Reviews of professor David Mante

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
He is a somewhat nice guy but a stickler for rules and protocol. His teaching style is VERY specific to one kind of student and if you don't learn well from just lecture, don't take this course. He accepts no extra credit and if you are a minute late it is not accepted. His homework takes about 12 hours a week. Have fun lol.

David Mante likes to say that he's done research that proves that his teaching style is the best way to teach, but in application, it only works for a certain type of student. It doesn't work for students who learn differently from the "traditional" student. He is the type of professor that works so well for some students and not at all for others

Overall he is a solid professor. Sometimes he places large amounts of emphasis on things that do not seem as important as he makes them out to be, such as neatness on homework, but he explains things fairly well and his tests are fair for the most part. I did not do great in his class, and his teaching style is kind of rigid, but he teaches well.

Prof. Mante is kinda the worst. He teaches one style and one style only and does not care if you do not get it. I would NEVER take his class again. He is a rule dictator and does not represent what engineering in the real world is like. He is unforgiving. I am serious when I say, avoid at all costs. This man needs to find a new profession.

Possibly one of the worst professors I've ever had at this school, unfortunately. Assigns a lot of homework and requires a ridiculously specific manner of completing it, or he zeroes your grade for the assignment. Feels like he makes you jump through hoops for no real reason. Avoid at all if possible.

Lecture heavy, but lectures included information valuable to our final assignment. Incorporated elements/examples into lectures that made the class not boring and information easy to understand.
