Comment:
Professor Shatah is one of the best professors in the math department. This guy literally knows everything there is to know about math. He can be intimidating at times, especially when he calls on you out of nowhere to answer a problem, but taking his class will make you a better mathematician. Very fair tests and homeworks.

Comment:
Professor Shatah is tough and intimidating, but one of the best in the dept. It's not hard to remember something when you know he might call on you and ask you to recite it off the top of your head. He is actually very nice and willing to help. If you want any sort of proper training to become a mathematician, definitely take him. LOTS of homework.

Comment:
My favorite math teacher to date. Absolutely brilliant. He is available as much as possible and will even talk to you about math topics outside of class material. Tests are tough. Get used to it, math is tough. Gives lots of leeway if the class isn't doing well. If you're not sure of your math major, take shatah, you will know once you're done.

Comment:
Spent over an entire class lecture on one concept because we were confused; very responsive to feedback and class needs. But, for very high level stuff he can help you through things but only once you have the basic understanding. Very tough grader, and very tough exams (also does not keep his word about material on exams)

Comment:
He was a great teacher, I think he is the only teacher that makes PDE sound interesting, most of his proves weren't that formal, but it was a graduate course so I appreciate that he gave us more intuition than formalism. The exam wasn't terribly hard but also wasn't a piece of cake.

Comment:
Professor Shatah knows his stuff when it comes to calculus. Better yet, he knows how to teach it. Very good at explaining concepts. Can go fast at times, but don't be afraid to ask questions. Tests are quite difficult, but he takes notice of whether or not you are trying. Overall a very good and fair teacher.
