Comment:

Dr. Berezin has a real interest in his students doing well, but explains that it is our responsibility to learn the material. I was worried about the class at first, but he said it himself, "No one ever complains about the way I mark" and it's true. He was extremely fair and in the end I did very well and learned a lot.

Easy class, however, his speech is unintelligible. Just copy down the transparencies and attend class. He is quite humourous actually.

Funny guy. The class about****-sorting technology. Dr. Jessop walked in and he said:"I don't want him to know what I am teaching here." That was so funny! My biggest laugh in a year.

Comment:

His notes were great and explained so much... none of it to do with the course. The test material was all review of 1e03, and he barely covered any of it, but they were easy. The thickness of his accent is hillarious though, and he likes to bash the arts

Hilarious. Good guy. Thickest Russian accent ever. Spontaneous rants about the benefits of Communism definitely a plus.

Awesome Prof! He's got a thick accent, but he makes up for it by caring about his students. I'd love to see the day when somebody orders a box of russian chalk for him off of ebay!

His slides are very clear, which is a good thing, since you can't understand a word he says.

This guys loves to teach and is very willing to discuss stuff with students. Even though his Russian background makes him tricky to understand you will still learn alot.

Useless american chalk in Russia chalk is strong. (in thick Russian accent) then Berezin proceeds to snap chalk, throw on floor and spit on it.
