He was a very enjoyable prof to have.In the hour that we had the lab, he helped to make a weeks worth of calculas notes easier to understand. Good sense of humour, very fair. On the final, he let us omit one question as well as him taking away the one with the lowest mark. great prof.
awesome lab instructor, clarifies anything and does it in simple terms that peopel can actually understand, highly recommended
He's a cool teacher. Really friendly, and helpful. The work itself I found hard, but that isn't necessarily his fault. It's simply the fact that it's calculus. I passed it though. So I really can't complain.
rushes through material but can be helpful
course is difficult. Engel is great though. very helpful, as long as you ask. he will spend extra time and actully cares that you really get it. He does his best to make class comedic. sometimes cheesy but good fun. FUNCTION!!!....C-unit.
Best teacher ever. Took same class with Solmonvic and had to drop it cause i thought i was dumb. Turns out you need Rob to speak in english and it makes a lot more sense. Spends lot's of extra time after class in help sessions making sure you know what your doing. Overall Great Great prof.
he was wonderful!!... i hate math and he managed to get me through it with an A plus!!! i have never had a better math teacher ever.... hopefully i can get him for calc.
Rob or as he should be known as roundhouse rob. Not only was attractive and a pleasure to have in front of that class but he was also one of the smartest professor with his understanding of the material and his ability to keep the class constantly on topic taught me alot not only as a student but someone who wants to get into teaching.
He is AWESOME!Really try to get into his class.best teacher ever.Really loves to help students
Okay, I never really had him as a teacher yet....but he did help me with homework in the Math Help Center. He was great at explaining confusing terms in a way that makes sense and was willing to sacrifice his time and effort into making sure his students understood the work. Rob SHOULD be payed MORE based on how helpful a teacher he is :D

Great teacher, really fun class, awsome sence of humor
An Amazing teacher. Never actually had him, but i sat though all his classes and passed the course with an A!! And i hate math!!
good prof overall. exam questions can be tricky. really cares about the students. if you go to class and go to the help center sometimes and you'll do well. great math-guy, he is probably the only person that i know of that is crazy about math.
Only had him for labs, but was a great teacher, obviously enjoys his job, and is awesome at it, if you can get him for ANY class do it! Or track him down for extra math help.
Had to upgrade my math for other courses, and I figured I would hate it, but he's a really good and very helpful prof. His jokes are hit and miss, but he's very friendly and approachable. Rides a nice bike too!
AWESOME PROF. Very clear in what he wants you to know. Encourages you to ask questions. ALWAYS willing to help you and make it convenient for you too. Approachable. You can totally tell he genuinely cares for his students and how they do. He TELLS you what's gonna be on your test so you don't have to study EVERYTHING. He is a VERY easy going marker
Amazing professor who dedicates a lot of time to students.
Best prof alive. Take his class if its the last thing you do
Amazing instructor! I've had him for three labs, and he made them WAY easier! He explains things in a very logical, easy-to-understand way, and he is willing to help if you have trouble with something. His quizzes can be really hard, but he gives lots of bonus marks to make up for it
Very passionate and really knows his stuff! Would recommend him without thinking about it to anyone taking math
Rob is a boss, no doubt about it! Without a doubt he is one of the best teachers you will get.
Rob is the best prof! If you get a chance to take a class with him, TAKE IT. He is extremely helpful and genuinely cares about his students learning. He is always willing to help you in any way that he can, in and out of class. Rob is a real stand-up guy!
Makes math easy to understand!
Ya he was an awesome prof, the boss,but YAAA he was awesome even if I got a c-, probably cause I missed alot details in the homework
Rob is a math wizard, with whiteboard marker of +3 to mathemagical- multiplication. Rob really cares if you learn what's going on and goes the extra mile to help your understanding. His lab quizzes were challenging but fair. 10/10 would travel mathematical realm with again anytime.
Best of the best, I wish he teaches other subjects too. He makes math sooooooo easy.Confident Instructor, I wish him all the best in his life. He aptly deserves to be called a Scientist. Thank you Dr. Robert
Rob is bybfat the best teacher I've had to date. He is an incredible teacher who makes life liveable if you dont understand math. Absolutely take him as your prof is you can, and if you cant seek his help anyways cause its never a waste.
