Comment:

Marty was truly an amazing teacher. I had struggled with math throughout my life. His calc class was the first time I felt a thorough and complete understanding of the subject. He has a sense of humor that some could find off-putting but I found it entertaining, keeps lectures light-hearted. My biggest regret is not taking more classes with him.

One of the best teachers I've ever had in my whole life. He is that good, people... I had to take summer school calculus after my freshman year at another school, and I got Marty as my teacher. He. Was. Awesome. I aced the course and for the first time in my life I actually understood and liked math.

Comment:

I changed my major from bio to math because of this man. Before him I could barely handle precalculus. I aced calc 1, 2 and 3 because of his phenomenal instruction. Students will only get one teacher like him in a lifetime if they are lucky. I would follow this man to the ends of the Earth. Give thanks to God if you find yourself in his class.

Simply put, I used to hate math until I had Marty as a professor. I had his classes throughout my college career and he excelled at teaching in everyone of them. Not only does he know his math, he goes out of his way to make the class fun and enjoyable which is something most math professors cannot achieve. Overall a great professor to have. 10/10.

Comment:

Amazing teacher. I took all of my math classes with him from Calc 1 all the way to Differential Equations. As someone who was more geared towards Comp Sci, he did his best to keep everyone interested including myself. I began to see the world through the eyes of a mathematician. It's impossible to sleep during his class. He always gives 100%

Comment:

He really peaked my interest in mathematics with this class. He puts a lot of effort into keeping the class "interested" as well which is great, but at times he can get very off topic. Grading is very easy, and he uses his own textbook which was a big financial help.

Comment:

Awful professor, he clearly knows the material but his pedagogical ability is zero to none. He can never get through a single problem with getting distracted which in turn makes it impossible to learn anything. He teaches from his own textbook which is just as awful as his in person teaching. Overall he is incredibly arrogant. DONT TAKE HIS CLASS

Comment:

I did my senior thesis with marty lewinter. I also took all my upper level math classes with him. I can say he truly got me to think like a mathematician. I'm currently an adjunct professor at CCNY and I still owe marty a great deal to showing me how a math professor should be. I hope to be as good as him one day.
