Full disclaimer: I'm don't like math too much. So I found his lectures to be a bit dry and long-winded, but given the context of Zoom classes, he really made a strong effort to explain the bigger concepts while using concrete examples which i appreciated. Best thing about him is that he held multiple office hours a week and was extremely accessible

Super nice guy. Super helpful in office hours. Pretty dry lecturer, and kind of confusing. Just walks in and writes proofs on the board for an hour, doesnt stop for people to ask questions. Not too hard though and once again a super nice, helpful guy.

Professor Chi's lectures tend to be hampered by a sense of disorganziation, but his coverage of material is good. Both the midterm exam and final were take-home, and he was generous with hints both in class and in office hours.
