Although in lecture he can sometimes be a bit hard to follow, his lecture notes were golden. He uses a lot of examples in his lecture notes that are similiar in difficulty as the questions on the midterm/exam + assignments. He's really organized and also approachable after lecture/during office hours if you have any questions. I don't think you'll have a problem with him.
