Professor Ozel is a great professor- very nice, helpful and gives pretty fair exams. The class itself isn't terribly difficult and is a mix between some history, and mostly the origins of math and proofs for elementary theorems and processes (like the quadratic formula). He would give optional homework, and his tests were fair/representative of homework questions. He's helpful in office hours and cares about his students. Definitely recommend him for 106 and any other math class

Professor Ozel is very helpful and willing to work with students, which was appreciated considering classes were moved online during the last weeks of the quarter. Exams are fair (midterm and final), with reading assignments for discussion sections but no graded homework. I'd recommend Ozel for any class in the math dept.
