Reviews of professor Eric Knyt

Rating: 3.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Class is difficult if you don't pay attention and take advantage of office hours. A lot of extra credit is offered which makes getting a bad grade in the class difficult unless you don't put any effort in. Overall this class was very difficult but useful in learning excel functions and is not so bad because of the extra credit offered.

I would not recommend taking Calc 1 with Knyt. He spends the entire time in class sitting behind his desk and moving his mouse around the powerpoint slide. He rarely does sample problems or draws on the bored and in general does not seem interested in what he is teaching.

Truly cares about his students and will do everything in his power to make sure you get a fair shot at an A. Class is largely based on 3 exams, but practice exams are provided and he is very available for extra help outside of class. Lectures are dense and can get confusing but he does difficult problems out which breaks them up and makes them fun

Eric Knyt definitely cares about his students but is not a great professor in terms of teaching a classroom environment. As a freshman coming into college and having to take Calculus 1 as a requirement for my track, I would have preferred a different teacher. Most math professors fall short in the aspect of being able to actually teach their course

If you are not an engineering major, this class will be too hard for you. Be ready to put in a 100% in this class by doing past years practice exams, going to office hours & a ton of self studying. Eric is a nice person, you just have to attend class and ask if unsure. There is no time to be afraid in Math 131. Don't know? Ask!

Professor Knyt is always prepared for lectures and uses graphics and examples to make the concepts easier to understand. Come to class having already read the textbook chapter and make use of your TAs, and you'll do fine.

I rly liked Prof Knyt. I took AP Calc AB in HS, so it was an easier class for me since it was not new material. He rly cares & wants you to do well. Generous office hours. Lectures are what you put into them-- if you don't pay attention or ever read the textbook, you'll be lost. Participation will help. Use his office hrs! Exams v similar to HW

This guy goes on random tangents all class, he barely talks about material and without sounding rude he is a joke of a professor, I had multiple high school math teachers better than him and I want to high school for free. Paying so much money to go here for an education and professors like this are just unacceptable the university has to do better
