I absolutely love Dr. Childs. He is by far the best professor I've had. Not only are his lectures amazing, he'll have grades out by the next day whenever you write a midterm or exam.

Professor Childs is a god sent. His lectures make you understand what to do and all you need is some practice. The pre-lectures are very easy to follow and not too drawn-out. The live sessions he does examples and answers most questions. Once he even taught us calc:) And before lecs where people ask silly questions is quite funny too. He is awesome

Dr. Childs is hands down my favourite professor at McMaster. He answers every students question, has funny jokes and makes the class interesting. I am someone who never gives reviews to anything but this professor deserves an excellent review.

He makes the content enjoyable and is a gem. Fair tests and if you do his practice tests (without knowing the answers ahead of time) and do well on them, you'll likely get a similar mark on your midterms and exam.

If I were in waterloo, I'd be punching the air right now. Dr. Childs is a master in all senses of the word. Teaching? He's got it. Answering questions? Yup. Funny and witty responses? You bet. Monotone speaking? Yes sir. Creaky desk chair? Kinda. All jokes aside, Dr. Childs is THE standard when it comes to teaching math, we're all lucky to have him

AMAZING PROFESSOR! He really takes the time to answer any questions you have in online lectures, tests are so so fair and open book due to the class being online. He really wants everyone to succeed and his class is funny! Would definitely take another class with him again.

I love his lectures. Do the practice quizzes, do the practice problems and you will be fine! To get that A, definitely do a few more questions than are recommended but honestly, it is very possible to achieve a great grade with the amount of work he recommends to put in! Easily my favourite professor!!

A pure soul. his courses are very organized. gives you all the resources needed for you to succeed and do well. his lectures are all writing notes but they actually explain whats happening and are clear. his dark dry humour makes his class fun to go to. good course would recommend.
