He knows his stuff, but i believe he spends too much time proving things rather then teaching the students how to use the formulas and stuff.

Decent but very boring/corny instructor. He's very systematic almost robot-like. Speaks in a clear but monotonous manner so it's difficult not to trail off in class.

This is a very difficult course to take because it's harder to know these concepts than Calculus 1 & 2. But this teacher can easily answer your questions and clarifies explanations really well. His sample tests are pretty helpful, but it's also better to practice before taking the exam. He is a picky grader and does rush through the sections.

If you do not make the effort, you won't pass. The material can be challenging, but he makes it as clear as possible - make sure to ask questions if you don't understand what's going on. He's available for questions, and wishes nothing but to see his students succeed. Would recommend getting tutored in MSCLAC, if need be. Overall great professor.
