Comment:

Bob is a great lecturer. He is very thorough and makes sure to explain each aspect of his lecture. At the beginning of each class, he briefly reviews the previous class and picks up right from where he left off. He is very accessible outside of class. He does not give homework, you don't necessarily need the textbook, and he only gives exams.

I took several Bob's classes and all of them were AMAZING! Bob explains definitions clearly, and in a way I will never forget. He is always there for his students! I graduated and miss all his lectures.

Comment:

He's super adorable in his Cosby sweaters and chalk and totally awkward, but a genius. If you suck at math or econ, take his class, he will teach you everything. I didn't read, I just took notes and did great. If you're a math/econ god, you could just show up for the two tests and probably get an A. Only two assignments, no attendance policy.

I have taken all the classes that bob offers. He is a terrific teacher and can explain really well. He makes everything easy to understand and even gives solved problem sets and exam answers for students to practice. Where else do u get so much help from a professor?

Comment:

Bob is terrible. He's a great guy, puts in a lot of work for his classes but he's just terrible at teaching. I couldn't understand anything he taught me. There's just one time-proven way of beating a Bob class, get a tutor and solve 10 different past exams with him/her. That will get you an A, but don't rely on Bob.
