Two words: Deceivingly nice!

Fairly decent curve, goes through lots of examples, you'll learn a lot but the hw is just ridiculous, the tests are ridiculous, but its better than Abidi.

He is very knowledge and very effective. At the same time, in order to grasp the concept, you are required to listen and not to fall asleep. His exam is very difficult if you don't understand EE. The average midterm is 25, I believe. The final is so hard that you may forget everything you learn.

Think Santa Claus if he decided to be an EE professor and never changed clothes. No I'm serious. This guy never changed clothes ONCE! I was making a sketch of him in class one day, and I was unable to finish it because class got out. But you know what? There was no problem! Because he wore the exact same clothes the next day! And the day after that! Oh yeah, and as for teaching, he knows his stuff, but his soft, grandfatherly tone is bound to put you to sleep. Sometimes when he lectures, I feel as if I'm listening to some old timer talking about the good ole' days. "Back in my day...." Regardless, Willson is as old as EE itself, and there's a lot about the field he can teach you, so you better listen carefully (well assuming you can stay awake).
