Comment:

Do not take, but wait this is this poor prof. last quarter teaching at osu, he was horrific, do not do one demo the whole quarter, made mistakes in his notes, exams, and grading. His notes were unclear, and almost every example he did on the board was wrong, and students found he mistakes, maybe we should be teaching him. He needs to go, bye bye

Comment:

Only helpful in office hours. notes have mistakes which only makes it more confusing. Never on time when it comes to grading or returning items as promised. "Does not live for teaching" but rarther to "Play in a band at 9pm" - quote courtesy of the man in question.

Comment:

He always talks about Desperate Housewives in class. Always gone off topic. He does make mistakes in his notes and his tests always have mistakes that always change the rule of game in getting points. (Sudden extra credits/increase the total score by proportional) He seems to make things look more difficult than the way that the textbook presents.

Comment:

Freitas was a great prof his exams were tough but fair. If you went to lecture you would know exactly what was gonna be emphasized on the midterms. He told us how many question would be coming out of each chapter for the final. If you want to learn and do well he is willing and able to teach you.

Comment:

Yeah he might have enjoyed being there but it was only to talk about his band. He wanted everyone to know everything that he knew about chem and that is a little bit extravagant. Also the mistakes made the notes hard to understand if he even attempted to make his notes possible to understand.

Comment:

He was not to bad. He really enjoys teaching, he makes lots of bad jokes, and does everything he can to help students. Everything he does is online so you really don't have to go to lecture. He did make a lot of mistakes on tests, but he would also throw out problems if they were unfair.

If you want a professor who doesn't make you memorize all of the necessary formulas and constants, take general chemistry from a different lecturer.

I liked him, he's a big Ohio State Football fan, and enjoys simple jokes and does a lot of fun demonstrations, just don't sit too close to the front.
