Very clear. Immense intuition on the subject. Extremely well-prepared notes. Explains central points with accuracy and emphasis. Very good homework problems, too, the kind that is not tedious, but really aids understanding.

One of the best courses I have ever taken. He has such a good grasp of the context and describes the subject with such a mastery that is unparalleled with other classes. If you want to get a first grade education, he is your guy.

Comment:

Really horrible lecturer, likes to berate students who ask stupid questions and make fun of the class. Seems to really hate teaching and/or views undergraduates and masters students as a burden. Not much useful content in the course.

Comment:

Look around the lecture hall and you'll see many students asleep. Has a tendency to chuckle to himself at jokes no one understands or even knew were told. Nasty quizzes and exams.
