His presentation in class is very clear. He tells student what should be known.

improving... clear notes and spend a lot of time for preparing the leactures.

A little boring. The exams are not too hard, and not that many tricky questions. Good marker.

Be patient, he is not bad.

I have to say that his lectures are boring.U have to study a lot by urself,but his midterms are not that hard than I thought, and he is an easy marker.His quiz is really easy if u do all his homework.

easy quizes and okay midterms...shows lots of examples...not great but okay to take his course...

i have to agree, his class is boring. But he's a nice guy, the quizes are easy, and midterms are not hard at all if u actually spent time to study. I actually enjoyed his class, and i got an A+, hahaha!

One of my fav math profs in the dept. he is a good teacher and carefully goes over everything and shows lots of examples. he is quite an easy marker too and his quizes are easy as long as you study highly reccomended

i think he's a good instructor..easy on everything..

Hard course, quizes are great primers for midterms. Eugene is always willing to help a student that is willing to learn.

i liked this teacher very much.i didnt have trouble following his lectures because he was organized and clear.as for the others who didnt like him,they probably didnt do their homework and expected to get an A.well,that's not how it works with math.

I had him for both 1170 and 1152. He goes over everything in great detail, pay attention. His pace is perfect, slow and steady and you're not racing to finish in the last few days. He does have an accent, but it's not killer. He knows his stuff you can trust what he puts on board. Excellent prof.

This is one of the cases when you shouldn't believe everything that you read He is an excellent prof helpful and clear easy to follow and understand Very organized! If you attend lectures final is not a problem No pop-up quizes, marked assignments or surprises of any kind that may lower your GPA

He's an excellent teacher whose lectures are organized and well-structured. If you study consistently (ie. the problems he recommends) you should not have any problems on MT's or Final. Very generous marker and is always prepared to help.

Clear and concise, with a bit of an accent. Good, solid teacher.

Eugene is a great math teacher. His exams are not hard, and he grades them generously. He is helpful and friendly, and way better than the guy i had for math 1171.

Highly recommended! Always well-prepared, clear and very helpful!

very good teacher...helpfull if u have any questions...only problem is his accent...but u get used to it...but still hes a very good teacher

guys,don't use your high school maths mark to judge the difficulty...getting 95 is extremely simple for asian students...i mean those came to here after graduating from asian high schools...i have to say calculus 1271 is like grade 11 level in Hong Kong...

Best Math teacher I've ever had. His quizzes are easy, he marks them generously, and he basically tells you exactly what is going to be on the midterms and quizzes. Does not try and trick you at all, I tried less hard and did much better than in any other math course ever.

FANTASTIC

He's so~~~~~~~~~ nice, I can only say. He tries to give u every mark that it's possible. Maybe his accent is a lil bit unclear, but it's okay, it's not a big problem. Seriously, he's trying to help u to get a high mark. Take him !

An amazing teacher! Very clear in his explanations and no tricky questions on either the quizzes or the midterms. If you attend class, you'll just have to do the problems from the textbook..He takes all the theory and does tons of examples! Highly recommend him to anyone considering taking Calculus.

No Comments

He is really helpful with my math study,I have never feel such interested in math course~I asked lot Qs,and he answered me very clear~his quiz are easy,as well as HW.He always make the textbook easier to help you get it,join his class and taking notes--that's the most important thing!

Dr. Belchev is a GREAT math teacher! He's very clear in class, provides great examples, and if you show up for class, you should be able to do most problems. His quizzes are VERY straightforward and his midterms are too!! Very generous marker and if he sees that you put in the effort, he'll do everything to help!

He is the best professor in the college. He is clear,organized,and helpful. By the way, he has a really easy marker...that's perfect!!!

He is the best teacher of langara college~clear lectures(you don't need to read textbook anymore),organized methods(with his notes-that's important!),and funny~he is also really helpful,you can ask him at anytime,he will give you the clearest answers even through the e-mail.Take his class,if you want to get A and higher~

he is the best teacher I've ever had at langara. highly recommended!!!

