The one time I went to him for help, not only did he NOT explain himself, he insulted me in front of the class. Exam questions were vague and yet credit is taken off for inexplicable reasons regardless of whether or not the answer is correct.
Work is not difficult, yet he is not clear and does not go back to explain things, if you have a question you get refered to your notes.
It's hard to understand what he's talking about.
Took him fall 2002. Not a very personable teacher, but a very good teacher nonetheless. Course wasn't a piece of cake, but it wasn't extremely hard either. Pay close attention to lectures.
If you plan on passing Math 130 do not take Wan. I was in a full class of almost 90 people and when it came towards the last day to drop with a "W" a little over Half the class had droped it. and many others had told me they failed or got a C in
Its very hard to understand him because of his accent. He makes no sense when helping us. He goes way too fast and constantly has to be corrected by students.Very unfriendly and doesn't interact with his students at all. I might as well have taken an online class.
Wan does have a thick accent, but his accent shouldn't hinder your ability to understand what he's teaching. It's not English for God's sake. Do the homework, and ask questions. Try to understand what you're doing wrong. He is willing to help students, but I recommend you find help in the math lab
No English!
seriously....dont do it. all he does is write problems on the board then solve them. no explainations or anything. he thinks if you watch him do it you'll get it. honestly, im not good at math and never have been. and for those that feel that same way about math...save yourself an from a "F" or W
Wan is OK if you do the homework and attend school. He gave 10% extra credit if you attended and got the pop quizzes. He is not the most personable, but so what....
I enjoyed his class. He was very easy and very helpful. He gave us good notes and always let us know ahead of time what was going to be on the quizzes and exams. He got striaght to the point and did not stress about homework. Either you did it or not, that was up to you.
I took Dr. Wan for summer school and thought his teaching methods were awesome. I was terrible at mathematics but got an A in his class.
yes, he solves problems on the board, but that's how you learn math, by solving problems. the class is definitely not easy and requires a lot of work outside of the classroom, but I'm not there to be entertained. his accent was no problem, nor were his teaching methods.
He is boring Sorry to say it but its true his class its just lecture the whole time and he teaches without even caring about if students understood or not
EXTREMELY hard teacher. I had to drop this class in order not to fail. Does not answer questions or explain things very well. Also, it was a little hard to understand him. I wouldn't recommend.
extremely boring, doesnt really teach but does problems from sections on the board and your expected to understand. I failed!
Do the homework and attend school. He gave 10% extra credit. Yes he solved problems on the board >> he wants the homework done and attendance and if you go to class and do the work you wont have trouble with Wan
Clearest Math prof I ever got. Guess i have an A or B because of clarity. Most ppl dont like him coz he doesnt really "talk" to students but all questions asked were answered. Great teacher if you ask me. :)
DON'T TAKE THIS CLASS WITH HIM!! You will have a very hard time trying to understand him. Besides I don't know what all these people are talking about he is a good teacher, he is not!! His teaching method is not good at all and he doesn't clear questions.
I think you will understand him only if you are the same ethnic as he is, Asian or something like that. You can't understand him, his teaching style is nothing like you have see. He loves math, but is unhelpful and his test are hard. He shouldn't be teaching at this college, maybe somewhere out of the US. DON'T TAKE HIM, IF YOU DO YOU'LL BE SORRY!
Doesn't expalin anything to anyone. Gives homework like we're able to do it. Doesn't understand why his students don't understand math like him an is rude about it too. Stay Away! DO NOT TAKE ANY OF HIS CLASSES!!!
GOOD LUCK If you are planning to take this professor. He won't explain his errors.
Don't take him for this class or you will be sorry, he don't explain the problems plus don't expect to get any extra credits, OK!
booooooooooooooring. terrible grading system.
Dr. Wan is a decent teacher. You will get a B if you just study the material! He gives you a 4x6 card for tests and lets you use your notes & book for quizzes. I don't care for Trig too much but he actually explains anything you need or don't understand, all you have to do is ask.
Can't understand half of what he says in class.If you ask him to clarify something in class he will tell you that there isn't enough time.
he is realllly hard to understand during class! and he is terrible at explaining how to do the problems. he just does them on the board and expects u to understand just because he did it..but he doesnt care about being late!which could be a plus? but dont take him! you wont get a very good grade unless ur great at math
He is difficult to understand,and he doesn't explain well. I hate how he expects us to know things already.
