Very good teacher, explains problems bery well. Offers extra credit assignments.

Fair, difficult teacher. Sometimes acts goofy and is occasionally tough to understand, but explains material well and grades more than fairly. I bombed a midterm and still was able to pull an A. Has extra credit that helps a bunch

I think Prof. Fiederowitz is very helpful

i was worried by these other comments, but the prof. was easy to understand and helpful when i visited during office hours or asked a question after. **take advantage of the extra credit, it's very generous!!!**

I absolutely loved how he taught!!! He gave tricky examples and "nonexamples." I was a big fan of his sweater choices too. He is an incredible teacher, and makes math seem soo much more simple than it is!

Was a tough class, but not because of Professor Fiedorowicz. He was pretty generous on letting you know what he expected you to know for the midterms. He gives excellent notes! Got an A in the class.

His quizzes make me want to gouge my eyes out. He wears the same orange sweater every day.

His method of teaching is very difficult. He writes on one overhead and you CANNOT see what he writes because he is in the way! Then he switches it to another overhead while he continues. If you ask a question chances are high he won't understand them.

His accent was a little difficult to understand, but he was there if you needed help. He was also as entertaining as you can get with math

Great professor overall. Always willing to help. If you're taking 152, try to get him.

Handwriting is messy, but he puts the notes online and is always willing to help

He was an OK teacher, but great with students. He gave tons of extra-credit and the quizes didnt even count if you did the webwork good. He even changes homework due dates because people have other exams in other classes.

The class was a breeze. Tons of extra-credit is offered and tests were only 5-6 questions that were exactly like the Webwork(Homework). If you do the work, you can easily get an A.

I beg to differ. Exams do refect midterms but not directly. Do all webwork problems to get 100 recitation points + 40 extra credit points and you should be fine. Also, an 85% is an A-... including curve

Makes countless mistakes in which the students point out so basically we are teaching the class ourselves. Posts lecture notes online which help in webwork so you can skip if you want and recitation goes over webwork. REVIEW WEBWORK FOR EXAMS. seriously. And the suggested probs couldn't hurt as well

not the best in lecture... and tests are hard but gives plenty of extra credit and makes the class very fair. It all evens out in the end.

He was a little hard to understand, but his notes were very clear! Tests weren't easy, but the exam was very fair! Go to all the classes, do the webwork, and see him if you still have some questions! You'll get a decent grade if you just do the work!

Everything is available online and easy to follow. Also provides extensions when needed for extra credit and webwork!

Tests were not very difficult... especially if you do the homework. Quizzes are not hard at all... especially if you go recitation. Basically, if you go to most classes and recitation and do most of the homework, an A is not hard to get at all. He also does a good job explaining the material.

Great teacher - really wanted to teach and make sure you got the information. Notes clear and at a nice pace for people to follow. Go to all of the classes and do the webwork and a good grade is guaranteed. Very helpul professor.

Great teaching style. I enjoyed his unique personality.

Goes at a nice pace, gives old midterms & final online, pushes back deadlines, very good professor!!!

Fiedo was one fo my favorite teachers freshman year, he kept things interesting and made me laugh daily. My friends and I could mess around the whole class and take notes when he went over midterm info and do well everytime. As long as you get his notes down (sometimes can be too long) it's not bad.

Gave clear examples and did most of the problems on the midterms in lecture. Plus he offered 40 points in extra credit which if you go to the help sessions, should be done easily. His midterms were exactly like the practice ones on the website. This was my first and last college math class...easy A.

Fiedorowicz is the lead Math 152 professor. The exams were graded more then fairly, I thought I did worse on each of them then what I ended with. If the professors pick their own TA's, he picks good TA's. Some of the other math teachers have a better note setup where you print off fill in the blans off their website. It's just like any math.

definitley one of the better math professors at osu. The exams are fair and their are not too many suprises. he is very willing to help and you can tell he really likes what he does. for the exams i would advise to study the webwork...if you can do those problems you can probally handle the exam.

The class was pretty much a review of my AP calculus class in high school. The material was pretty easy. Don't be scared by what you have heard. Do the extra credit, the webwork, and study before the quizes and exams and you'll be fine.

