Comment:
Did a great job teaching a very unintuitive class. He was organized, knowledgeable, and a very fair grader. Although he doesn't seem very approachable at first, he's always willing to help in office hours and wants the class to do well. The tests were straightforward if you do practice problems from the book, but the final was quite tough.

Comment:
He does a decent job teaching a really difficult subject. However, sometimes he can get too into the theory instead of doing practice problems in lecture. Make sure you make a thorough crib sheet.

Comment:
Does a good job teaching a very difficult subject. He rarely tests proofs and cares much more that you can solve problems and conceptually understand theory. Does a really good job teaching problem solving mechanics, but has difficulty communicating the basis of the theory. If you are an undergrad, you'll be competing with Ph.D. students for the A.

His first test was easy. Said the class average was too high and the second test would be higher. Class average for second test was about a 35%. He also had a strong accent and talked to the board, so it was impossible to hear.

He is extremely attentive, and very helpful as long as you put forth effort into your work. He is by FAR the best math professor I have ever had at GaTech, and a really cool man if you actually take the time to get to know him.

Comment:
Did not teach the material well. Hardly ever did relative examples in class. TA's did most of the teaching. Tests had an avg grade of 55%. All of the tests were too long and very hard. Prepare to study your brains out. Only 1 group passed the group project which were selected from the books projects.

Comment:
Good teacher. He had Polish accent when I took the course, but I got the hang of it in a week. He was very organized in teaching and when using the whiteboard. Writes down definitions, theorems and proofs very clearly. Didn't really stick to the textbook. Tests were a bit easier than expected.

His English is very hard to understand. The content of his lectures is very unstructured and diverges from the book a lot. It is hard to get a hook into the class.

Comment:
i'm pretty ambivalent on him... not exactly a ray of sunshine, but a nice guy if you take the time to know him. almost verbatim out of the book, but he does explain nontrivial material with sufficient clarity, and contingent on your willingness to work hard, an easy B.

Not the most personable but very fair. Easy 'B' if you put forth the effort.

Comment:
He isn't a very good teacher and his accent makes him pretty hard to understand. He likes to go over the same thing over and over which gets repetitive. We did too well on one test so he told us the next oune would "fix the gpa". I dont think an
