Comment:
First and foremost, Victor is not a bad person. However, he can not speak English properly despite that he has been teaching for almost a decade. He has a very thick accent and speaks really fast. I only attended the first few classes then I decided to teach myself instead because it is much easier this way.

He is so bad I wanna give him a 0 but that's not possible so I'll give him a 1. If you see him in your schedule switch, he is not a bad person, I personally he is just not good at teaching the material.

Comment:
There's not much I can say tbh. Not a good prof and teaches like we all know the material already. He does the first step of an equation and says to figure the rest out by ourselves. First midterm was mad messed up and the class average was a 35%. Gives useless practice questions since midterms are some next stuff. AVOID at all costs no cap.

He teaches material thats not even on midterms, and doesnt give you enough time to answer questions during the midterms. Most of us had 5-6 questions left with 3 minutes to answer them, and had to guess for all of them. When we brought up our issues to him during the lecture and emailed him, he dismissed all of us. Its clear he will not change.

He says to go over the h.w and tutorials to be prepared for the exam. However, the exam is nothing like the h.w. The concepts are much more complex in the exam and you only have an 1.5 hrs for it.

All my classes I had good teachers but the class with him teaching it. Hes a nice but how can you Learn math when you dont understand his sentences. All he cares about is finishing his slides. You will have to do everything yourself. I couldnt switch out cause everything was full. Class should be called math in mandarin.

Suprisingly, this class went better than QMS 130 but still wouldn't take this prof again. Try and take bootcamps before this course, he doesn't teach you how to use them for the group project.

Nice professor but he does not speak a word of English. He is very keen to teach us Mandarin in his lecture.... Bravo if you have him as your professor.

I had no choice but to take him, since there were no other profs. If in my situation, before tests go to his review sessions sometimes exact questions will be on the test. The TA review is also helpful. Stopped going to class halfway and just studied the tutorial questions. He tries hard and cares, its a tough course to teach I guess.

Victor is such a sweet man. He really cares for his students and if you ask him for help with your mark he will most likely help. Not gonna lie he does have a thick accent and it is hard to pay attention to his full lectures since it is 3 straight hours of math. But, just go to his review sessions before tests as they are EXTREMELY HELPFUL.

I basically did the whole course by myself. It is literally impossible to understand him. And when you do understand him he just reads of slides quickly. PLEASE AVOID HIM.

A lot of negative reviews. Yes I agree his accent is a hassle to listen to but he posts all recordings, watch them in 2x speed you will realize he CAN TEACH. Don't blame the prof for your lack of intelligence, put in the effort and you can get a good mark if you stop making excuses. Got an A+.

The worst prof I have ever had. DOES NOT SPEAK A WORD OF ENGLISH. Makes the tests and exams very difficult! spends entire lecture showing how formulas are derived, rather than actually solving problems. R coding is very difficult for beginners and is used for the course, and this prof expects you to be a pro from day 1. AVOID IF POSSIBLE!!!
