Winter 2020 - I am currently taking his class. Professor Pamarti is a very impressive person. He is a great lecturer. He both circuit-theoretically and mathematically compensates students' lack of concept. I personally found very flawless. He is opened to students and clearly answers to questions of students as if he knew what we were going to ask. So students in lecture (probably) thoroughly learn about concept. No mystery left after lectures. He is also responsible. He answers to the most of questions showing up in Piazza at very late night. I wonder how he keeps himself so sharp with the lack of sleep. He respects the students. He somehow makes the students feel better who stand out to ask a question they might think themselves it is a stupid question. He likewise encourages students to communicate with him. Time by time, he also boosts up students attention as he comes up with interesting real applications. I didn't know that this old theory can be such useful and still fundamentally used in modern age. They are so fascinating. Then I am many times motivated to study this. So if your characteristic is similar to mine, you would often feel glad you learn from him. The midterm however was personally difficult to score good. For circuit theory, I recently felt it may be students' task to retain what we got from the lectures and study to apply concepts to solve various problems. (I later realized haha) I might not be satisfied my grade this quarter. I wouldn't feel so bad because I know I bring a myriad of things from this course and I found this subject very interesting by this. Now I like circuit theory, which I used to feel boring. I am enjoying working on the homework problem sets. Above all, I can say it is very worth to take Professor Pamarti's course if you are at ucla.
