Comment:

Funny and always smiling professor. Uses slides to teach math !! you end up getting lost in what he says. his exams are good.. all you need is memorize how the questions look like and how to approach them ! overall he is a bad teacher.. i dont recommend

After 23 yrs when I was one of students of his, I still have to say, its Introductory Linear Algebra course (62-120; 1st yr 1st term) is super tough!!

Comment:

To those taking math foundations, take it with another teacher, having 3 hours including lab right after class with him is unbearable. Just spending 50 min in his class will make you want to shoot your food off. The marking for assignments is awful, if your answer does not match his, no part marks.. half the class dropped it at midterm enough sai

Comment:

Really frustrating prof. He seems friendly and wants to help, and is flexible on make up tests etc, but when it comes to getting help with the course is really not helpful at all. Because he wrote his own text it's your only resource. Course is incredibly hard. avoid if possible

Comment:

Take it form someone who took the 3 toughest math courses with him and (later on) became a math prof. first you will love him (the jokes ARE funny), then you will hate him (when you get back your first assignment/test). But when you are done with the course you will know you were lucky to have taken the course with him. HE TEACHES MATH.

He is a wonderful man but maybe not the best prof. He is always willing to help but not always helpful. He one of the only tolerable profs in the entire department.

He's a very nice person however when he answers his question they're wrong (ex.3+4 does not =15). I ended droppin the class after the midterm since a lot of ppl failed and took it with Livingston a GA I think the next semester
