Kaminsky is a good guy, but not the best professor. The class was an extremely easy A, but that's just due to the fact that there is zero depth in his teaching. This course was basically memorize how to solve certain equations and take the practice exams and you will pass. Made the subject seem very dry. Overall a pleasant guy and easy class. Meh.

Kaminsky was pretty much the epitome of a mediocre professor. Lectures we're pretty boring and the homework was frustrating at times, but if you understand the homework the exams are pretty straightforward.

He is pretty good. Always post practice exams.

He just spent the whole time reading off his lecture slides, and made tons of mistakes.

His lectures aren't the best and he makes mistakes a little more than other professors. However, he is definitely fair and is willing to lend a hand when needed. He responds to emails very quickly when it comes to homework, and his grading schemes are lenient.

Great professor that made learning vector calculus a breeze. Tests and midterms are easy as long as you've taken good notes, write down the write formulas on the notecard, and do the practice exams he sends out. Lots of homework but it really makes the problems on the tests feel first nature. He makes mistakes on slides, but, will correct them.