Dr. Wan is not good if you are not especially astute at algebra, he races through problems really quickly and is not available for his students. He is not encouraging and his grading system is very difficult. You have to turn in what seems like half a telephone book of homework and by that time you have forgotten the beginning concepts to be tested
Dr. Wan goes to fast for you to understand anything. Im not dumb but math is my worst subject but if he went slower with the problems and how to work them out it would have been a lot more helpful.
EXTREMELY HARD TO UNDERSTAND! Thesse comments are truthful i took him anyways after reading what was on here, and ending up dropping. You can hardly make out what he's saying and he goes through the material really fast. Attendance is mandatory or else you'll fall behind. Don't take him if your not a math person! Nice guy though!! :)
I was taking him this semester and i had to drop him! There is no way that one can learn from him!!! He teaches very quickly and gives a lot of homework. The tests do not even look similar to the questions he goes over in class or in the homework!!! A waste of my time. DO NOT TAKE HIM!!!
His English isn't the best. Coming out of Highschool this is an easy class, but I don't recommend it for older people. He makes sure he gets through the whole book and there is a new lesson each day, so there is no time for re-teaching. He teaches upper level classes so he doesn't understand that pre-algebra is hard for some students.
110 is a fast-paced class. He was helpful in office hours with problems, but I had to drop as I was failing. Kind, patient. Grades on homework and tests. Use the math lab, it will help.
He is really a good teacher. He tries his best to teach all the things that we need to learn. He gives out a lot of homework, but its good for you to familiarize the topics. quizzes are very easy, plus its open book. The tests are fairly easy as long as you finish all the homework and review the chapters several times. This is an easy A class
Professor Wan is very helpful. Gives a lot of homework but it really helps you understand the lesson. As long as you keep up with it you should be okay. At the beginning of each class meeting he will answer any questions from the homework to make sure you understand. Very fun and sweet guy.
Professor Wan's lectures come straight out of the hwk takes time to expain everything too. Its great cause youre really prepared for whats to come when you work on all your hwk. The book is a must! Homework is a must as well otherwise good luck on the test. He often gives you a practice test which is very much like the real thing. Def recommend him
Dr Wan does have a slight accent but you can still understand him. Im really bad at Math but I still got a B in the class. Just make sure to do the hw. He's not the best teacher but he's definitely not the worst
This class is pretty hard. He teaches really fast. Quizzes and exams are very hard and frequent. Make sure you already have rough concept about statistics before taking his class. My class has dropped down from roughly 60 students to less than 15 students. This suggest that you should take another professor instead.
Mr. Wan is a really good teacher. He helped me alot. I think hes class is easy to people who already took the class once, if not then youll be lost. He's class is easy, just the homework you have to stay on top of it and make sure you study for exams. He is really helpful and eager for students to pass. He was a good teacher :)
This teacher is great. DON'T BELIEVE THE LOW RATINGS!!!! I took him at Cypress and Dr. Wan is VERY fair with tests/grading. He even uses some identical problems (from the chapter tests) for the final. He lets you keep the tests too to study from. He doesn't pick hard problems. Drops A to 88%. Lets you use note cards. What more do you want?
He is not horrible. The homework is helpful and a lot . You have to have a code . I wouldn't take him if you have a really hard time. If you are out of high school or taken before then he might be perfect.
He is hard. Do not take if you have problems with math because this class is a waste of time. He teaches fast and gives out a lot of homework.
mr wan is a nice guy but not the greatest teacher. he moves too fast and doesnt elaborate enough. if u struggle with math getting to a tutor and doing all ur HW is a MUST!take him at ur own risk. =/
By far the worst I have ever taken. I'm giving you fair warning,if you take him it will lower ur GPA. lectures have many mistakes and are rushed. he can't solve assigned HW. if you are good at learning from the book with NO help from teacher take this class. if this is ur last option for this course i would wait 'till next semester
He is not THAT bad, I have struggled with math my entire life. I passed his class with a C. You need to study, like any other class. If you make it to the half way point, your good. He lets you use a calculator and note cards. What more can you get. It's not the teacher, but how much a student puts into it!
If you have difficulty with math do not take him, he leaves alot of homework about 30 questions per section and he teaches around 2-3 sections per class meeting. He rushes through the lessons, he will help you if you need help with the homework.
