My first experience with Professor Bernstein was amazing. He's incredibly knowledgeable and I can't deny it. But when we switched to distance learning, he made no effort in going online. I didn't learn anything because, he just uploaded PDFs once a week of his notes. Honestly, it was a waste of a course. I hope he doesn't pull that in fall because of COVID. Watch out, he will not do any lecture at all.
