Comment:

Really good teacher, you won't hear a peep in the lectures since he is strict on that, which is good for learning. Explanations are clear and precise, gives great examples of problems, and when the rare times he opens up to you it's so interesting to hear what he did in the past with math and the various places he taught. He's passionate about math

He has a lot of good stories about his teaching experience and his calculus 1 teaching was very good. He taught everything very clearly and used lots of diagrams and examples in explanations.

Dr. Kim makes Calculus so fun. He does review examples every class and really cares about his students. Pay attention and use his amazing lecture note (posted on D2L) and you will get an A.

Although his pacing may not be suitable for everyone, he gives a lot of good examples for his students to work with. If you understand the concepts better by working through a lot of examples, then he's a great professor!

The course materials were very heavy. It was not prof's fault. His lecture notes were very helpful. Questions in the exam were same to the assigned homework questions.

Comment:

Lectures are hard to follow, class moves very fast. Is funny at times, but still boring for the most part. First midterm was cancelled because they couldn't find rooms, moving the content to the second midterm, and increased the weighting. Second midterm (our only midterm) was hard, and the final was challenging

Prof. Chul had a review session, which was the last lecture, and many office hours before the test 3. His lecture note was easy to follow and very valuable for the test 3, like his interesting and enjoyable lectures. Do you remember the apple to calculate its volume?

Comment:

His accent might a difficult to understand, at first, but you get used to it. To get the most out of him, focus on how he explains and describes a problem and how he solves it; his solving methodology is systematic, simple and easy. He also started every lecture with a review which was great! Don't fixate yourself on the accent, he's very good!

He has an awesome teaching style and is funny, tries to get students to understand those concepts and let students practice important problems. Go to lectures that is important. Tests and Exam are pretty hard but based on homeworks.

Comment:

Dr. Kim is a great math professor, I would say even more the Alvarez. His test questions literally come out of the homework so if you understand what you're doing there then your set. Homework is due at the beginning of every lab and is marked which is a bit of a pain but keep you on track to do well in his course. I would highly recommend!
