Fantastic Prof! Loves teaching and makes things so understandable. He was better than the other 2 profs, and made class super fun and an easy environment to learn in. Makes connections to REAL life so stuff makes sense!

Comment:

He is a really enjoyable prof who's music really makes the class interesting. One thing to note though is that he talks really fast and sometimes its hard to pay attention ot him and his notes at the same time. However, he made the material very interesting and understandable despite those difficulties,

One of the best profs I've ever had- very helpful, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. He also encourages supported, independent work, which is unfortunately rare in science classes.

This guys enthusiasm is infective. He is exuberant and knowledgeable, and his teaching style is clear and straightfoward. Wish all profs could be this good!

Comment:

A great prof, with a great attitude. I wish he taught all of 1030, because he seems to understand Keenlyside's stuff better than she does. There was overlap in the modules and I wouldn't have understood it if only she had taught it. His music really sets the tone, and lecture is always enlightening.

Best Class!! (if you like plants) Greenwood is a great teacher; some people can find him intimidating though. He comes to every lab and helps you out; he really wants people to learn. Labs compliment the course material perfectly!

Comment:

Anybody who plays music and in other ways establishes such a great relationship with his students is a great prof. Plus, he uses great analogies and stories to explain concepts. However, make sure you *memorize* the text book readings when you prepare for his exams...

He's great! He made plants interesting! Serious! He is the first bio prof here that had a pulse. He played music, related things to real life and was very clear about the theory. I miss those classes!

He used a lot of analogies and examples in order to help us understand the subject matter. Playing music at the beginning of every lecture put me in a better mood so I was able to learn better. Good prof.
