Winter 2025 - Not really sure what to say other than to avoid. He’s never really clear in his instruction and his lectures are sometime outright incorrect. Everyone will get 1-2 specific things wrong on an exam and Koffi will complain but not clarify what would’ve been correct. His homework starts off fine but as the weeks go on they get progressively longer. The last homework was 43 parts long. He posts practice exams but not solutions. There’s maybe only really 10-15 minutes of actual lecturing (which is wrong) and the rest are rants (including “fake” reviews lol) or “life” advice. Also he “forgot” to let us know that we could use cheat sheets on the first two midterms. At least he remembered for the final. But then he banned calculators because he believes you can put ChatGPT on them (which is only sort of true and more hassle than it’s worth). TLDR is don’t take Koffi if you’re interested in Math and value your time.

Summer 2023 - Horrible class. By far the worst class Ive ever taken anywhere * Ridiculous amount of hw, totally unrelated to lecture content * Disorganized, unclear lectures. Difficult to know what section we are on * Unreasonably fast-paced * Indecipherable handwriting (not his fault but accent tbh) Don't be fooled by his fake reviews lol, you dont need to be sherlock holmes to decipher which ones are fabricated. Pathetic behavior if you ask me--just screams a fragile ego. Honestly I have no idea how this guy is employed by UCLA. He gives off a good facade of a caring prof but this class has caused me so much unnecessary stress. Avoid at all costs

Winter 2026 - You might think this class is hard, but it's not that bad. The problem is that the professor's teaching is really torturous. His thick accent and postmodern deconstructionist-style blackboard writing make it impossible for you to understand what he's saying and teaching. As a result, I had to study this course all by myself throughout the quarter.