He's a nice guy when you get to know him.Tests are hard but he's the best 152 teacher.The grade averages are higher in his class than the others.Also,GO to his office hours,especially before midterms,ask him for previous exams.They HELP. Trust me,I got an A ;) Warning:He does have an accent,and some of the TA's aren't that great. Big curve on final

I loved him!!! there were only a couple lectures that were boring but the other lectures were lovely. he made strange comments reflecting how much he truly loves to teach math. definitely go to office hours during the week and before exams...he'll go step by step through difficult problems. if you want an A, take him, plus he's just a fun guy:)

A bit hard to understand, but he really stands out in his passion, which is topped only by how much he cares about his students. Dr. Fiedorowicz will never give up in helping an individual student, and as long as you continue working/trying he will make sure you succeed. Exams are very hard, but if you attend lectures and meet with him over any con

He is a very nice teacher. The material is very hard, but he helps a lot. You can always argue for points back on your midterm if you feel you've been cheated. He's also very fun to listen to. I recommend this class.

Very well prepared. A master of the material. Great board work. Very clear and understandable. I wish he would have spent more time giving the motivations, and intuitions for definitions and theorems, even though after some serious thinking a student will usually figure it out alone.

Much better than my 151 teacher. His notes are organized and easy to understand. Averages on the midterms are 62, 68, and 75ish. Study for each and you'll do fine. The final is nearly impossible, but you'll get a decent curve. He is one of the better math teachers at OSU.

I took 1181H. I was in a higher class and dropped down into this one after a couple of weeks. He was very helpful. He has extra office hours before midterms and the midterms are the same format as the review. He adds in a couple take home quizzes and easy homeworks to boost grades after midterms. Great professor overall- really knows the material!

Fiedorowicz is a genius. He gives fair quizzes and midterms, and offers a good buffer of extra credit. His accent and choice of sweaters can be hilarious. Take advantage of the extra credit, and go to class for questions similar to the exam problems.

Z-Bigs is probably the only teacher that can make honors calculus a class worth taking. The cutest old man ever, he is extremely knowledgable but class can seem intimidating. He offers a ton of extra credit and out of class office hours. Take home quizzes and problem sets help pad the grade. His best quality is his dress game: straight grandpa

He is extremely knowledgable, but sometimes is hard to understand in class. Go to office hours, there are usually not many people there, and he explains things so well. He also does problems similar to the quizzes and tests. He offers extra credit and his practice midterms help tremendously for the actual ones. Plus, he's so adorable.

He's a great guy who's there to help you whenever you may need it.

The class is very tough, but "Zig" really cares about his students' success. If you come to office hours, he will always give you as much help as you need.

I really enjoyed having Zig as a professor. This was the most challenging courses I have ever take. Be ready to give up your life. However, if you put in the required amount of work then you will get a lot out of it.

His class is difficult, but fair.

Took both 4181H and 4182H with Zig. Fair grader, given the proof-based nature of the classes, but make sure you justify your work. Homework sets are very long, so expect to put in some effort. He often diverges from the text. Take-home exams save exam grades. Very helpful if you go to office hours.

Great professor, very eager to help if you need it

Zig is a solid professor for 4181H but you will need to put in the work to get results. You will get lots of long homeworks but he is flexible about the due dates if you ask him to push it back in class. Sometimes his handwriting is a little hard to read but his lectures are very useful and his curves are extremely generous

Zig is a great professor. He really cares about his craft and his students. The class is lecture heavy and be ready to do a LOT of homework. That being said, the problems are helpful and the exams are fair. ZIg does a great job at putting some panache in the otherwise dry subject.

Zig is a really solid instructor for 4181H (Analysis I). I learned so much from him about single variable calculus! However, a tragedy is that his 4182H (Analysis II) lectures which are not as enjoyable as those for Analysis I, which perhaps is due to the level of students in the 4182H session - (confusingly) much lower than that of 4181H session!

In this term, Zig gave a lot of extra credits which certainly made him more respected among his students. There is a Chinese proverb which goes like "if you ever want to learn Analysis, then you should learn it from Zig": His handouts are amazing (although some times full of typos! ): very helpful to do well in his tests or to learn some new math!

I'm a freshman and Zbigniew Fiedorowicz is my favorite professor so far. If you are willing to put in some work, you would receive a good grade. The exams and quizes are usually easier that the stuff he talks about during class. You should hand in homeworks in time but he is pretty flexible with them.

Excellent.

I felt that he was very fair in the way that he structured points and exams in the course. He always gives review problems before exams, and he has a lot of office hours throughout each week to answer questions. He also has multiple huge extra credit opportunities throughout the semester that can boost your grade multiple letters if you do them.