Rob is an absolutely amazing prof. He is very approachable, and is willing to help you if you need it! Since I'm not very good at math, I always like teachers who are able to explain things step by step to me, and he does that! Would definitely recommend him as a prof. Also makes funny jokes, and is just an overall great person.
Extremely sweet guy. He really cares about helping students learn, and genuinely wants them to do well. Definitely take his course if precalculus is required and you're not good at math.
I took Math 99 with him. I had a morning class and therefore expected a dead lecture, but I was surprised with Robert's energy and will to make it a good time. He explains things very clearly. If you have a question he'll find a way for you to understand. Best prof ever, super down to earth, he'll honestly feel more like a friend than a prof
Rob is the best math prof ever! He makes math easy for anybody. He is always willing to help you during office hours or even after class. If you're going to take Math, rearrange your schedule just so you can take it with Rob! That's how awesome of a professor he is. Pay attention in lecture, do your assignments and you'll definitely get an A.
Rob's the real deal. I'm serious. If you ever see his name available for one of your classes you have. To. Take. His. Class. He's very clear, loves what he does, and goes to work everyday to help us succeed. He'll strongly hint what will be tested and doesn't go too fast in his lectures. Rob Engel is what all profs should aspire to be.
One of the best professor's I've ever had throughout all of university. May tend to speak and teach a bit quick at times, but is definitely willingly to slow down and help when asked. Best math prof ever.
Great professor, goes through lots of examples and gives lots of hints as to what will be on exams. He marks fairly slowly but that's mostly because he searches for part marks to give to students. He also raised anybody's 1st midterm mark if they did way better on the 2nd. He just replaces your 1st mark w the 2nd if you did 2x better!
Rob was such an amazing prof. I took him for Math 99 & i was so impressed. I am not a math person whatsoever, but he truly made me love the subject! He made everything super clear and easy to understand. Started right from the fundamentals and worked forward. Easy to talk toask questions and a really fair marker. Assignments were grade boosters.
Rob is a great math teacher, very enthusiastic about the material. Workload is pretty normal for a math class and he is always willing to help
Rob is one of the best instructors at MacEwan, hands down. He gives great notes with tons of examples, and will bend over backwards to make sure you are getting the concepts. His tests are a little tough, so he doesnt hand you an A, but he will help you get there! Amazing prof!
Honestly one of the best profs. He is such a sweetheart, he truly cares about you and wants to ensure that you can do the best you can! I would 100% take a class with him again, he bends backward to make sure you aren't confused. Totally missing out if you don't take him! Love love him, such a kind and beautiful soul he has. Bless him.
He's an amazing math prof. I thought my high school math teacher was the best but man I was wrong. If you have to take a math course, definitely try to enroll in his class. He explains everything in simple and clear ways. I have him for lab and everything he writes on the board just comes straight from his brain. P.S. His puns are great. Love him
Always willing to help everyone, even if you're not in his class. Super understanding and really cooperative. Explains everything in detail. I TEXTED him a few questions and he responded, so he genuinely cares about students and wants them to do well. Uses different colors when explaining, makes it easier to comprehend. Take his class/lab!
Excellent Teacher, very engaging and helps out as much as he can.
Amazing Prof, very helpful, he explains all his work in his examples and writes very neatly making his work very easy to understand.
The best math professor in MacEwan! Easy going, good sense of humor, available literally 24/7. He is genuinely interested in sharing his knowledge and helping students. His writing style is a bit fast but he stops a lot and uses different colors to highlight notes. Gives a lot of part marks for midterms.
The best prof I've ever had at macewan
Rob is seriously an excellent human being that absolutely loves what he does. He is incredibly busy helping students whenever they need it. Very approachable and hilarious. Lectures are clear and posted on blackboard. He does tutoring for anything you need, especially Calculus. I highly suggest Engel as a prof.
Best. Professor. Ever. That is all.
Rob is a G. Genuinely cares about students and is an unreal dude. Take his class
Best math teacher ever. He explains concepts step by step and tries to make sure that everyone understands before he moves on. Plus his math jokes are on point.
