get more sleep
In what ways, if any, has this course or the instructor encouraged your intellectual growth and progress?:
Taught well in recitation.
He simplified the concepts and methods, which made it much more interesting and enjoyable to learn.
He makes the rescitation very interesting and easy to pay attention to.
not much, you and greenfield made me have to teach myself the material, i didnt feel like i could go to you or him for help because both of you scared me away.
Recitation made me do examples which was good practice, especially when I didn't know how to do problems (most of them)
Other comments or suggestions::
Good TA.
I think this TA is completely awesome; however, he uses course words too often. During the middle of the semester, he sent an oppinion sheet around the class and a few students definitely mentioned that he coursed too much in class. Unfortunately, these comments did not help to reduce any of it. Otherwise, he is a great TA, very helpful, and very funny (which helps to keep the attention of the students).
Although I did like the way you presented the material, please be more professional at your job. Dont slack, and yeah being funny is a good way of getting the students to life you but making fun of them is not the same as being funny. key: be professional
