He is the sweetest moast help ful persion that has ever tought me.
THIS IS THE WORLD'S BEST MATH TEACHER. HE GIVES VERY GOOD EXAMPLES AND HE'S ALWAYS THERE WHEN YOU NEED EXTRA HELP. I PERSONALLY DON'T DO WELL IN MATH, BUT AFTER TAKING HIM, AND EARNING A GREAT GRADE, I HAVE A DIFFERENT MIND SET NOW.
i had him about 4 years ago. i had so much fun in statistics with him.
Cool guy. Has lots of interesting stories to tell. Helps you out as much as possible.
i am so glad i have him again. it is the only class i look forward to going and i hated math until i came to his class. he is an inspiration.
His exams are so challenging but he also prepares you well.
PROBABLY THE BEST MATH TEACHER I HAVE HAD SO FAR. VERY LAID BACK AND FUN. A FUN CLASS TO HAVE. ALSO A GOOD MORNING CLASS. I WOULD RECOMMEND TO ANYONE.
Great teacher, willing to work with you in any situation! Cool guy!
very helpful. wants you to understand and suceed
He is a really good teacher. He is always there when you need help. He is real funny and he tries to make his classes as fun as possible:)
He is the best!
I really liked him. This semester he is traveling the world. I wish he was teaching Math 5 this semster. I would take every math class with him.
Best teacher I've ever had. I had him for 2 classes. His notes are easy to follow and understand. Great teach and and wonderful person!
Sanjay is an outstanding teacher. He cares very much about his students and shows that through his willingness to help out in an situation. Makes math interesting enough to attend class!
Sanjay is one of the most awesome teachers on the face of the earth. He is a regae D.J. on 90.1 and is awesome at that also!!!
Incredible person! Excellent DJ! Not only cares about students but cares about people in general. He's funny, helpful and so cute! One of those people that enhances your life just by knowing him.
I had Sanjay Spring 04. I DID NOT like the way he taught at all. I felt that he was unclear and would become clearly frustrated with certain perple when they would ask a question. He plays FAVORTES. If you want an A, you'll have to kissup
wow, I am so happy he is my professsor this semester. How could I get so lucky? And most of my friends tell me that my college experience having him as a professor is going to be unforgettable.
He is simply the best. I would like to emulate him when I have my own classroom.
Can I just say AMAZING! AMAZING! and more AMAZING! I wish he could show the other professors how to teach.
The rating don't lie. I wish all teachers new how to teach like Sanjay. He is the best. Very humorous, kind and helpful! You will jump out of your bed just to get to his class because its fun
He is so cool. He is the best math teacher I've had.
It has been such a nice semester with him as our professor. He is such an inspiration.
Sanjay taught the material clearly. He was so helpful to everyone. He made himself available to anyone for that extra help. Sometimes I thought he "babied" the class too much. If you want to understand Math, take Sanjay's class. I haven't talked to anyone who didn't like him.

wow..simply amazing!
I had him 5 years ago. Today I use him as an inspiration when I am teaching.
ICREDIBLE. Folks, I absolutly hate math-but this man has brought out an actually enjoyment for math. Intellegent, but simple. Knows his****- and knows the real fundamentals of teaching. All the other professors should take notes on him.
Wonderful teacher. Dind't think I was going to Ace the class but I did. He breaks everything down into simplest way. He can teach one problem from different points of view so everyone can understand. Down to earth teacher.
Sanjay was an excellent teacher. He truly earned the Teacher of the Year award in 2005
sanjay is a fabulous teacher.
awesome!!!
Mr Dev is tight. Best math teacher i have ever had. This one can actually explain it so it makes sense and he shows you all the shortcuts.
Iam a returning student, about 20 years older. If I had sanjay as a math teacher before, I would be a math ace. Best teacher I have ever had, he can teach you how to do problems, not just show you how to do them. Best teacher I have ever had. Should be 2005 teacher of the year.
The best math teacher ever. The only teacher I've had that explains the problems so you understand them.
Sanjay Dev is the best math teacher I ever had! If you have to take math, you HAVE to take it from Sanjay Dev. Period. He changed my life.
He is super smart, super nice, super helpful,super sexy, and did I forget to say the BEST teacher EVER!
San Jay is a great person and a great man. he is clear on what he wants and he will do anything to make sure you accomplish his class. I had him in the spring of 06 and he is taking the fall off. his teaching method is great.class is a breaze you get credit for doing your hw right or not GREAT TEACHER!!! cant wait 4 him 2 comeback for math 124
Sanjay is awesome! He was able to do what few people in this world can.. make math fun! If you have the chance.. you have to take his class.. you will not regret it! Oh and you gotta listen to his reggae radio show on 90.1
Sanjay is awsome!!!!