Took him for a spring course, so everything was extremely fast. If you didn't stay on top of your work, things got very confusing, but Robert always made sure to explain to us how to get help, made himself extremely easy to talk to and get into contact with, and would help in every way he possibly could! Definitely 100% recommend him.
Robert is such a great guy, he is hilarious, insurmountably energetic, and he makes math interesting and fun to learn. He uses real world examples and I think that is what makes it so much more interesting than usual. He really knows what he is doing, and he is compassionate to his students. Very fair marker, and very kind in his practice.
ONE OF THE BEST PROFESSOR AT MACEWAN!!!!!
If you take Math class make sure you choose Robert's section .His note and lecture are extremely clear and make sure every people understand before he move. If you go to his office hour he become extremely helpful. As long as you show up to his class he will let you to get A on his test.
Great dude! Super approachable and easy to talk to. Can tell he is really passionate about what he does. One of the only classes I don't fall asleep in especially at 8am. Really knowledgeable about math. (:
Super nice, very helpful just review his notes and you will ace the midterm and final exam!
Rob Engel reignited my love for math. He is seriously the best math prof you could ever have. IF you have the chance to take his class, DO NOT PASS UP THAT OPPORTUNITY. Rob is amazing and goes through every question with such detail and his practice final and midterms are super helpful and he's always available if you need help. I enjoyed this clas
I'm a political science major now taking math as a minor because Rob was such a good prof. You need to go to class, he goes fast and focuses on examples in class, but he's super approachable, his practice tests are super fair, and he genuinely wants you to do well. DO NOT SKIP CLASS, you won't have any idea what's going on.
Great Prof, always willing to help and he likes what he does. Actually take his advice and do work daily and don't be afraid to ask questions both in and outside of class!!
gives lots of part marks, he loves teaching, warning he does move extremely fast through lectures
Probably the best professor you can get for math. He loves teaching and is super approachable! He explains everything really clearly, and is always willing to help you. You're missing out if you don't have him as a professor.
Robert Engel is a gem. If you have to take a math class, look for his section. Hes the most easygoing, approaching professor you will probably ever have.
I LOVE HIM I MADE THIS ACCOUNT JUST TO SAY HES THE GREATEST TEACHER IVE EVER HAD. FOREVER IN MY HEART ROBERT ENGEL 3
How can there be a professor who is as passionate and caring than Rob Engel? Hes great at explaining things, and hes a hilarious guy. Seriously, if you need to take any math courses, try and get Rob Engel. You will not regret it.
Just come to class write down the notes :) those will be helpful for the assignments and then just do your practice exams and a free pass mark is handed to you.
AMAZING teacher. He does math on the board efficiently, he can write really fast and neat at the same time so that he is able to work through a lot of examples in a short period of time. Really helpful in the lab as he shows exam-like questions that may have not been covered in class. Overall, he is a mathematical genius, always willing to help.
Take his class if you can
Great Prof, take as many classes as you can with him.
He's awesome! Best math prof I had, ever! Explains everything very clearly and cares about your education. and he's fine
He's so specific and clear about his expectations for his students, he manages to make math lectures interesting which is a nice change of pace. Show up and you'll do well, he makes himself very available and is super willing to help you outside of class. Minimal effort is required to do well in this class if you have a basic understanding of math.
If I could take every single course of mine through this one professor I would. He's hands down the best teacher I've ever had. He's got energy, is funny, cares for his students, makes the effort to explain everything clearly and concisely and just is overall great. I'm currently in his Math 114 class as well and if you have the choice. PICK HIM.
Rob is an amazing professor, there's a reason his classes fill up so fast! he is so nice and helpful, and you can almost always find him in the math help centre to help explain a problem. This guy honestly doesn't have a bad bone in his body and you'll find that he's probably the nicest and most helpful math prof ever! So friendly!
He actually cares about us. Best Math prof at Macewan. Easy A cause he helps when ever you need it.
Best professor at MacEwan period. I've never seen him not happy, and hes always cracking jokes. He's also willing to help you no matter how stupid the question is. He pretty much tells you exactly what will be and won't be tested on, and always has a review class before an exam. TAKE HIM, YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!
