Different approach to teaching... one day of lecture, one day of homework. If you understand the material, you don't have to go on the hw days. He takes 2/3 tests and you can be exempt from quizzes if you do problems on the board. Not sure how he would be if you don't understand the material right away.

He gives the students many opportunities to get an A in the class, however, many students don't take advantage of it.

Teymouri is awesome. Only has lecture on one day, the other day of class he goes over any homework questions. If you understand the homework, then you don't have to come to class. Never keeps you in class the whole period. Keeps math concepts simple, and all quizes and tests are the exact same questions on the homework, word for word. Reccomend him

Professor Teymouri is a great math teacher overall. While he may not care to learn your name, it is because he focuses on teaching you the material, which he does a thorough job of. Drops the lowest quiz and test, while both are mainly composed of old hw problems anyways. Would definitely recommend any of his classes.

If you do the homework, go to class, & make an effort, his quizzes/tests are really easy. His passion for mathematics shows through his teaching, especially when applying math to real life. he is brilliant.

Professor Teymouri is an interesting teacher. Gives you 3 tests and 3 quizzes. Your grade is based on the 2 highest tests and quizzes. Only downfall is if you don't get a 5 out of 5 on the quizzes he counts it as a 0 so work hard for those quizzes. From my experience it is a hard course, but the professor tries his best to explain it the simplest w

He's not as good as I was expecting. Sure his tests and quizzes are his homework problems, but he gives next to no partial credit on his exams which makes them so nerve wracking. He's very knowledgeable in calculus, but he has a tendency to move too fast during lectures and does very few problems. Don't expect an easy A.

Teymouri is your absolute best option for calculus. He has a very clear grading system, two tests for the course, and a few scattered quizzes. Lets you skip problems on each. Can bring formulas into each. Tests and quizzes are based entirely on homework. Lecture one day and homework the other. Attendance not mandatory, but show up!

Easy class and clear grading, but the way he talks to his students makes me hate his class. He hasn't gone one period without saying his student(s) should drop out of school - once he said if someone did badly on a quiz they should jump off a bridge. He always tells us to email him and then will poke fun at people who do in front of the class.

Teymouri sends you the homework answers so you don't need to do the homework or get the textbook for the class. The grade is based on your performance on quizzes and exams, and he gives you multiple chances to get full points on quizzes. Attendance is not mandatory and you only need to show up on Tuesdays.

I would definitely take a class with him again. It was a struggle because we where graded only on 4 things (2 exams, 2 quizzes), which makes it very hard to do well in the class because if you do bad on one exam or quiz then it's hard to make up points. One benefit to his class is he does allow a formula sheet which is helpful on the exams.
