Reviews of professor Brian Kotz

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
I took him for MATH 117, an elementary applied statistics class. He provides PowerPoint resources and high quality homemade videos explaining how to solve the problems. Reality wise I would recommend buying a TI-84 plus ce calculator because thats all you will need to pass the class with an A. He has videos explaining how to use the calculators.

Was willing to explain and walk you through the problems and was forgiving for simple mistakes

The professor appears to have tried to offset a negative review by posting a positive comment on their own rating. This action may raise doubts about the authenticity of the reviews and the professor's response to criticism.

MATH117 has been one of the hardest classes I've ever taken but Prof Kotz, alongside with his assistant, makes studying easy and he provides many resources to take advantage of. I really appreciate his responsiveness and understanding. He is a cheerful and helpful teacher, who truly wants his students to excel.

Very kind and understanding. He was also very helpful and explained well. His notes were also very helpful.

All exams were conducted through Examity. However, if you just do the homework and read through his notes, you will be fine. Exams count for a lot and there are assignments due pretty much every week. He is always accessible outside of class. If you have any questions, he is willing to explain it to you.

Make sure you read the syllabus throughout the duration of the class as this is more important than actually learning the material for the class. When you ask him for help, he delegates you to see his aid. She is no help either. If he is not going to personally help you, why is he even there? He expects you to learn with his outdated Notes (Class)