Sanjay makes math extremely easy to understand. He is the best teacher that I have ever had. I enjoyed he class every day. He is a fun teacher that truly cares about his students. I loved him. He's a great D.J. too on 90.1 fridays at 3:00 pm.
Simply the best ever! I don't know what it is about him. He's just a natural with a very magnetic personality. He should teach other teachers how to teach.
Absolutely the best professor. really cares about his students. Now I want to go all over the world and teach children and make a difference. He was an inspiration.
Professor Dev is answer to my prayers. If there were professors like him all over math would be so much fun.
OH MAN THIS GUY IS A GREAT TEACHER! HE's funny too. I have never ever ever had a math class that was actually fun to go to, and I learned so much! Thanks Sanjay!
Sanjay was a great teacher. He is funny, and down to earth. I learned a lot of a subject that I usually don't like. Sanjay actually made math fun!
Sanjay was very approachable and never made you feel stupid for asking questions, no matter how basic they were. He is wonderful at explaining concepts and will work with you until you completely understand everything. he is very fair and conscientious of his students and truly wants every person in his class to succeed.
Sanjay is by far the best math teacher ever, he is also funny and down to earth. Love u sanjay, keep up the great work u do!
Great Teacher!!!! I wish I have math teachers like this in High School. I am trying to teach my kids the tricks he has shown us. Great work Sanjay!!!!!
My favorite Math teacher ever!!!
IF YOU DONT LIKE SONJAY YOU ARE STARIGHT UP RETARDED!!!! he is sooooo cool.. so funny.. so helpful and so understanding... he loves everybody!!!
Best Algebra teacher in the world. He is funny, crazy and will explain something 20 different ways until you understand. He loves to talk about Regae music.
You'll laugh more than you'll learn in this class. Sanjay has more energy than the energizer bunny. "X-goats to the third power plus Y-sheep to the second power equals what, class?" He's too funny for prime time.
his passion for teaching is so contagious. Every professor should take his class to learn how to teach.
I have hated math forever until Sanjay showed me the beauty in mathematics. I love him and he is also very nice to the eyes.
Oh man. He is absolutely the best. I love his radio show also.
I really love professor Dev. He really cares about all of us and wants us to do well. He is the best professor at Butte college.
I love math now. What a difference one teacher can make!
He is the bestest greatest simplest coolest teacher i've ever had. I'll never forget him for helping me understand math in the simplest terms. I enjoyed his class and I wish he would teach higher math classes. I would truly miss him. Take his class, and you would not need to take the course over. amen, hallelujah.
the best professor I have had in my entire career. I am going to miss you so much.
Sanjay is the man, always clear on explaining and leaves no questions unanswered. Kind of alot of HW tho.. : /
Sanjay is a wonderful teacher. He knows his subject in and out and is just a great guy.
The best math teacher that I have ever had. I have never been any good at math but he made is easy and fun. He does not always do things the way the book does them he makes it much easier.
Sanjay is totally AWESOME!!! I absolutely hate algebra; however, he makes it so interesting and fun. He does assign quite a bit of homework but does go over everyone's questions prior to turning it in. Covers material thoroughly. He also shows shortcuts to solving the equations that makes it so much easier. Would take another class with him.
SanJay is great! He knows his stuff and loves math. He makes it fun and memorable with crazy math stories. Very helpful and accessible if you need help.
Sanjay is an awesome teacher! he saved me from failing my math class and i am so glad i switched professor. He made it so easy for us to understand the problem and equation. I look forward in attending his class every week but now its over im going to miss it. His the best math teacher i've had - TRUST ME TAKE HIS CLASS - INTERMEDIATE ALGEBRA.
He should teach my other teachers how to teach.
I learned so much and the packet given was very helpful. I will use it in my teaching days.
I wish he would teach all my classes. I miss him. The most energetic professor I've ever had. I want to be a teacher who gives to the world like he does.
He's an amazing teacher I can't wait to take Math 5 with him.
I was nervous about becoming a teacher but now that I have taken class with professor Dev, I am not nervous anymore. He inspired me and I can't wait to be a teacher.
Sanjay is great. He is extremely intelligent and always looking for a new way to explain things. He sparked my interest in math again, and he is totally hilarious. Do the homework and grades will be fine.
thank you for being an inspiration to me. Now I am in Cambodia teaching in a english school. Other teachers should take his class.
It was the best class in my entire college experience.
