Incredibly unclear and unwilling to help. Literally made fun of me for not understanding a concept when I came to his office hours for help. Anything that a whole class doesn't understand he just writes off as "trivial" and moves on. Avoid taking a class with him at all costs.

I learned more in two hours using MIT OpenCourseWare on youtube than I did in two months of his lectures, which consisted of him quoting the textbook to the blackboard. Assigned 20-30 questions out of the book each week and had undergrads grade four of them. It was really something to spend 5+ hours a week on homework that wasn't graded.

Can you recite the textbook verbatim? Then you can give the same lectures that this professor did. If you can teach yourself everything, then this class is a breeze. If you can't, I'd avoid taking him.
