Ramsey is a great professor who is engaging and accommodating. He answers any questions thrown his way, whether it be through email or in lecture. I really enjoyed his lectures as well; he goes into depth about topics to help solidify topics and concepts, and his drawings are quirky and entertaining. While the workload this quarter was a little more than normal with weekly quizzes, the quizzes themselves were not difficult and the exams were made easier with less proof and more application!

Prof Ramsey is a really cool guy! I would describe him as kind of a funny, awkward guy, but in an endearing way, who cares about his students learning and lectures well. Not sure if it was just burnout on my end, but it seemed like the earlier topics (induction, combinatorics, basic set theory) were better structured and more engaging than the last topic(s) (graph theory). Overall, it's a great class to take as an introduction to discrete math.

When I signed up for Professor Ramsey's class, it was a risk, as he was a new instructor, but I'm so glad I did. Professor Ramsey had little issue in his first quarter at UCLA; he was very clear during lectures, offered great help during office hours, and was very committed to everyone's learning. He enjoyed expanding on topics and his optional lecture on Ramsey Theory was just a representation of his willingness to share his love for math. Professor Ramsey is just a funny person in general, who isn't afraid to laugh about his shortcomings and take student suggestions for names of examples (Shrek!), and I highly suggest taking his class.
