Let me preface this review by saying that I got an A+, so none of this is coming from a place of resentment about my grade. Wenhao Ou is a TERRIBLE professor. First off, his English is awful. He has a thick accent and talks extremely quietly and never faces the class, thus if you are not on the edge of your seat in the front row, you will not hear a word he says. Secondly, this guy is completely unorganized! He often arrives late and sometimes does not know how to prove the "simple" results that he offers as examples. Thirdly, Ou is an unfair grader. On a midterm, I wrote "for all it is not" instead of "there does not exist" in one line of an 8 line proof and he said that it was "unreadable." What a joke! Anybody who has taken Phil31 or any proof based math class can tell you that the negation of the for all quantifier applied to ~x is the same as negating the existential quantifier. As far as the material, I would have learned algebra better from an uneducated pile of dog shit. By the 8th lecture, our class of 35 was down to 8 attendees, so that proves just how helpful this bozo is. If you are still reading, DO NOT TAKE Math 110A with Wenhao Ou unless you have to or you already know some algebra. If you can teach yourself the material, the tests are doable, but if you rely on a helpful professor, then this class is not for you.

Straightforward class with a straightforward teacher.
