Reviews of professor Ben Bellis

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Ben Bellis made this otherwise drab class that all CS and IOE majors want to get out of the way into my favorite class this semester. Who knew orthogonal projections and singular value decompositions could be so much fun? After taking this class with Ben, you'll feel so nostalgic you'll start reducing matrices to RREF in your spare time. Ben  Best

Lectures are unorganized and material is not explained clearly at all... Homework is unreasonably difficult - everyone ends up abusing Slader instead of actually solving problems and learning in the process. Exams are ridiculous as well - average score is around 50-60. Also, no transparency in grading. The curve was never even explained to us.

Ben Bellis is the best professor at the University of Michigan. Ben obviously knows the material, but he will also help you understand it as well. He is willing to discuss Linear Algebra before AND after class AND during office hours. Yes, the exams are difficult, but you'll do WAY better if Ben is your instructor.
