Nice, and funny guy. Made the material much more confusing than it was. Should've been easy A but his teaching style and organization made this class extremely hard to follow. Curve in the class, though.

It was the easiest class I have taken. There are a few quizzes, but they are very easy. She is super friendly and understanding. There is not much homework.