Rob is the best!! Had him for math 99 as well. Math 114 in general is a difficult subject (in my opinion), but Rob made is manageable. His notes are great, clear and easy to understand. He is caring and always encourages you to come see him either in his office or the math learning centre if you need help. Best prof I've had at MacEwan.
Wow, what a guy. If you ever see his name in a class, just take it.
BEST PROF EVER! Rob is amazing and cares SO SO SO MUCH! Rob is real cool dude and loves to see his students succeed.
He's an amazing prof that truly cares about his students. If you ask questions in class he'll take time to make sure you understand before moving on. If you see him in office hours or in the math help room, he is so much help and might even give you hints for the assignments or exams because he knows you are trying outside of class.
He is the best Math teacher in Macewan. Nice guy. Super helpful. Wish he teach me every Math class
Rob is an absolute boss and a great math teacher. Always try and get in a class with him and you will not be disappointed. Haven't had a teacher like him since high school. Nothing bad to say. Dudes a legend.
Rob is the best prof I've had. He really cares about his students and kept the lectures as interesting as you can make linear algebra. he made it easy
I took math99 with Rob and he made it make sense & made it enjoyable considering it was math. I didn't take math120 with him but he helped me a lot in that class. He provided review session for all the math120 students for the midterms and the final which was extremely helpful. I have so much respect for this prof and he actually cares about you
Amazing prof. Who knew a math class could be so fun!? He's so inspirational and funny. He loves his job and is very passionate about math. Exams are easy as long as you do your assignments. There's not much to the course. He likes giving lots of partial marks. Easy marker. Is always available for help. Textbook's not required - everything's online.
Rob is the best math teacher I've ever had! There is lots of homework assignments due for math 120 but if you show up to every class you will have no problem getting 100% on all of them. Rob is always available outside of class and makes sure you always understand the content no matter how many times he has to explain it. Highly recommend him!
He was very good at explaining the topics that students were having issues on and had extreme patience for the shenanigans going on in our lab class. He has a way of making something complicated seem easy and understandable. One of the few classes were I could have a good laugh while learning.
Homework assignments were pretty long, and due every 2 weeks, but it's all very straightforward if you go to class. This course has a lot of content but Rob focuses on making sure concepts are understood through lots of examples before moving on. Was always clear what test would cover, and if you're naturally good at math you should do great.
Robert is amazing! Math 114 is not an easy class but he did his absolute best to ensure we did the best. His practice exams are so helpful and he always gives part marks. He made math bearable and his lectures were very helpful.
Probs one of the best math profs. Copy everything he writes on the board. Go over all the notes and practice exams and you set.
Robert is one of if not the most amazing profs at MacEwan, he genuinely cares for his students to do good and marks VERY fairly. If you need to take math or are looking for an easy class, take math with him. (made me love math and actually understand it)
By far the best prof Ive had. I struggle with math but Rob does eveything he can to help you understand the concepts. Definitely smart to go to the lecture since it is a hard class overall but he does a good job of explaining conepts in class. If I had to take another math class I would make sure it was with him. Class isnt super textbook heavy.
Amazing prof. If you can definitely take him you wont regret it. Explains everything thoroughly and very reasonable quizzes and tests ��
Let me just say he's the best math teacher you could EVER find. LITERALLY. If you're bad at math, he'll make it easier and you'll get a good grade. He explains everything in a simple way and repeats it as many times as you want until you understand. His quizzes are so easy and he gives a clear outline of his exams. I just LOVE him, he's so funny.
This man is my guy. Really seems to care about his students, and wants everyone to succeed. Always encourages you to ask questions, and is pretty straightforward with what to expect on exams and quizzes. Makes your first post-secondary math class seem a lot less daunting. Also, great lecture quality when we moved online during COVID-19.
He is a God amongst sinners.
Robert Engel was a really nice professor, he ensured that students understood what was going on in the class. He was a little hard to reach by email sometimes, and he responded pretty late to some of mine. But all of the negatives are based on the fact that the course was taught online. I'm sure that if classes were in person, he would be a 5/5!
Robert Engel is a genuinely nice guy. When he holds live lectures, his joy resonates with all those in attendance. But towards the end of the semester, I don't know what happened. He needs to hire new graders, because they aren't grading the students' work at all / fast enough. I've only received about half of all assessments back w/ finals coming.
