Reviews of professor Timothy Banham

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I'm shocked Tim has such high ratings. I have never struggled more in a class. Tim's only speed is max—he can't slow down when asked. Lectures always finish early because of how quickly he teaches material. I have to choose between paying attention and taking notes because he moves so fast I can't do both. I would never take a class with Tim again.

There's lots of resources Tim provides that make coming to class not 100% required, however in person he explains things very well and anytime you have a question he can break it down and explain it for you.

I will say he is clearly passionate about the subject, he loves math and is kind of cool in that part. Lectures are sped through and his tests are incredibly challenging and confusing to understand compared to homework and what the textbook teaches.

This class is so stressful. You'd think that the homework would be the same as the quiz. Nope, it isnt. Its different, Which is extremley frustruating because you spend all this time learning to do it one way and on the quiz it shows you a different question so you have no clue how to solve it. Also the videos in the homeworks rarley help at.

While I struggled a bit in his 224 class due to getting covid, Tim is an amazing professor! While most people find his lectures fast, I think they're the perfect pace and he explains concepts incredibly well. He does grade tough, but his tests are based on concepts you learned in the class instead of trying to trick you with hard algebra questions.

Moves very quickly through lectures so try to pay attention and ask questions to slow him down, he is always willing to answer and explain but is not always aware of how fast he is going.
