The best prof this university has for Math

EEK, he holds the board for support and gets too excited about calc

The only course at this university I have enjoyed, and the best teacher here.

they don't call him coach for nothing, very very encouraging & helpful

always something new to look forward to at his lectures, never a dull moment!

Ur mom knows how to do many things but she can't factor prime numbers... awesome!!

very good prof for math and pure math courses.

He's the reason I liked first year math.

absolutely AMAZING professor. does his best to make sure that everyone understands what's being discussed. by far the best of all the different math137 section lectures i've visited.

AWESOME prof!! Knows what he's talking about and actually seems to want to help his students! Also makes his classes interesting by being excited.

Awesome prof, so cool, and the Pure Mathematics head for the school...could use a "Bro" though, guy's got a little man-boob thing going on.

He tends to get over-excited about calculus. Funny guy. Sometimes he goes a bit too fast. <jub-jub-jub> Very entertaining and animated I have to say.

If instructors at UW were like cars, Zorzitto would be a Lexus.

Very animated, very energetic, funny, fair - what else can anyone ask for?

He rules

Incredibly energetic prof! Makes classes fun, and explains things well. What more can you ask for?

Best first yr math professor by far in Waterloo.. got 90s in both of his class! :)

I skip his classes for about one month. anyway,i like him

Great prof to have for an early morning class. Especially when it's calc.

dafdsaf

The best prof you can ever get for first year calculus.. he has the amazing ability of making really tough things look real easy.

keeps the subject interesting, very funny

He's okay but he skips a LOT of material.

Great guy...People might say that he kisses up to the class, but he's really very dedicated, and cares for his students. He even held mid-term and final review sessions, which only the course coordinator held apart from him. And people who say that Prof Zorzitto is not smart should know that he is Head of the Pure Math Department of the university.

Sometimes Zorzitto can seem a bit intimidating and eccentric, but once you've been in his class for a bit, you start to really love him. He's an incredible professor whose lectures are well structured. He makes difficult concepts easy to understand, and is hilarious. It's true sometimes he seems to get flustered and out of breath, but it's his styl

It seems that most raters are from MATH 135/136/137/138. From the MATH 146 class of Winter 2006, I think we unanimously agree that Zorzitto's style is exemplary. He brings to attention the most easily-glossed over material---often very small things that cause confusion that snow-balls later on. Very intelligent, enthusiastic, and humorous (shirts!)

Oh definitely the shirt!!! "If I'm wrong I'll eat my shirt" He was wrong and spend the day with alphabits and gingerbread making a shirt to eat! Absolutely hillarious professor, great teacher, great person, really fun person to be around! He is my inspiration for a teaching style when I become a prof. Anyone not having this teacher is missingout!

Haha, the shirt was hilarious. Truly an awesome prof with an excellent sense of humor. The class was a delight!

Awesome fun and you learn a lot

Very enthusiastic, and he covered interesting material very clearly. One of my favourite courses in the term. Recommended.

There have been 69 ratings on him. Today, I finally decided to break him out of 69. This will make the 70th rating on him. Zorzitto is the best math prof, as crispy as Tortitto.

Four times a week, for a whole year, he definitely made my day! Extremely clear and caring about his students. He really knows his stuff, and he is the most helpful man on earth! AND he gave us mathies a reading WEEK, not some crappy reading days. Definitely the best prof EVER! PLUS he's hilarious! I absolutely LOVE him to death!!!

Absolutely wonderful professor. Extremely helpful and energetic, hilarious to watch, and very knowledgable. It certainly felt like he was coming down to our mortal level to teach, and you could sense the aura of expertise about him. Absolutely highly recommended. The course wasn't easy, but easy courses are boring courses.

I loved him so much. Absolutely amazing prof. He could teach it a bit harder though. A bit too slow on the lectures, but still amazing!

good prof, good style

Funny Prof, cares a lot about his students. I would recommend taking his courses.

