Best professor in my first year. He makes clear explanations to problems. He writes detailed solutions for multiple questions in each lecture. And he addresses many important concepts while solving and explaining. Math 4B is not an easy class, but Dr. Paul definitely make it better and easier to understand. Homeworks are highly related.

Dr. Paul is an excellent instructor! Although he moves quickly at times, he is very clear and takes care to ensure that everyone is keeping up. iClickers and Graded Problems give you a feel for his exam question style and WebWorks with unlimited tries give you plenty of material to practice with. Take notes and you'll never need the textbook.

Math 4BI was Dr. Pauls inquiry-based differential equations class. He did an excellent job guiding us through the material and explaining the important concepts. He communicated ideas clearly and was an incredible lecturer. The class was a lot of work and skipped over some material, but thats to be expected (since it was inquiry-based).

Great Professor. Not super easy, but if you put in the work, he will make you understand the material very well.

Stepan is definitely one of the best math professors at UCSB. His classes are not easy, but they are manageable. His lectures are very helpful and straightforward. Definitely recommend taking his classes!

He is the best math teacher in UCSB! Very helpful and know math very well. Enjoy his class!
