Reviews of professor Alexander Petroff

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Had a great time. Petroff teaches very well and inspires learning. He's strict with deadlines but will always lend a hand. Homeworks do get very difficult.

Absolutely outstanding professor, and one of the most interesting people I have ever met. He can make anything seem interesting, I would highly recommend anyone to take a class with him. He has a very nice balance between deriving equations and talking about theory, and applications and concrete examples.

Alex is awesome! He gives out fair test and ample time to finish. The only minor complaint would be that the weekly problem set + lab report can be tiring, but that's required for STEM anyway. And he sometimes dwells too much into derivation of the formulas w/o giving many examples. But his lectures are clear and understandable otherwise.