Robert is one of the best if not the best math professor I've ever had. He made the online calculus course easier than any of my other professors and posted all the lecture material and notes you could ever need. He genuinely cares about his students and goes out of his way to tend to any concerns you may have. Would definitely recommend him!
Prof Engel was a good teacher for sure, with lots of practice examples & lots of notes. You need to keep up to do good. IDK where I stand in this class but my final exam is in 3 days and 0/5 quizzes have been marked and combined their worth 55% of my final grade. I have gotten 5/9 assignments back and graded ranging from 90%-40%. Very disappointed.
Things happen sometimes and probably ( I guess) prof Robert is overloaded this Win21 semester, so it takes awhile for him to reply emails and update the grades. But at the end of the sem, I understand why prof Robert delays posting the grades. He's really one-of-a-kind. His notes and videos are helpful as well as the practice quizzes/exams.
He is an AMAZING PROF!! Definitely recommend him. His notes are detailed and not only does he post notes during the online class but posts video lectures as well as does online seminars and you can book an appointment with him if you need extra help. HE IS ALWAYS HAPPY TO HELP. THE MOST UNDERSTANDING PROF I HAVE EVER KNOWN! Great guy
I saw another review saying he only marked 2 out of 9 assignments before the final. That isnt true. There were more than 2 assignments marked. He also sent out an email apologizing for the delay for the marking if the quizzes repeatedly. He is the most helpful and understanding prof I have ever had. He gave us many review materials for finals!
The best Math teacher i've ever had. His notes/videos are so good and everything you need to know is in there. If you do the work you'll do good. Won't be surprised by the questions in the quizzes or exam if you actually do the examples and assignments. Would literally take this class with him again for fun. Love him so much. Coolest guy ever
Before you enroll in 114, know that this class has a 50% FAIL RATE. If you MUST take it, run with Robert!!! He ensures all students understand the material and is available to help after hours. His lectures were in-depth, providing thorough explanations. Robert genuinely cares for his students and sets them up for success.
I don't have any classes with him this semester. I just miss his class so much, so I come back here to give him 5 stars. After studying with him, I set him as a standard and I just realize he's beyond any scales. Nobody can be compared to him. He's such a LEGEND.
Robert is a gem. you can't find a better prof than him. I love math anyways but he made me fall in love with math over and over again. I'd take his courses anytime . he is a genuine dude and actually cares to help students succeed. if you see his name for a course, take that ish asap! you won't regret it.
He is the best professor I've ever had, truly a legend. He'll brighten up the classroom with his jokes while going through lectures. He cares so much about each and every single student, there won't be any surprises on exams. If you ever come across his name, just take the course.
One of the best math teachers out there.
Was very important to him ,that each student was progressing well.Professor Engel had the ability to give such insight as one would reflect on a problem .
Rob is a great professor. The way he explains each question makes sense and you can always come up to him and ask for more help at any time as he always stays late after class. He's easy-going and happy to help. If you get a chance to take Professor Engel's class, do it.
Probably the best math teacher out there, however, seems to be taking too much to handle as he is teaching at 2 Grant Mac and UofA with back-to-back classes between universities which causes him to often be late or doesn't show up at all. If you can't learn without a lecture then don't take his class.
Rob was the most down-to-earth prof I've ever had. The guy loves what he teaches and is invested in making sure you succeed. He is always willing to move the dates of assignments and quizzes, and just compromise to ensure you can do your best. The man needs to be a template for all profs. Absolutely nothing negative to say about him.
Robert was amazing. He is super passionate about what he teaches and always willing to give you a hand. He always responds to emails and does his best to reexplain concepts in class that are confusing. Highly recommend.
Absolutely amazing, down-to-earth professor. He sympathizes with students, a quote I remember he said during the semester, "... I remember where I came from", to show that he truly wants the best for every student, and will do his absolute best to give you marks. 11/10
Gosh, I'm taking him right now, but he's really good. Nothing will come as a surprise, and it's a guaranteed A if you do your work.
although he marks the assignments late he is agreat proff and i would gladlybtake him again
This was the hardest class I have ever taken, and I dropped out of it. It was a hybrid class, and I would not recommend taking the hybrid version. The material was new and complicated, but he didn't explain it that badly. If you are gonna take this class, be prepared to do lots of practice and homework.
