Despite some of the negative comments, I believe Dr. Kapoor is an excellent teacher. He gives plenty of examples straight from the textbook, so if you study, do the homework, and ask questions, then you'll easily get an A in the class.

goes through each and every step so that you understand what is going on

His method of teaching makes the class easy to follow, and easy to pass as long as you show up and do most of your work. He does tell you "You should have learned that in your previous course." Other than that, it's an easy class, and he's a good professor

His method is a really easy step by step method in a book that he is the author of. I failed this class twice before him, but in his class I aced the final and got a B.

This guy is amazing. He shows you how to do it five times in a row and then sets you on your own. If you can't do it, ask him. He will tell you and then it's over. Class is a breeze and I will enjoy the remainder of the semester.

I love to be in his class. He is so organised. he make the stuff so easy. He always explains the things, as if he is explaining to his own children. He really works hard for the students. He is an "excellent" professor.

He explains everything step by step. He gives you a review sheet with EXACTLY what's on the test.

As he would say, he "bottle-feeds" his class, & bad grades give him "hearburn". Good if you want CLEAR step-by-step instructions (he uses dif. colored chalk for each step!) but don't mind not having a personal relationship with your prof- he's very distant/cold. Merciful if he sees u improve at end. I got an A after two Ds. Get his EZ Math Cards!

Kapoor was great! Layed everything out very clearly and took time to answer all questions. He's also very skilled at math and encouraged us to do well also. Would take again!

Basically makes you feel like an idiot if you answer a question wrong. As long as you take notes and know how to do the problems you should be fine (gives you a sheet with the exact types of problems that will be on the test). Not the nicest teacher but is an easy B if you practice the problems he gives you.

Exams are hard, no formula sheets given but his class examples and the ones in a little "notecard book" he wrote ($18) are the same that will be on the exams. HW is hard, just work in groups/partners to make it easy but I did nothing really and got a B (would've been higher but I blew off quizes). Good if you just want to copy notes and get through

Favorite teacher yet, made hard material easy to do

Very Intelligent Professor, he has a genuine interest in the material and wants to see every student do well. He gives review sheets for tests and takes a class to do a review day. If you do the homework and study it is not difficult to attain a B or higher. Also he has funny and interesting stories that he sometimes shares about grad school.

He genuinely wants all of his students to do well, he will let you come in as early as you need to start a test. He allows the class to decide what day the test/quiz will be on, and he provides a formula sheet. He expects you to "be a prisoner in your home" to study like he did, so if you don't like to work then you're in trouble.

He loves math, and he loves teaching teaching math. He expects you to study hard, like he did, but is willing to work around your personal life, ONLY if your willing to work with him. The first day he sets rules, and god help you if you break them. I liked him, he is upfront in what he expects, and is blunt, but you learn from him, and lean well.

If you try in his class he will help you even on test!!!! Great teacher

Hands down, the best math professor at the school. Literally (his words) hooks you up to a Calculus I-V, and feeds you what you need to know. He's always available during office hours, and will spend a whole class going over the homework if need be. Students who complain about this teacher expect everything to be given to them. Grow up.

If you listen you will succeed...Enough said. He knows his stuff and can provide you with what you need to pass the class

He is paternal, something many younger people seem to find offensive. If you are a "serious" student, you will sort through what is intended to teach you personal responsibility, and accountability for your own actions. It is after all, up to you. I LOVED his class.

Awesome teacher will definatley take him for all my math

Dr. Kapoor is not easily relatable to students, which may cause him to seem rude, but it is great when you want someone to intimidate you to review! Though he speaks quietly and in an accent, his organization and lectures are SO easy to understand. Links all information together and gives great examples. Not only goes by the book's formatting, but inputs his own comments. Gives all info before tests and quizzes! Easy A!

Dr. Kapoor was never my teacher, but when the other teachers would get me so confused that I went to get some help, he was always there, and always willig to help. Great guy with a great attitude.

Dr Kapoor has a passion for teaching and is very thorough. Anytime you have questions, he will drop whatever he is doing to clarify for you. This is my 2nd Math w/ him and will cont. to follow him throughout my collage life. Fantastic!! Inspirational!! And dont bother coming to his class if your not serious about learning!

He gives out a test format which is EXACTLY the same types of problems in EXACTLY the same order. So I don't understand how people don't get an "A"! He doesn't end up checking homework btw.

