Dr. Smith is an excellent teacher I am very glad that I was able to take course with him. He is extremely fast in class but he is incredible thorough. He definitely knows mathematics on a deep philosophical leve...

Great professor with a great attitude. Easy to understand and easy to approch with problems. Understands that not everyone is in love with Math.

Comment:

Very witty man. I think that's why I enjoyed his class. In the first week he labeled my seat "the seat of sarcasm" because I would snap right back at him. Good professor. Knows what he's doing, he just moves very fast. I would recommend his class to people who are strong in math, he will challenge you.

Comment:

He goes really fast and I was glad that I had seen almost everything before taking his class. Take someone else if you haven't seen limits, derivatives, or integrals before. Know the definitions! He will help you in his office if you ask for it. During class is not a good time for ?s though. hw wasn't graded. Midterm, final and random quizzes.

Comment:

Dr Smith is a very friendly guy and very funny. He is also very helpful, but he relies a bit too much on memorization of some formulas. I think memorization of formulas is largely unnecessary and only makes things harder than they should be.

Comment:

Goes a little too fast. A lot of students got behind and had a hard time passing. Proffiency tests are the worst but tries to make class tolerable with comic problems. Will help if you go to his office.
