Gannon is a super engaging lecturer. I didn't always understand concepts immediately but I think he explained them pretty well. The class content is interesting, I think, and Gannon's enthusiasm really shows. One of the more fun math classes.
Professor Gannon is the best part of this course. His comedy background forms a beautiful combination with his mathematical mind, making lectures a joy to attend. Admittedly, I did find the two weeks weeks a little dull because the course is designed to set up vital terms and concepts before jumping into anything remotely useful. The textbook is mediocre. It is not an official companion, and while the overall organization follows the course, there are many deviations and the explanations in the book are subpar at best. Exams are very fair. Grading is equally fair. Great course, nothing but praise and a few nitpicks.
Gannon is one of the best professors I have had so far at UCLA. He is very understanding and seems to genuinely care about his students. His lectures are engaging and funny. He goes at a pace that is very reasonable for teaching new content and his tests were very fair. The homework was also not overwhelming. If you can take math 31A with him I would strongly suggest you do so. He is passionate about math which makes the students more engaged and super approachable if you need to ask questions. He is awesome!
Professor Gannon is a funny and engaging lecturer who assumes very little of the students when teaching introductory calculus. He made this class very manageable and welcoming for students who lacked a calc background.
