Reviews of professor Sandi Xhumari

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
I really dont get why people dont like Sandi. He is literally one of the best math teachers in BC. He has a unique grading style that reduces stress a lot by having 4 opportunities to retake any of the quizzes. He also gives all the quiz questions and answers from 4 previous quarters. Amazing teacher who is very passionate about math!

Sandi really helped me struggle through a tough class (Calculus 2) and get a good grasp on the content. I came to office hours frequently and he would often spend the whole time there answering my questions. He teaches you how to be successful in any class through his unique processes. He is empowering and knows how to push you to make you better.

At no point during the course will student priority be to study calculus concepts. Grading only depends on weekly challenge problems that are difficult, fair. However, Xhumari knows what we expect on each challenge, so he will assign problems on the challenges that he knows we have not prepared for. We have a study guide, it's the entire textbook.

He's absolutely horrible. I can't even begin to express my dissatisfaction within the ratemyprof guidelines. You absolutely must avoid at all costs if you care about your GPA. The guy is a total whack job and sits around on teams 24/7. He'll spam you with bizarre, inappropriate messages; title 9 incoming.

His class is very demanding with homework due almost every day (including weekends) with breaks for tests/challenges. His tests are super tough and rarely match the online homework. His grading makes it stressful to pass the class and sometimes he will fail your test if he feels you need to learn the topic more, even if you get the answer right.

The syllabus and class layout are confusing but once you get the hang of it the class is not as hard as it seems. Your grade is based off quizzes, group quizzes, homework, and participation points. The workload is manageable. Average. Communication with the teacher isn't great. Look at previous quizzes in one note to see what it will look like.

Sandi is a very responsible professor who always tries his best to make his students learn more, which means that his workload will increase as well. He is very passionate about teaching. It was a little confusing at the beginning of the quarter, but it will get better later.  I have to say I have learned a lot more in his class.

I'd really suggest steering clear of Professor Xhumari for MATH152. In comparison to what I learned in MATH151, I basically learned nothing from Xhumari's calc 2 class. He essentially works against you via his unorthodox grading system, and he did not provide actual resources to help you prepare for his tests, which he referred to as "challenges."
