The professor made this class an amazing experience. His exams were never out to get you since as long as you understood the material pretty well you would get an A on the exams. Professor Suzuki is amazing and I encourage everyone to get him for Math 32A and any other math courses he teaches.
Take 32A with Suzuki! He's super nice, helpful, and accommodating. There is a homework set and a 2 problem quiz each week. Workload can be a bit heavy and topics definitely get more difficult after the first midterm, so make sure you do not fall behind. Lectures are pretty clear, but the textbook was helpful for looking at example problems. Exams are fair and often easier than the homework problems. He is also really quick to respond to questions over email or Campuswire, which is awesome.
I love Suzuki. He does his best to accommodate students and he drops 2 lowest quizzes and 2 lowest hw scores. The exams are really easy; the more conceptual questions are exactly like his quizzes and the other problems are exactly like the homework. He also structures the grading rubric in a way that makes it easy to get a high score as long as you know the materials: I barely lost any points for a problem where I made computation mistakes but clearly knew how to solve it (there were multiple parts to that problem and I made a mistake at the first part, which normally would've tanked my grade). He also clarified his exams and quizzes, sometimes went so far as to literally tell you how to do it.
He's also extremely responsive on Campuswire and holds regular OHs. Get him if you can.
Suzuki's lectures can be confusing sometimes so I had to read the textbook for clarity. The exams are pretty easy, some of the questions are exactly like his lecture examples. Overall I liked the class and it was easy to get help in office hours. Grading is Homework 10%, Quizzes 20%, Midterm 1 20%, Midterm 2 20%, Final 30%. Quizzes are every week and super easy.
I was nervous coming into Math 32A after really struggling in 31B, but this class was way easier than I thought it was going to be. His midterms are very fair and are reflective of the homework problems and things he goes over in class; I think I got almost a 100% on both of them and again, I've struggled in math in the past. He tells you what type of questions will be on the exam, what the theoretical questions will be based on, etc, which makes studying a lot easier. Homework is reasonable, and he recommends extra practice problems which are really helpful for studying. The grading of the quizzes was a little weird - in total, quizzes are 20% of the grade, but they're 2 questions each, and only worth 4 points total, so it's really easy to make a small mistake and tank your grade. He does drop the two lowest scores at the end of the quarter, which helps a lot. Overall, I would definitely recommend this class to anyone - it was not too stressful, pretty easy, and I feel like I learned a lot. The professor is also a really nice guy and is always very receptive to feedback and is eager to help students who need extra support.
He was a very understanding professor. The tests would have been quite difficult based on time if the class was in person but they were 24 hours so that was helpful. Lectures were generally clear; sometimes he spoke too fast but not often.
Professor Suzuki is awesome. The tests are manageable and he helped me clarify the unclear concepts. He also gave me partial credit even though my answer is wrong. I love to take this class. Really recommended to everyone to take math series with him.
Professor Suzuki is extremely kind and caring. His exams are very fair and he does a great job at explaining concepts, and he also takes his time to answer each individual question so the student gains a better understanding of the material. I highly recommend taking Math 32A with Professor Suzuki
