Reviews of professor Beren Sanders

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
He is one of the smartest people you will ever know. His class is very inspirational. And he is a very nice person. Easy midterm but hard final( he put 50% on final ). And his handwriting is a little bit messy. Need some work to get a good grade.

He is a genius! Have a very good teaching style and class structure. But notice he doesn't use any book, only his note for the class. Average 8-10 HW problems per week. If you put work in you will have a good grade. His exam questions are mostly based on the note. Personally, I find his classes are full of passion and very inspiring.

The course was not overly difficult and if you put in the work and showed up to the lectures the tests were not too hard at all. The curve was also generous. Plus he seems to really enjoy the subject.

Beren is fine. I am happy with my final grade of a B-. I feel that he has accurately scaled/curved to the difficulty of the class. If you want to get the most of the class I would highly recommend office hours and MSI tutoring. I feel that I could have gotten an A if I took more advantage of these things.

If you haven't taken calc AB before you might struggle with concepts as the class is very fast-paced. Beren taught me math better than any other teacher; his teaching style is superb. He uploads all lecture slides and the midterms and final are exactly like the examples he goes over in the slides. ASK QUESTIONS! He really wants you to understand

He is an amazing professor he really wants you to understand the material and is willing to help you if you go to his office hours. The class is not easy but if you put in the work you will definitely pass. People who did not pass or are complaining to him probably did not go to class and expect to pass but this is not high school level calculus.

Go to all the lectures, ask questions when youre confused, visit his office hours, do the hw, youll be fine. Final is 50 percent of grade and was pretty hard so try to get your grade up before. Also I had already taken calc so that helped. Loves to talk about the conceptual side of everything

Overall good prof. He may not lecture to every1s liking but he seems passionate about math. Attendance not mandatory, HW graded on completion, no expensive text. He curves so don't stress but if you want a good grade you have to give it your all. I think he cares about the students which is more than a lot of other profs. Go to class& ask q's!

Sanders was a great professor. Sometimes he did go kind of fast during lectures, but if you asked him questions, he would take his time to make sure you understood all the important concepts.
