Extremely helpful and the first calculus teacher I've had in college that actually knew what he was talking about. I'd recommend scheduling him if at all possible.

Amazing professor! He doesn't stray from the topic and is very clear. I learned a lot from his class.

Amazing Professor! Koffi is incredibly intelligent so he somewhat rambles during lectures. Sometimes difficult to follow along. However, he's literally one of the most caring people I've ever met. Replies to emails at 4 am with paragraph-long answers and admits that he can't sleep because he worries if our final is fair. Quizzes and exams were very fair.

The best part about Prof. Enakoutsa is, without a doubt, his care for his students and the emphasis he places on education. Unlike some professors who treat teaching as a chore (so it seems), Koffi will always put time into your learning process and try his best to accommodate when possible. He's hosted numerous review sessions in his spare time, is timely with answering questions on campuswire, and is overall a genuinely nice, approachable professor. His homework is fair, and he always claims that his homework questions are harder than his exam questions, which is true for the most part if you primarily consider the more difficult (but not crazy difficult) homework problems to be the standard for comparison. As a freshman, the amount of homework he gave seemed to be expected for a college-level calc class, but the problems are representative of the types he gives on exams so they aren't a waste of time. The problems gradually get harder throughout problem sets, but the most challenging questions never make it onto any exams. Obviously the 24 hour time slot due to COVID was a huge benefit for exams, but I don't think this course would produce crazy exams in a standard time frame anyways.

As far as his lecturing goes, I found it really helpful to read the sections he'd cover beforehand. Or if you can't, I suggest keeping the textbook open because he almost always goes through the examples in the book while he teaches. He sometimes has small algebra errors in things like derivations and examples that he has to go over, which leads to wasted time, but having the example right by you makes that less of an issue.

TLDR: Relatively easy & fair professor teaching a not-too-challenging course. I would recommend taking him!

Prof Enakoutsa really wants to help each student and cares about making sure that we understand the content. That being said, he frequently made small algebraic errors during lecture that sometimes made it harder to follow along. However, Enakoutsa is super approachable during office hours and also holds review sessions to help you understand if you are having any trouble. His tests/quizzes are not that bad because he makes sure that you learn the difficult content in the homework. Overall, I would recommend this professor!

Enakoutsa is a really nice and approachable professor who wants to see his students succeed. I took this class as an incoming freshman and found it a nice transition to college. Problem sets were assigned every Friday and due the next week, and I would say the workload is appropriate. Grading breakdown was 20% homework, 25% x 2 midterms and 30% final exam. Note that the homework is graded for accuracy, so check your work carefully! Nearer the beginning of the quarter, the professor struggled with pacing, and as we were behind schedule, he posted multiple supplemental videos for us to watch after class; however, he seemed to have figured it out nearer the end of the quarter. Additionally, he teaches practically straight out of the textbook, so read the chapters carefully, they are super helpful. Some T/F and "give-an-example" questions on his midterms were worded confusingly, but he thankfully responded to feedback and did not put those on the final. Overall, Enakoutsa was quite fair and a decent professor, and I would recommend taking his class.

My overall rating on Professor Enkoutsa Koffi is mixed. The pacing was bad and the lectures were dry and there was a mild communication barrier (ie difficult time understanding the questions students were asking) The tests were fair and he was very nice and approachable. The same could not be said for my GSI, at least for the three times I showed up to discussion. I don't appreciate these sorts of remarks "that quiz was super easy, you all should have gotten 10/10" and "Here let me make this easy for you".

I think part of it had to do with adjusting to an online format. Professor Koffi obviously cares about his students and what he teaches. He spent too much time explaining the beginning details and subsequently rushed applications of partial derivatives. I think he could have done a better job at showing students how to solve problems that were to be on the midterms and homework. Particularly when it came to generalizing ideas I took for granted in single variable calculus. I think he should have spent more time distinguishing differentiability versus having partial derivatives and not being differentiable. Many students, including myself, continually asked clarifying questions on the matter but weren't able to figure it out in the end. There was a void there.

Last point: we never got our finals back. We got our midterms back. We should have been told that.
