Comment:
Nafshun is the best chemistry 23X teacher, he's funny and makes the material easy to understand, but the CH 23X series itself is tolerable (at best). There are weeks with a bit too much homework, but it's easy if you attend class and read the textbook (not always needed). Also, the final grade is curved a decent amount. Good luck!

Hands down the best professor I have ever had the pleasure to have. He's incredibly enthusiastic about what he teaches, and I found it very easy to learn the concepts in the CH 23X series from his style of instruction. If you are a committed student, you will have no issues doing well in his class.

amazing teacher, hilarious anecdotes, going to office hours is the best thing you can do with him. Wish he taught more chem classes bc I would 100% sign up for them regardless of whether or not I needed to take it. Best teacher for chem, so much so too many kids showed up and they needed a bouncer.

Clearly the best. He made chemistry fun. The only things you think about when you take his class are: let me be done with the easy homework, and I want to see his reaction after the Beavs win/loss. If you have a chance to take this class with him, don't hesitate.

This guy is the best! I was a decent chem student in high school but was worried about how I would do at a collegiate level. He is is amazing! you get notecards and a ton of info on the tests and the tests are MC. Lectures were great to go to and he is very funny. Cares about his students and understands many people struggle with the subject

Do not take anyone other than Nafshun for Chemistry!! Students know he's the best, and often the kids who have different teachers still go to his class for lecture. He's THAT good. He's also super funny and energetic, the only teacher who's lectures I look forward to. Sign up for Richard if you can!!

Nafshun has a very energetic personality and brings lectures to life. Very accessible, qualified and simplifies complex concepts. Tests follow lectures and very similar to practice exams. Textbooks optional, however I found it to be very useful when preparing for the exams.

I took his U engage and it was a ton of fun! He checked in with students and made sure they were doing ok with their other classes and understood his class was a low priority. Was always positive and cared about his students, he frequently placed input on how to better an experiment and how to make it work in a certain setting. Great guy!

Super great professor. Made Chemistry actually fun and interesting. If attend class every time and do the homework, you'll be able to pass easily with at least a B in the class.

Nafshun is honestly my favorite teacher and he really know what he is talking about. He also makes sure that everyone knows the concept by asking if people have questions in each lesson.
