Reviews of professor Kiran Mainali

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Mainali focuses too much on the easy material and not enough on the harder material. I think his tests do not measure the extent of what his students know. For example, we had a test over 9 units with only 10 questions, a little ridiculous. He has a very thick accent and it is hard to understand in class.

Professor Mainali is an amazing professor. His lectures are easy to follow along and he will stop to answer any question students have. There are two homework assignments a week but it really isn't all that bad. The homework can get hard, and his lectures do focus on the easy stuff, but if you understand the concepts and prepare, the tests are easy

Kiran is a cool guy and his lectures are easy to understand. I wish he spent less time on easy stuff (adding, multiplying etc) and more time on the hard stuff (mortgages, truth tables). The class isn't difficult and attendance isn't necessary. Make sure to keep up on MyLab because he won't reopen anything.

Honestly his only job is to teach the material and he is good at it. I learn math better on my own so I found going to class unnecessary. However, If I couldn't teach myself then I went and listened. If you do the homework and use the study plans before the tests, you should pass them easily. Working ahead will save you a lot of stress!

I found him amazing!

He made the material easy to understand. However, I will say that this class comes with a lot of homework and the tests are short, there's like 20 questions. I do like that he allowed us to retake an exam that we did poorly on.

Makes lessons super simple then homework very hard. Makes you double think yourself when he over complicates basic things (multiplication, subtraction, etc.) Very short tests and very unforgiving with work that does not match what he expects. Unclear sometimes and is unapologetic for it.

Out of all of the calc professors, he is the best and explains everything so well. This is my 2nd time taking this course and I AM 100 PERCENT POSITIVE that if I had him my firs time I would have gotten an A. He is simply amazing