Exam probs are time-consuming (not too hard) w/ a percentage of the class still working at time’s up. Exams are 10Qs (10 pts) w/ near perfection required for an A; run out of time, it’s impossible. Often rewards no partial points. He is a mathematician first - were he an educator trained in test writing, our grades would reflect what we learned.
He is an awful teacher. Doesn't take control of his class and is very unclear. Homework is online but when he teaches, it makes no sense. DO NOT TAKE HIM! Exams are pretty easy though.
A really good professor to consider with.He lets you bring an index card with formulas to help you with your test. I rarely use them because i like to challenge myself. Class wasn't hard at all, but i think i'd be the wrong person to ask to.
He's a really good teacher. I don't understand why people say he doesn't make any sense. He DOES make sense. I'm sure these people who said it were the ones who're either just sleeping or texting or not paying attention in his class. Trust me. If you listen and practice, you will pass with a good grade. Be patient.
Good teacher! If you pay attention to his lectures and do the homework, you will be fine!
I love math and have been a straight A student. Mr. Wan was the most difficult teacher I have ever had. He would not explain homework thoroughly and his tests had problems on them that were not covered in class. I did all my homework, studied hard, and barely got a B in his class. I should have dropped this class while I had a chance.
He is a great teacher! Take his classes if you really want to learn.
WORST teacher ever!!! He doesn't explain anything well, has no control over the class, all the homework is online, oh yea and everyone in his class failed! He sucks at teaching! If you have t take him instead of getting a grade get a pass or fail.
Really Hard class. Do not take this class because you are sure to fail. You need to be there every day and if you miss a day you will be lost for the next lesson. He gives ALOT of homework, and on the day of the test, most of the stuff you "learned" isnt even in the test itself. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS, (UNLESS YOU WANT TO FAIL).
He's an okay teacher with a heavy accent. Do not Recommend taking his class.
Can't understand him at all!! I'm good with math and got a 80 percent
He goes at his own pace. it is difficult for beginners to keep up with an expert. I mentioned it to him and it didn't seem to phase him.
Dr.Wan's very good instructor who knows how to teach math in his own way (explicit& easy to understand),4 exams,4quizzes,(quizzes are open book& notes),and u're allowed to bring a flash card that you could write some formulas, and he will round your grade (ex: 69%D=70%C), pay attention in class and do your hw you should be fine.
He needs to explain much better
He was a good teacher regardless... Always covered what we needed for quizzes and tests... A little bit tough on the grading though because he checks the work and they have to be the correct work! But overall, good teacher... From 1-10 I'd rate him as a 7! Make sure to do the hw tho
He is not good at explaining. He gives examples per section and he expects us to understand the whole chapter. Makes jokes comparing us to kinder-gardeners saying "its so easy they can solve the problem if you give them 4 different colors" and other jokes which were not appreciated.The online homework its way too long. I don't recommend him.
He is not flexible with his student. He writes quizzes on the board (its open book though,) but I found it inefficient, why not prepare a handouts??. He assumes that his students understand everything he explains (i feel bad for the beginners.) He does not give you any review materials prior to the Exam like other professor does.
Cant understand him with his accent. Isn't very good at explaining. Kept marking me absent for no reason. Class was unbearably boring.
His class is mostly difficult because he operates according to schedule and rarely deviates from the schedule to help you. He lectures, you do homework, he answers a few questions about the homework, then it's on to the next section, if you run out of time to answer questions on a difficult homework assignment, you're on your own.
Very tough to understand. His tests are only ten questions but he chooses the hardest problems. I do not reccomend taking his class unless you are all out of options...
Bad accent and hard to understand. He goes through lessons left and right like they're that easy to comprehend. He teaches 2, maybe 3 lessons a day. His tests are fairly easy, only about 10 questions, but its not worth taking the class. Save your time and money.
Teaches very fast in a low voice. Discourages questions,has short tests but the hardest questions. I'm a 4.0 student and I study, but he just makes it so confusing and hard to follow along and score well on his tests, quizzes were open note and timed.
Horrible teaching skills. His notes do not prepare you for the exam. Nothing he teaches can compare to how difficult his exams are. Be prepared to fail if you take his class.
Awful!!! Doesn't care if students understand the information. He is hard to follow and doesn't clearly show his work. Definitely avoid if possible. This professor came in and took over half way though the semester. I went from A's and B's to getting F's. I never missed a day of class and I did all the homework. Do not take him.
