good guy, clearly cares about his students and want them to do well, but does a horrible job explaining the material with useless "virtual experiments" and his exam was very tough

Great teacher that really cares about students. Puts a lot of effort into making sure students understand by using lots of analogies and examples. Funny and engaging. Creates a great atmosphere to learn in

Comment:

He's a nice guy, and he seemed to care about the students, but his accent made it difficult to understand what he was saying sometimes. It got better as time went by, but he still seemed to go through things a little quickly

Comment:

The first half of the course was a gong show (thermodynamics...) but once he got into the materials stuff it got a little more interesting (still fell asleep in class a lot, though). Not the most approachable person (especially due to serial napping). I relied heavily on the textbook. Open book did not go well.

Comment:

Open note exams and uses questions straight from the text book assigned questions that you get to bring to class. He puts no work into his lectures the figures are stolen straight from the text. He gets good marks cus he babies us.

Comment:

This site should consider only more recent ratings in the overall prof-smiley. It seems, from ancient posts, that he used to bore students to tears. These days, however, he deserves all smiles! Perhaps extra smiles for improving so much! The material's tough (especially thermo) but the funny/useful applications and his anectodes are fabulous.

Comment:

Sweet little old man - I just adore this guy. However, the subject is really damned hard (especially for the physics non-inclined), and sometimes it's difficult to figure out what he's trying to say. The open book tests were a life saver, and you really got the idea taht he wanted you to do well. Awesome prof!
