Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, I would wait with excitement to hear Prof. Hlushchanka's intro to every lecture: "'ellao evrybdy and welcome to the wrld of differenshul equashuns."

Okay, jokes aside, this course as a whole isn't that difficult as a whole, especially considering I took Math 32B the quarter before this one. Prof. Hlushchanka (whose name I definitely misspelled at least once and I never really knew how to pronounce, sorry prof!) explains things very clearly and plainly with very little room for misinterpretation. He understands how to present the material in a way that helps the students learn. He's also just genuinely a nice guy. He was very accommodating to my needs as a student. For context, this was during the COVID-19 quarantine, when we were doing everything remotely. Some of you may also remember that many online classes during this time were prone to "Zoom bombing," where random people would invade meetings to spew racial slurs and abusive language for the sake of internet trolling. We were the constant victim of that for the first two weeks of the course. In response, Prof. Hlushchanka took an hour out of his busy schedule to redo the lecture and bent over backward to make sure the lectures were safe and had adequate security to prevent that from happening. He also sent out emails apologizing to the students who felt threatened and that he would take suggestions on how to improve the security of the meetings, which was a pretty heartwarming move on his part.

Great professor, would take again. :)

I looked forward to attending lecture every time. He would great us by saying "Welcome to the world of differential equations" and that always started the class off with a good note.
Lectures were very clear and homework was manageable. We had weekly timed quizzes via grade scope. For the midterms we were given 6 hours to complete it and it took the complete 6 hours-- there was just a lot of information that needed to be written down.
I would take a class with this prof again!