Really cares that his students succeed. Gives ample warning of what will be on tests and willing to answer all questions. Goes "off book" to explain things more simply and clearly. Awesome teacher!

Very nice man and very passionate. Attended every class and most of the time he actually let us choose the date of our tests as a class. But if Math is not your best subject and you have trouble keeping up, this class may be difficult. He has a very heavy accent and speaks very quickly. He doesn't explain problems enough to understand easily.

This guy is very smart, no doubt in my mind that he knows what he is doing. BUT, he goes so quickly. Once you learn one section you are on something else. I remember most from high school and I am not sure if I would be doing so well if I didn't. His explanations are easy to follow for the most part but if you have a ? he makes you feel dumb.

First, just because you suck at math doesn't mean Dr Kapoor is a bad teacher. The methods he teaches are extremely clear, and he will literally answer any math related question at any time. He makes sure you know exactly what you will need for his tests and quizzes and lets students vote on when the have them, within reason. Would take again.

No, he is not a very nice guy, but you don't come to college to make friends with your professors. This man is one of the greatest math teachers I have EVER encountered. Completely changed the way I look at math and was my saving grace for calculus. Take him if you are NOT lazy and willing to put effort towards learning.

Dr. Kapoor is a nice professor. He is very knowledgeable. His lessons are very clear, but he goes fast, which is the reason I like his class. But if your math is not very good, don't expect him to go back to teach what you should learn in your prior classes. He will give out a exam format, which is the same type of questions as the exams.

I would only recommend him if you are committed to your studies. He has an oldschool style of teaching, using only the textbook and chalkboard.But he has a love for the subject which both helps and hurts his teaching. He can be impatient at times if he feels you are not putting forth 100%.I personally think he curves your grades if he see's effort.

I was terrible at math all my life. I hated math. My father and brother were genius at it, but me, I'd just cry when they'd try to explain. Dr. Kapoor made me love math. He was so logical and methodical. I wish I'd known my whole life math made so much sense. That said, he doesn't take garbage from students who don't want to be there. Many drop out

If you miss a class then you will be stuck playing catch up. Remember he has office hours and you should use them. He is very helpful; he gives you many chances to pass the class, but you have to make an effort in helping yourself.

This is not an instructor that you will won't to give attitude to. Remember he is there to help and teach you, not babysit. Dr. Kapoor is extremely knowledgeable. He is always willing to talk to students during office hours. Don't miss class or it will hectic to catch up. I would take him again.

Amazing professor. Great philosophy on learning and life. Does his best teaching during office hours, but make sure you go to class.

Review your fundamentals of algebra before you take calculus. He expects you to know them. Dr. Kapoor is a really great teacher. This class is hard, and I'm not great at math myself. However, he will explain concepts over and over, he's very patient and knowledgeable. Don't miss class! He gives good lectures. I got a B because I worked.

I really liked having Dr. Kapoor as my teacher. He can be a little critical sometimes if he calls on you, and you don't know the answer; but he will always explain things if you ask for help. He expects you to come to class and do the homework. The homework load is really easy though.

He gives you a lot of chances to make your grade better. He does give out a lot of quizzes but he announces them and asks the class which day they want to take it. For the exams he will give you a study guide and it is the same format so its easy to pass.

Dr. Kapoor is a very strict but reasonable professor. There are no freebies in the class. Do the homework thoroughly, ask questions, and practice problems for the math test. Very simple formula for success, but requires alot of discipline to get a passing grade.

He is slow, and to me it was good because I understand slowly. He is kind, and patient, and I made many mistakes. I was happy to be with such a caring professor!

What most beneficial is that the homework problems will be the EXACT on the exams. Lots of people dropped his class but towards the end he pulls an Oprah and gives everyone a whole letter grade up. He has a weird humor but he makes calculus SUPER easy. Don't give up on him, all you need to pass with an A is know how to do EVERY homework problem!

Don't understand the negativity. I tripped up on remedial math prior to taking his class (failed, lol). But I did very well in his pre-calc class. He curved everyone and I got an A. Most students were in the B and Cs. I made a high B otherwise. He is not a very long-winded profressor. His lectures were concise.

His lectures were very boring. We used web assign for his class, so I found myself teaching myself how to do problems to avoid lectures. Always do the homework, because those are the same questions that are on the quizzes and test, with different numbers. I prefer him over Prof. Messenger.
