightforward, great use of the board, great webpage, great correlation with book, and prepares you for the test if you do your hw. overall, a very *organized* professor. his french accent is pretty thick though, but still understandable.

Is this guy a maron or what? The textbook explains things much better and it has a better personality than him. Avoid him like the plague.
