Reviews of professor Matthew Schrecker

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
Prof. Schrecker is probably the most competent math professor I have had at UW. His lectures are fast-paced but he clearly explains concepts and will stop to answer questions. He is also extremely accessible in office hours and always happy to explain concepts you may not have understood in lecture. Very tough class but great teacher.

Professor Schrecker's lecture is boring. He writes note soooo fast that you can not catch up with him. After lecture, you probably learn nothing but your hand is sour. Homework due every week but it only has 5-6 questions. It is not that hard but you need to spend hours on it.

Math 421 is not easy, but his style is clear and straight forward. The weekly HW is harder than exam, and the exam is comparably fine for me. He will reply email pretty fast, very good professor, lectures are pretty clear. He is the only Prof I recommend even when it turns to online due to COVID, pretty good prof.

Gave clear and easy-to-understand lectures. Addressed students' questions clearly. Very approachable during office hours.

He made everything super clear and did explain the ideas behind the proofs. He is also extremely nice to students. Although he has a fast speed in order to cover all the materials, you cannot expect a better math teacher. Feel very lucky to take analysis course with him.
