Comment:
Once you get over his crazy accent and messed up vocabulary then he's a really good professor. He explains things in different ways, so if you don't understand it the first way you might understand the second. Loves what he does, is good at it, and tries to make it a good time. Even though Linear Algebra sucks really bad.

Comment:
I only had him as substitute prof twice, but he is definitely smart, teaches well, and he does have perfect English - people need to stop focusing on the accent and listen to the man. Definitely under-rated.

He's very hard to understand and does not explain the problems/solutions affectively so that everyone in the class can understand.

Comment:
Makes a number of mistakes, so lessons can be a bit confusing at times, but it just forces you to pay attention and prompts questions when you see something that doesnt look right. Most of my class had a hard time understanding him, but I had no problem at all. Overall, a really good prof.

This guy is hillarious. He rarely shaves, is always rushing in last minute and uses "Michael Jackson" insead of "x". Other than that he takes the time to explain if you ask.

Seems like a very nice professor who likes math. Good at some things, but can spend too much time on easy concepts and not enough on harder ones.

Claus is the man for algebra. He really knows what he's talking about and he'll explain stuff for as long as it takes us to understand it.

Nice guy, but makes way too many mistakes in the examples, so looking back at them to try to understand things you get lost.
