I really liked this professor! He was always kind and smiling in lecture, explained concepts clearly, and had a VERY fair hw policy. After every class, he would post a series of questions from the textbook that are good practice of the material we just covered, at the end of the week, only 2 of those questions will be asked to be uploaded and turned in as homework. To be clear, you only have to do those 2 questions if you feel confident with the material, or if you had a bad week with other classes! This is really great because you only have to study what you want and as much as you need to in order to learn a concept! Secondly, the tests felt very fair, and many of the questions were extremely similar to the practice problems the professor posted.
If you’re able to take this professor, take him!

Amazing professor! I'd take him for all of my math classes if I could.
-He explains things very well and is happy to clarify things in class. He is also always happy to help in office hours and very understanding.
-Has two grading schemes to help you succeed.
-If you understand the homework you should be well prepared for the exams
-He makes the class very interesting and engaging (I really loved the class and enjoyed the material because of how he taught it)
-Posts his class notes on canvas (attendance not required but I'd recommend)

I found this class to be straightforward/easy, but ik not everyone else did. Fully depends on your background in calculus. Show up to class, take notes, do the homework, and go to office hours with questions. My TA was Benjamin Major, and he is awesome. His discussions are useful because they help you grasp the theory/understand why certain formulas work, etc. His office hours are also great; he'll help you a ton with problems you don't understand.

There are two midterms and one final. Homework assignments are about ten problems after each lecture, but you don't turn them in. At the end of the week, it picks two problems from all that were assigned that week and has you turn them in. Check your work with a friend and it should be easy points.

The midterms are during the lecture (40-50 mins long) and have problems that are exactly like homework. Honestly, it's pretty predictable what kinds of problems will be tested on the midterm if you do all the homework problems. Also, none of them are word problems; he gives you the numbers straight up.
