Wow, one of the best professors I've had.

No, he doesn't have an accent (at least one that will prevent you from understanding anything) and he doesn't talk to the board.

He provides notes for his lectures so that you can go home and review parts you didn't really follow in class because there will be moments where you don't pay attention for a second in a proof and then become lost in the rest of the proof.

His midterm was extremely fair: provided a comprehensive practice midterm that accurately reflected the pool from which questions were chosen from; didn't expect complicated proofs - just wanted to see if you know what you're doing.

He's always available (I even walked into his office at random times to find his door open)

And he gyms LOL what more could you want?

Professor Kim is a very professional instructor. His lecture is very organized and easy to follow. By using enough examples, the concept he taught are easy to be grasped. He replies the emails on time and gives a lot of hint on his homework. Most importantly, he provides practice exam and study guide for midterm and finals which are extremely helpful. As a student in UCLA, I do feel flattered to have a math professor who provides study guide and a whole lecture for review without any students ask for it! Overall, he is a good professor and I would not mind to choose him again if possible.
