Reviews of professor Dimitri Volchenkov

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
I tried so hard to understand the information in this class. I thought my grade was on web work showing an 89%. However when the final grading was posted he gave me a C saying that webwork did not show our grade. He never posted my actual grades on Blackboard and when I asked him about my grade he was very rude about it and acted like I was stupid.

his version of teaching is reading a powerpoint version of the textbook in class. homeworks were never graded and given back so we had no idea if we were doing things correctly. first exam average was below a 40. second exam was so bad he had to let us do corrections and by the third exam over 50% of the class had dropped. TERRIBLE DO NOT TAKE

I mean, he cares about what he's teaching, and as long as you stick it out, he won't let you fail. But don't expect top quality instruction.

All hw and exams on webwork. Exams open note and questions are similar to the hw questions so as long as your write down how you got the answers on the hw, you'll be fine. You can use chegg to teach yourself most of the class.
Gives 15% extra credit as listed on the syllabus. 
Webwork is annoying but prof is a nice guy and willing to work with you.

I took him for Math 3354, not 3350. He's... okay. How he grades tests and homeworks makes this class an easy A with some practice. He gave out a 7% boost on our average if you completed all the training sets, which was HUGE. His lectures aren't very helpful though, but he will help you with homework. Wouldn't reccomend for super high level classes.

His lectures were screenshots of pages from the textbook, with few examples. We had attendance quizzes that were not supposed to be every class until most people failed the first exam. The grading curve was confusing, and the class will not prepare you for Advanced Calc II.

He reads off a PowerPoint with "excerpts" from the text book. The lectures are basically meaningless. It is a pretty frustrating experience taking his class, as you are always struggling to understand what he is even talking about, and retain nothing from the course. However, his classes are fairly easy to receive A's in, as long as you work ~hard.

This class is very difficult. I would recommend trying to get another professor, but Volchenkov is ok. He can be hard to understand at times and tends to blow through his lectures very quickly.

Dr.Dimitri is the worst professors I've taken ever. His lectures consist of him point a ruller at a power point and explaining poorly what is happening (i.e. no working out examples). All homework and tests are given threw Webworks, an awful website that if you are incorrect there is no explanation, cheg is the only resource that will help. Sad
