Most disorganized and confusing class I have ever taken. Didn't seem to prepare lecture materials before class, frequently said contradictory statements concerning the syllabus, and gave incoherent proofs and explanations. Extremely disappointed with the complete lack of structure in the class. Had to self learn the entire course.

Prof Rodsphon is super kind and friendly towards students especially when you need help understanding the material during office hours. Invested in making sure students were learning and understanding not just specific examples but the concepts overall.

Kind professor although awfully disorganized in general. He changed our final grades last minute after having told us that he used the wrong curving system to grade and give us feedback on all of our previous assessments but most people didn't seem to have been affected much. Easy to get a good grade as he gives solutions in class.

Very nice guy. Lectures can be a little disorganized, but if you show up regularly you should be fine. Exams were not all that hard and he is a very generous grader. Overall, great class, would take again.

Rudy is great. He is so smart & passionate about math. He teaches in a way that spreads that passion to his students. He is patient, kind, and understanding. His main goal is to help students learn. But, he expects students to have a full understanding of the concepts, not just a memorization of procedures. He is very generous with grading tho

Professor Rodsphon is a great guy. Very interesting and lighthearted, but lectures seem to be erratic at times. Also doesn't do a lot of student problem-solving, so much of the work is self-studying. Was a little behind material wise but was a very knowledgeable guy.

Rudy is a fantastic person, but a lot of the lectures seemed haphazard and unprepared. I didn't really understand a lot of his explanations and had to look at khan academy, etc. to find out what was really going on (EXPECIALLY with surface integrals)

Prepares us well for exams, gets to know students well and makes the learning environment very comfortable. For multivar, he is good with the diagrams and visualizations for the multiple integrals.

One of the best professors Ive ever had. Amazing at drawing figures, which is important for Calc 3. Over all a really good guy and a good teacher.
