Reviews of professor Leandro Recova

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Quite frankly, Professor Recova turned out exactly the way I expected. He's kind, extremely intelligent, and is quite the lenient grader. However, the content he covers and the rate at which he does it can be overwhelming. Really, it's not difficult to pass, but getting a good grade will involve a great deal of effort and writing everything down.

Mr. Recova deserves the 5.0 he has at the time of this. He cares very much about his students and class. The content is hard in itself, and it can be verrrrrrrryyyy overwhelming, but communicating with him is key. Half of the homework assignments he assigned were pushed back by students' requests. Only thing is that attendance is 10% of your grade.

A very kind soft spoken and dedicated professor, however there are a few things I disliked based on his teaching style. Cramming all the work on one side of the board. Not facing the class when he speaks and talking into the board, blocking the information. I passed with an A because the exams were online and I spent hours teaching myself instead.

Prof Recova is a very good teacher in my opinion though fairly new. He always tried to make sure that the students were understanding the material. He is very receptive to feedback and will slow down at any point. The tests aren't so bad as he usually tells you to want kind of problems will be there and also gives extra credit.

Professor Recova is probably one of the best math teachers I have had at Cal Poly. He is very thorough with his lectures and grading outline and the exams are comprehensive of what we learn in class. He is very helpful if you attend his office hours and he is a caring, kind person. Definitely take his class if you have the chance!
