Expects certain level of competency in students, great notes, serious about math

he's cute, hangs at mcnally, seen him browse the L.C.

Very willing to help students. Excellent prof.

Shasho rocks!!! He's hilarious and I think he's a really good prof

Was especially helpful and honest during prof strike.

Sasho's teaching is quick and to the point. Excellent.

Very willing to help students with material, lab tests are a breeze! Funny guy!

Clear/thorough explanations...not to mention really cute!!!

An alright prof. Shows concern for students.

made algebra fun!

Great guy!!! Really cares about his students!

Answers all of your questions patiently. 5 on the helpfulness. Explains difficult concepts in a very easy to understand way. If you're thinking about choosing another prof, give your head a shake.

This guy can be tough to understand. Try and get a seat further up. He'll patiently explain anything that you need help with though. Quizes are pretty good and exams are fair. The course is easy at the start,but the last couple chapters are tough.

excellent prof. teaches what u need to learn. easy to understand. sit up close, hes kinda quiet. very fair exams.

This guy does talk quiet so sit up front. He is very clear he will make everything seem easy. Biggest tip I can give though is make sure you review the stuff for the exams. EVERYTHING will be covered on them.

his notes explain everything step-by-step... very helpful.

This is the BEST teacher i have ever had. He's a genius at the material and knows how to teach. He's so smart he's world ranked in chess. Anyway, if your taking 136.130 take Sasho!!!

GREAT PROF. NOT EASY, NOT EXCEPTIONALLY HARD, JUST VERY GOOD. FAIR, HELPFUL. GOOD GUY.

This guy seems to have everything on his head. He is teaching without refer to anything. Materials are well explain in step-by-step workings.

Great prof, fair and easy tests also his marking is really fair as well. This is a prof that knows how to teach math, not like some of the rest.

Great guy, only problem is that he wings alot of his lectures. He is the easiest marker you will ever encounter. Great guy and he loves his chess.

Great prof, BAD english! He's got a really thick accent and is fairly tough to understand, but if you can get thru the accent he's a great teacher! I highly recommend his Linear Algebra to any first year!

Great person. Passion+ when it comes to the relationship between math and art. Might seem a little intimidating at first but is always willing to listen and help. Fair marker. A little difficult to hear as he speaks softly. Overall a good person and proff. Knows his stuff. Always willing to listen.

good guy

had calculus 1 with him! sasho is the coolest! he's quite funny, although it takes a while to figure out what he's saying. didn't even crack the textbook, his notes are excellent, marks well, and always willing to answer questions. he obviously really likes math :)

I am horrible at math, and he made me interested in it again. The content of the course was incredibly fun (and surprisingly relevant), and despite a strong accent, he made himself very clear, and was easy to follow during class. If you are good at math he is probable refreshing, and if you're terrible at it like me, he is a great help.

Very thorough and clear teaching style. Does many examples to aid learning. Very good teacher for 136.272

Good guy

This guy explains everything clear and if you go to his class everyday, you will be good in maths, but he is lack of humour

Good prof kind of hard to understand at firts cause of accent but is is very clear, and teaches at a good pace. Also helpful outside of office hours.

He has excellent teaching ability and gives great notes. Not as good as Koritowski, but still very good. His accent is not an issue at all. The final exam he made for us was EASY.

Funny guy, easy to understand if you sit at the front. The notes are somewhat confusing, and I hope they don't screw me over for the final exam.

Sasho is unintentionally hilarious. I eventually had to drop the class but I must admit I missed his funny comments: "That is an ugly equation, so nobody look at it!" or "I tried to draw a pentagon, but it is ugly. I ruined it!" Sitting near the front helps with understanding him.

As far as math profs go, he's all I could hope for. He's suprisingly easy to understand (his name made me nervous at first), and keeps everything as simple as it should be. Also, I like how he admits that basic mathematics is actually quite boring.

Excellent prof. i had to drop this class last year because that prof was so terrible, but he really gives a clear explanation of how to do things, works at a good pace, and will give good examples. also before the midterm does a review of all the material. does speak a little softly so sit near the front. unintentionally funny :)

Great prof, knows his stuff and goes through the material well. Very dedicated, and answers questions very quickly through email and willing to adjust office hours to accomodate student's schedule. Love his vocabulary and is hilarious. Do the textbook questions, and you should do well. Never used Grant's and still got an A+.

The most recent comments below were obviously by those who were not interested in math. Sasho was truly interested in his students and is very prompt in returning emails. Although his accent can be a challenge if you sit near the front and make a real effort to understand, his examples are clear and truly helpful. Quizzes are easy, study for exam

i think this guy is awsome he goes though the material so slow so its nice and easy to follow. his examples are from the textbook but it just means that you dont have to read the material before the questions. i like him. even though he is really quite

I LOVE this prof! I will try to take classes from him again. He is really random, funny, and kept my interest. He's a little quiet so sit near the front. Extremely nice and cute in that old man kind of way. Haha. He helped my a lot and the explanations he gave were clear.

Good teacher, tests and exams were fair and pretty easy. He's not too exciting but he gets the job done.

Good guy. He has an accent but it's not hard to understand. You MUST attend his classes, however, if you want to follow the material. The material was difficult but his explanations were pretty clear and he's really funny too.

Really funny guy. Yes, he does have an accent but I didn't find it difficult to understand him at all. His writing is sometimes unclear but he usually says what he is writing so if you listen you can get it down just fine. Tests and quizzes were easy if you did your homework

He has a strong accent but once the class settles down it's easy to understand him. Writing can be messy you just need to listen to him. Overall, I find it very easy because he explains the topics well

Great Prof. very helpful and informative.

