Reviews of professor Nickolas Castro

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Dr. Castro is my favorite professor I've had for many reasons. Overall he is a pleasure to work with and is super helpful in his office hours. He can make the most complicated subjects easy to comprehend.

Castro is a very balanced professor. He talks to us about random stuff every class, but gets through plenty of material. He explains in great detail when someone does not understand what's going on. Some of the homework is very long, and the three exams are very important for your grade.

I truly enjoyed Dr. Castro's Linear Algebra class. Even though this was his first time teaching an online math class, I had no problems contacting him via email or Zoom. He is always willing to help dissect difficult material if you ask him questions at his office hours or during lecture. I really appreciated his dedication for his students !

Dr. Castro gets a 4 from me, but the class structure gets a 2. This class is very difficult and your grade is determined by 3 exams and a final accounting for 70% of your grade. Another 15% is quizzes. The exams and quizzes are very challenging and tricky. Dr. Castro is a good professor, but gets a 4 because of never responding to emails.

Dr. Castro is super helpful. He excels in office hours and will go over concepts you don't understand until they make sense. I would definitely take again. Calculus 1 isn't that hard of a class and if you put in effort you will do well. He really trys to make math fun and pushes his students to do well. Most importantly doesn't use slides to teach.
