Blaize was a really good teacher. He made me change my major to economics, and I found my passion in his class.
Professor Giangiulio was fantastic and I wouldn’t change a thing! He’s been incredibly thoughtful and accommodating of all. … He teaches really well and one is able to understand everything. … 10/10!
Professor Giangiulio is a great professor who cares about the students who care about the teachings; come to office hours and you will succeed. He’s good at both large lectures and small discussions. A great prof!
He is one of the best professors I have. … He is extremely intelligent and seems to have a strong love for the subject which makes the lectures more exciting. … He wants us to succeed and is very good at it.
Great Instructor! Would definitely take again.

Honestly, one of the best econ professors I have ever had.
Great professor, this was a really scary class for me and I was so nervous to take it but he helped me really understand the material. One of my best professors this quarter, which is honorable considering he’s new to teaching.
I really enjoyed having him as a professor — he made microeconomics fun!
Prof Giangiulio is great! He does a good job explaining concepts, using both slides and the white board. He also will touch on how more advanced math could be used in the future on simpler concepts we are currently learning which I like.
He was a very great teacher and provided plenty of opportunities during office hours. Teaches and grades fairly, very good at explaining things.

Best professor I have had so far after 3 years here.
Quality instruction and course design. Actually learned instead of just trying to get a good grade.
Instructor provided clear and instructive explanations of class material. Material proceeded logically and sensibly from topic to topic, and was easy to understand within topics.
… Overall, very useful class and would take it again with Blaize!!
