Reviews of professor Jeffrey Pair

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Although the class is very lecture heavy, the class structure itself is enjoyable. Doing group work to start off the class and coming back for a class discussion helps to better understand the class material. The professor is very kind and provides lots of valuable feedback. He is very knowledgeable and will help you understand the course material.

It's not impossible to get an A, there is no real homework besides discussion post. For exams, he gives you several days to submit but I suggest you frequently go to his office hours for feedback before you submit because he is a tuff grader. You get easy points from classwork which is all group work.

Do NOT take this professor if you don't like group participation and or if you are shy and don't like to participate. He doesn't teach at all!!! He just makes his students do all the work in break out rooms and comes in and criticizes it all and doesn't tell us what he want then makes us present our work at the end. Do NOT recommend.

Professor Pair is great! He has you work on problems in a group and then come back together as a class to discuss. The group work is really helpful but you have to participate. He'll stay after class if you have questions and will explain things in different ways until you understand. He genuinely cares and wants his students to be successful.

Great professor who makes proof writing fun. Homework is graded on correctness with detailed feedback, so make sure to diligently complete it. Tests are based off the homework but require you to READ the question and understand the content well. You do one easy project in which you research and discuss an unsolved conjecture.

He was so bad, I wanted to give him a zero. But thats not possible. So, I give him a 1.

His class consist of student group work with a guided worksheet - basically we had to teach ourselves the material. He did not lecture. In my opinion, its not the best pedagogy for high level math course. I wish he actually lectured then placed us in group work. Took this class during covid and he still didnt lecture. Avoid him at all cost!!!!!

He is a great professor, a bit of advice: attend his classes because he likes to give quizzes, just review the material and you'll live. He is also one who will give feedback on assignments, because he would like his students to improve. He also grants you the opportunity to submit revisions of assignments (even exams) and gives a few points back.

Dr. Pair is one of the most caring professors I've ever met. At the beginning of class, if there are any questions about the homework or the material, he will show you how it's done. He will teach you step-by-step with so much patience. Please participate, it helps so much and please read his feedback on your homework. He is SO worth it!
