Comment:

He knows what he's talking about and he writes on the chalkboard, which is a different approach, however his lab exam is impossible since the labs in class aren't marked so you have no benchmark to see how you're doing. He's very intimdating and not very helpful, if you can avoid him - you should. He has no sympathy for students.

Comment:

WHAT IS THIS GUY'S DEAL? Does he have a pulse? Not only is he awkward, but frightening. NOT approachable. BORING, DRY & USELESS. Reads off overheads...doesn't engage the class...NEVER refers to the textbook which was $120, MIND YOU! This class ticked me off, and so did he. HE SUCKS! Wake up, University of Windsor!

Comment:

HORRIBLE. His notes are not online, so you HAVE to go to class. All he does is read the notes off of the slide in the most monotonous, boring voice with a weird accent. I would have skipped ALL the time if the notes were online. He is not friendly, and seems as though he hates his job. Not personable, not approachable, and NOT a good professor.

Comment:

I must agree on everyone, he is a VERY rude teacher. He YELLED at me in front of the WHOLE class during my mid-term because I asked him if we were allowed to use pencil, instead of pen. He doesn't have to be so rude because WE PAY FOR HIM TO TEACH. HE SHOULD SHOW US SOME RESPECT! He counts spelling and even if you get the word right, u get a BIG 0!

This guy made me laugh. He has interesting looks to say the least, his teaching style is terrible since there is absolutely no structure, but his midterm and exam were definitely easy!

The man is a chilean ballroom dancer who thinks he knows stuff about the ocean. I don't know why the university employs him; he can't teach and his research is crap.

First off he looks like a monkey, secondly he can't teach. If you don't know anything about chemistry don't even bother with this class. Its boring and useless.

Comment:

I really enjoyed his teaching style. He wrote everything clearly on the board. There were no surprises on tests, they were hard but fair. While some people say that he comes off as unapproachable, I found him very easy to talk to. He has a very sacrasetic sence of humour which added to the class

He talks down to students and laughs at their wrong answers. Other than that however, he is fair in his grading.

Comment:

Although he seems aloof and isn't very nice sometimes, his notes are clear and helpfull, and his tests and easy and fair. Some people say the tests are hard but it seemed like common sense to me if you went to class. Oh, and he looks like a turtle, & his sense of humour is very quaint.

Comment:

Rodreigues was absolutely awesome for oceanography. You don't need the book, just remember where "EIRE" HALL is and you'll get used to hearing "oseeanography". He likes to spell words wrong too ie: "earthquack" and "Pa
