The tests are extremely hard. Many definitions to memorize, but only got about five main problems in the exams. Correspondingly, you will loss lot of points if you forgot or mess up one idea. Hard to get good grades.

3 exams worth 80% of your grade, and all the exams are extremely hard. His lectures are interesting but they are very hard to understand.

The professor is nice, but his tests are really hard and you hardly get extra credit. You have to remember a lot of definition and theorems, but this cannot assure you a good grade.

You can tell Professor Leung has a lot of fun lecturing because hes always making jokes. His lectures are pretty good and the material isnt impossibly difficult. His exams are just like the homework and hes pretty good at explaining concepts. He holds solid review sessions for exams which is uncommon for higher level math classes.

Leung is a very nice old man, but you really have to go to class and pay attention. His accent and handwriting can be hard to understand at times, but for the most part are alright. He's really funny and does examples exactly like the test questions. He tends to say some weird stuff involving munchkins, like from the wizard of oz. Overall cool guy

Comment:
I loved Mr. Leung. I had him for Honors 242 and although the course itself is difficult he is a very lenient grader. His tests and quizzes are just practice problems he assigns, but he assigns a lot of them. 4 quizzes, 2 tests, a final, 1 project and about 5 homework assignments. He is a funny and sweet old man and if you study you'll be fine

Instruction felt vague. I wish he assigned more homework. Second test was an awful exam. 3 questions, and despite all my studying I got a grade < 50 because 3 questions is such a small sample of knowledge.

He is very hard to understand. I took AP Calc 1 and 2 in high school and got 5s on both of the exams, but took Calc 2 again with him only to get a C-. Homework is very tricky and vague. The way he presents the material just doesn't click with me, even though it's my forte. I later took Calc 3 with a grad student teacher at U of D and got an A.

This class was an absolute DISASTER for me, and I say this after taking 242 and getting 98% as my final grade. He isn't clear at all. Homework takes forever to complete because of the flawed understanding you get in class. I heavily relied on the textbook but that only got me so far. His grading is messed up. Just DON'T take him if you can.

Comment:
This professor is so hard and sometimes hard to understand with his accent. Take good notes because he does a bunch of proofs and expects you to do a similar one on the exams. He likes to make a lot of references about munchkin land and baseball to explain the math concepts but they're more of a distraction than they're effective.

took the honors section. I also got a 5 on AP BC calc b4 the class. Honestly, I think this class is hard as anything. He explains all the proofs, but also is hard to understand.. Homework is extremely tricky. Leave plenty of time for it. Tests are hard&short, don't spend too much time on ?'s. review notes & the text & should be fine.

Most importantly, he wants his students to do well. If you don't understand something, go to his office hours. That said, is otherwise not the best teacher. He is hard to understand in lecture, and makes fun of students in class. Also he does not nest you on your mastery of the material, you are tested on little tricks that he shows you in class.

First off, this guy is hilarious and very kind. Really wants students to do well. Sometimes very hard to understand and notes are unclear. Tests are difficult - doesn't follow the notes, but he gives a huge curve at the end.

Hilarious to listen to. Not 100% clear, but go to class, take notes and pay attention. Tests are hard, but quiz questions are the examples from the book. Make sure you know them! Do well on the homework, quizes, and maple work and you should pass. Study hard for the tests, strict grading on them.

Good teacher overall, just keep up on the practice problems and study for tests and quizzes. People say he is hard but he is not hard at all, the tests and quizzes are easier than the homeworks.

Lecture is unorganized, jumps around randomly between topics, repeats the last 10 minutes of what he said at the end of the last lecture at the beginning of the next. Sometimes puts questions on the tests that look nothing at all like anything from the practice problems.

I'm surprised at how many unkind reviews there are here. Leung can be hard to understand and he does move quickly, but communicates well with examples. He is funny and more than willing to help, if one is willing to ask. He does have very high standards and always seems disappointed when they are not met. All in all a decent professor.
