Amazing lectures and very helpful overall. Loved the notes being written out and having them available for later.
Amazing teacher! He makes algebra almost fun because he is really funny and he is a good teacher. Students can tell that he really cares and he wants them to succeed.
BEST TEACHER EVER. I was never the best at math, but his teaching style just clicked. He was super funny and made class interesting. He was very easy to talk to and ask questions. He would come to the smart lab after class and help anyone in need. He's an amazing teacher but also a great person. I wish he was teaching pre-calc so I could take him again!! Hands down my favorite professor!!
He's a great teacher. He helped me to understand things I did not understand before in Algebra. His learning style is really beneficial to me because it's straight to the point, concise, and he explains very well.
Professor Sze was excellent. He presented information very clearly and did an excellent job on helping the students understand how to work though the math problems. Would definitely recommend professor Sze to anyone who will be taking this class.
Excellent instructor! Clear and easy to understand. Does not waste time - is prepared and to the point during all lectures. Is available in the Math Lab and assists some evenings for hours after class - beyond what I would expect an instructor to do. Strong communication skills and patient with students.
Excellent Professor! He often stayed late to help us understand assignments and to reach skill mastery. Explanations were clear and relevant to skills measured.
First math teacher that really helped me grasp the concepts that i needed to understand to do well on tests and homework. Was always available to help during lab. That made a huge difference in me being able to successfully pass the course. I wish I could take him for Calculus.
He's a wonderful teacher who made me like math. He makes difficult subjects easy to understand.
Professor Sze was awesome! So kind and straightforward. His greatest strengths as an instructor are his awesome visual presentations and use of technology to illustrate concepts. I've always found math classes intimidating but this class was very accessible with professor sze. There are plenty of generous opportunities to succeed and I am not concerned for my grade. I would absolutely take another class with him as instructor.
He is very good at telling the class what we need to know and explaining how to do different math concepts. Although the class is large, I feel like Mr. Sze has time for everyone and is always available to assist.
Great instructor, explained in ways everyone can understand and never thought a questions was dumb. He made the class a breeze.
Mr. Sze did a great job explaining each chapter really well to the point where I was like "okay okay! I want to try" which is incredible! It's like someone holding your hand while you get comfortable riding a bike! Once I got the hang of it I was ready to roll!
With respect to Mr. Sze, he was always on time and throughout his lectures you could see the thought and consideration that he put into them on a daily basis. I can adamantly say that he was an excellent teacher and the way that he carried himself and the class was superb.
He has been one of the best math instructor I have ever had. He is very easy to follow and his examples make it easy to understand outside of class
Great Professor! It was very easy to understand the material, because he is SO good explaining it. His notes are the best! He was always trying to help the students and making the class more fun for everyone!
Great professor who taught clearly and in a fashion which could enable any student no matter their strength in math to excel.
Great teacher. Always allows me to understand concepts and is concise and efficient. Both in class and in the SmartLab. Really amazing math teacher!
Although I didn't touch this material for 25 year (ca.) Prof Sze was teaching it very thorough and well, was completely available during his office hours at the math lab and very patience. His excellency reminded how "magical" algebra is and pushed me forward for an A+. Everyone should take Collage Algebra with him as an instructor.
He is a very very great professor i have learned so much from him. He explains each lesson in great detail and provides information that makes you excel very well in the class. I would recommend to
He was a great professor who taught college algebra in a way that was easy to understand! It is usually very hard for me to grasp concepts in math but the way he explained them was better than expected. My final grade was a 99% and I accredit a majority of that grade to Professor Sze for being such an excellent professor.
He was a very good professor who took time to explain the math he taught so that it was comprehensible. I have had the displeasure of being taught by many bad math teachers over the years, and I say this not because of their personality, but because of their inability to teach the material in a way that helped students actually learn it, and Professor Sze is most definitely not one of those. He had many examples, he didn't speak in a low monotone voice that puts students to sleep, he would ask his students if they did indeed comprehend the question, and his teaching hall didn't feel like a place of pressure, but of actual learning. He did his job very well. So thank you Professor Sze for making sense - J*** P***, an appreciative student
I enjoyed having you as a professor because math usually does not come easy to me but the way you went over the lesson I actually understood what I was doing.
This is the first Math class in which I felt I could effectively take notes and learn from them. Professor Sze was straight forward and gave plenty of examples to cover different variations of problems that may had been encountered in the course in order to help properly prepare for tests and quizzes.
The professor was excellent in assisting students both in and out of class even in the smart labs, and was overall an excellent professor explaining things thoroughly and showing a true sign of care for his work and students.
Professor Sze was the best teacher I've had in a long time and the best professor I've had all year. Does a great job teaching the material but an even better job reviewing and answering any questions we had very respectfully (not matter how simple the question was). He genuinely checked all the boxes. Great professor!
Professor Sze is fantastic. He works through the lessons with the class and provides examples of problems so students always know what to expect on homework, quizzes, and exams. Professor Sze is also very forgiving in the way he structures his class assignments and tests by allowing a certain amount of low grades to be dropped. Additionally, I really like how he uses the tablet to hand write out his notes. That kind of note taking greatly improves content understanding. I'm glad I switched professors for this course.
Professor Sze makes this course enjoyable and easy to be successful in. He navigates through each topic in a good amount of time and makes sure that everyone understands.
Fantastic professor! Always gave very clear and concise instructions. I'm usually horrible at math, but Prof. Sze explained everything so well that even I was able to understand every lesson. He was also always quick to respond to any questions I had which I greatly appreciated.
Professor Christopher Sze is thorough in his teaching and competent in his anticipation of student response. He seems perfectly fit for his position. Although I am not gifted in mathematics, Christopher Sze pivots comfortably through analogy and understands numbers as figures, an understanding which he often utilizes to simplify concepts that are complex to me.
Professor Sze had a very structured and organized course and communicated the course incredibly well. For many students, algebra may be a far gone and lost memory but he made it very easy and clear to understand the material
Professor Cze was the best professor I had this semester. He explained everything with patience and step-by-step. He also occasionally made fun jokes which made the class mood better. The time I had to contact him on teams he responded very quickly and did his best to help me. This was the class I had the most fun and it made me like math again.
Professor Sze clearly explains the coursework and breaks down difficult problems in a way that makes it easier for students to comprehend. He genuinely seems to care for his students and wants them to succeed. Professor Sze is definitely one of the best professors I've had so far.
I appreciate this course so much more than I can put into words. I used to be a math wiz and during high school I completely lost my passion for math, but this class really reinvigorated that.
