Winter 2023 - If Brian Shin has a million supporters, I AM ONE OF THEM. If Brian Shin has a thousand supporters, I AM ONE OF THEM. If Brian Shin has one supporter, I AM THAT SUPPORTER. If he has no supporters, THEN I AM DEAD. IF THE WORLD IS AGAINST BRIAN SHIN, I AM AGAINST THE WORLD.

Fall 2024 - Shin is the goat. Had him for both 32A and 33A, and man did he improve in those 2 quarters in between the two. He is down to earth, easy to approach, funny, and takes baby steps to make sure to understand the material. He is extremely helpful during office hours, he's willing to do nearly the entire homework on the white board in those 2 hours if you wanted to check your work. True/False Questions are tricky but as long as you read the textbook you should be in the clear because you will not find all the theorems he throws at you in the lectures just warning you that. I made that mistake on the first midterm and bombed it, but I really stepped it up for the next 2. He is also such a goated teacher whenever I see a partial derivative or matrix, I'm pretty confident in my abilities to do it thinks to this goat making other classes like Econ 11, 32B, Stats 20, Math 33B and probably many other classes so much easier. There are points this schoolyear where I walked out of an exam for an entirely different unrelated class but the intersections of 32A or 33A push me enough over the line to get the grade I want. This goat help me be requalified for the stats major after I was weeded out because of 32b. He watered down all the previous Calculus so we'll especially 32a that I am pretty confident in my calc 3 abilities. I want to take his 115a someday even tho it legit has nothing to do with my major!! So if you want a teacher with pretty good coattail effects take this goat!!

Spring 2023 - As the weakest student entered the classroom Brian Shin realized he realized the student was about to drop. He asked the student “are you not studying enough because you are failing or are you failing because you are not studying enough”. The student who had left it all behind responded equally “If you were unable to understand any of the concepts, would you drop?” Brian Shin responded “Nah I’d learn”. He knew it was time to take action, and said “Stand Proud you are capable”. Unbeknownst to the student, Brian Shin activated his domain expansion “extended office hours”. As the overwhelming intensity of the linear algebra crushed the student, he could only ask one thing, “how?” Brian Shin responded “You failed to consider two things: one, always bet on the professor. And two, throughout heaven and earth, i alone am the diagonalizable one”