If you don't have a graphing calculator for his class then you're screwed, period. He skips steps when he's working out a problem, discourages questions, & his reviews for upcoming tests are terrible. I'm sure he means well, but don't take him unless every other Stats class is full and you desperate. But even then I would still be quite hesitant.
DON'T TAKE HIM. He took over my class mid semester went from B to F. will not slow down. will not help you with hw questions. the department chair had to email us to give him a chance. students dont like him or his methods. if you don't have a TI 83 or 84 graphing calculator you are screwed. I repeat DO NOT TAKE HIM.
He covers about 2 lessons every lecture and goes pretty fast. if you fall behind you might as well drop. he is unclear at times, and you have to learn alot on your own. Lots of homework, and the tests are tough. does allow a formula sheet. calculator is a must have. i do not recomnend taking this class unless you absolutely have to
HORRIBLE TEACHER, he's not very approachable and his tests do not reflect the homework. He puts the hardest questions from every section on the tests and its absolutely ridiculous. Would not recommend nor take again ever.
If you don't have the right graphing calculator you're screwed. This class is pure lecture, if you miss class its hard to catch up. The hw is online so you can do at your own time and is due before the exam. You get one project. He reopens hw at the end of semester to try and earn more credit. He gives study guides that are exactly like the exams.
The quizzes never matched up to the homework. He never had time to answer any questions regarding homework.
I got an A in the class. Everyone that's says it is so hard obviously didn't want to work for their grade. If you pay attention in lecture and do all the homework you will get an A.
Bad communicator, teaches too fast, doesn't care about you passing, worst experience I ever had. Would not recommend this teacher.
Great teacher , his test are easy and understandable, one of the best math teachers I've had , he goes right to the point and doesn't beat around the bush
he is that teacher that has such a thick accent that you might as well drop out the first week. Lectures are long and very hard to understand. he does not help at all when you come upon a question, I DO NOT RECOMMEND! the homework is online and there are 18 sections with 20 questions in each section the 18 sections are due every 2 weeks!!!
Hes not a very good teacher. he doesn't clarify anything and when you need him to help you figure out how to get an answer he just tells you the answer which benefits no one. also he has a heavy accent so its very hard to understand him at times.
I really dont know what evry1 is talking about. Prof Wan is a fantastic professor. Very clear, helpful and very kind. His accent isnt as bad as these lame students say. I highly recommend him for Calculus, his lessons are great. Gives examples related to HW in class. Exams arent too intimidating but grades tough. Just study up and youll do fine.
Professor Wan is a great instructor. He will make you work for your grade. There is a lot of homework but if you do the homework before class, you will have no problem. This professor is fair and will help you if you need it. We goes over every problem in class, which is the lecture. Don't buy the hardback book. You don't need it.
He teaches 100 mph ive deopped this class twice
I don't recommend taking this class unless you are out of option. He has a very heavy accent, and its sometime hard to understand him sometimes. He goes at his own pace teaches way too fast and expects you to understand everything. His test are pretty hard too, and expect lots of homework
not a good professor at all.. LBCC needs to replace this PROFESSOR.. DO NOT TAKE HIM ! he will confuse you and go way to fast over the work ,and SPEAKS VERY BAD ENGLISH.. DO NOT TAKE ! I had to drop him because there was no chance of passing even showing up everyday and doing the homework.. YOU HAVE TO PASS ALL THE TEST TO PASS HIS CLASS..
Professor Wan is great. Study for exams! Homework is done online, and the system allows you many opportunities to retake questions you answered incorrectly. The only way to not get a good grade for homework would be to not do it. He is very rigid about deadlines and due dates, so don't skip class. I would totally take a class with him again.
Great professor and a solid choice to pass this class.
Considering this is my first semester back in school, Mr. Wan is an ok professor. He will try to work with you ONLY if he notices that you are a hard worker. He wants you to pass.
Easy class. All you have to do is show up and do your hw even if you get bad test grades he'll work with you. His accent isn't that bad and he'll even crack a few jokes here and there. I would take him again.
This teacher finds the hardest questions for the quiz/exam. He grades all or nothing, doesn't credit your work even if you get the process right or you're halfway done. He doesn't curve. I got a high B, but could've gotten an A if he did. He should've because his exams are really hard and nobody ever gets a perfect score.