Eugene is a nice teacher. He really cares if his students or doing well or not. If you get office help from him, it may seem as if he's attacking you, but then whatever he says is the truth. It's really up to the student if he/she wants to do well. Nevertheless, he's a pretty decent teacher.

welcome back in the fall,Eugene~highly expect to take your course again~miss my great 1174 life~and highly recommend!!!!!!!!

the best pro. of langara!! highly recommend!!

great notes,very open and helpful.I absolutly recommend Dr. Belchev to whoever wants to do great on calc 2,but you gotta do youe homework and prepare for every single quiz.

I like him, I had him for 2 semesters...he might not be the best teacher in terms of "teaching skills"...but i think he has "heart"...i mean he actually CARES...even though most of the time it gets boring and sleepy during the 2nd half of the class...but I still LOVE being in his class~~~and midterms are okay, reasonable~~~

I really like Belchev. At first it was a bit weird and boring, but over time it's better. He teaches well enough, I generally understand most of his lectures. He really encourages you to participate in class or go ask him some questions. Also, he gives homeworks, which I love. Quizzes and mid terms are based on the homeworks. He's recommended!

Eugene is so great. He is so organized and his lessons are very well planned out. I've had him twice, and while his course isn't 'easy', it prepares you for future math and economics.

Eugene is very knowledgable and enthusiastic in the subject. He tells you what you need to know for final exam. His accent is acceptable. you'll get used to it. He makes things simple and easy to understand. A generous marker too. A great teacher!!

He's a very nice guy, he knows his math and he knows how to teach it. Do your hw, you'll do well on his tests and on the final. Go ahead and take him, this is as much fun as you'll ever have in calculus.

He is a great instructor. U won't regret taking his course. His accent is fine. Weekly quiz are a breeze if u attend his lectures and worked on the assignments.

he is a good teacher. choose his course ,,,,,

By a large margin the easiest and nicest math teacher that you may ever hope to get.

Hes a really good teacher. Very helpful when you go to his office hrs. His notes really suck so u should read the text after each lecture. But his tests r very fair. Similar questions from the textbook. Make sure you do all the hwk cuz quizzes will b similar to those. Overall! hes great!

I took his math1174 last year,he's the best teacher I 've ever had in our school!!!His class is really helpful and the grade that he will give is higher than ur imagination.Do all his homework,it seems a little bit much,but good for the weekly quiz!

excellent professor! one of the best math teachers I have met

Eugene is my life! Amazing professor. Very clear, and very entertaining to boot.

Took 1174 with him 2007spring, got a A+. He explains concepts well, and talks about shortcuts too when solving problems. Do the assigned homeworks, keep up with his lectures, a minimum A- should not be hard to get.

Very good teacher. Tests are exactly like quizzes. HELP IS ONLY GIVEN TO THOSE WHO ASK FOR IT so for the people that complain about that they didnt ask for help. Hes very clear only point he got off was cause of that accent lol. Do your homework and you'll get a good mark.

Great teacher... one of my favorite teacher at langara. He gives out pratice exam that are similar to the midterm. Not a hard teacher if you attend class and do the homework. Overall, great teacher. =)

excellent!!!!the best teacher in math department, clear notes, exams really base on his homework and examples, not a hard marker, math king

He is a great instructor, initially it was hard to understand his accent.Every exam was from notes and sample exams.Numerical Analysis was hard but this guy made it easy. Strong recommendation to take him.

Ignore Bad comments!!! Trust me his course will increase ur gpa

He gave me my first A+ in math! Questions on the exams are based on the exam outlines and sample exams(with solutions) he gave before. Do all your assignments and prepare well by using the sample exams, then you will get a good grade.

Great teacher!!!! People say he is hard to understand but his accent is not that bad. He was helpful and his h/w assignments and quizzes are exactly are what on the test!! Great teacher!!!!

