Reviews of professor Avery Wilson

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Great professor for a summer class, really made sure that everyone understood the material and took time to help during class. Shortened some of the homework and was willing to give people some more time as needed to complete it. Very accessible and willing to work with you so that you understood the concepts clearly. Exams were similar to lecture.

He is the most average professor I've ever had. Nothing amazing or bad about him. You can tell he is trying hard, but he just does not have enough experience explaining the course material. (He also had ants crawling over his desk during his Zoom lectures and didn't seem to mind them, so that was entertaining.)

very neutral dude! hes friendly, but not the best professor. he would sometimes make really simply concepts seem much harder than they were, so defff supplement his lectures by going to math plus. but overall, he just wants to support you and help out where he can, so id recommend him (esp if you have a precal background)

Wilson was very harsh with his grading and did not teach the material well. You have to work on your own outside of class to get a decent grade.

Wouldn't recommend this class or prof if you don't absolutely need it. Questions couldn't be answered, I was perpetually confused and exams were a hot mess. Def check out the tutoring/ Math Plus. Office hours don't help.

Only one assignment each week and takes about 1 hour. All midterms and final are take-home, and you can ask him about the tests in office hours. Replies to emails quickly. A good choice for summer sessions.

I really enjoyed having Professor Wilson for Math 130. He is extremely approachable, and often pauses lecture to encourage students to ask questions and clear up confusion. As long as you pay attention in class and put in the work outside of class, I couldn't see how anyone would leave this professor a less than stellar review!

You have to teach yourself a lot outside of class

A lecturer with impeccable clarity and infinite capacity to be likeable, Avery is the kind of educator that should not be in short supply.

Wasnt very strict on homework but tests were graded heavy. Very difficult to follow during lectures.

He was a nice guy but he did not really teach the course material well. Lectures were not mandatory and I went to them at first, but it just felt like a waste of my time. We spent half of class just sitting silently in break-out rooms, and I could barely tell what was going on when he was teaching. I ended up teaching myself with the lesson videos.
