Reviews of professor Colin Ingalls

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Clearly wants students to do well, asks the class for their feedback and opinion (eg: asked us if we wanted to have assignments). Super reasonable - Tutorials require they be decently attempted, provided us with practice tests, and test questions are straightforward. They all come from the practice sheets or are from class. Great prof.

Not a fan of how he interprets the concept on the board in class. Introduces different concepts at random times without much warning. He could write out a theorem and then suddenly give an example in between. He explains it clearer though. Assignments aren't that bad but it takes almost 2-3 weeks to get feedback after deadline. Very disorganized.

1. Was disorganized and lacked clarity. 2. Not helpful when approached with questions. 3. Declined giving a passing grade for the course (which I more than had), after I had multiple seizures the day before the final exam which resulted in me being hospitalized for two weeks (he was made aware of all of this).

Cons:
Lectures were disorganized and hard to follow, especially when teaching from home. Assignment feedback was slow, 1+ months. There were lots of mistakes in examples and he skips steps, which was confusing. Not tech savvy; frequent sound/camera issues. I relied heavily on Youtube/textbook. 
Pros:
Assessments were reasonable. He seemed nice.

The class went from 150 students on the first day to 50 students (approximately) by the end of the semester. He's really bad at teaching the material. Most of his teaching is theory. The only reason I did well in this class is because I watched youtube and read the textbook. The only good thing I have to say is the assessments had no surprises.

Such a genuine professor who can explain complex concepts in an easy to understand way. Weekly assignments are extremely well designed, and the midterm and exam were also very reasonable. Recorded the lectures and had a Zoom option for all classes. Those who dislike this professor are those who are not willing to put in the work needed to succeed.

He can be quite disorganized and unstructured when it comes to his lectures and proofs. It was hard for me to intuitively digest what he was saying. Although, it is impressive how he's able to take raw intuition about the subject and run with it, he definitely seems to know his stuff well. Really nice guy and quite a light marker as well.

So funny. Makes great jokes and is really relatable.

The material he teaches is simple, but he makes it difficult to understand. His notes are disorganized and all over the place, and his constant back-and-forth between concepts makes it even more confusing. When someone asks a question, he makes it more confusing somehow. Learning the materials on Khan academy is a better use of your time.