His accent isn't so hard to understand and he's really approachable if you need help. If you pay attention and keep up with him during class you'll have no problem. This course material is pretty basic once you listen in class.

He`s pretty good, quite frankly. However, I feel he may want to speak up in future classes because he talks in a low tone sometimes.

Do not buy the textbook. Although it is cheap, you will be better off using past midterms to study with. Missing class is a bad idea. You will get lost. I took this class last winter. He gave me a poppy-seed bagel during an in-class demonstration on Topology.

He is so helpful if you go and talk to him after class. Textbook was useful for me since I missed a few lectures. Whatever he teaches is in the textbook. As for the exams, you can just study for the previous years' exams which are posted online.

He is great prof. His lecture is clear, he gives lots of example but his voice is soft. You must attend the class to take note.

Great professor. I had to take a math course and this one is considered an easier math requirement at uofm. If you show interest in the material and you aim for an A grade in the math part of the course, I am sure you will do great. Sasho was always available to help during his office hours.

Has clear explanations but you need to look in the textbook for all the derivative and integral rules. he gives you some but not all in class. Practice questions help, some topics are confusing but he goes at a good pace and will help during office hours. get a good lab TA and the class will be easier.

Great prof, very interesting guy. I'm not a math major, but Sasho makes me want to take more math courses. His explanations are very clear, funny sense of humour - if you take good notes in class you'll do well.

He didn't finish teaching everything in the course outline. He's pretty funny and his tests are easy. Class is boring as he draws the same graph or a slight variation of it EVERY SINGLE CLASS. Otherwise, A+ prof.

If you have the textbook it is not necessary to attend lectures until right before tests to get information about them because he just uses the book and sometimes does proofs that are not in the book. The tests are very easy, but there are a lot of multiple choice questions so that might throw you off. Take this class with him for a guaranteed A+.

Sasho was an amazing prof, his lectures are sometimes boring, but he likes to throw in a couple jokes here and there. Thick accent, but not hard to understand, but try to sit near front cause he does talk quietly! Tells you exactly whats important. Super nice guy, and explains things pretty clearly. Really enjoyed his lectures most of the time.

Great prof with lots of energy who truly cares about teaching. Lectures explained everything with great clarity except for the proofs in the second half of the course which could be looked up in the booklet of old exams. He would talk for the entire class without pause but would take questions if you yelled for him to stop. Made up for by tutorials

I really enjoyed this guy as a math prof. Teaches and explains the topics very well. The only downside to him was that you can't tell the difference from when he says "M" or "N." The personality this guy has is super enjoyable too. Will make random jokes in class or give an inspirational speech at the beginning of a class. Would recommend 9/10

In my opinion, He is a good prof . He gave you what you need and focus on the exam , and give easy quiz to get marks. Although he is old and little strict man, he is humour prof. I asked him something as well, and received a clear explanation.

He has a very funny sense of humour and makes math more easier by providing clear explanations, tricks to use for questions, tells you what you actually need for the quizzes and exams, and shows how math is applicable to real life! you can really tell he has a passion for math.

I liked this professor before, he was funny, a bit quiet, but you just need to sit close to the front. The material is dense and he works through it steady but clearly. The main reason i am writing this is because, I mixed up the time for the mid term exam, and contacted Sasho to beg for a deferment, he allowed me to take the deferment. VERY KIND.

He's a good prof. He knows course material really well and makes it clear. He seems to care about his students. I enjoyed this class.

Sasho is a good professor that has a passion for math. Recommendations: sit at the front, he is quiet with heavy accent, but understandable if you pay attention, bad hand writing, so again, pay attention. Questions? Go to office hours, don't interrupt the class, he answers questions better in office. Study hard and use the past exams. He's great!

Lectures are clear and relevant and are the most important part when it comes to doing well in this course. He prepares you very well for tutorial quizzes, however the examinations are quite difficult. Speaks quietly and has writing that is difficult to read but sit near the front and you will be just fine plus you can catch his jokes too. 10/10

Really great prof. Sit in the front because he talks quietly and has a strong accent. Attendance is mandatory if you want to do well in his class. Just copy down everything he does and write the steps in different colors so you understand the order of the steps. The math looks confusing at first but is actually super easy!!! Easy A for sure!

At the beginning of the term you may be a little put off by his accent. You get used to it though and Sasho turns out to be a great prof!! He clearly knows his stuff and does a superb job of explaining concepts. Slowly he will reveal his adorable personality and self-depricating humour. His smile could cure cancer.

Great professor who is extremely knowledgeable in calculus. He has an accent and speaks quietly but you get used to it. He explains clearly and facilitates note-taking. He is also pretty funny. I would recommend his course.

Good prof. Clear when describing concepts, only tells you what you need to know. My only criticism would be that the lab quizzes do not prepare you for the much more difficult midterm. Final isnt as bad

Overall Sasho is a pretty good prof. He explains the concepts well, doesn't rush over them. Has a great personality and sense of humour, you will see as you go through the course. Very knowledgeable in calc. Approachable and willing to help, but wait until after class to ask your question, he will explain it much better after class/in his office.

He is patient to answer my questions.

Best prof I've had. I was anxious taking the class because it had been years since I last took math. Sasho was very accommodating, providing lots of practice and giving the class a short review to gauge how many students needed a thorough explanation & where to start. He was very helpful and truly cared about students' success. Clear explanations!