He seems quiet sometimes, but he is very caring. The homework is necessary if you want to pass. There are tests at the end of each section. Final is easy. He will answer every math problems before class. He is easy in grading, too.
He is a nice guy but you do easy problems in class and for HW and then get to the test and the questions are way harder than anything you'd done in class. I really felt I wasn't prepared for how hard the questions were. Even if you really understand the concepts, the math on the problems he tests on is so hard, knowing the concept is irrelivant.
BY FAR THE WORSE PROFESSOR LBCC HAS!!! He puts the ebook on the projector and reads the examples then has you do a practice example he does not guide you step by step he just does it and says " Okay this is the way you do it". If you have a difficult time in math do NOT take his class! Lbcc should definitely look into the way he teaches.
the tests are really hard! He chooses the most difficult problems that I don't even recognize it. When he teaches, it's easy but he doesn't put everything we learned on the test! I would study so much and the parts I remembered/understood best wasn't on the tests. Grading is really hard. If you don't pass the tests then you fail & there's around 5
A lot of homework. He is nice and understanding but straight forward and expects alot. He teaches at a really fast pace,covers multiple sections in a day but he does it quick and easy,kind of have to learn it on your own if you don't get it. His tests are very hard. ATTENDANCE IS MANDATORY. if u miss more than 2 Classes he will drop you immediately
WORST PROFESSOR AT LBCC! Would blatantly ignore students who walked up to his desk to ask questions... wouldn't even look at them! The "study guides" weren't even what was on the test. I asked for my grade and he sent me random scores. I like STATS but he made me hate it. I had 4 tutors and no one could help because his tests werent what we learned
Worst teacher I've had. Walks in, reads the book, hard to understand, boring, exams are difficult, homework is beyond stupid. I do not recommend.
He expects a lot from you. He'll build you up during lecture and break you down with every passing exam, throwing curveballs by testing your precal skills (especially polynomials/trig) every time. Reviewing it is crucial to get an A, as well as understanding calc concepts. Would not recommend him with weak precal foundation, or else study hard!
Very quiet, doesnt seem open to questions during lectures, miss 4 classes and youre dropped from the class, boring, class seems to drag on forever, grading scale is good, if youre good on attendance & understanding of math and hes a last resort class then go for it but if you got options then save him as your last resort (dont take mornings)
He goes to quick and he doesn't help you himself. He pushes you to just go to tutoring instead of him trying to help out. Class was full in the beginning of the semester and more than half left every week. One small error on tests and he marks you off for the whole thing (no partial points).
Youll definitely regret taking his class. Despite his knowledge, he is in no way a teacher. Every class consists of him going through each book example. If you ask a question, he simply does the whole problem for you. Lecture is incredibly boring and everyone, including himself, looks miserable. If you want to learn, do not take his class.
If you are reading this, Don't let anyone ruin your decision of taking this class. Professor Wan is very nice, he never put you on the spot. If u needed his help, u can always walk up to him and ask questions. He never embarrassed anyone, all he wanted was us to learn and pass the test. I will definitely take his class again. Thank you Professor!!!
Dr. Wan, covers alot in class and the gives you the study but the test is not always the same. If you miss class you will fall behind. He drops the worst test score if you better in the final. If you take him , do not take him in the morning.
If you are reading this check it out. Those people who thought he is rude and useless. Bruh, Imma tell you right now he is the best. Of course he expects a lot from you bc he wants you to pass. He cares tbh. I would never regret taking his class again. For some people who kinda not good at math. His class was full of tests. But youll be fine!
Hes a such a good professor, if you pay attention on class (dont expect to be on your phone and get an A or B) and do the homework, you will be fine. You do have to work for your grade, and try to not fall behind.
The worst math teacher ever. I had a hard time in that class since he talked throughout the whole 4 hour class. If you were to ask for help, he would solve the problem for you and not with you. I dont recommend this teacher if you have a hard time with math.
You'd think a professor would have some type of compassion during this COVID-19 pandemic; but no. Horrible experience with this professor. Even before the pandemic why would you write in the middle of the board in a huge classroom and not notice that everyone can't see your writing. Like, be better.
His class is pretty tough but the practice exams are pretty straight forward of how the test will be. You need to do the homework in order to pass. Overall he is not so bad but you do need to study.
