Depends on the lecturer, Ive got Bose for Algebra and I cant remember my calculus dudes name.
For algebra the Bose goes very fast when doing example questions and maybe 80% of the class cant follow cause he takes werid shortcuts when he does a question.
He is good though.
I like my calculus teacher and so i like calculus more, He told us an interesting story about Newton and Leibnick (cant remember his exact name).
Made me think of Newton in a different way
(Like what HSC physics made me think about thomas edison)
I only see pro Commerce students do MATH1151 and I'm an Engineering student not a Commerce student and MATH1151 isn't listed as a prescribed course for me.
Pahor is a very good algebra lecturer I hope he is my new lecturer for next semester in MATH1231.

Bose is so cool, he is just so funny, and you've gotta love his accent. I actually don't think he go's to fast, yeah sure sometimes I don't understand it the first time, but when i got to the tut it all becomes clear. His lectures are always enjoying.
Taggart on the other hand, yeah sure the story was good, but I always seem to fall asleep in his lectures. It not the lecturer, its just that I don't really (but should) appreciate calculus as much as algebra. I'm also finding calculus much harder. (Although that's not to say algebra is easy, because its hard too.)

A second year said our tutor seems to be explaining everything to himself rather than us and it seems we're just listening in.
Plus his handwriting has legibility issues.

If that's true then that's way better than my friend who is now tutoring first year Maths at UTS for about $25 an hour (same pay as tutors in ENGG1811) and he got a credit in Maths last year.
(obviously some of the tutors lecture as well, and so they would earn a lot more).
so far the best lecturers/tutors i have come across are Peter Brown, Milan Pahor, Chris Tisdell and Daniel Chan. these guys are brilliant, so feel lucky if you have them and make the most of it (ie by showing up to class)

I've only come across Pahor as a really good one, my algebra tutor is ok.
But he isn't going to lecture MATH1231, he's going on holidays, damnnn.
But he will return for us engineers for MATH2019 (Engineering Mathematics 2E).
does anyone have the chapter 8 lecture notes by Taggart? I've printed the notes, but I need the writing he did in class.
My calculus lecturer Peter Blennerhasset is the worst lecturer ever......
Milan Pahor is an amazing lecturer. He .. imbues.. a certain rigour in his wording and expression that is reflective of the mathematics itself! Beautiful
LOL someone should post a new 'Milan Pahor' appreciation thread.
But I'm here to post something;
URGENT:
Chapter 4
Can you find the derivative for (x2+1)ln√(x3+1) ?
Well it's not xln(x3+1) + 3x2(x2+1)/2(x3+1)5 as the solution claims, it's supposed to be:
xln(x3+1) + 3x2(x2+1)/2(x3+1), there is no power of 5 anywhere! Even Maple 11 says so.
Also, there simply isn't enough information to solve Question 16 b).
Where is the radius?
Try looking at the solutions at the back, there is none for Question 16!
Chapter 8
In the answer for Question 1 iv) where you find the Riemann sum for x3 it says iv) is not Riemann integrable, it IS Riemann integrable, the answer is:
1/4
The answer is referring to iv) when it should be v), a piecewise defined function which is definitely NOT Riemann integrable.
Also, there simply isn't enough information to solve Question 16 b).
