The semester is still coming to a close, and I need to reflect on my experiences in Calculus.
Starting off with who taught the course, when and where it was held, and my expected workload, I was taught by the awesome, "I am very silly", Dr. Smith. It happened in room 222 in GH at 9:25 every Tuesday and Thursday. There was no lab, but a LOT of homework.
The Teach
Dr. Smith is, from what I hear, one of the best teachers at AUM. He may not be able to convey every thought of his into your mind, but he can make up for it by how real he is. On every quiz/test he gives partial credit for anything possible. He scales the point of each question so that hard questions don't hurt the grade as bad. He explains exactly what is going on in the class, grade-wise, so that you have an understanding of where you can place yourself. Dr. Smith is a very light-hearted individual with a neatly combed beard and a finely rounded bald spot. Jolly St. Furman he should be called.
At the start of the class, I believed that it would be a breeze, and of coarse, I made an error. The class was a lot of work in the beginning, due to the large amount of abstract thinking it took to understand the theories behind Calculus. Outside the box didn't even cut it for this class. I underestimated the homework, and I never did it. It didn't have to be turned it, so I didn't have to do it. Once I started looking at the homework, I started doing much better on the quizzes. I was like, DO IT. I forced myself to look at the homework, and it paid off. I have the highest average in the class, and its an A.
Gold Team Rules.
