Student Comments:

Best math professor I have ever had.

I feel that I learned better this quarter than I did last quarter. I am very glad that I took this particular lecture.

Paul was one of the better math teachers I've ever had. He was always available outside of class, even if it wasn't his specific allotted office hours. He really helped me master the material in and out of the classroom. He explained concepts and specific problems really well without talking down to us. He should be offered a teaching position here once he finishes his phD.

The class was well taught. Homework, quizzes, and tests were relevant and helpful to mastering the material of the course. Grading was fair.
