Excellent professor. Knows the material inside and out. Will do whatever he can to ensure a student understands the material and passes the exams. Was available before and after class and responded quickly to e-mails. He was an encouraging and motivating instructor. Gives study guides for exams. Exams are exactly like study guides.

I loved this class. Sure, the teacher can seem a little arrogant, but if you can see past that, he's really just trying to make sure the students understand and think about the information. Firm teacher, and fun assistants made a good balance. I would recommend this teacher, unless you get easily offended, but that's your problem!
