Just finished taking Real Analysis - Math 3150 with Prof. McLellan (or Brendan... he insists on a first name basis). This is the hardest math course I have taken is probably the most difficult of the math courses. Brendan made extra meeting times and helped so much with the homework. He is super nice and also curved so that I got an A!MATH3150 2016-05-07 16:55:06 +0000 UTC
He's a pretty decent professor all in all, and is very clear during lectures. the only problem is is grading at the end of the semester. he does not curve at all, and he follows his syllabus grading criteria very strictly.2341 2015-09-06 09:48:30 +0000 UTC
Very clear and understandable lectures. The prof is enthusiastic, although sometimes goes into too much detail. Among the best teachers I have had. Always took time to explain answers to questions and got me talking in class.MATH1341 2014-01-14 14:21:05 +0000 UTC
Best Prof! Probably the best math teacher i had. Knows his stuff in depth and always found a way to make calculus interesting so I feel like I understand it. Highly recommended!MATH1341 2014-01-13 15:20:49 +0000 UTC
