guys, MATH 34 is math for social science majors. they aint cut out for math, skill issue imo. dont take their reviews seriously
He's great — very kind and approachable. I'd recommend taking his class; don't let the ratings mislead you! He genuinely puts effort into his teaching.
He seems very nice BUT for the midterm please review everything bc unfortunately he does put random things on it. Lowkey self teach some stuff too
There was no point in going to lectures because he did not teach anything. My friends and I had to teach everything ourselves, and even when you asked for help, he was extremely unhelpful. He showed up late to class, and I know many people that sruggled in his class.
Why are so many people unhappy with him? He's the only professor in the math department who actually teaches for real. I like professors who teach like I have no clue. It'd be way nicer if the sections didn't have quizzes. He's pretty solid.
Really wants his students to succeed, quizzes every section were difficult and sometimes unfair but he recognized that and dropped the bottom few grades, even dropped lowest hw grade. Both midterms and the final are completely reasonable and fair. Very invested in teaching the geometry behind vector calculus to get a more complete understanding.
