Comment:

He was a difficult teacher but definitely knew his subjects. Lecture wasn't reflected in the exams but the text was. I made a B. He should be teaching at a higher level.

Comment:

He goes off on tangents about subjects that won't be on the test. He also goes over time by few minutes during most classes, so you just have to get up and leave.

If you take this class most likely you're going to fail. He just rambles and rambles on about childhood. you hardly uses the book. so u have to pay attention to what he says cuz it doenst come from the book.

Comment:

He just talks on and on about his past experiments with monkeys and migratory habits of birds. Hardly anything he says in the class is test worthy. he still tests over things he thought he covered. He knows his stuff he just cant stay on topic long enough to give you any information. He should retire. The whole class is lost he doesn’t even notice

Mr. **** is a nice guy but his class is really hard. I made a low C on every test. I would not take this class if you are trying to keep your GPA up.

Comment:

don't recommend him at all. he would spend all class rambling about pointless subjects, never actually discussing anything related to the class. his tests were straight from the text book, class was a waste, and he had an attendance policy. i spent his classes in the back row reading a non-class book.

Comment:

Boring, talks trhough his teeth. I would not reccommend him. Goes off on tangents, does not stick to material in book. Take good notes, he asks lecture questions as well as book questions on the test. Best tip: Stay Awake.

Comment:

Doesn't provide notes, speaks in monotone w/ teeth clamped together & often gets off subject. His tests are not that hard if you study WELL. Tip: go to the book website & print out chapt outlines. Fill them in & study those. I did this & went from making F's on the tests to making B's! The papers are graded easily, the class is just a REALLY boring

Comment:

Hes a nice man but he is too smart to be teaching. His tests cover nothing from the lectures, but he gives extra credit; DO IT! I failed every test except one which I made a 73 but because I did the extra credit I ended up passing the class with a B. Go to class everyday bc he gives extra credit just for going. WARNING... BORING

Comment:

I really enjoyed his class. Even though he may be a little boring at times, he's extremely smart and really cares about his students. As long as you go to class, take notes, skim the chapters he tells you, and take the time to care you'll do just fine.

Comment:

i think alot of people are kind of turned off by him because he can be a little boring but he is extremely brilliant (one of the smartest men i have ever met) he also has some really great stories. i would strongly recommend reading from the book if you take him. read the chapters in the syllabus.

Comment:

don't take him. he will bring down your gpa. his test are nothing like the material he lectures about, and his study sessions never help. if you want to fall asleep and do work for other classes, then take him, otherwise save yourself the torture and failure. is studied 6 hrs for one test and failed

Comment:

He kind of rambles of subject alot. His tests doesn't always reflect what he lectures about so your best bet is to read the book. He might tell you that certain information won't be on the test and then to your surprise it ends up on the test anyway. Just know everything! Boring Lectures!!
