Comment:
Very good teacher. Teaches his own way and not according to the text.Tests are simple.I didnt have to work problems from text since his examples are enough.Manage to pull off an 89 % avg. Careful though, he marks off a lot for stupid alegbra mistakes.It didnt happened to me but my classmates has.Final exam replaces your lowest score.Its optional.

Loved this guy. Go to every class, he teaches his own way different from the text and makes the material much more clear (don't bother reading book). 4 tests and optional final to replace worst test. Does not give you complex integrals on tests. He does however take off for stupid algebra errors so watch out! Take him he's really great.

Class is hard no matter what its just the subject. He is a cute old man who wants you to pass. There is a huge curve in the class. Make use of his office hours very helpful! Test questions come from homeworks and examples in the book, the exact problems.

Dr. Andrews is a nice guy but not a very good teacher. His tests will contain items which he explicitly said were not going to be included. Frustrating. Don't even go to class, just read the book and do the h.w.

Great prof he has written so many books he knows how to effectively organize mathematics and make it extremely clear for lecturing and reading. Gives tough test. He's definately one of the best if not the best.

Maybe he was easy in Calculus, but in Differential equations its a different story. Usually around half the class failed his tests.

Vector and Tensor Analysis with Dr. Andrews was awesome! He's got to be one of the smartest people I've ever met, and knows more than enough about the subject to teach it effectively. If you see his name next to a class you're thinking of registering for - take it!

He is a good teacher if you like proofs and theorems, but if you need to see examples, don't take his class. He grades pretty tough. He likes to give take home exams.

He is very boring, so I had a hard time convincing myself to go to class. I probably could have gotten an A instead of a B had I gone to class more, because he does explain things well if you don't zone out.

Best Math teacher I've ever had. He was always available to help and the tests were very fairly designed. Won't help much if you don't do the homework, though(like me).

Dr. Andrews is able to explain advanced topics very well. He's always available for help and clarification, and tests are representative of the homework. If you find the lectures boring, it's moreso due to the topic itself, and not its presentation.

The best math teacher I've ever had! His lectures are very helpful, and he is more than willing to answer any questions you have, and help you any way he can.

Good teacher. His lectures may loose you at times, but just make sure to copy the notes and do a majority of the HW problems.

Old school teacher, no quizzes, your grade is based on 4 tests. No calculators or study sheets allowed. HW problems end up on the test, so do the HW.
