Comment:

Mr. Colaneri is one of the greatest professors I have ever taken. Very captivating during his lectures, and explicit in what he expects you to know for tests. He is very dedicated to seeing his students succeed. He also knows how to crack a good joke in class to keep you going. Plus he gives you something good to look at in the lecture and lab ;).

Comment:

This professor was the best. He gave all of the questions that were going to be on the midterm and final. Students didn't come to class but going is important to hand in all of the homework assignments that were give biweekly. I would highly recommend if you're bad at science.

This professor is great, he makes you like physics and he's incredibly helpful. I would have not gotten an A if I didn't take his class. Just like any other class you have to do the work, he accepts assignments late and is very fair. Take him of you need/want to take physics and you won't be disappointed. This guy should get paid a ton more!!!!!

Comment:

Took him for "Physical Science". It was a lot to cover in that class but he covered it really good. Took quizes after the end of every chapter which made exams preparation easy. He took 2 extra quizes and one exam (he took 3 exams and dropped the lowest one)o that students may catch up! I was worried in the beginning but got an A in the end.

This is a really hard course, but Dr.C is a great teacher. Extremely helpful during office hours and outside office hours. He doesn't have favorites and treat everyone equally. Take his class if you can and make sure you do all assigned work.

Professor Colaneri is an awesome teacher! He is super nice and takes time to explain everything to you until you understand it. He tries to keep things interesting and makes tons of jokes to break up the monotony of lectures. The hw is really easy and mostly from his lectures, and his tests are really similar to the hw so take the time to do it!

He is a great professor. You just have to get used to him speaking fast. He realizes he does it and normally catches himself. He is genuine, sweet, and cares about his students. His explanations are clear and he is always willing to help. He is one of the professors I will miss from OW.

Dr. Colaneri is a great teacher and a great guy. He is very helpful and understanding and makes the class very enjoyable. I wish all professors were as great as him. I learned more physics in his class the first week than I did a whole semester at my other school.
