HORRIBLE! Class appears very easy but I learned nothing. Gives you a grade in the class that does not represent your attendance, the work you put in, or what you thought your grade was going into the final. Total waste of a semester. Also he thinks state students are far less intelligent than the students at Berkeley where he used to teach..

The class requires no textbook. You have only his material to follow which doesn't make any sense. There's no papers, exams, or quizzes. Only a final that is difficult cause there's 60 questions to answer in two hours. He only speaks of his views which are out there. I would not recommend this teacher!!!

Kashi is too too kind and forgiving even towards towards noisy and talking ones. He should immediately drop the students with the noisy talkative attitude.
