It's too bad that he won't be here next year, he was the best math teacher I've ever had! Simply brilliant! Cool and funny guy. Just stay on top of things and you'll be ok in his class.

If you don't know the material before hand, you better plan on paying attention and going to all of the classes. Your grade is mostly based on homework which helps.

Comment:

He tries very hard to relate material to real life situation, but sometimes tries to hard and doesn't teach how to do the actual problem very well. The grade in the class is based more on homework than anything else

Comment:

Figa's class was challenging because he tried to make it relavant to real life, instead of buttering the material up so it's easy to swallow. I enjoyed his class.