Best math prof, I don't think anyone can top him. Rly sweet, caring guy. Horrible at math but I'm doing great in math 120. His lectures help a lot and make sense. Gives exactly what you should know for each quiz. Will round your final grade if he thinks you deserve it, and truly just wants you to do great.
He is a great prof, but I would recommend you take him for an in-person class not a hybrid. Also, be aware that he takes forever to give the marks back. I did my final with only 3 quizzes given back out of 6. Overall great teaching and super caring prof!
Dr. Engel is an amazing professor who is very passionate about what he teaches. He does whatever is possible to ensure the best grades for his students. For this course, he had six quizzes (the lowest mark dropped, and the second-lowest mark was replaced with a cumulative quiz), which were written online and an in-person final exam.
Awesome dude, awesome teacher. If you're nervous about math then take this guy's class!
Very energetic man who genuinely enjoys teaching students about math
Is an excellent professor, was always excited for class, which helps to keep you engaged. Attendance is not mandatory but helpful as he is always eager to help and answer any questions. Assignments and exams are reasonable. The course itself is very difficult and requires work but Robert does everything he can to be there to help you through.
Very great prof that cares about his students.
Amazing prof and very generous he wants to make sure everyone succeeds and if you go to his lectures you will do just fine. He explains material really well and makes homework easy to do. Also loves to hand out a few extra marks if you show progress in his class
G.O.A.T Wouldn't take his lecture as a hybrid , cause I feel as though it's rushed. Hybrid classes means you don't really get to sink your feet the course. Otherwise he's great.
absolute math wiz
Best professor ever. Whatever Math course you're taking, TAKE HIS CLASS ASAP!! He's the absolute best in terms of everything.
Prof Engel is an enthusiastic, caring instructor who goes the extra mile to help students succeed. The material is challenging, but with his guidance and study tools like unstuck study, I was able to do well. Definitely take this class in-person if possible.
In studying for finals i have seen that in his answer key he did not fully show all work or fully answer the questions that were asked make practicing for the final harder other that that an ok teacher
I have always hated math, but he made me enjoy learning about math. He has many videos posted explaining the concepts of each chapter clearly. The course just included 6 assignments for each chapter, 3 midterms, and a final. Although I hoped he posted our midterm marks before our final, I didn't know what grade I was going into before the final.
Amazing prof. Great lectures. Made math fun. Heavy on the exams, but practice material given was on all the exams without fail, if you dedicate just a few hours to the practice material you will get a good mark. Would highly recommend Rob, you won't regret it
Robert knows his stuff. He is very very good at teaching math. I understood everything he threw at us because he taught and explained everything in a manner that somebody who's never seen a matrix or any linear algebra before could understand. Very nice guy as well, cares a lot about his students success.
MY KING - such a good prof, cares abt his students, very accommodating, and always helps as much as he can.
he's probably the most goated math professor out there. not only does he know how to teach math, but he also loves doing it, which makes it easier to engage with the lessons. if you struggle in math, HE IS THE GUY FOR YOU. he doesn't care how often you show up during his office hours or email him because he's genuinely there to help you.
Amazing prof! He makes sure that u get ever mark possible and is quick to respond to emails! however he did take long in marking tests but its all written tests for math so makes sense:))
Rob is a great guy and is genuinely enthusiastic about his courses. He's always willing to help out and is very accessible. The main downside is his marking speed. I haven't received my first midterm mark yet, and it has been well over a month now; he also has very long homework assignments. Get ready to practice daily!
whenever he would extend the assignment deadline i would thank god
Absolutely amazing professor. Enthusiastic about the content, and would always do things to make life easier. He makes sure you know everything you need to know for the tests so there are no surprises and was in a good mood every single class. the assignments where decently easy, super easy to talk to and always helpful when answering questions.
Couldn't be better in any way. Amazing and is perfect
Best prof ever.
SUCH a great math teacher, he's always available. I will say he takes forever to mark and his midterms were ROUGH his final was very easy. He knows his stuff and explains all types of math very well. Take his class if you hate math and need to take a class. Ive had Sunil, Adrian and him and by far he was and is my favourite.