BEST TEACHER EVER!!! HANDS DOWN so very helpful he wants to see everyone succeed and gives you many chances though many take advantage of that. I recommend him to everyone:) a very fair teacher. Very helpful. can even explain things in many different ways. I hated math before this class and he made it bearable even maybe likeable! Awesome teacher!
I'm taking his class right now and he's awesome! Does a very good job explaining the math. He's funny, laid back, and easy to get along with. :)
My favorite teacher! He is very helpful and wants you to succeed. He is very fun and energetic and makes math fun and easy even if you are not a math person.
Best professor by far.
Sanjay is an amazing person and teacher!! He really wants his students to succeed! He is a lot of fun and will help you if you need it!
I am so happy to be in his class right now. Only the first week has gone by and I can already say that he is the best professor of my entire college life.
I had him for Math 4 last semester and now taking Math 5 with him. I actually look forward to coming to class even though it is in the early morning. He is a role model for teachers.
He cares about all of us. Best professor I have ever had.
I took math 4 with him last semester and taking math 5 now. I have never had a teacher who truly cares for my success than Professor Dev.
This is the 3rd time I am taking this class. I have already learned more with professor Dev than my two previous professors.
Sanjay makes learning so easy. I wish he could teach all my classes.
I like him a lot but please make the tests a little easier. I have learned more in one semester from him than all the previous 3 math courses combined.
MATH124:Sanjay uses WebAssign for online h/w. It's very frustrating to use, and gives problems we don't cover in class or that are much more difficult than what we covered in class. Sanjay is an above average math prof. but his class is really frustrating because of WebAssign. The textbook is useless, and he doesn't use it anyways. Can't recommend.
well it's true, Sanjay is a great teacher! He doesn't have to act like he cares, because he actually does. WebAssign was a little difficult to use, just read the directions. Also, don't buy the textbook unless you have to in order to get the WebAssign code.
best math teacher at butte! I learned more from him than any other math teacher I have ever had. his tests are tough, but he makes it easy to prepare for them and tells you exactly what will be on the test do the homework and try, and you will do well.
Awesome instructor!!! Very helpful and willing to work with you so you understand! The best math teacher I have ever had!!!
I actually looked forward to going to class even if it started at 7:30 am. He is by far the best teacher at Butte period.
Webassign was problematic but because of his dedication and brilliance he made things easier for us. He showed us so many cool tricks. He should really write a book. Best teacher I ever had and I think the whole class felt the same way.
The class was real difficult but he was very good at preparing us. I wish I had teachers like him in my early years. When I have my classroom someday, I want to be like Sanjay.
Sanjay is hilarious. I love the metaphor he uses and he's very helpful. He definitely pays attention to every single one of us and can see when we need help even when we don't ask for it. He grades at a curve so that we can get the best of the class. He provides study guides and solution for study. He's awesome. I recommend him to everyone!
Wow. Can I actually say that I will be thinking about this teacher for the rest of my life.He has been an inspiration and I don't mean that lightly. I will have my own classroom someday. I want to be like Sanjay.
I took Sanjay for Math 4 and Math 5 and he is by far the best math teacher I have ever had. I would (and have) recommend him to anyone. He explains things in an easy way and shows you tricks to make things even easier! He is the nicest guy and funny too. TAKE HIM if you can!
I love going to his class. He is a great role model for us future teachers.
Sanjay should be cloned and teach all classes in every school. He is an incredible teach and person. He can change your life. I can not say enough good things about him. The most charismatic man I have ever met. And if you leave his class not understanding something it is because you were afraid to speak up.
Sanjay is the best math teacher I have ever had. Taking his class made math seem so easy. There is a lot of homework and attendance is mandatory, but that should be expected for a math class. Just show up, pay attention, and do the homework. He will gladly help if you are struggling. All you have to do is ask. Highly recommended!!!
Sanjay cares about our success. He is by far the most wonderful teacher I have ever had at butte College. In fact, all my friends studying to be teachers say exactly the same. I wish he could teach all my classes.
Although the class was challenging for me, professor Dev made my semester very memorable. He always made me feel so welcome and relaxed, that the learning experience was the very best in my entire career. He is truly a gifted professor.
I had Sanjay for Math 4 and 5. Ranks as one of my best teachers throughout school. Very very easy to understand and I am NOT a math person. He actually made math interesting and fun. He also helped me when my dog died - such a nice guy with a kind heart. He also played some sweet jams on the radio show he DJ'd
Why did I not have teacher like Sanjay in the past? Words cannot describe what a wonderful teacher he is. I know that I will be always looking up to him. He has inspired me into becoming a better person and I can't wait to have my own classroom. I hope to be half as wonderful of a teacher as he is. Every student should take his class.
