He has a funny accent and has trouble spelling. He looks like he's going to explode at any moment in his funny sweaters--as a professor, he's alright. He always gives out review sheets before the test and it's usually exactly as it appears on the reviews.

This professor cares more about proofs than actually solving problems, which sometimes makes it difficult for students to really do the load of hw given. However, he does simplify topics which is helpful. Overall, a nice guy and a fair professor.

He's pretty straight forward. Do your hw, and understand the questions-all hw is due before each exam. Easy 10%. There is 5 total exams. He drops 1 if attendance is good (x<=3). His exams are somewhat like his reviews. They're either 10 or 7 questions on each exam, there is no extra credit if you don't ask for it. Everything prepares you for final.

Tips:If you're not good at math, don't get lost with his proofs, just bare with him until he reaches the practice problems.Do all your hw,go to his office hours, ask questions if you don't understand.Go see him one on one for trig. sub., series, & leib. rule

This Professor is hilarious and is very helpful. All you need is to do the home works, pay attention in class and ask any questions if you don't understand right away.

This professor spends way to much time theorizing the problems rather than showing exactly how to complete the problem, which causes a lot of confusion and time wasted going over the theory. Plus he uses the free Calculus Textbook provided by the school which is a huge flaw since the textbook has huge learning curves.

This professor was good took his time explaining everything he expects homeworks for every class his exams are from the homeworks he even lets you know what kind of questions of the homework is going to be on the exams. I'm glad I took this guy for calculus 2 in the summer he was very clear with the lectures.

Best math professor ever. Explains very clearly although if you are naturally good at math his class will be very boring for you, since he tends to explain problems very slowly. It was great for me since I am not good at math and I am glad I took him

Best math professor I ever had his exams are like the homeworks just different numbers he even lets you know what type of problems from the homeworks is on the exams. But on the other hand he is a very tough grader he will take points off for small things on exams however I highly recommend this professor in the future.

I currently Professor Rozenblyum for math right now and hes probably hands down one of the best math teachers Ive ever had. Though he sometimes rushes through the material, hes extremely patient with the class, cares about everyone understanding the problems, and sometimes jokes around with the class. He doesnt assign a lot of hw.

He has an accent but is still a fair teacher. Homework for every class but will collect the homework before the next exam. Attendance is mandatory for catching up to his lecture material and he will drop the lowest grade of the five exams if your attendance is below 6 absences. If you have no good alternative, take his class.

I would not recommend this professor at all. I thought he would be decent due to rate my professor but it was the opposite. A class of 28 students in the beginning and 12 left at the end. He specifically stated Its not his problem if majority of the class fails. In my opinion if the majority of the class is failing, there has to be something wrong

Professor Alexander Rozenblyum is very intelligent and experienced. He explains complex math problems to almost like 1+1 and takes his time to show each step of the way to solve the problem even though there is a lot of material to cover. He respects his students as long as you respect him. He got jokes when the class seems slow. Great professor!

Best math professor in my life. I like his teaching style, he gives basic rules of every chapter. He knows which rules you can't understand because he has experience of 17 years. 4 exam(60%), final(30%), HW(10%).If your attendance is good, he will count 3 exam which are you got highest score.

This professor is fair and as long as you study enough, and focus in class then you would pass. Most of the grading criteria is through tests so you MUST come prepared during them.

This professor was awful. Not only did he have a hard to understand accent, but he did not teach anything well thanks to constantly making mistakes. He's overall terrible at teaching. You could sit there for an hour with him talking and you'd learn nothing but what color pen he's using. Avoid this bomb of a teacher at all costs.

Only take his class if you're good in math and don't need additional help because his teaching pace is extremely fast. He only does problems from webwork in class then moves on to next chapter.

He does answer questions and is accessible outside of class but the course itself is very hard, he's fastpaced and only grades you on a couple of things.
