Tufts University: Tawanda Gwena - Mathematics - Professor ratings, reviews and much more | JumboAccess
Tawanda Gwena | MATH011 - Calculus I| Mathematics2006-05-10

Review:
DO NOT TAKE A CLASS WITH TAWANDA GWENA! He is nice enough, but a terrible, horrendous, horrific (get the picture?) teacher. He is terrible at explaining, and if you dont understand something, he cannot explain it in another way. He fails to make simple connections between topics that would make things more clear. In addition, he constantly makes fundamental mistakes when teaching, and if no one corrects him, you will just know the material wrong for the test. On top of that, he is terribly unreliable and says that if we have questions, we should contact him by e-mail, but he has never once returned an e-mail. I did decently in the class solely based upon my high school calculus and by talking to my roommate who had a different teacher. I don't know what Tufts was thinking when they hired this man.

Workload:
Amount of homework is standard for all Calc I classes (and it's not much work), so find yourself a better teacher.
