Comment:

He is a really amazing prof! He is funny and sometimes makes a lot of jokes. He knows his stuff pretty well and explain them very clear intuitively! But his assignments are pretty hard, as least for me. And there are no solutions for this course.

Comment:

How can a professor be so smart and funny at the same time? He is passionate about the subject and teaching. However, he expects a lot from his students and his assignments are extremely challenging. However, his midterm was very fair. He made it so that if you put in your time to study, you will at least pass.

He was a great teacher, the in class notes were clear and the quizzes were easy. He was generous with bonus marks in the course. The assignments were challenging, but then the midterm was fairly easy by comparison.

This is one of the best courses I've taken in university. The lecture material is fairly straightforward but the assignments, midterm and final are very challenging. Great for those who are interested in testing their limits.

Comment:

Really nice teacher as long as you stay ahead of him. Do not fall back otherwise he will whiz ahead of the material at warp 9. Expects a bit more of you but i guess thats the way he is and its not bad for you. In the end youll bnfit from being in his sect

Comment:

Hard course, but prof makes it better than it could be. He explains things well. Concepts are ok to understand but tough to work out on your own. Assignments are a killer. Can answer any question thrown at him, should aim explanations a little bit lower.

Great prof, and can answer any question during lectures without even pausing to think about it. Notation isn't always clear, but thats because of the material, not his fault.

OH...MY... GAWD. Why oh why is he coordinating an INTRODUCTORY Optimization course? Has he EVER considered the possibility that not everyone is supremely smart?

He's fairly demanding, and a pretty good lecturer, but you'll need to stay on top of the material or you'll get lost.

Comment:

He is strict teacher but a good guy. Too bad he falsely believes the class understands what he's talking about (Note to prof: No one raising their hand could also imply half the class is TOTALLY LOST!)

This guy really flies through lectures, but he's very responsive and polite to students. As a side note, this course CO 355 really flies too
