Comment:

I believe that Dizio is a really great teacher when there is a small classroom environment. His powerpoints are more visual based than anything else. His classes are definitely challenging and you have to pay attention at all times to understand what it going on. The second you look down at your phone or computer, you may get lost.

Comment:

Truly an awful teacher. He is clearly very passionate about statistics, but is a poor teacher who has trouble keeping his students engaged. He also mumbles a lot and is not always clear. Needs to use powerpoints more efficiently.

Comment:

Professor Dizio means well and intends for his students to learn the course material. However, his powerpoints are unclear and vague, over-worded. There is the suggestion that we should read the book to ace the class, but only pieces are used and is almost as hard as Dizio to understand.

Comment:

Professor DiZio means well, and cares about his students, but isn't well-equipped to teach the material or answer questions. He's very nice, but ultimately bumbling and gets distracted easily. He makes consistent errors while teaching and questions must be yes or no to be answered effectively at all. I did not feel like his lectures were helpful.

Comment:

Doesn't know how to lecture, I relied entirely on the book to understand the information Bumbling and out of touch overall. He wants to help but doesn't understand what's needed. Doesn't know when to move on or how to communicate what we need to know

Very knowledgable but sometimes misses the point and beats a dead horse. But most of his concrete stuff is very very interesting.

he makes statistics seem easy and exciting. His lectures are clear. I also took NPSY Motor control class with him, he was a great teacher. His exams are hard though he does give you questions in advance.He is a great guy, he trully cares about students.
