This is for "Flavour" 100C. I felt the design of this class was very bad, maybe because it was the first iteration of this course (before it was MATH104). The whole benchmark grading system was very confusing, as well as homework that was somehow in groups. Meaning that basically, one person who knew how to do it did everything. I wished that the assignments that were given out were simply individual. Another thing that was problematic was the spacing of the lectures and the "small classes". It was difficult to go through 2 hours of calculus lectures once per week, and it made the content very hard to retain. The small class was not bad though.

Content-wise - if you have never taken calculus before in high school, it would be very tough. In addition to normal differentiation, we also covered partial derivatives and 3D optimization (using partial derivatives). The part about Lagrange optimization was very very confusing, and I do not understand teaching that to first-year students without knowledge of Linear Algebra yet. Also very big problem - THERE IS NO ONE TEXTBOOK. The content spanned sections of THREE DIFFERENT TEXTBOOKS. It, therefore, feels very weirdly structured and jumps around a lot. Also, the exercises in the textbook were not representative of the final at all.

Lior is smart but he teaches too fast (maybe because of the structure of the content). He never does the arithmetic and laughs weirdly a lot. He will definitely answer your questions though, so ask away.

Do more questions I guess
