Selected Comments from Students:

• He teaches the concepts from the core, not just throws formulas at you.

• I liked how the TA was very open to questions and had detailed explanations.

• Jiaxuan was a great help. He explained concepts that I found very difficult and made me understand them, even making them seem easy after his explanation. He did a wonderful job with his conference videos, because I was not always able to attend conferences, and still could see him do example problems for each chapter. He really seemed to care about our success!
