Professor Allen is an awesome math teacher. As someone who has struggled with math in the past I appreciate his teaching style, and concern with how his student are doing. He is very thorough in his lectures which results in him going over the designated end time, but that's the worst thing about him. He gives fun bonuses on his tests though!

Dr. Allen is by far the best professor i've had in any subject thus far in my schooling. He is very patient and is willing to give extra help outside of class with videos, study groups, ect. If you are ever confused he will always use different teaching techniques to help you understand it better. He also is very good about giving partial credit :)

He is truly one of the best teachers I have ever had in my life. He is knowledgeable, funny, gives us multiple resources to do well, quick to grade, patient, gets back to you almost immediately if you have any questions (even if it is a HW question at 11pm), etc. I cannot say enough good things about him. He is everything you want in a professor.