Sanjay is amazing! Math has always been a struggle for me but he made it so much easier to understand. His lectures are engaging and I always walked out of his class knowing how to do the homework. He is also very sweet and so funny. By far one of my absolute favorite professors I have ever had. Take his class if you get the chance!
Great teacher! I took his Summer course this year and it was the best math class experience. this year I have a crappy math teacher that makes me appreciate having a teacher Sanji
The best teacher I have ever had thus far in college. Wow this guy is great by far the most compassionate helpful teacher I have ever met. He was so willing to take the time and help go over work that I was behind on and make sure I got it in the end. I would highly recommend him as a great teacher for anyone who wants to learn from the best.
Great teacher!
AMAZING teacher! I loved math before I got into college, but he made me love it even more! He is an excellent teacher and very well at demonstrating and explaining. He makes sure that his students understand what the homework is about. Also, if you have family emergencies and need to miss a class, he understands COMPLETELY!
Best teacher I have had at this college so far!!
Even though the class was difficult, he was the very best in explaining the material. I received a B after failing this class with another teacher. Now I am getting an A in my Calculus. It is only because of Sanjay's enthusiasm and love for math which has influenced me. He is the best professor I have had in my entire career.
The best math teacher I have ever had. He is so interested in math that he makes it fun for all. I have hated math all my life, and did not have a hard time here. If there was something I didn't understand, I would ask, and he would always make time to go over it until I understood. I recommend him to everyone.
Amazing professor, made math very interesting for me. He's hilarious while still being able to keep the class on track. Always willing to listen and help.
Professor Dev will inspire you. I wish there were more teachers like him in this world. Everyone I know is amazed by his teaching style and knowledge. I wish he was teaching all my calculus courses.
By far the best teacher ever!! He's funny. He entertaining. And he thinks about his students. He finds the easiest possible way to help his students solve problems and he understands if you can't go to class because of something important. I enjoy going to class every time and it was 7:40 in the morning! Totally recommend him!
Sanjay is hands down the best professor ever. I highly recommend him for any of his math classes. Especially if you struggle in math. I absolutely hated math because I never had a teacher explain it to me as well as Sanjay. I am taking a different math class with a different teacher this semester, and boy do I miss Sanjay! He is wonderful!
I am glad to be following his footsteps.
350 characters isn't enough to describe how wonderful Sanjay is. You haven't had the best math teacher here, 'til you've had Sanjay. I took the same class with 2 other teachers, and failed. With Sanjay, I got a B. He'll explain something over and over, 'til you understand it, and he makes the class so fun! If you struggle with math, take Sanjay.
Seriously. The. Best. Take him even if you have already fulfilled your math requirements. Cares a lot about his students, passionate about the material and made Math the most fun class I had all year. Would I take him again? I did.
He's a great teacher! patient, kind, and super helpful. If you have ever struggled with math I would highly recommend him. I would say he's one of the best teachers I've had so far.
He's one of my favorite professors. He makes math fairly easy and fun, and is always there for you when you need help. Loved him!
Astounding teacher. Cares greatly for your progress and wants you to understand the material.
Such an inspirational instructor that makes thing very easy to understand. Make one think outside the box. Would recommend anyone to take his class.
I had him as my professor for both math 4 and 5. I'm wanting to be an elementary school teacher and he's inspired even more to be one! One week when I was sick, he let me make up the test and quiz. Very understanding class and wants his students all to pass. He even provided us with a textbook he did himself. I very much recommend him to anyone!!
hes really good
I'm not good at math. This teacher takes time to get to know you, and help push through weaknesses in math. Because of this teacher, I have received the highest grade I ever had in math.
Sanjay is hands down one of the best professors I have ever had! He really wants his student to succeed. Although id never want to take Stats again, I would love to have Sanjay as a professor again!
Sanjay is by far one of the best professors. He's very understanding and is wonderful when it comes to keeping his students engaged. He makes learning math fun. I highly recommend taking his class.
Sanjay is genuinely a very awesome person and teacher. He's extremely helpful if you don't understand something and is very straight forward about what is going to be on the test. So far, he's been the best teacher that I've had at Butte College.
Sanjay makes me want to be a math teacher! The stories he shares about his kids are so cute! Sanjay is the kind of teacher I want to be! Material is presented in such a clear understandable way! He truly does want his students to succeed! I ran into him at Costco and he greeted me by name! Such a sweet guy!
One of the best professor i've had for my first year at Butte College. Very understanding and would extend the homework if everybody is falling behind.