I enjoy his lectures most. Especially his interaction with class, his answers to our questions.

Beats around the bush too much for my liking. Very wordy with proofs and statements that can be otherwise stated in a much more direct and brief manner. Sometimes goes overtime/misses things because he spent too much time beating around the bush. He does try to get the point across though. Just not very efficiently.

Talented in telling jokes in class,haha

The best prof. ever! Very clear, answers all questions, covers material very well, extremely helpful!

Very enthusiastic about what he teaches. Makes the subject that much more interesting and helps you pay attention in class.

The best prof ever! Explains everything in a great way, so that you don't just learn formulas, but you actually understand how you got it and why you are doing it, in this way you never forget them!

I had this guy for MATH 137 and 138 and he's awesome! He lectures to teach his students and is really good at explaining concepts. He makes Calculus easy!

He skipped a lot of material, so I had to catch up by looking at textbooks or online stuff. And sometimes just too many things squeezed in too little time... hard to understand...

He could be great at teaching regular classes, but should not teach advanced classes. His approach to bellcurving is making the exams easy. His proofs contain far too many heuristics. His assignments are frustrating because he just tells you what to do, eliminating any original thought. Spends 10 minutes each class reviewing the previous class

lol you guys are so troll. his class average was like a 50. good prof though

He spends a lot of time reviewing the previous class and so we miss some material. Also, his notes blackboard notes are sloppy and he gives some different proofs than the ones shown in the text. However, he's pretty funny and is really good at engaging the class.

Too hand-wavy. Sometimes he skipped a proof, which was relatively important, and said to just read the notes online. Also he didn't leave any room for students to think, all the material was presented without interacting with the class at all. Good at clarifying stuff afterwards, but not so good at presenting it. Not a bad prof though.

Amazing Professor. So helpful! Always open to helping his students. But watch out, he doesn't always include everything in his lectures

Amazing Professor. Interesting and hilarious. Made the content extremely clear

A good prof. He does everything the way it should be done, thus good at scholarstic. He is easy going and are helpful outside of class. He only talk to the front row, so if you want to take his class, make sure you take the front row. He also tries to find example that is common and easy to understand. He also post all his notes, which is convient.

Awesome prof, highly recommended! The way he phrased things was funny (often appeared in mathNEWS profquotes!). He explained concepts very clearly. He wanted students to succeed. He really knew his stuff.

Awesome for both people trying to pass the course and for people looking for 95+

Amazing prof! Very enthusiastic and actively engages the class in the lesson. Writing can be a bit sloppy sometimes, but his printed notes are very clear and detailed enough to make up for it, and his explanations just make sense. His assignments will really make you think!

My favourite math prof at UW! Such a funny guy, and he's so talented at explaining concepts. You can also tell he cares a lot about his students. After the marks varied a lot on the midterm he was so generous that he changed the marking scheme so that if your final was better than your midterm, it would be worth 75% instead of 60%. Such boss. Wow.

Exceptional professor that really loves teaching the subject, and does a fantastic job at it.

Professor Zorzitto is hilarious! I am not a fan of calculus but he made calculus very understandable with his clear explanations (sometimes redundant but I felt that the repetition actually helped me).

He loves teaching, he was always doing his best to teach something new and necessary to students. Every time he helps the students outside of class, even before or after office hours. He made me love this course.

Excellent prof! The best prof I have ever meet. This is the only course I attended in every class. He makes his class really interesting and challenging.

Zorzitto is the best of the three calculus professors I have had. His notes are very useful and his class progression is his own marble David. He walks in circles around the room and leans into students desks to address then briefly while lecturing with upmost liveliness. Great at teaching advanced sections!

Frank Zorzitto is such a great instructor! Had the honour of taking two classes with him! His "This's Mickey Mouse" is too classic! He is so genuine and so easy to talk to. If you needed help and went to his office hours he will patiently explain over and over again! Hope he comes back to teach in the future!