Great teacher, I had Allan before and dropped his class because i was failing. This year with Eugene I have 88

Take his class! Midterms are strictly based on the quizzes and the exam outlines he provides. If you study those, you'll do really well. But you have to attend his class, his notes are super clear and helpful. He only teaches what you need to know. He's a really good teacher for precalc.

Really nice guy! Good lecture, good notes, good exercise and good-looking.My favorite professor!

Really nice professor, very clear and helpful. He will teach you very useful skills. Highly recommend! I got A+, if I can make it, everyone can do it as well!

I love math and I always have. Eugene is very nice, although sometimes he makes unnecessarily rude comments regarding your questions or your answers (but that is rare). Weekly quizzes are easy if you did your assignments (one number-y question, one word problem), and midterms are exactly like the sample ones. Accent is not difficult to understand.

He seems like he would be better suited for higher calculus as he doesn't go into detail, nor shows steps on how to achieve the answer. If you ask though he is more than willing to show you how. Like most math teachers, he has an accent and grammar is understandably satisfactory. Great tests but asks the hardest questions!

One quiz per week. Easy if you do your assignment(one simple math question, one word problem), and midterms are the same as his sample midterms. Accent is easy to understand.

Such a great and helpful guy. He does notes in class with you and his examples are very helpful and often show up in quizes and exams. His practice exams are very similar to the test. Math 1174 topics are generally difficult so you must work hard to get a good grade but Eugene bumps your mark up if your final exam mark is higher than term mark.

Good Man

Definitely would take his class. Very clear, funny and a good marker. He will help you out with ur marks if u get a good final grade.

Nice teacher.He will give you a nice result if you did well on the final.

Nice teacher!He will give you a best result if you do well on the final.:)

I had him for Math 1171. Glad that he teaches many Math courses. He is a great prof. Cant wait to have him for Math 2362! Quizzes every week, prepares you for the exams.

I like his accent and his neat handwriting.

What a great professor, I can tell he is the best math professor in Langara. While test is not too hard, he can give you a good final grade if you do well on final exam.

Real analysis was my third course with him. Very, very helpful during office hours, very, very kind. No practice midterms for this course unfortunately but there was a fun and educational presentation. Hard course, I don't know how some students did it. Accent is easy to understand, teaching is confusing sometimes though. 100x better than J Jang.

neat notes and helpful examples on class. fair marker. he's nice too but his exam is not that easy.

very friendly and reasonable prof, work hard and try to do well in the final, he will give you the best grade he can.

Great instructor. The notes are super clear. Although there will be regular quizes, they are helpful for your midterm and final exams. The most important thing is, he will give you a good grades if you have a good final scores. Plus, he is very nice!

I took 2 classes with him Calculus II and Linear algebra. Both times my experience was different. To do well in his class you must review everyday, weekly quizzes are really helpful to test your understanding and preparations for exams. He is really nice, makes time to see you outside office hours as well if needed. One of the best math prof.

This is my third course with him. He is always helpful, fair and responsible. Make sure you attend all the classes and take all the notes (which are super helpful for midterms and final). Even though there will be regular quiz in class, it is not a bad thing, it helps you review and understand what you have learned in the past weeks.

Very Knowledgeable and cares about his students.

His notes are cohesive and cover the material. Eugene will explain the motiviation for each topic and approach. Be ready to do some work! His seasoned sense of humor makes an otherwise dry class, a very pleasant exprience. Best thing since sliced bread.

he has some dry humor, pretty fun lecs. His midterms are actually really easy if you study the questions he goes thru during his lectures, he really wants students to do well , he does not care much for computation errors which really proves that he gets the important part of math, the final is brrruuuuutal tho so make sure you do well in class

His lectures are fast-paced and lack in details, BUT you will get used to it in the end. There is a quiz every week, BUT most of them are basic problems. His exams are quite difficult, BUT you will do fine if you solve every textbook practice questions he gives you and sample exams posted on D2L. Good luck. He's a great professor if you try hard.