Sanjay is the best math teacher I have ever had! He cares about his students and makes sure they understand each and every lesson. He is more than willing to go out of his way to make sure you pass his class. By far, he is the kindest person you'll ever meet. Show up every day and do your homework! He will notice and make your life easier!
Definitely the BEST Math professor. Sanjay is extremely caring, funny, and straight forward. I took Math124/18 so it was somewhat fast-paced, but he made sure we all stayed on track. Would extend deadlines to help us. I hate math but he made it very easy to understand, even Statistics! plus, he always told us exactly what to expect on tests.
Sanjay is hilarious and care for his students. He wants to save us money as much as possible. Not really an easy class but he does try to make it fun. Sometimes he get off topic but I always love his stories. Hes a great guy and I hope you take his class!
It was one of the hardest class I took. First it was intermediate algebra and then statistics. I got a C in math 124 but managed to get a B in statistics. He is the most inspirational teacher I have ever had in all my life and he was not easy. He just made me want to do well just to see how proud he would become.
Think of the best instructors you've ever had, combine their positive qualities, and you have Sanjay. He's clear, helpful, intelligent, funny, kind, and inspirational. I passed easily because I actually attended every class (ok I missed ONE and regretted it), paid attention, and asked questions. Never been into math, but I already miss this class.
Sanjay is the most caring professor I had at Butte. Math is not my strength but having Sanjay was a life savor. He cares about the success of his students and is so willing to help you when you need it. I wish more professor cared like him. He helps with homework everyday and gives review days before exams. Choose Sanjay and you wont regret it!!
Sanjay is hands down the best teacher I've had for math in my entire career as a student! He makes learning and understanding the material so easy, and always makes sure everyone understands what he is teaching before he moves on to the next lesson. For someone who hasn't ever been very great with math, this class has been a delight to go to!
He cares about the students. You literally can't fail. Frustratingly unorganized but the low pressure makes up for it.
Sanjay is by far the best math teacher I have ever had. I hadn't taken a math class in over 12 years and was scared for stats but he makes it completely understandable and is very easy to talk to. I sort of wish I needed another math just to take him again.
I took Sanjay for Math 4 & Math 5 and he was amazing in both. If you can take him you won't regret it. Not only is he kind and understanding but he will work with you as much as he can.
I know that everyone is going through new processes through this pandemic time, but this professor was not hands on about this course at all.I connected with all my other professors online, except him. This class felt distant&cold, I didn't learn anything from HIM at all, just from the website he makes us use for hw. Hopefully he's better in person
Math4, 5, 18! This is the third semester I have taken a math class with Sanjay. Everything was online and through math lab because of COVID. He is an excellent teacher and posts videos of the hw explaining things. Very willing to help and work with students! I had a great experience taking classes with Sanjay. Highly recommend! Watch his videos.
One of the most willing to help professors I have met in a long time. Math generally causes adult tears for me, however, in this class, I seem to understand enough to pass. I am fine with not having a perfect grade. He is the first math professor I have ever had to go to so many different lengths to help students believe in themselves.
I took Math 4 with this professor completely online. The hardest part of this class would be that it was through Pearson so I did not see any of my assignments on my To-Do list. Instead I had to click on Pearson to see. But he was always willing to help and give extensions on homework/tests when needed. Would definitely take again!
Prof. Dev would assign so much homework, with minimal explanation or announcements. The exams would sometimes have new content that we didn't learn and assign tons of videos that had nothing to do with the HW. Everything was done on Pearson, so whatever overall grade you got on HW's, Quizzes, and Exams would be final. Good luck. Try your best.
Fingers crossed I get into online Math 18 with Dev Fall 2022! I'm not good at math. With this prof I passed online math.The assignments are well taught with matching follow along vids made by Sanjay. Exams are identical to assignments making them easier than expected. So forgiving due dates, tests and assignments. Beautifully encouraging!
Took his class two semesters in row, Math 4 and 5. It was super easy, after every homework assignment there is a quiz on it. Assignments were mostly always due on sundays. He gave me extensions when needed and was super understanding.
I failed stats before with mark wilpolt and was recommended to take Sanjay's class. In the lecture he walks you though each question. 1 homework and 1 quiz per week on Pearson MyLab (also has all assignments and dates on it). He's caring and willing to work with you. You have to put in some effort, but it's easy compared to others. Recommend him.
If you communicate with him, he will allow you to retake quizzes and exams you did poorly on in order to revise. He is very caring and wants you to do well.
Sanjay is an excellent math professor who really cares about his students' success. His online videos and extra help sessions made the material much more manageable. Definitely recommend using unstuck ai along with the resources he provides.
