Understood when I kept having to leave early due to my sister being sick and other urgent family matters, didn't mark me absent. He is a great teacher with good lectures and curve and doesn't grade that harshly, he's funny/interesting to talk to even out of class. Answers questions well. 5/5 teach in all honesty, just do your work and u'll be fine.

Very mean-spirited and self-absorbed professor. I don't really care how many languages you learn, can you please teach me math? Honestly seemed to take delight when others failed. Should have taken the advice of others here to avoid

Blendi makes this course look UNFAIRLY difficult. He goes way too hard on the students. He grades very harshly. On the latest quiz, he gave everyone the shortest amount of time to complete, and because of that, the majority didn't do well. I never did so BAD in a math course ever, coming from a student who's always exceeded in math.

Blendi is honestly NOT for the weak, but he does explain every subject very thoroughly. The only issue is that he goes through some problems a bit TOO quickly because the man is a genius and he forgets to explain very simple steps that could lose some students. His personality is intense, but does have a sense of humor. He encourages participation
