Matthew cares about his students, and is frequently funny during classes. He is clear, and all the exams are fair (extremely easy as a 24 hrs exam). The only reasons I am give a rating of four are that the course material are easy and his pace of teaching is too slow for me, but that can also be a pro for anyone crammed with other hard classes.

This class is fairly easy. There isn't anything extremely bad from my experience. I was scared because another Bruinwalk review under math 156 said he wasn't that good. True that he doesn't curve, but I mean, it's not that bad; don't really need to curve. Obviously not every be getting an A, but I believe he's still easy on grading.

The tests are fine too. He tests on homework problems and proofs done in class. It's not shot in the dark. I mean, like what other material are you going to be tested on? Chemistry? He does release like a "things to know" sheet before the test, but just review your notes, understand the concept deeply, and you'll be good!

Only complaint is that his grading for tests is annoying: hardly any partial credit. So make sure you think of all the edge cases and thoroughly explain your proofs.

Homework is from the book (so plenty of help online)
Lectures are okay. Wish there was a "skip the intro" button. He rewrites what he did the last lecture for the first 10 minutes. He also looks reeeally bored. Sounds like he doesn't want to be there. But he's a good teacher.

This professor is really chill and a pretty good lecturer. The homework is generally easy with a few difficult problems here and there. The tests are pretty fair, although the only problem is that he doesn't provide practice problems to study for the test. The tests mostly go over what is covered in class anyways so this is not a huge problem. Overall I definitely recommend this professor for this class.