WORST TEACHER EVER! Doesn't respond to emails. Lecture/book doesn't apply to homework or tests. Homework took at least 12 hours a day. Spent $500 a week on a tutor (Wyzant). Is rude when you have questions. Test are easy. I suggest making a study group and getting a tutor if you don't want to fail. Don't take him unless it's your last resort.
In my online class experience with Professor Wan, his class was extremely tough but he was decently fair. He lectured by screen share which made it easy to read and he usually explained things pretty well. However, the homework and tests used Pearson MyLab which is really picky and tedious. Be prepared for a ton of studying.
Online lectures can be a bit dry, but when you pay attention - he's actually pretty funny and CLEARLY EXPLAINS THE MATERIAL SO WATCH THE LECTURES. I received a good grade by rewatching lectures and going to tutoring. Not an easy A.
I don't even know how this guy is still a professor. If you are looking for a sign, this is it, ABSOLUTELY DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. Mandatory 2 days a week with 3.5 hour lectures of him doing math problems. The amount of homework for a 5-week course was ridiculous and I kid you not I would rather eat a pair of jeans with a fork than take this class
it's a calculus class. the material is expected to be difficult. he held lecture twice a week. if you take him online, prepare to use a math program that gives a ton of homework, he gave you a month to finish. he gave 4 exams and one final. i managed to get a C average in the exams and final because i put a lot of study hrs.
This class was very manageable with the proper commitment. Self-paced class with deadlines. Uses Knewton Alta for everything. There is 4 exams and a final exam. He replaces your lowest exam with your final exam if your score higher. I never actually watched the lectures. I learned everything through explanations on Knewton or YouTube videos.
Took Math47 during winter break, and it was definitely a difficult course. He reads from the textbook for 3 hours straight then does a few problems himself. Never pauses/asks the class if they have any questions. Exams were 50% of our grade. Does not offer extra credit or drop lowest score and prefers to send students to tutors, you teach yourself!
So I got an A in precalculous. The textbook was great, and the online homework was wonky but did generally teach you how to solve the problems. Some of the test questions I got wrong because it was unclear what the test was asking me to do. You will be teaching yourself pre-calc using the textbook and homework. The lectures can be put on mute.
Don't take him if you have a job, someone to take care of or basically a life because you have to put your whole life into the amount of homework he gives. He uses knewton for homework and when you get a question wrong, it pushes you back and adds like 10 more questions. I did good on the exams, but the amount of homework we were given was insane.
You can't miss a class. If you do you will be behind the next time you come and it's impossible to catch up again.
The professor never once checked our ALEKS program until the end of the semester and he found out that the assignments and exams were placed in the same grading category. Happy Thanksgiving at 8 am with a bombshell! He only helped afterward by increasing a 5% project into a 6% project. So helpful.
Professor Wan's STAT1 class is challenging but rewarding. Attendance is a must - the lectures are engaging and he explains concepts clearly. Utilize resources like unstuck ai and office hours to stay on top of the material. Not an easy A, but worth the effort.
This professor gives an inundating amount of homework through "knewton alta". and "adaptive learning" program that gives you two more problems each time you get one wrong. Each chapter can take hours. Lectures consist of monotonous droning and he does not stop for understanding. Questions asked are often very unclearly answered.
Math isn't my favorite, but after 20 years, I had to take a Stats class to finish my AA. Tons of homework, but staying ahead and aiming for 100% helped. Exams were tough but modeled after the platform, and the professor explained concepts well with written formulas and calculator tips. He was fair in grading during a Canvas issue. Passed with a B!
He's great at explaining how to do each problem and goes in depth. Yes, it's hard and a lot of work, but that's because it's a college Calculus class. He's a great professor. The problem is how long Knewton Alta might take you, but if you go watch the lecture and pay attention you shouldn't have too much of an issue.
This class is not easy, but if you put in the work and study, you will be strong in math. Only downside is that the homework is an insane amount. He is good at explaining how to do problems and drops your lowest exam. He gives partial credit on exams and records all of his lectures. Prof Wan, you humbled me, and I respect you so much. Thank you.
Almost every zoom meeting, he gets an answer wrong that isn't consistent with the homework and moves on saying his answer is right, making the students not learn the proper way to solve the homework. He NEVER replied to my emails, leading me to fail an assignment because it was due through email. find a different professor.
