I took his course as a pre-business student. He is extremely nice, will go over and above to help you and knows when the class struggles with topics. He wants people to participate in class but the subject matter is tough to get enthusiastic about. Got a 4 for clarity because he is soft spoken and can be difficult to understand on occasion.

You can tell he's a nice guy but all the learning is done out of class because his accent is so strong. I went into his office hours a few times and he is awkward and barely speaks English. He deducts points for every minuscule mistake and you will never know why because his comments are written so poorly.

This course is so easy. Three assignments per week: super easy hw, one in lab exercise and one capstone project. Just go to lecture for clicker points (10% of grade), I preferred to teach myself from the book. You get to have a front/back 8.5x11 sheet of paper with notes for the test: just put definitions/equation examples on it and you'll get an A

It's not that the class is necessarily hard, the hardest part is making yourself attend the lectures. He's funny and full of memes, but the lectures just drag on and attendance is kept by a semi-faulty app *TopHat* and while it is accessible from outside of the hall-questions are thrown in which only a physical attendee would know.

Lectures are kind of a joke. I went to every one but I definitely didn't need to. He was kind of hard to understand during lectures but he still made the lectures interesting and he pretty much tells you the answers to the top hat questions. The class was so easy I passed with over 100%. Just go to your labs each week and you'll be fine
