MATH 355

"Professor Daniels is an awesome lecturer. His energy in class was infectious (despite it being 10 am in the basement of smudd). You can really tell how much he cares about teaching and the subject itself. In one class, he made a minor mistake in a proof that was quickly corrected by a student, but he was so embarrassed and told us that that class would be the worst of the semester, and he wouldn't do it again. This truly showed how much he cared about being a good professor; the mistake was so minuscule (and I didn't even really know what was going on to begin with). He also told us that when he took analysis in college, he really struggled, which made him relatable. Despite his own struggle with the class, he said he was not diluting anything for us, which I believe! The problem sets took a long time, but he was very helpful during office hours. The exams were challenging too, but his feedback was helpful. I learned a lot and am really glad I took this class with Professor Daniels. If you take this class, though, make sure to know the theorems and definitions by heart!"

"He is a passionate lecturer and emphasizes the importance of scratch work (he works on the side chalkboard often). He typically does not provide answer keys to homework and graders may take a while to return feedback, so be ready to ask any questions in class/during office hours/through email/etc. If you aren't solid on definitions, theorems, etc. and proof-writing techniques, you will likely struggle."

"Professor Kraisler made a difficult class like analysis seem easy. His lectures were engaging and easy to follow. He was always willing to answer student questions in class and office hours and made the point to say that no question was stupid. Homework was extremely time consuming and difficult, but midterms were much easier than it. There were quizzes every 2-3 weeks , which were sometimes tricky, but much better prep for the midterms than the homework. "

"Professor Ching is great, clear lecturer with very fair exams!"
