Comment:
Quite possibly the hardest class I have taken in my entire life. I took part of this class in high school, and somehow he managed to make me forget all of it. We're 7 weeks into the class and he still doesn't know anyone's name. And he puts things on his tests that he doesn't explain in class, and I could go on and on, but I'm at my character limit

He doesn't understand that some people have to work extremely hard to understand calculus. He puts things on tests that you wouldn't even think of doing and is of no help at all

Comment:
Terrible professor. Relies on an ineffective proof-based lecture system. Grading is intense, and the exams are hard. Perhaps he's too smart, perhaps we whine about not getting an easy A, but I say definitely avoid. If you want to learn integrals, TAKE CALC 2 AT A COMMUNITY COLLEGE.

This is a great class if you like a professor who doesn't care enough about you to learn your name. In addition, his tests are very hard, you will end up teaching yourself most of the material, and he cannot even bother to be in his office for extra hours the day before a test. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Very difficult to understand, I felt that he could do much better using another book rather than his own. He used his own examples in class, So we only had one source of information