The best professor I have ever had. Literally gives you almost exactly what to expect on every single midterm and final and genuinely wants to see his students succeed. His lectures are a bit fast paced but his teaching techniques and ability to explain the material make this one of the easiest courses to take. Notes and videos online. GOAT Prof
Probably the best teacher I've every had, was always in a good mood, enthusiastic about the material, awesome to talk to and really helpful when it came to the exams, telling you what questions to practice ect. Lots of resources available on meskanes. Overall great professor.
wow i loved him! i've never done so good in a math class. he pretty much tells you exactly what will be on all of your exams and he is super invested in each students success. i will try to take him for all other math courses i need!
Rob was a good prof to take for math 120, he gave good detailed lectures but his exams were a bit weird he wanted all the answers very very detailed and explained very well or he would take small amount of marks off. Otherwise he's great!
Awesome prof. Really passionate about what he's teaching. He basically laid out each question for our midterms which made it super easy to study. He would give part marks for every question. He would answer questions during class and explain entire questions which made it super easy to understand. One of the best profs I've had for math OAT.
Amazing prof. Just take his class, you won't regret it trust me.
He is a fantastic teacher. Math was always a bit hard for me to fully grasp, but the way he explains concepts is so good. I've never understood people who say they learn in class until he taught the topics. He is very nice and funny. He writes all the lecture stuff out so it's best if you come to lecture and use the materials he posts online
If you're fine with him being late every single class go ahead and take him. He will accuse you of cheating even if you have the highest mark in the class and can complete questions faster than him. You will need A LOT of patience for his class.
Math 200, Highly recommend for both math 120 and 200, had him this spring for math 200 and did great with him, gives LOTS of partial marks, always accessible!
I like his teaching style You will definitely learn from him Humorous- Makes learning more fun Considerate Very detailed- He knows when the topic or the problem was complicated and explains everything from the very basic to the solution.
Robert was a wonderful professor! He's very caring and tries his best to attend to everyone's needs, whether it takes up extra time of his day or not. He gives lots of bonus marks which was a huge help in the class.
He was awesome. Hands down with him as instructor. Amazingly, after so many years with him and few others. I don't think numbers don't define a persons character and well - being. Also he's probably on and off at the Math & Stat Help lab. I mean I can probably be proven wrong. However I don't know anyone that goes as long as these people.
GUYS! So much fun, his lectures are FAST. But he makes this challenging math class a lot easier. But you MUST go to class (due to heavy lecture), especially if your not great at math. But once it clicks, it clicks. For me, easy math is challenging, and i got my accommodations late and i suffered due to that. But LOTS of materials posted online.
This Professor is great! I took his class for MATH30-2 and I loved it! I never enjoyed math and I was never really good at it but once I took his class I felt way more confident in my math skills. His lectures are easy to understand and even… fun! On top of that his tests are simple, he even gives tons of resources and even gives the textbook
Awesome professor! If you can take him, I would definitely recommend it. Attendance is mandatory, but his lectures are very informative, and he makes them entertaining.
I took the hybrid class and found myself struggling a bit since we only had class in person once a week. I'd recommend the in-person classes instead. His tests are worth so much while the assignments are only 15% of our grade. He claims to be accessible out of class, but I find that only to be partially true. He also takes a whileee to mark exams.
this prof is great and the only reason I dropped was because I didn't realize there was an easier alternative that I could have taken. but he's very caring and makes sure that he is very fair to give students every advantage there is to help them pass.
Fantastic professor. Lectures were clear and he broke down problems in a simple and digestible way. If I could have him for all of my math classes, I would. Very accessible outside of class time. The only downside is that he is often late to class/the final exam.
Popular opinion may sway at anytime and no one is perfect. But Robert's teaching practice is close to perfect. Only a few in Alberta come close He goes in-depth in lectures, gives enough notes and supporting material, and is communicative as needed These topics are hard, most people good at it, want others to fail He is happy to see you succeed
I took a hybrid class, would not recommend it to students. Robert is a very good professor and very passionate about mathematics. His online videos are very helpful; however, Roberts not an accessible professor. I sent numerous emails asking questions and received one reply. He takes A LONG TIME to mark exams, and only uploads your final grade.
