Comment:

He loves trig and would go on a tangent about trig identities. Test are clear cut, whatever you do on homework is what you do on test. He explains thing in steps and have a guide you can follow for each method. DQ is not hard, you just have to work the problem. He's old and can't hear very well but he's entertaining and he's a great math teacher.

Kuperberg is a nice and witty old man. English isn't his first language but he's still very clear. He gives homework, but its effort. His tests are hard, but you get soo many bonus point opportunities in the class for participation.

He's a really nice old guy. English isn't his first language but he speaks clearly. He will give homework occasionally but its completion. His tests are not difficult and he gives extra credit on them, along with extra credit given during class if you find any mistakes he makes in class.

Took him for Honors Calculus III and made a 100 in the class. Everyone was exempt from the final. Take him if you can.

Comment:

This class was pretty confusing. The only reason I passed this class is because of the extra credit that was offered. His test were mainly multiple choice and only worth 20 points. He's not a very clear person and I loves for you to figure things out on your own. The more you participate the better your chances are.

He likes to talk a lot about math theory and can sometimes totally get away from the subject you are trying learn. His tests are pretty fair and the homework assignments are relatively short. Standard grading scale.

Awesome teacher! Goes at a slow pace, assigns a total of 10 homework assignments throughout the semester. The tests are exactly from the homework, just using different numbers. Get a chegg account, because it definitely explains how to do all the problems. The final is basically a combination of all three tests.

He is an amazing teacher. He teaches slow and thoroughly. As long as you go to class and do the homework, you will do well in his class.

Great professor, very nice and genuinely wants everyone to succeed in his class. If you work hard enough, getting an A is no problem and class participation is rewarded. Overall, great class despite him warning how difficult it was going to be.

Took for DiffEq. Very, very good at teaching the material. Very patient and easygoing with the pace. Assigns homework regularly, and tests are just like the homework. Very helpful in class or in office hours. I highly recommend taking him.

Comment:

Kuperberg has been my favorite teacher at auburn so far. He assigns homework and even gives you a grade for completion and the if you can do the homework the tests will be no problem. Go to class because his explanations help alot. TAKE HIM IF YOU CAN! if you cant do well in his class you shouldn't be taking it in the first place.

Comment:

He is one of the better teachers I have had at Auburn. At first I did not like him. He has long lectures about puzzles and theory behind the math but we dont do many examples. The nights before test I had to go through the book and find problems that I thought he may ask and figure everything out. So if you are self disiplined you will do fine.

Comment:

Very easy teacher for the most part. Even though he spends at least 3 days telling you how hard he is and how you must know algebra and trig to do well in his class. Lectures are very drawn out and often off topic, but he does try to explain things well. Very nice guy too.

I loved him! Had him for three semesters and made an A each time. Very helpful. Tries to make sure everyone is on the same page. Also quite available in his office for questions. Seems to really care about his students. Material is challenging, but he tries very hard to help you understand. I also recommend getting a solution manual.

Comment:

Kinda reminds me of Cramer, from Seinfeld. Not quite as absent-minded, but close. Hands out way too much extra credit. If you've had any Cal 2, then take this guy for Diff Eq. I thought it was a repeat with a little memorization.

Comment:

He is a great professor. He can puzzle you with hard extra credit problems, but he is straight to the point in his lectures. I never had Calc 1 before this class and find that is was easy with his help along the way. Ask questions if you have questions. There are lots of bonus point opportunities.

Comment:

Kuperberg is AWESOME! I wish I could have him next semester, but his class conflicts with another class I have to take. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I had Calculus last year, and I thought his class was very easy. He will challenge you with extra credit problems, but his test problems are relatively easy=A.

He is awesome! He always makes sure you understand him. He likes it when people ask him questions. Tests aren't too hard and he gives bonus points if you pay attention in class and catch his mistakes. He is a super adorable little old man and is a super fantastic teacher.