He was one of the best profs I had at Langara He provided very good examples in the notes that motivated me to study more and work more around the concept He is very knowledgeable and very good at understanding your questions and providing you a good explanation He is very careful in answering questions which made me want to learn more from him

Class average is around 50%. Must read the textbook. Must ask him questions. Must do homework. His notes are very helpful. I will definitely take him for Math 2371.

Excellent. Must do HW

Not a bad prof at all. Uses good, nuanced examples when teaching certain units, and provides sample exams which make studying for the midterms much easier. Weekly quizzes and final were really tight on time, and lecture may be hard to understand right away if you don't prepare. I'm definitely not a math guy and I did alright though.

He is a great proffesor. really helpful and caring. bumps, the grade, gives his best in class definitely would take again

He's pretty great and really nice. Would definitely take him again. For calc 3, he focuses on only the calc 3 materials which is great because we don't have to deal with heavy integrals/derivatives (calc2). All homework is on Webassign. Quiz every 2 weeks. Midterms were ok and the final was surprisingly hard. Zoom lectures but also recorded.

I often get lost in Eugenes lectures halfway through class, but he otherwise gives very straightforward notes. Much of my success in the class came from reading the textbook and doing all the practice problems he assigns, but he is also very patient to help students during his office hours. He is a very polite and chill prof overall.

Do all the assignment homework and extra practice and youll be fine. If you review all prior webassigns prior to his exams, youll be well prepared. He is an easy grader and doesnt rush you at all during exams (bc he starts the time late and gives extra time) I couldnt follow his lectures so the homework problems really helped.

I had Eugene for both 1271 and 2371 and he truly is a great prof. He doesnt express it often, but he cares for his students and wants them to do well. His lectures are okay, but he is always very patient to go back on a topic if you dont understand it. If he sees that you are working hard throughout the sem, you will be rightfully rewarded.

Eugene is an experienced teacher. His course schedule is very reasonable and the materials are very useful. The content of his class covers all the knowledge points, and the difficulty of the exam is moderate. If you study hard enough, you will get a good grade.

Provides insight for students to be successful if they attend the lectures. Provided more strategic methods to solving certain problems than the textbook provided, and the problem sets made this class easy to build intuition. Clearly understandable/provided neat notes, to the point where note taking is not necessary. No forced formula memorization.

He treats lectures as reviews, which may be intimidating but in general its best practice to pre-read chapters prior to lectures, especially for a topic like Linear Algebra. His office hours are very educational, he ensures you understand each step to towards the answer for a question, and I only regret not attending more.

Eugene does a good job explaining concepts and questions. His notes were useful for quizzes. The class average when I took the course for quizzes was about 50% but if you learn how to do all of the questions in the notes, you will get perfect. I didn't study too hard for his quizzes either. Just did notes questions and WebAssign

His lectures are very well-paced, and his approach to the problems is really straightforward. Overall he's an amazing tutor who focuses on the quality of his lecture and is a fair grader.

Eugene was a fantastic Professor for Calc2 during fall semester of 2023. He was good at explaining concepts, quizzes were similar to the midterm exams, he was very good for 1-on-1 help, and overall a lenient marker. Would recommend if, like in any math course, you're willing to put in the work.

Eugene was a good professor, he joked around with us and was very helpful when I asked for feedback. The lectures have lots of content so I recommend staying on top of the material. There weren't many quizzes during the class so each one was worth 5%. Webassign is optional and midterms are pretty good if you understand the concepts.

Eugene is a decent professor who makes an effort to explain concepts clearly. The class can be challenging, but staying on top of the material and using helpful resources like Unstuckstudy alongside the lectures and textbook can go a long way. Overall, a manageable course if you're willing to put in the work.

His lectures are optional, but he skips steps in his notes which make them hard to learn off of so attending his lectures are crucial. His exam questions are usually different to the practice he provides, but he has clear outlines detailing the topic and questions you will see in his exams. Take him if you have a strong foundation in precalculus.
