Reviews of professor Daniel Polyak

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 1.0/5
He's such a sweetheart. Although he's not that accessible outside of class, his work is very easy. Do the work and you will pass!

He is so understanding of any situation that you have. The class is an easy A if you read the articles before class. Sometimes I would forget to read the articles but that didnt make a difference. He is very lenient & even told the class that you dont need perfect writing to succeed in the class. Take this class because it is eye-opening!

Professor Polyak is great, very understanding and smart. The class is eye opening and the readings interesting. If you show up, participate and do your assignments, you'll definitely get an A.

Professor Daniel Polyak is AMAZING. I would take again if I could. Overall, class was an easy A. We had weekly quizzes but it would only be on content we discussed so if you pay attention you'll be fine. Weekly readings but if you're smart about it you can work your way around out it. Attendance matters. Graded on quizzes, 2-3 papers, and a final.

Professor Polyak is very understanding with due dates, make sure not to abuse it though! Gives weekly discussion boards and quizzes. His class is filled with a lot of work but the answers are literally in his lectures! I would take it again, a pretty interesting class.

Professor Polyak deeply cares for his students. His lectures are inspirational and he makes sure that each student feels heard. Additionally, he offers extra credits for tests. However, he does not give an A+ even when you get more than 100%.

Exceptional professor. He makes his class quite enjoyable and informative. If you do all assigned work on time and weekly quizzes properly (with your focus) then you will be fine. Pay attention to his lectures. They are a very useful instrument against concept quizzes.

He is very knowledgeable in the subject but the class is very disorganized. He doesn't answer to emails and his lectures are very inconsistent. There is a lot of reading but overall it is an easy class and there isn't much to it. I would recommend if you need to full a requirement!

Be prepared to read, it's very dense material but truly enjoyable. The discussions based on the readings make it 100x times better. If you truly enjoy the content, you should have no issue with his class. He's a very understanding professor and genuinely values his students opinion.

Professor Daniel is very great. The only issue is he is not easily accessible outside the classroom or through emails. The readings he assigns are interesting. His lectures and instructions are very clear to understand.
