Reviews of professor Tatsunari Watanabe

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
He doesn't waste time trying to be everyone's friend - he is super friendly, and will be your friend - but gets right to the math during class!

You can tell he cares about students and our understanding. He gets excited when we interact, and helps everyone with questions. Hosts optional study classes before exams - SUPER helpful.

Beast at soccer.

Dr. Watanabe is one of my favorite professors I've ever had. He is very good at teaching the material and made it very easy to follow and understand. His test is very easy, especially with how helpful his lectures are. His office hours are also very helpful as he is a very easy person to talk to.

Very solid professor. Teaches the why for math problems, which is overlooked by most instructors. Very positive. Will answer your questions promptly, but still makes you work for the answer. Pre-designs all lecture notes for print out. Doesn't erase white board for a while in case you fall behind.

One of the best professors I have ever had and worked great through hybrid. Great lectures, homework wasn't too bad as long as you started early in the week, if you started later you would get behind. Quizzes 3 tries per problem, exams and final 2 tries per problem. The questions were straight out of the homework with different numbers. Taught well

His worksheets are helpful. Practice exams are similar to exams. Dr. Watanabe is caring and wants you to do well. He is also very helpful in office hours.

Tats is my favorite professor I've ever had at this university. His course was structured very well and his lectures were clear and easy to follow. I would fly through college without any struggle if he taught every course I take.

Watanabe is new to Riddle but is a solid choice for any Calculus course. He assigns a light amount of WebAssign homework each week that directly reflects what we learn in lectures and what's on tests. He grades tests very leniently with lots of partial credit and is super helpful in his office hours. All his lectures and notes get posted on Canvas.

One of the best professors out there for calculus. His classes aren't as difficult as some others as he is relatively lenient when it comes to grading. If your looking to learn the material he is great. If you want more extreme problem practice built into the course you may want to choose another professor.
