Comment:
Basically he does stuff the old way, solid choice for 213, but you're gonna need to do the course from the textbook, to be honest for 213 just do all the problems in the textbook and it's a very easy A. The main thing ill rate him a 4 is that after a midterm or a final you can probably squeeze a few more marks out of him!

Comment:
His classes are really boring . You shouldn't take 2 hour classes with him EVER! You will have to sit in front if you want to hear and understand him. He also gives TOO MUCH homework. He covers the content but not entirely. He doesn't give problems similar to the ones on his tests.

Comment:
His lectures are very useful. He doesn't waste time on proving equation unless it's helpful. He rather uses examples to help us to understand. He has a little bit accent, but it's easy to understand if you listen carefully. He'll hint students what to study for the final. His exam are okay and he is an easy marker.

The only thing you have to remember with him is to sit close to him to be able to hear him clearly. Otherwise, you won't hear a word because of his little voice. However, really good grader and covers correctly the material.

Funny and nice teacher. Cares a lot for students and his midterms are really easy. The assignments take time tho but you'll get free marks if you do them correctly! You can get a excellent grade in this course if you take the time to do your assignments correctly

Comment:
For most math students @ Conc MATH364 will be their first rigourous' course. The material can be dense since lectures are so compact. This man has a gift for teaching: Making otherwise complex material real. Perhaps he grades too generously, but on the other hand perhaps (as students) we focus on our mistakes over our successes?

Comment:
The main reason I like Gora is that I write really nice notes in his courses. He never uses the textbook and his notes are very helpful for assignments and exams. In a nutshell, if you do well in Gora's class you have no else to thank but yourself, if you fail, you have no else to blame but yourself.

Teaches well and grades generously. His notes are helpful to review the materials later. The other instructor emphasizes understanding of the concepts too much, making notes a bit messy.

Does easy examples from the book and then gives hard problems on the exam. Doesn't prepare you at all for the exams. You are better off reading the book on your own and doing all the problems from the book and hope someone else is the Course Examiner cause his exams are brutal.

Uses examles directly from the book. Nothing from himself! Favourite pharese: I dont know! He simply doesnt know how to explian it... Tries to answer questions sometime succesfully sometimes not. Gives comletely irrelevant sample questions in tests! We got 8 A's and B's, 14 F's the rest are D's and C's. Everybody spupid??? Dont think so!

Avoid this course if he's the one teaching it! I was looking forward to this course but he just ruined everything for me. His class notes are incomprehensible and he didn't recommend a proper textbook and he doesn't have any proper slides on his website! If you want a low grade, then do take it!

Extremely helpful teacher. Encourages (and forces) students to participate in class, making sure students get hands-on experience with the material. Is very calm and friendly as well. The lectures are well-paced and many examples are used to clarify the material. Overall, great teacher and highly-recommended.

Never met a more relaxed person, let alone a math teacher. His natural calmness permeates thoughout the classroom, lending to a more stimulating and fun learning environment; he also interjects the ocassional homouristic remark which keeps us awake.
