Comment:

Cinzori is hilarious and really cares about his students. His grading philosophy is that 90% is an A, so tests are 90% things you've done before and 10% (or one question) that is an extension on what you already know (usually doing math a little more abstractly). He's fun to listen to, uses webwork for homework, and has a few writing projects.

Here's the thing. Professor Cinzori has great intentions he loves laughing and checks in before moving on to new topics. Then comes the work outside of class. Webwork takes an incredible amount of time to complete because you only get credit if you get the right answer. Submitting 15+ answers on one problem wasn't uncommon.

Best teacher I had all year. He was always helpful for extra help outside of class. His grade was based off of tests and quizzes but as long as you study well and do the homework, you'll be fine. I would highly recommend Cinzori for any class.

Comment:

A great guy and a great teacher. Tough, fast-paced course. Student must be self-motivated because homework isn't required but exams are very difficult. Very flexible and willing to help you any way he can outside of class. Funny, enthusiastic, and intelligent. Just be sure you understand the material so you don't get behind or cram for exams.

Great professor and great guy. Awesome sense of humor, goes beyond what you would expect a professor to do in class so you understand it. If you do the homework and are decent at math. Unfortunately I didnt listen to my own advice. Overall, I would highly recomend him.

He's a really funny guy-- he told the class that he thinks Jodi Foster is hot, and that he has a tri-pod dog. He teaches his lectures extremely well and listens to the class' feedback.
