Reviews of professor Sebastian Ahmed-Garay

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
To be honest Sebastian Ahmed-Garay's class was my second attempt at trying to pass this class online , and it was a great class! His lectures are pre- recorded so there isn't mandatory attendance which I appreciated! Every time I emailed him about a problem he always responded right away! I am NOT a natural at math & I passed, just put in effort.

I've taken two courses with this professor. At first I didn't like him, but then I realized I just didn't like Calculus. He was intimidating at first, but we later learned that he's a fun guy. He tells stories in the middle of class which makes us all smile, and has in-depth lectures on the materials we'll be using for the week.

This class was the most difficult class I have taken. The professor is very harsh with his tone which discouraged me from asking questions. He is a tough grader, is not accommodating to anyones situation, is quite intimidating and the class was incredibly stressful. I am shocked by his other ratings as my experience in his class was the opposite.

Sebastian was the best math teacher I've ever had. This was especially important since I was taking him for my last required math class, Applied Calc 2. He is funny in class and will take the time to explain things to people with questions. He also has great office hours where he will answer your homework questions 1 on 1.

This class is very difficult but I had fun with math 116. As long as you work hard you'll be fine in his class, he's a funny dude and is willing to take his time helping students. I emailed him at midnight and he responded right away helping me through problems. He offers extra credit on exams and the final. Don't procrastinate and you'll live.

Great professor. Much better in person than online though. Really helped me with my phobia of maths. The textbook he uses is really good and he will use resources made by other lecturers to help you if they produce a better teaching aid. He will help you however his classes build on previous material so ask for help early or he will be annoyed.

Sebastian is a really fun professor to be around. At first, I was a bit scared of him because he gave off an intimidating vibe. Math 116 was definitely harder and more challenging compare to other math class, if you are staying on top of your homework and attend lectures and tutoring. Math 116 has definitely helped me to think faster in other parts

This is my second course with Prof. Sebastian. He is awesome and his teaching style is very clear. He's supportive and cares that his students get the concept well. He's also considerate and takes into account any concerns. Extra office hours after every Zoom session for questions. I found this class's transition online very easy and doable.
