The professor was incredibly kind all throughout the summer session. The class was relatively easy comparing to my other math classes but I'm guessing this is because difeq is a lot more of a problem solving type of math rather than like proofs and stuff. I liked the professors style of giving a lot of homework because it did make me learn a lot more but be warned it's quite a bit. He didn't set a deadline for any of the homework and just made it so that you can turn it in at the end of the quarter. Well, I procrastinated and the last few days were just misery. He makes you do upwards of 15 problems a day for every class day. The midterms and finals weren't bad however (very expectable) and he even offered an extra credit project. He really wants you to participate!

Prof. K is solid professor for multivariable calculus. Koffi has so many resources from making his own youtube videos, his recorded lecture videos, and other notes/problems just in case. He also always asks in lecture if people understand and is easy to reach outside class. Made Math 32a so much more bearable.

Great lecturer. Engaging course. Homework assignments were heavy but I learned a lot from this class. Will take him again.

I took Multivariable Calculus with Professor Koffi, and the class was a joy. The course required effort to be put in, watching the lectures and doing homework ahead of time. Koffi gave lots of great online resources and was always available to help answer questions. Be ready for content-rich tests.

It was pretty chill, but he assigns basically the entire textbook for homework. Apart from insanely long homework assignments, it was good.

Math 61 for the Summer 2021 term was originally taught by Prof. Ozel. When Ozel left in the middle of Summer session A due to issues with his visa, Prof. Enakoutsa came in to substitute. Enakoutsa did a nice job teaching Math 61.

Enakoutsa, while not the clearest lecturer (I strongly preferred Ozel's lectures to Enakoutsa's), genuinely cares about his students' learning and provides a lot of office hours for students to ask questions. He encourages students to unmute themselves in lecture to ask clarifying questions. While his answers aren't always the clearest, Enakoutsa is committed to improving his teaching ability. He takes student feedback on his teaching seriously.

His tests were rather straightforward and 24 hour open note. During the end of the course, Enakoutsa sent an angry email to everyone about one of his students' evaluations on his teaching (allegedly it said Enakoutsa interrupted students in lecture ...). He could have responded in a calmer, less defensive manner.

A combination of bad handwriting and an accent makes it slightly difficult to keep up. If you zone out for a minute you are done for and might as well leave and just watch the recording later. He is super nice though and a very genuinely caring teacher who remembers peoples' names and cares that we understand things well. He was accommodating of me not being able to come to live lectures on days I had work even though he asked us to come to live lecture. He did assign over 100 problems a week (lots of which were the challenge problems which would take 10x as long) but that might be because it was summer (6 weeks).

LOVED Professor Koffi. Prepare to go to office hours frequently as his problem sets are relatively difficult compared to what you learn in class, but once you do the tests are a breeze. This was one of my favorite classes and Professor Koffi is an absolute sweetheart who cares so much about her students. Absolutely recommend taking a class with him!

This review is meant for either people who are slightly above or average knowledge in math. It's my second year here at UCLA, and looking back this is easily the worst class I have ever taken. I consider myself a good student in Math, and Koffi made the topics so much harder than they actually needed to be. First, it was because he has a very thick accent and a cursive-like handwriting that makes the material difficult to understand. Secondly, he drags on and on about pointless examples, but when you try and do the homework about 25% is actually related to what we did in class. The other 75% are challenge problems that are significantly harder than anything in the textbook. The worst part is the tests and midterms are similar to the challenge problems and contain multiple steps. They are meant to be taken in 50 minutes, but most students took a minimum of 8 hours for the midterms, and some students I know took 20 hours on the "3 hour final" because they had to learn so much new PHD level material. These are unlike anything that we practice in class or on the homework, and if you have a bad understanding of the textbook you would definitely fail. Whenever I went to his office hours it was a total shitshow, he does parts of the problems that you don't understand and just expects you to know how to do the rest on your own. He might be a nice guy, but he expects his students in the class to have a level of math knowledge already comparable to like a grad student.

Welcome to another quarter where the lazy, uneducated, and illiterate students who think they are entitled to pass classes without putting an effort become writers on a blog very tolerant to insults limit racists. The professor is African. Maybe that what bother you given the amount of ignorance and stupidity people vehiculate on that part of the earth at the age (oh Please!!!!!!!!!) of INTERNET! He has an accent because his first language is not English. Stop this stupidity! His handwriting is the most beautiful I have ever seen. Please stop the stupidity and go back to your textbooks and work. You will have a lot to gain rather than complaining. Keep writing the crap things about hime here and yes you are on a way to a great scholar success.
