Winter 2022 - It's very hard to teach a abstract class. it would be hard for those who demaning intuition. but overall, she manage to explain the text well and she cares for her students a lot. the work load is relativce small comparing to other classes which is a point can be improved

Fall 2025 - This is definitely one of the most difficult math classes I have ever taken (roughly comparable to 131A from my perspective). There is a weekly quiz and optional homework. The proofs are often long and quite different from those in analysis and algebra, which makes the course demanding. However, Prof Robichaux made the class engaging and approachable. She is always kind, helpful, and happy to answer any questions—no matter how unconventional—that I posted on Piazza. She even provided snacks during the final, which was especially helpful for me since I had two consecutive exams that day. The lecture notes were consistently provided, though they could be a bit messy. Overall, I would definitely take her class again if I had the chance.
